DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Understanding the mechanisms involved in liver development is essential for answering how the liver acquires its physiological function. In addition, understanding the molecular events controlling the development of the embryonic as well as adult liver has the promise of providing a variety of therapeutic tools useful in clinical settings aimed at regulating liver growth and regeneration. This proposal aims at understanding the mechanisms controlling liver development using zebrafish as a model system.

描述（由申请人提供）： 了解肝发育中涉及的机制对于回答肝脏如何获得其生理功能至关重要。此外，了解控制胚胎发展和成年肝脏发展的分子事件也有望提供各种用于调节肝脏生长和再生的临床环境中有用的治疗工具。该建议旨在了解使用斑马鱼作为模型系统控制肝脏发育的机制。
