“…Furthermore, robust anxiogenic endocrine and genomic responses, similar to those seen in humans (Schulkin et al 1998; Yehuda et al 1993; Boulom et al 2002; Zhang et al 1992) and rodents (Yau et al 1997; Roy et al 2001; Hale et al 2008; Kung et al 2010), have also been established in zebrafish (Cachat et al 2010a; Williams et al 2011 (in press); Wong et al 2010a; Baraban et al 2005; Barcellos et al 2007). Additionally, like rodents (Dvorkin et al 2008; Eilam and Golani 1989), fish form spatial memories (Burt de Perera 2004b; Riedel 1998), and use them to orient in novel environments, establishing “safe zones” (homebases) where they frequently dwell and return to (Stewart et al 2010c; Stewart et al 2010d; Rosemberg et al 2011). Moreover, zebrafish also display a robust habituation responses (Wong et al 2010b), which in addition to cognitive map formation (O’keefe 1978), may represent deep neurobiological constructs, such as adaptive processing of sensory information (Eisenstein and Eisenstein 2006).…”
