Zebrafish Embryos Expose Cisplatin's Kidney Damage Pathway
Traditional animal experiments often rely on mice and rabbits, but they often spark ethical controversy. Distinguished Professor Li-Yih Lin of the Department of Life Science at National Taiwan Normal University leads a research team that makes effective use of a zebrafish embryo model to successfully elucidate the nephrotoxic mechanism of the chemotherapeutic drug, cisplatin. This work has not only opened up a new direction for developing protective drugs that counter nephrotoxicity, but also highlights the innovative value of alternatives to conventional laboratory animals, which is aligned with international standards that increasingly emphasize animal welfare.
