2014 journal article

Bridging the Gap From Screening Assays to Estrogenic Effects in Fish: Potential Roles of Multiple Estrogen Receptor Subtypes

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 48(9), 5211–5219.

By: E. Yost n, C. Pow n, M. Hawkins n & S. Kullman n

MeSH headings : Animals; Estrogen Receptor alpha / physiology; Estrogen Receptor beta / physiology; Estrogens / pharmacology; Humans; Liver / metabolism; Male; Oryzias; Polymerase Chain Reaction; Vitellogenins / metabolism; Water Pollutants, Chemical / pharmacology
TL;DR: Results support emerging evidence that ERβ subtypes are critically involved in the teleost estrogenic response, with the ERα:ERβ ratio being of particular importance. (via Semantic Scholar)

2014 journal article

Functional diversification of vitamin D receptor paralogs in teleost fish after a whole genome duplication event

Endocrinology, 155(12), 4641–4654.

By: E. Kollitz n, M. Hawkins n, G. Whitfield* & S. Kullmam

MeSH headings : Animals; Calcitriol / metabolism; Evolution, Molecular; Fish Proteins / genetics; Fish Proteins / metabolism; Gene Duplication; Genome; Nuclear Receptor Coactivators / metabolism; Oryzias; Receptors, Calcitriol / genetics; Receptors, Calcitriol / metabolism; Retinoid X Receptors / metabolism; Zebrafish
TL;DR: The results imply that functional differences between VDRα and VDRβ occurred early in teleost evolution because they are conserved between distantly related species, and suggest that the observed differences may be associated with differential protein-protein interactions between the VDR paralogs and coactivators.

2006 article

Aromatase immunoreactivity in the bluehead wrasse brain, Thalassoma bifasciatum: Immunolocalization and co-regionalization with arginine vasotocin and tyrosine hydroxylase

Marsh, K. E., Creutz, L. M., Hawkins, M. B., & Godwin, J. (2006, December 18). BRAIN RESEARCH, Vol. 1126, pp. 91–101.

By: K. Marsh n, L. Creutz n, M. Hawkins n & J. Godwin n

author keywords: aromatase; arginine vasotocin; dopamine; estrogen; teleost; hypothalamus
MeSH headings : Aggression / physiology; Animals; Aromatase / metabolism; Brain / anatomy & histology; Brain / metabolism; Brain Mapping; Dopamine / biosynthesis; Estrogens / biosynthesis; Female; Gonads / metabolism; Immunohistochemistry; Male; Neuroglia / metabolism; Neurons / metabolism; Perciformes / anatomy & histology; Perciformes / metabolism; Reproduction / physiology; Sex Differentiation / physiology; Sexual Behavior, Animal / physiology; Species Specificity; Tyrosine 3-Monooxygenase / metabolism; Vasotocin / metabolism
TL;DR: The presence of aromatase in brain regions important in the regulation of sexual and aggressive behavior suggests that local estrogen synthesis could regulate sex change through effects on signaling systems that subserve reproductive behavior and function. (via Semantic Scholar)
