Abstract:Neurodegenerative disease (NDD)is a chronic and progressive neurological disease characterized by the loss of a large number of specific neurons. It mainly includes Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Although the lesions and etiologies of different types of neurodegenerative diseases are different, delayed neurodegenerative lesions and cell loss in specific brain areas are their common characteristics. For this reason, it is collectively referred to as neurodegenerative diseases. In recent years, zebrafish have attracted increasing attention from society as a new type of model organism. Although there are some differences between zebrafish and human central nervous systems, zebrafish neural conduction systems, neuronal and glial cell types, and disease-related gene homology are very similar to those of humans. Zebrafish has been widely used in the study of neurodegenerative diseases, and some achievements have been made in this field to improve our understanding of these diseases, but because of the complexity, multi-factors and multi-gene regulation of neurodegenerative diseases, the etiology and pathogenesis of zebrafish are not clear, so the treatment of this kind of disease has always been a difficult problem. By consulting relevant literature from home and abroad in recent years, this study reviews recent advances in neurodegenerative diseases using zebrafish as a model organism.
