Endocrine Control of Osmoregulation in Teleost Fish1
SYNOPSIS. As the primary link between environmental change and physiological response, the neuroendocrine system is a critical part of osmoregulatory adaptations. Cortisol has been viewed as ‘the’ seawater-adapting hormone in fish and prolactin as ‘the’ fresh water adapting hormone. Recent evidence indicates that the growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor I axis is also important in seawater...
متن کاملThe Review of the Effect of Growth Hormone on Immune System, Metabolism and Osmoregulation of Fish
The aim of the present review is to summarize the knowledge on the neuroendocrine control of Growth hormone (GH). The biological actions of growth hormone are pleiotropic, including growth promotion, energy mobilization, gonadal development, appetite, social behavior, osmoregulation and control of immune system. Accordingly, the regulatory network for GH is complex and includes many endocrine a...
متن کاملProlactin and growth hormone in fish osmoregulation.
Prolactin is an important regulator of multiple biological functions in vertebrates, and has been viewed as essential to ion uptake as well as reduction in ion and water permeability of osmoregulatory surfaces in freshwater and euryhaline fish. Prolactin-releasing peptide seems to stimulate prolactin expression in the pituitary and peripheral organs during freshwater adaptation. Growth hormone,...
متن کاملProduction and Purification of Recombinant Somatolactin and its Effects on Insulin-like Growth Factors Gene Expression in Tilapia Hepatocytes
Somatolactin (SL), a member of the growth hormone (GH)/ prolactin (PRL) family, is fish-specific hormone as the gene has been lost in tetrapods during the period of land invasion [1]. It is well demonstrated that SL possesses both glycosylated and non-glycosylated forms in fish [2]. Biochemical and physiological studies demonstrated that SL might be involved in a variety of physiological action...
متن کاملCan fasting in the holy month of Ramadan affect on the levels of luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prolactin?
Adherence to the recommendations and obligations of Islam is of great importance in achieving a desirable lifestyle. Fasting in the holy month of Ramadan is one of the main principles of Islam, in which Muslims refrain from eating, drinking, oral medications, and smoking from Fajr (pre-dawn) to Maghrib (sunset). Islamic rules dictate that fasting is unacceptable if it causes harm to the health ...
