Rotenone Neurotoxicity Causes Dopamine Neuron Loss in Zebrafish

ABSTRACT: Objectives: We sought to determine whether rotenone, a commonly used pesticide, exhibits neurotoxicity in zebrafish by causing dopamine neuron loss through rotenone-induced oxidative damage. Methods: We exposed transgenic zebrafish embryos expressing green fluorescent protein under the con...
