Research progress on modeling methods and evaluation indexes of kidney injury in zebrafish / 中国比较医学杂志

Kidneys filter bloodand regulate fluid and electrolyte balances.However,the kidney is susceptible to toxicity of various compounds,Resulting in renal damage.Hence,prevention and treatment of renal injury is a hot research topic.Zebrafish is an ideal animal model,because it is closely related to humans in terms of morphology,physiology,and kidney functions and its response to compounds.In this article,we review the method and evaluation indexes of zebrafish kidney injury modeling.
