Investigating recovery after a spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage in zebrafish larvae.

ABSTRACT: Intracerebral haemorrhage is a debilitating stroke sub-type with high morbidity and mortality rates. For survivors, rehabilitation is a long process, and with no available therapeutics to limit the immediate pathophysiology of the haemorrhage, recovery is dependent on individual neuroplasticity. We have previously shown that zebrafish larvae can be used to model spontaneous brain haemorrhage. Zebrafish exhibit innate recovery mechanisms and are often used as a model system for investigation into regeneration after injury, including injury to the nervous system. Here, we investigate the spontaneous and immediate recovery in zebrafish larvae following an intracerebral haemorrhage at 2 days post-fertilisation, during pre-protected stages and over the first 3 weeks of life. We have shown that
