A new animal model can be used to “dissect” the inflammatory response to infection.

The hormone leptin regulates glucose balance, but not fat stores, in zebrafish.

Actin and microtubule cytoskeletons are coordinated during cytokinesis – the process that separates one cell into two and is linked to events underlying cancer.
