Abstract:Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) represent a significant global health challenge, characterized by physical and neurodevelopmental abnormalities in offspring resulting from prenatal alcohol exposure. This study aims to utilize the zebrafish to examine the phenotypic, behavioral, and molecular changes associated with embryonic ethanol exposure, providing a model for human FASD conditions. Our study exposed zebrafish embryos to 0.5% ethanol during a critical developmental window (2-24 hours post-fertiliza… Show more
