Tissue section of a zebrafish spinal cord in the process of regeneration after complete transection injury. Glial cells are indicated in red using an antibody against glial fibrillary acidic protein. Neuronal cells are indicated in green using an antibody against acetylated α-tubulin protein. Zebrafish provide a model to inform methodologies for spinal cord regeneration in humans. T
