Intestinal gene expression in heat-stressed broilers selected for high water efficiency [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyBackgroundThe major goal of this study was to compare mRNA expression associated with water homeostasis in intestines of high water efficient (HWE) broilers to expression in unselected Modern Random Bred (MRB) broilers under thermoneutral (TN) and heat ...

Integrated Role of Arginine Vasotocin in the Control of Spermatogenesis in Zebrafish. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciArginine vasotocin (AVT) has recently emerged as a local regulator of testicular function in fish. Using ex vivo culture system, it was demonstrated that AVT directly stimulates androgen-dependent basal spermatogenesis in zebrafish. In the presence of gonadotropins, AVT enhanced FSH-induced development of early phases of spermatogonial proliferation ...

Nonapeptide molecular evolution during the adaptive radiation of Tanganyika cichlids. [PDF]
J NeuroendocrinolAbstract Oxytocin (OT) and vasotocin (VT) are evolutionarily conserved nonapeptides that regulate a wide range of physiological and behavioral processes in vertebrates. Their receptor families have undergone gene duplications that facilitated functional diversification throughout vertebrate evolution.

Reproductive roles of the vasopressin/oxytocin neuropeptide family in teleost fishes
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 The vertebrate nonapeptide families arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OXT) are considered to have evolved from a single vasopressin-like peptide present in invertebrates and termed arginine vasotocin in early vertebrate evolution.

Neurohypophysial Hormones Regulate Amphibious Behaviour in the Mudskipper Goby. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The neurohypophysial hormones, arginine vasotocin and isotocin, regulate both hydromineral balance and social behaviors in fish. In the amphibious mudskipper, Periophthalmus modestus, we previously found arginine-vasotocin-specific regulation of ...

High hydrostatic pressure effects on arginine vasotocin levels in fish
Aquatic Biology, 2020 The present study investigates the response of the hormone arginine vasotocin (AVT), the non-mammalian antidiuretic hormone, to the acclimation of fish to high hydrostatic pressure (5.1 MPa). Two fish species with different osmoregulatory strategies, the
