Environmentally relevant concentrations of 17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) interfere with the growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I system in developing bony fish.
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether effects of environmental estrogens on fish growth and reproduction may be mediated via modulating the growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) system. To this end, developing male and female monosex populations of tilapia were exposed to 17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) at 5 and 25 ng EE2/l water from 10-day postfertilization (DPF) unt...

متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I gene polymorphism associated with growth traits in beluga (Huso huso) fish
The aim of the present study was to detect polymorphism in Insulin like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene of beluga (Huso huso) fish using PCR-SSCP technique and also investigation of its association with growth traits (condition factor, body length and weight). A total of 150 specimens of beluga were randomly selected and DNA was isolated from caudal fin using modified salting out method. Then two ...

متن کاملThe Insulin-Like Growth Factor I (IGF-I) Within the Bony Fish Pituitary: New Morphofunctional and Phylogenetic Aspects
IGF-I is a major hormonal regulator of differentiation, growth, proliferation, and development. It is mainly produced in the liver, the principal source of endocrine IGF-I. The main stimulus for synthesis and release of liver IGF-I is growth hormone (GH) from the anterior pituitary, and IGF-I specifically inhibits GH gene transcription and secretion via a negative feedback mechanism. As shown f...
