Abstract excerpt
Transgenic zebrafish that express fluorophores under the control of mpeg1.1 (mpeg1) and csf1ra (c-fms) promoters have been widely used to study the dynamics and functions of mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) in larval zebrafish, unveiling crucial roles for these innate immune cells in many processes, including tissue repair. Adult zebrafish are also being increasingly used as a model organism for such studies because...
