Imaging cilia in zebrafish
KM Jaffe, SY Thiberge, ME Bisher, RD Burdine - Methods in cell biology, 2010 - Elsevier
Research focused on cilia as extremely important cellular organelles has flourished in
recent years. A thorough understanding of cilia regulation and function is critical, as
disruptions of cilia structure and/or function have been linked to numerous human diseases
and disorders. The tropical freshwater zebrafish is an excellent model organism in which to
study cilia structure and function. We can readily image cilia and their motility in embryonic
structures including Kupffer's vesicle during somite stages and the pronephros from 1 day …
