Replacement of mitochondrion-rich cells during regeneration of the gills and opercular epithelium in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

We report regeneration of the operculum and proliferation of MRCs in regenerating tissue in adult zebrafish. These studies may contribute to our understanding of how MRC populations are regulated during the regenerative process, which may occur following exposure to environmental stressors, chemical toxicity or disease.PMID:34091038 | DOI:10.1016/j.acthis.2021.151738
