The ZF-CANCER project utilizes zebrafish as a model to study cancer mechanisms and develop new anticancer drugs. By implanting human and zebrafish cancer cells into zebrafish embryos, the project aims to identify novel drug targets and accelerate drug screening processes using advanced imaging techniques.
Recently the zebrafish has emerged as a new important system for cancer research because the zebrafish genome contains all orthologs of human oncogenes and forms tumors with similar histopathological and gene profiling features as human tumors.
The zebrafish provides an in vivo vertebrate model for identifying novel mechanisms of cancer progression and for development of new anticancer compounds in a time- and cost-effective manner.
The ZF-CANCER project aims to develop high-throughput bioassay…
