Zebrafish Mcad Antibody / Acadm

In zebrafish (Danio rerio), MCAD is highly conserved and functionally analogous to its mammalian counterparts, making it an ideal model for studying fatty acid metabolism and mitochondrial energy homeostasis in vertebrates. Zebrafish mcad is expressed during early development and in metabolically active tissues such as muscle, liver, and heart. Disruption of mcad function in zebrafish has been used to model human MCAD deficiency, a common inherited metabolic disorder that can lead to hypoglycemia, lethargy, and sudden infant death. Due to its evolutionary conservation and physiological relevance, zebrafish MCAD is a valuable tool for research into metabolic diseases, mitochondrial function, and energy regulation in vivo.
