Molecular and expression characterization of two somatostatin genes in the Chinese sturgeon, Acipenser sinensis

open access: yesComparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A, Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2009
Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) is a rare and endangered species and also an important resource for the sturgeon aquaculture industry. SMART cDNA was synthesized from the hypothalamus of Chinese sturgeon, and the full-length cDNAs of two somatostatin (SS) genes were cloned and sequenced.

Neuropeptides and hormones in hypothalamus-pituitary axis of Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis)

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2023
The hypothalamus and pituitary serve as important neuroendocrine center, which is able to secrete a variety of neuropeptides and hormones to participate in the regulation of reproduction, growth, stress and feeding in fish. Chinese sturgeon is a basal vertebrate lineage fish with a special evolutionary status, but the information on its neuroendocrine ...

Ontogenetic Behavior and Migration of Chinese Sturgeon, Acipenser sinensis

open access: yesEnvironmental Biology of Fishes, 2002
The Chinese sturgeon, Acipenser sinensis, is an anadromous protected species that presently only spawns in the Yangtze River. Using laboratory experiments, we examined the behavioral preference of young Chinese sturgeon to physical habitat (water depth, illumination intensity, substrate color, and cover) and monitored their downstream migration ...

Extraction, purification and characterisation of chondroitin sulfate in Chinese sturgeon cartilage

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2013
AbstractBACKGROUNDChinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis), a rare species, is an important fishery resource in China. To save this species from overfishing, damming and pollution, artificial propagation has been developed rapidly in recent years. However, the cartilage from Chinese sturgeon, which contains an abundance of chondroitin sulfate (CS), is ...

Two-dimensional habitat modeling of Chinese sturgeon spawning sites

Ecological Modelling, 2010
Abstract Since the construction of the Gezhouba Dam in the 1980s, the number of Chinese sturgeon in the Yangtze River has been rapidly declining. The Gezhouba Dam has cutoff the migration path of these sturgeon, resulting in an overall reduction of suitable sturgeon habitat.

Discriminating Dabry’s sturgeon (Acipenser dabryanus) and Chinese sturgeon (A. sinensis) based on DNA barcode and six nuclear markers

Hydrobiologia, 2015
Both Dabry’s sturgeon (Acipenser dabryanus) and Chinese sturgeon (A. sinensis) are rare fish and listed as first class protected animals in China. Nowadays, an artificial release program has been established as a main way to maintain and restore their wild populations.

The bedform morphology of Chinese sturgeon spawning sites in the Yangtze River

International Journal of Sediment Research, 2013
Quantitative measures of the relationships between channel morphology and the habitat use of Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) can help management and regulatory agencies to quantify potential spawning habitats and develop recovery goals in view of the decreasing area of sturgeon spawning habitat. This study determined the specific bedform types at

Comparation of the structural characteristics and biological activities of chondroitin sulfates extracted from notochord and backbone of Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis)

open access: yesCarbohydrate Research, 2022
To compare the structural properties and biological activities of chondroitin sulfate (CS) in two different tissues of Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) and Russian sturgeon (Acipenser gueldenstaedti), we extracted their backbone cartilage CS (Cart ...
