The Growth hormone (GH)-insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) axis plays a central role as the endocrine regulator of physiological functions in teleost fish and other vertebrates. The basic mechanism of the GH-IGF system i...
Immune priming has now been demonstrated as a form of immune memory in a wide range of invertebrate species that lack acquired immune systems. Owing to the specific activation of innate immunity upon reinfection, immune ...
Spexin is a newly discovered neuropeptide in vertebrates. Comprehensive comparative studies are required to unveil its biological functions. In order to ascertain the neuroendocrine function of spexin in orange-spotted g...
D The Scatophagus argus is a cultured marine teleost fish in which females grow faster and larger than males, therefore cloning the master sex-determination (SD) gene will be helpful for its sex control in aquaculture. A...

Neuropeptide Y family (NPY) is a potent orexigenic peptide and pancreatic polypeptide family comprising neuropeptide Y (Npy), peptide YYa (Pyya), and peptide YYb (Pyyb), which was previously known as peptide Y (PY), and ...
Body color is an important economic and ecological trait in aquatic animals, which influence their economic values and determine the animal ability to survive in the marine environment. Red-colored Plectropomus leopardus...
Simple Summary Silver sillago (Sillago sihama) is a marine fish species with a high economic value. S. sihama is poorly resistant to hypoxia. However, hypoxia stress-related genes and pathways in S. sihama remain unclear...
The liver transcriptome was analyzed after 22 d culture with different salinity water using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in spotted scat (Scatophagus argus). The genes involved in lipid metabolism were differentially down- o...
Tannins have great potential as an alternative to in-feed antibiotics. However, no study has investigated the effects of tannins on shrimp. The present study assessed the eff ;ects of hydrolyzable tannins (HTs) fed at di...

Estrogen receptors (Er) play a critical role in vitellogenesis. Three ers (er alpha, er beta 1 and er beta 2) and vitellogenins (vtg-A, vtg-B and vtg-C) subtypes were isolated in various fish species, while the contribut...
Natural and synthetic astaxanthin can promote pigmentation in fish. In this study, the effects of dietary astaxanthin on growth and pigmentation were evaluated in leopard coralgrouper (Plectropomus leopardus). Fish were ...
Hypoxia can lead to adverse effects on growth, reproduction, behavioral activities and survival in fish, and is one of the most critical factors in the aquatic environment. The liver is an important target organ for redu...
The effects of different concentrations of dietary fish oil (0, 2%, or 6%) on ovarian development in 2-year-old female Scatophagus argus were investigated. The levels of serum sex steroid hormones (estradiol-17 beta, E-2...
