چکیده انگلیسی
For understanding the functions of the growth hormone (GH)/prolactin (PRL)/somatolactin (SL) family of hormones, we examined pituitary mRNA expression of these hormones in anguillid eels in relation to salinity difference, silvering, and seasonal change. Female Japanese eels (Anguilla japonica) were collected in the brackish Hamana Lake and its freshwater rivers from July to December. To clarify the effect of salinity, the habitat use history of the eels were determined using otolith microchemistry. Expression levels of mRNA of each hormone were determined using real time PCR. Although GH and PRL have been known to be osmoregulatory hormones, there were no consistent differences in expression levels of these hormones between different salinity habitats. In contrast, SL mRNA expression was higher in eels from freshwater rivers than from the brackish lake. GH mRNA expression clearly decreased during silvering, whereas PRL and SL mRNA expression did not change. We also showed that PRL mRNA and SL mRNA decreased in the brackish lake and PRL mRNA increased in freshwater rivers from autumn to early winter. These findings provide basic knowledge for a further understanding of the role of these hormones.
