Effect of Gonadal Steroid Hormones on Plasma Growth Hormone Concentrations in Sexually Immature Rainbow Trout,Oncorhynchus mykiss
Abstract
In the present study we investigated the effects of gonadal steroid hormones on plasma growth hormone (GH), triiodothyronine (T3), and thyroxine (T4) levels in steroid-primed sexually immature rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, in order to determine whether changes in plasma GH and thyroid hormone levels during sexual maturation are a result of elevated gonadal steroid levels or are an altered condition associated with reproduction (as …
