Abstract Background Transcription factors of the MIT/TFE family—mitfa, mitfb, and tfec—play essential roles in specifying pigment cells derived from neural crest cells in vertebrates. In teleosts, which possess multiple pigment cell types, these factors exhibit partially redundant but largely distinct functions across different pigment lineages.

Abstract Background The dentigerous jawbones of a 423‐million‐year‐old stem chondrichthyan (ischnacanthid acanthodian) carry a characteristic combination of multi‐row non‐shedding white teeth with brownish overgrowing denticles. The color distinction makes it a good model for observing the interaction between two odontode lineages, but the nature of ...

Neuroendocrinology of Teleosts [PDF]
The nucleus preopticus has been shown to receive afferent input from certain cranial nerves and the spinal cord. In addition, the nucleus preopticus and its tracts can synthesize and transport hormones about as rapidly as a mammal can. The nucleus preopticus is functionally involved in the spawning reflex behavior.

Understanding how anthropogenic pressures and environmental gradients shape coastal fish communities is a central question in biogeography and marine conservation. Yet, the set of species expected to occur at a site given ecological conditions but being absent – the so‐called dark diversity – has received far less attention than observed species, even ...

Studies that address fish welfare before slaughter have concluded that many of the traditional systems used to stun fish including CO2 narcosis are unacceptable as they cause avoidable stress before death.

ABSTRACT Lambda‐cyhalothrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide widely used in agriculture, but its potential to contaminate aquatic ecosystems and exert high toxicity on fish at low concentrations raises ecotoxicological concerns. While standard histopathological and biochemical assessments are common, the novel integration of pigment‐based ...

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Diet‐induced inflammation is a major cause of muscle degeneration impacting human and animal health. Owing to their anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties, polyphenols have attracted considerable interest as feed additives.

Environmentally Realistic Metal Mixture Concentration Impacts Early Development in Zebrafish Larvae
ABSTRACT The dispersion of metals in the environment leads to the presence of metal mixtures in impacted ecosystems, but few studies have addressed their impact on early developmental processes in fish. Here, we investigated the effect of metal mixtures reported in the Doce River basin in Brazil, including Fe, Mn, and Cd, either singly or as a mixture ...
