Anxiety-related platform in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae: An integrated analysis of behavioural and molecular assay in drug screening research
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy June 17, 2026 Małgorzata Potoczna, Natalia Kasica, Małgorzata Chmielewska-Krzesińska et al.
Zebrafish larvae are increasingly used in behavioural pharmacology because of their translational relevance and suitability for anxiety- and stress-related studies. However, it remains unclear whether commonly used behavioural assays and molecular stress markers provide convergent evidence of anxiolytic-like drug activity. This study therefore aimed not to validate a single predictive screening...
