Urotensin-I suppresses the hypothalamo-hypophyseal-ovarian axis in the Mozambique tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus

Urotensin-I (UI) is a peptide belonging to the corticotropin-releasing hormone family, produced in the urophysis of teleosts. This investigation was undertaken to examine the effect of UI on the hypothalamo-hypophyseal-ovarian...

Involvement of gonadal soma-derived factor in the reproduction of teleosts

Gonadal soma-derived factor (Gsdf) is a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily and a teleost-specific gene. Early studies suggested that Gsdf promotes spermatogonial proliferation;...

The signal-transduction pathways of the peripheral olfactory organ and their impairment in vertebrates

Animals rely on olfaction to detect and process invaluable chemical information about their environment. For olfaction to function, chemicals must first be detected, which leads to the activation of...

Medaka factor in the germline alpha (figα) is indispensable for oogenesis but not for gonadal sex differentiation

A basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, figα, is one of the earliest marker genes of oocyte differentiation in vertebrates. In the present study, we made figα knockout medaka by CRISPR/Cas9,...

Impact of Metabolic disrupting chemicals on redox homeostasis, energy sensors, receptor modulation, and hormone metabolism: A comparative account in Teleost and mammalian model organisms

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) may mimic the endogenous neuroendocrine and endocrine messengers and interfere with developmental, reproductive, immune, metabolic and other physiological functions....

Luminous fishes: Endocrine and neuronal regulation of bioluminescence

Bioluminescence is the ability of organisms to emit their own light which can be self-produced in light organs by photogenic cells (photocytes) or symbiotically by bearing cultures of luminous bacteria....

Neuroendocrine regulation of reproduction in fish – Mini review

This review highlights the recent developments regarding neuroendocrine mechanisms controlling teleost reproduction. In teleosts, the pituitary gland receives major neuronal innervations from Gnrh neurons...

Understanding neuroendocrine regulatory pathways of sexual behavior in teleosts

The main neuroendocrine pathways of induction of reproductive behavior in fish are elucidated. 17α, 20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17,20β-DHP), an oocyte maturation-inducing hormone, was found to act...

New insights into spexin and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) in regulating fish reproduction

Reproduction is one of the most crucial physiological processes for the continuation of the generation of any species. Teleost are one of the most divergent aquatic species. The reproductive neuro-endocrine...
