Preparation of two recombinant crustacean hyperglycemic hormones from the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, and their hyperglycemic activities.
Crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) is released from the X-organ/sinus gland complex located in the eyestalks, and regulates glucose levels in the hemolymph. In the giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii), two cDNAs encoding different CHH molecules were previously cloned by other workers. One of these (Mar-CHH-2) was expressed only in the eyestalks, whereas the other (Mar-CHH-L) w...

متن کاملStarvation Promotes Autophagy-Associated Maturation of the Ovary in the Giant Freshwater Prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii
Limitation of food availability (starvation) is known to influence the reproductive ability of animals. Autophagy is a lysosomal driven degradation process that protects the cell under metabolic stress conditions, such as during nutrient shortage. Whether, and how starvation-induced autophagy impacts on the maturation and function of reproductive organs in animals are still open questions. In t...
متن کاملGenetic Inheritance of Female and Male Morphotypes in Giant Freshwater Prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii
Giant freshwater prawn (GFP) Macrobrachium rosenbergii is unique with males categorized in five different morphotypes (small claw, orange claw, blue claw, old blue claw and no claw males) and females in three reproductive statuses (mature ovary, berried and spawned females). In the present study we examined genetic inheritance of female and male morphotypes, their body weights and genetic assoc...
