Oxytocin Signaling Regulates the Homeostatic Response to Cold Stress in Poikilothermic Vertebrates

A. Segev, S. Krispin, A. M. Olthof, K. Hyatt, L. Haller, A. Barki, T. Nitzan, G. Levkowitz, R. N. Kanadia, A. Cnaani, J. Biran

This study shows that oxytocin signaling actively regulates cold stress responses in poikilothermic vertebrates, contrary to the belief that their responses are passive.

Oxytocin regulation of social transmission of fear in zebrafish reveals its evolutionary conserved role in emotional contagion

I. Akinrinade, K. Kareklas, M. Gliksberg, G. Petri, G. Levkowitz, R. Oliveira

This study shows oxytocin is necessary and sufficient for social fear contagion in zebrafish, supporting its evolutionary conserved role in emotional contagion across vertebrates.

Genetic variation in the social environment affects behavioral phenotypes of oxytocin receptor mutants in zebrafish

A. R. Nunes, M. Teles, S. Anbalagan, J. Blechman, G. Levkowitz, R. F. Oliveira

This study shows that the social environment's genetic composition interacts with oxytocin receptor genotype to influence social behavior in zebrafish.

Splice-specific deficiency of the PTSD-associated gene PAC1 leads to a paradoxical age-dependent stress behavior

J. Biran, M. Gliksberg, I. Shirat, A. Swaminathan, T. Levitas-Djerbi, L. Appelbaum, G. Levkowitz

This study shows that splice-specific deficiency of PAC1 in zebrafish leads to age-dependent changes in stress behavior, with increased anxiety in larvae and resilience in adults.

Development of High-Order Organization of Guanine-Based Reflectors Underlies the Dual Functionality of the Zebrafish Iris

D. Gur, J.-D. Nicolas, V. Brumfeld, O. Bar-Elli, D. Oron, G. Levkowitz

This study investigates the development of a high-order organization of guanine-based reflectors in zebrafish irises, revealing how this structure enables dual functionality as a light barrier and camouflage.
