Fish are the most diversified group of vertebrates and, although progress has been made in
the past years, only relatively few fish species have been examined to date, with regards to …

It is well known that gonadotropin-releasing hormone (Gnrh) has a key role in reproduction
by regulating the synthesis and release of gonadotropins from the anterior pituitary gland of …

Most endocrine systems in the body are influenced by the hypothalamic-pituitary axis. Within
this axis, the hypothalamus delivers precise signals to the pituitary gland, which in turn …

Goldfish (Carassius auratus) are excellent model organisms for the neuroendocrine
signaling and the regulation of reproduction in vertebrates. Goldfish also serve as useful …

In humans, as in the other mammals, the neuroendocrine control of reproduction is ensured
by the brain-pituitary gonadotropic axis. Multiple internal and environmental cues are …

Reproduction is a critically important event in every animals' life and in all vertebrates is
controlled by the brain via the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. In many species …

Optimization of food consumption and ultimately growth are major concerns for aquaculture.
In fish, food intake is regulated by several hormones produced by both brain and peripheral …

Energy balance plays an important role in the control of reproduction. However, the cellular
and molecular mechanisms connecting the two systems are not well understood especially …

Although recently discovered, orexins have been rapidly established as important
neuropeptides in regulating physiological processes including food intake, sleep/wake …

Studying the endocrine regulation of food intake in fish can be challenging due to the
diversity in appetite-regulating hormones and the diversity within the fish group itself …
