Chloride cells and the hormonal control of teleost fish osmoregulation.
Teleost fish osmoregulation is largely the result of integrated transport activities of the gill, gut and renal system. The basic 'epithelial fabric' in each of these tissues is adapted to provide the appropriate transport mechanisms depending upon whether the fish is in fresh water or sea water. Net NaCl transport by the branchial epithelium reverses direction when euryhaline species migrate b...

متن کاملEndocrine Control of Osmoregulation in Teleost Fish1
SYNOPSIS. As the primary link between environmental change and physiological response, the neuroendocrine system is a critical part of osmoregulatory adaptations. Cortisol has been viewed as ‘the’ seawater-adapting hormone in fish and prolactin as ‘the’ fresh water adapting hormone. Recent evidence indicates that the growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor I axis is also important in seawater...
متن کاملVertebrate osmoregulation: a student laboratory exercise using teleost fish.
Here, we describe a laboratory experiment as part of an upper-level vertebrate physiology course for biology majors to investigate the physiological response of vertebrates to osmoregulatory challenges. The experiment involves measuring plasma osmolality and Na+-K+-ATPase activity in gill tissue of teleost fish acclimated to water of differing salinity. We describe results obtained using the wi...

Evans DH. Teleost fish osmoregulation: what have we learned since August Krogh, Homer Smith, and Ancel Keys. Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 295: R704– R713, 2008. First published June 4, 2008; doi:10.1152/ajpregu.90337.2008.—In the 1930s, August Krogh, Homer Smith, and Ancel Keys knew that teleost fishes were hyperosmotic to fresh water and hyposmotic to seawater, and, therefore, they w...
