Comparative expression of androgen receptor in gonads and brain during different stages of gonadal development in Cirrhinus mrigala
نویسنده
چکیده
Androgens are necessary for normal male phenotype expression, including the initiation and maintenance of spermatogenesis. Many physiological actions of androgens are mediated by the androgen receptor (AR), a member of the nuclear receptor super family. In the present study focused to identify the expression of AR in the gonads and brain of Cirrhinus mrigala. The gene specific primers were used to find out the genes in the brain and gonads of an Indian major carp, C. mrigala. Present finding shows the variations of expression of AR receptor mRNA levels in gonads and brain of this fishes. In the present results suggest the gene expression is sex specifically varied in different developmental stages of gonads in the teleosts fish C. mrigala.

The germ cell nuclear factor (GCNF) is a member of the nuclear receptor super family of transcription factors. GCNF expression during gastrulation and neurulation is critical for normal embryogenesis in mice. GCNF represses expression of the POU domain transcription factor Oct4 during mouse post-implantation development in vivo. Oct4 is thus down-regulated during female gonadal development, whe...

Metals are the major pollutants in aquatic environment. A lot of research literature is available globally about accumulation of heavy metals in aquatic ecosystems as well as in different body organs of aquatic animals, especially fish. Heavy metals mainly generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) in aquatic animals that lead to oxidative stress production. ROS cause oxidative damage to different ...
