Abstract:Cartilaginous fishes have various unique physiological features such as cartilaginous skeletons and a urea-based osmoregulation strategy for adaptation to their marine environment. Also, because they are considered a sister group of bony vertebrates, understanding their unique features is important from an evolutionary perspective. However, experimental approaches are limited in cartilaginous fishes. Particularly, genetic engineering, which can analyze gene functions as well as cellular behavior, has not been … Show more
