Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although cerebrovascular disease is one of the major causes of death in Japan, the understanding of pathology and development of the therapeutic agents for this disease have been craving. In this study, we aim to develop new drug evaluation methods that contribute to the development of therapeutic drugs using zebrafish. Hypoxia-reoxygenation treatment induced ischemia-reperfusion in the brain of zebrafish larvae. Cell death in both head and trunk was induced by hypoxia-reoxygenation treatment. These results suggest that hypoxia-reoxygenation induces ischemia-reperfusion and cell death in zebrafish brain.
