Effects of temperature to the liver transcriptome in the hybrid puffer fish (Takifugu rubripes ♀ × Takifugu obscurus ♂)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part D: Genomics and Proteomics
Water temperature exerts a crucial impact on the growth and development of fish. Hybrids may integrate the superior traits of their parents, thereby leading to higher economic benefits. Takifugu rubripes and T. obscurus are two important economic species in Asia. Here, to investigated the effect of temperature on the hybrid puffer larvae (T. rubripes ♀

Identification and functional characterization of three irf7 transcript variants in obscure puffer (Takifugu obscurus)

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2021
Interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) is a key mediator in regulating the type Ι IFN response. Although irf7 has been identified in more than twenty fish species, alternative splicing has not been found in teleost irf7. Alternative splicing is an important mechanism expanding the transcriptomic and proteomic diversity, and has been found in several IRF

Salinity changes in the anadromous river pufferfish, Takifugu obscurus, mediate gene regulation

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 2013
This study aimed to better understand the hydromineral regulatory response of the anadromous river pufferfish, Takifugu obscurus, to salinity changes through real-time RT-PCR. After abrupt transfer from 30 or 5 psu to 5 or 30 psu, respectively, we analyzed the mRNA expression of Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase, prolactin receptor, and aquaporin from osmoregulatory ...

[Functional morphology of puffing behavior in pufferfish (Takifugu obscurus)].

Dong wu xue yan jiu = Zoological research, 2011
As a defensive behavior of escaping from the predators, sudden inflating ("puffing") has been found in all members of the pufferfish sister taxa Diodontidae and Tetraodontidae. However, the mechanism of inflation is largely unknown. To further understand the inflation behavior of Tetraodontidae, morphological dissection, X-ray and staining methods were

Non-volatile taste active compounds and umami evaluation in two aquacultured pufferfish (Takifugu obscurus and Takifugu rubripes)

Food Bioscience, 2019
Abstract Takifugu is famous for its delicious taste and consumption is increasing since eating pufferfish became legal in China in 2016. Boiled and steamed T. obscurus and T. rubripes were analyzed for their taste compounds including proximate compositions, inorganic ions, free amino acids, 5′-nucleotides and organic acids.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the anadromous river pufferfish,Takifugu obscurus(Tetraodontiformes:Tetraodontidae)

Mitochondrial DNA, 2013
The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced from the anadromous river pufferfish, Takifugu obscurus. The genome sequence was 16,446 bp in size, and the gene order and contents were identical with those of congeneric species in the genus Takifugu.

Molecular cloning and functional characterization of eight galectin genes from Takifugu obscurus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology
Galectins are a family of animal lectins involved in the immune response against pathogens. However, the roles of fish galectins during pathogen infection require comprehensive studies. In the present research, eight different galectin genes from Takifugu obscurus (named ToGalec1-8) were identified and characterized. ToGalec1-8 encoded proteins of 240,

Identification and characterization of 16 tripartite motif-containing proteins from Takifugu obscurus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology
Tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) proteins play important roles in apoptosis, development, autophagy, and innate immunity in vertebrates. In this study, a total of 16 TRIM genes were cloned and identified from obscure puffer Takifugu obscurus. Multiple alignment results showed that most of the deduced ToTRIM proteins contained three typical motifs, a ...

Antioxidant response to ZnO nanoparticles in juvenile Takifugu obscurus: protective effects of salinity

Ecotoxicology
The extensive utilization of Zinc Oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) has garnered significant attention due to their detrimental impacts on ecosystem. Unfortunately, ecotoxicity of ZnO NPs in coastal waters with fluctuating salinity has been disregarded.
