e172 Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol October 2018 and functions, angiogenesis, and lymphangiogenesis. These articles studied zebrafish at stages during embryonic or larval development when the sex cannot be identified. Sex determination is more complicated compared with mammalian organisms because zebrafish do not have sex chromosomes. 339,340 However, there are multiple features that can help identify male and female zebrafish at the adult stage. Because sexual dimorphism has been noted in zebrafish (in a few examples341–344), the ATVB editors encourage authors to study both sexes and provide the sex identification information if adult zebrafish are studied. If the sex cannot be identified before the adult stage, we encourage the authors to briefly state this potential limitation in the Methods section.
