Nutritional programming in Nile tilapia <i>(</i>Oreochromis<i> </i>niloticus<i>)</i>: Effect of low dietary protein on growth and the intestinal microbiome and transcriptome

PLOS ONE, 18(10).

By: C. Deck n, S. Salger n, H. Reynolds n, M. Tada n, M. Severance n, P. Ferket n , H. Egna*, M. Fatema*, S. Haque *, R. Borski n

TL;DR: Results suggest protein restriction for up to 14 days early in development leads to enhanced growth and feed efficiency with minimal effects on gut microbes or intestinal function, while Protein restriction beyond this period appears detrimental to fish growth and health as underscores by expression of disease related genes and higher mortality rates.

MeSH headings : Animals; Cell Membrane / drug effects; Cell Membrane / metabolism; Cycloheximide / pharmacology; Hydrocortisone / analogs & derivatives; Hydrocortisone / pharmacology; Male; Pituitary Gland / cytology; Pituitary Gland / drug effects; Pituitary Gland / metabolism; Prolactin / metabolism; Tilapia / metabolism
TL;DR: It is suggested that cortisol inhibits PRL release through a plasma membrane-associated, protein-synthesis independent (non-genomic) pathway. (via Semantic Scholar)

2001 article

Insulin-like growth factor-I augments prolactin and inhibits growth hormone release through distinct as well as overlapping cellular signaling pathways

Fruchtman, S., Gift, B., Howes, B., & Borski, R. (2001, June). COMPARATIVE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY B-BIOCHEMISTRY & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, Vol. 129, pp. 237–242.

author keywords: mitogen-activated protein kinase; phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; IGF-I signal transduction; IGF-I receptor; LY294002; PD98059; rapamycin; pituitary; teleost
MeSH headings : Animals; Bass / physiology; Chromones / pharmacology; Flavonoids / pharmacology; Growth Hormone / metabolism; Insulin-Like Growth Factor I / metabolism; Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases / antagonists & inhibitors; Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases / metabolism; Morpholines / pharmacology; Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinases / metabolism; Phosphoinositide-3 Kinase Inhibitors; Prolactin / metabolism; Signal Transduction / drug effects; Sirolimus / pharmacology
TL;DR: The studies suggest IGF-I disparately alters PRL and GH by activating distinct as well as overlapping signaling pathways central for mediating actions of growth factors on secretory activity aswell as cell proliferation. (via Semantic Scholar)

Induction of growth hormone (GH) mRNA by pulsatile GH-releasing hormone in rats is pattern specific

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY-ENDOCRINOLOGY AND METABOLISM, 278(5), E885–E891.

By: R. Borski n, W. Tsai n, R. Demott-Friberg* & A. Barkan *

author keywords: pituitary; growth; pulsatility; sexual dimorphism
MeSH headings : Animals; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Female; Gene Expression / drug effects; Growth Hormone / blood; Growth Hormone / genetics; Growth Hormone / metabolism; Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone / administration & dosage; Male; Periodicity; Pituitary Gland / drug effects; Pituitary Gland / metabolism; RNA, Messenger / biosynthesis; Rats; Rats, Sprague-Dawley; Weight Gain / drug effects
TL;DR: These studies suggest that the greater growth rate, pituitary GH mRNA levels, and GH stores seen in male compared with female rats are likely mediated, in part, by the endogenous episodic GHRH secretory pattern present in males. (via Semantic Scholar)

MeSH headings : Animals; Glucocorticoids / physiology; Humans; Membranes / physiology; Vertebrates / physiology
TL;DR: GCs modulate hormone secretion, neuronal excitability, behavior, cell morphology, carbohydrate metabolism and other processes within seconds or minutes, and are related to the important functions that this hormone plays in modulating stress responses. (via Semantic Scholar)
