EFFECTS OF CSH ON THE GROWTH AND GENE EXPRESSIONS OF THE GROWTH AXIS IN NILE TILAPIA OREOCHROMIS NILOTICUS
|
Abstract:
Regulations of the synthesis and secretion of growth hormone (GH) in teleosts are based on the dual control of hypothalamic stimulators, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), dopamine (DA), growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), and hypothalamic inhibitors, somatostatin (SS) and norepinephrine (NE). SS is the main inhibitor of basal and neuroendocrine-stimulated GH release. Cysteamine (CS) is a potent somatostatin depletory, and significantly promotes animal growth. Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) i...
