Excess glucose or fat differentially affects metabolism and appetite-related gene expression during zebrafish embryogenesis

Summary: Zebrafish embryos use their yolk sac reserve as the sole nutrient source during embryogenesis. The two main forms of energy fuel can be found in the form of glucose or fat.
