The influence of testosterone implantation in the brain and pituitary on pituitary gonadotropin levels in Atlantic Salmon parr

چکیده

Implantation of testosterone pellets in the brain or pituitary of male and female parr caused an increase in pituitary gonadotropin, and in males tended to stimulate spermatogenesis. The most effective implant locations were the nucleus lateral tuberis in the ventrobasal hypothalamus and the pituitary. This influence of testosterone on the brain and pituitary may be involved in control of precocious sexual maturation.

Growth hormone endocrinology of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar): pituitary gene expression, hormone storage, secretion and plasma levels during parr-smolt transformation.

A number of studies on the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), have reported changes in plasma GH during parr-smolt transformation, but there is a lack of information about the endocrinology of the GH system during this process. In order to elucidate the mechanisms underlying these changes in plasma GH levels during the parr-smolt transformation of Atlantic salmon, GH mRNA expression in the pituitar...

Changes in brain gonadotropin-releasing hormone, pituitary and plasma gonadotropins, and plasma thyroxine during smoltification in chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha).

Concentrations of brain salmon gonadotropin-releasing hormone (sGnRH), plasma gonadotropin I (GTH I), and pituitary GTH I and GTH II were determined in yearling chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha) during the parr-smolt transformation in two successive seasons. There were significant elevations in brain sGnRH content from February to March in 1988, and from February to April in 1989. Incr...
