Resumo(s)

In the last decade, fish has emerged as an important organism for studies on skeletal development in vertebrates, and evidence has been accumulated showing that zebrafish is a suitable system to perform phenotype-based drug screens. The ability to regenerate epidermal injuries is a general feature of most organisms yet only a few can fully regenerate severed appendages comprising several different tissues. Zebrafish is one of the most used models for regeneration studies, creating a powerful tool to study de novo bone formation without affecting vital development processes.
