  • Leukocyte transendothelial migration (TEM) is important for inflammation and involves white blood cells changing shape to move through blood vessel walls.
  • Two proteins, ezrin and moesin, help these cells change shape, but they have different roles during this process.
  • Blocking moesin affects how these cells move, but knocking down ezrin makes it really hard for white blood cells to reach the site of inflammation, showing how crucial ezrin is in helping them get there.

Similar to the zebrafish heart, hearts of neonatal, but not adult mice are capable of myocardial regeneration. We performed a proteomics analysis of adult zebrafish hearts and compared their protein expression profile to hearts from neonatal and adult mice.
