TLDR LSD1 is crucial for regenerating hair cells in zebrafish.
The study examined the role of LSD1, a histone demethylase, in the regeneration of hair cells in zebrafish, finding that LSD1 was essential for this process. It suggested that LSD1 might be involved in the epigenetic regulation during hair cell development, potentially influencing molecular pathways and genetic interactions. This research offered insights that could have been relevant for creating therapeutic strategies for hair cell loss in other species.
