Increased diameter of arteries and veins in the caudal fins of Danio rerio longfint2 fish is accompanied by fin overgrowth

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: fish contain significantly increased artery and vein diameters in the caudal fin as compared to wildtype fish. Interestingly, these changes in blood vessel size are associated with areas of fin overgrowth, consistent with a possible role for the vasculature in fin size regulation. .
