Transcriptome analysis of the zebrafish pineal gland.
The zebrafish pineal gland (epiphysis) is a site of melatonin production, contains photoreceptor cells, and functions as a circadian clock pace maker. Here, we have used microarray technology to study the zebrafish pineal transcriptome. Analysis of gene expression at three larval and two adult stages revealed a highly dynamic transcriptional profile, revealing many genes that are highly express...
متن کاملFirst transcriptome analysis of Iranian scorpion, Mesobuthus eupeus venom gland
Scorpions are generally an important source of bioactive components, including toxins and other small peptides as attractive molecules for new drug development. Mesobuthus eupeus, from medically important and widely distributed Buthidae family, is the most abundant species in Iran. Researchers are interesting on the gland of this scorpion due to the complexity of its venom. Here, we have analyz...

متن کاملThe light-induced transcriptome of the zebrafish pineal gland reveals complex regulation of the circadian clockwork by light
Light constitutes a primary signal whereby endogenous circadian clocks are synchronized ('entrained') with the day/night cycle. The molecular mechanisms underlying this vital process are known to require gene activation, yet are incompletely understood. Here, the light-induced transcriptome in the zebrafish central clock organ, the pineal gland, was characterized by messenger RNA (mRNA) sequenc...
متن کاملThe Pineal Gland
mied nearly in tbe center of the B brain in any mammal is a small white structure, sbaped somewhat like a pinecone, called tbe pineal body. ln man this organ is rougbly a quarter of an inch long and weighs about a tenth of a gram. The function of tbe pineal body has never been clearly understood. Now that tbe role of tbe tbymus gland in establishing tbe body’s immunological defenses bas been de...
