Previous reviews of stress, and the stress hormone cortisol, in fish have focussed on
physiology, due to interest in impacts on aquaculture production. Here, we discuss cortisol in …

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 …

Several salmonid species, including members of the genera Oncorhynchus, Salmo and

As the primary link between environmental change and physiological response, the
neuroendocrine system is a critical part of osmoregulatory adaptations. Cortisol has been …

Background The functional divergence of duplicate genes (ohnologues) retained from whole
genome duplication (WGD) is thought to promote evolutionary diversification. However …

Insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) is a key component of the complex system that regulates
differentiation, development, growth and reproduction of fishes. The IGF‐I gene is mainly …

The focus of this review is on the importance and regulation of fish growth hormone (GH),
during exposure to stress. Alterations in environmental salinity impose osmoregulatory …

Teleost fishes are the major group of ray-finned fishes and represent more than one-half of

The opportunity to prepare a second edition of a book that was originally written 30 years
ago has provided me with both a challenge and a source of pleas over ure; the former as it …

The dynamics of branchial Na+, K+, 2Cl− cotransporter (NKCC) and Na+, K+‐ATPase (NKA)
expression were investigated in brown trout and Atlantic salmon during salinity shifts and the …
