Analysis of circRNA and miRNA expression profiles in IGF3-induced ovarian maturation in spotted scat (Scatophagus argus) [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factor 3 (IGF3) induces ovarian maturation in teleosts; however, research on its molecular regulatory mechanism remains deficient. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in various biological processes, including

A Novel igf3 Gene in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio): Evidence for Its Role in Regulating Gonadal Development [PDF]
Since the insulin-like growth factor 3 (igf3) gene was recently discovered in fish ovary, its function in the gonads has received much attention. In this study, we isolated two igf3 subtypes from common carp (Cyprinus carpio), which comprised full-length

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Regulates igfbp Gene Expression Directly or via Downstream Effectors to Modulate Igf3 Effects on Zebrafish Spermatogenesis [PDF]
Previous work showed that pharmacological inactivation of Igf-binding proteins (Igfbps), modulators of Igf activity, resulted in an excessive differentiation of type A undifferentiated (Aund) spermatogonia in zebrafish testis in tissue culture when Fsh ...

Polymorphism Study of vtg1 and igf3 Genes from Osteochilus vittatus and Cyprinus carpio as Candidate Molecular Markers for Egg-Quality Selection [PDF]
The bonylip barb (Osteochilus vittatus) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) are major freshwater aquaculture species in Indonesia; however, inconsistent egg quality remains a critical constraint to hatchery performance and seed reliability.

Elevated water temperature in combination with an increase in daylength stimulate a synchronized onset of spermatogenesis in male Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, L.) postsmolts [PDF]
Male postsmolt maturation (“jacking”) is undesired in Atlantic salmon aquaculture due to economic and welfare impacts. Unfortunately, incidence of jacking has increased linked to intensive rearing conditions.

Sex blind: bridging the gap between drug exposure and sex-related gene expression in Danio rerio using next-generation sequencing (NGS) data and a literature review to find the missing links in pharmaceutical and environmental toxicology studies [PDF]
The sex of both humans and Danio rerio has previously been shown to affect the way individuals respond to drug exposure. Genes which allow identification of sex in juvenile zebrafish show potential to reveal these confounding variables between sex in ...

Sexual dimorphic effects of igf1 deficiency on metabolism in zebrafish [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) is an essential effector of the growth hormone (GH)/IGF1 axis for somatic growth regulation in mammals. However, its functions have not been thoroughly investigated in zebrafish in vivo.

Impact of germ cell ablation on the activation of the brain-pituitary-gonadal axis in precocious Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) males. [PDF]
Abstract The germ cells are essential for sexual reproduction by giving rise to the gametes, but the importance of germ cells for gonadal somatic functions varies among vertebrates. The RNA‐binding dead end (Dnd) protein is necessary for the specification and migration of primordial germ cells to the future reproductive organs.

Gene expression analyses of GH/IGF axis in triploid crucian carp with growth heterosis [PDF]
Hybridization and polyploid breeding are the main approaches used to obtain new aquaculture varieties. Allotriploid crucian carp (3n) with rapid growth performance was generated by mating red crucian carp (RCC) with allotetraploids (4n).
