Article Synopsis
- * Research on zebrafish, a useful model for studying development, showed that when embryos were exposed to ethanol and inhibitors of its metabolism, they experienced increased pericardial edema and developmental malformations.
- * While antioxidants like glutathione and lipoic acid mitigated some effects of ethanol, they did not prevent cell death, indicating that the processes leading to pericardial edema and cell death may be different.
