[Distribution of toxicity in liver of wild pufferfish Takifugu rubripes].
Livers from wild pufferfish, Takifugu rubripes, can be described as having a smooth frontal side and an upper-region that is attached to the hepatic portal vein. Based on this description, the liver can be divided into 10 parts (L1-5 and R1-5), and in this work, the lethal potency of each part was determined by mouse bioassay. Among the raw livers from 58 individuals, all 10 parts of 16 individ...
متن کاملChange in tetrodotoxin content of the puffer fish Takifugu rubripes during seed production from fertilized eggs to juveniles.
Changes in tetrodotoxin (TTX) content of the puffer fish Takifugu rubripes during seed production were examined. Two mature female puffer fish T. rubripes (samples 1 and 2) that contained TTX were used. The toxic eggs were artificially fertilized, and hatchlings were reared in an indoor tank for 50 days and then in a netcage at sea for an additional 48 or 38 days. The TTX content of the fertili...
متن کاملSNP Discovery from Transcriptome of the Swimbladder of Takifugu rubripes
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have become the marker of choice for genome-wide association studies in many species. High-throughput sequencing of RNA was developed primarily to analyze global gene expression, while it is an efficient way to discover SNPs from the expressed genes. In this study, we conducted transcriptome sequencing of the swimbladder of Takifugu rubripes using Illumina...
متن کاملCircadian rhythm of melatonin secretion and growth-related gene expression in the tiger puffer Takifugu rubripes
Somatostatin (SS) and growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) are primary factors regulating growth hormone (GH) secretion in the pituitary. To date, it remains unknown how this rhythm is controlled endogenously, although there must be coordination of circadian manners. Melatonin was the main regulator in biological rhythms, and its secretion has fluctuation by photic information. But relations...
متن کاملRelevance of Light Spectra to Growth of the Rearing Tiger Puffer Takifugu rubripes
In fish, light (photoperiod, intensity and spectra) is main regulator in many physiological actions includinggrowth. We investigate the effect of light spectra on the somatic growth and growth-related gene expression in the rearing tiger puffer. Fish was reared under different light spectra (blue, green and red) for 8 weeks. Fish body weight and total length were promoted when reared under gree...
