Summary: To assess hyperglycemia in larval zebrafish, we analyzed the expression of genes implicated in glucose metabolism, such as insulin, insulin receptor, glucagon, and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (pepck), using quantitative PCR (qPCR). We analyzed gene expression following treatment of Tg(ins:NTRmCherry) transgenic larvae either with 0.5 % DMSO (controls) or 10 mM metronidazole (see Protocol 2) for β-cell ablation at 3 and 8 days post fertilization (dpf).
