متن کاملThe effect of aromatase inhibitor, fadrozole, on sGnRHa stimulated LH secretion in goldfish (Carassius auratus) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio).
The aromatase inhibitor, fadrozole, was applied to common carp and goldfish in order to examine its ability to increase the spontaneous and sGnRHa stimulated LH secretion. First, trials in goldfish in 2003 showed fadrozole's moderate ability to potentiate sGnRHa-stimulated LH secretion. However, this ability was much weaker than that obtained with dopamine antagonist, pimozide. There was no ovu...
