Induced Ovulation in Obscure Puffer Takifugu obscurus by Injections of LHRH-a
Aquaculture International, 2004Obscure puffer Takifugu obscurus (Abedate) is one of the several species of Takifugu genus that migrate to the Yangtze River, China during the spawning season of February to May. It is a popular fish among locals and fetches a premium price owing to its high-quality meat.

Transcriptome changes of Takifugu obscurus liver after acute exposure to phenanthrene
Physiological Genomics, 2021Phenanthrene (Phe) is a model compound in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) research. Reportedly, Phe treatment induced oxidative stress and histological disorders to Takifugu obscurus liver. In this study, to further explore the molecular responses of T.

Responses of Takifugu obscurus fertilized eggs and larvae to increased ammonia exposure
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2015Ammonia is a common toxicant in aquatic systems; this substance has become a critical threat to fish, especially in early life stages. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of unionized ammonia (NH3-N: 0, 0.068, 0.138, 0.206, 0.275, 0.343, 0.412, and 0.481 mg L(-1)) on fertilized eggs and larvae of obscure puffer Takifugu obscurus, a fish species ...

Cloning, expression, and characterization of TNFSF14 (LIGHT) gene in mefugu, Takifugu obscurus
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 2013LIGHT/TNFSF14 is a member of the tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily, which plays important roles in inflammatory and immune responses. In this study, the cDNA of mefugu (Takifugu obscures) LIGHT (designated as fLIGHT) was amplified from spleen by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.

A novel TTX-producing Aeromonas isolated from the ovary of Takifugu obscurus
Toxicon, 2010Puffer fish (Takifugu obscurus) from the Yangtze River of China were screened for tetrodotoxin-producing bacteria. An Aeromonas strain was isolated from the ovary of the puffer fish and was shown to produce tetrodotoxin; this strain was denoted Ne-1. The identity of tetrodotoxin produced by strain Ne-1 was confirmed by mouse bioassay, high performance ...

Analysis of the composition of the bacterial community in puffer fish Takifugu obscurus
Aquaculture, 2007Abstract The food chain has been postulated as one pathway for tetrodotoxin (TTX)-producing bacteria to enter into fish. However, the background composition of the bacterial community in puffer fish is unclear. Using 16S rDNA PCR denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) technology, we investigated the composition of bacterial communities in

Transcriptome analysis of Takifugu obscurus liver in response to acute retene exposure
Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A, 2020Retene (1-methyl-7-isopropyl-phenanthrene, RET) is an alkyl polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with environmental risk to aquatic animals. Takifugu obscurus is a migratory fish species with high economic and ecological value. To assess the toxic effects of RET on molecular metabolism, juvenile T.

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2020
Caspases are evolutionarily conserved proteases, which are inextricably linked with the apoptosis and immune system in mammals. However, the expression pattern and function of some caspases remain largely unknown in pufferfish. In this study, three different pufferfish caspases (caspase-2 (Pfcasp-2), caspase-3 (Pfcasp-3), and caspase-8 (Pfcasp-8)) were
