Climate change, emerging pollutants and reproduction dysfunction in fish: Linking climate change with pollution and biological consequences.

De spådde klimaendringene er foreslått til å endre fremtidig distribusjon og toksisitet av persistente organiske miljøgifter (POPs). Slike interaktive effekter mellom miljøgifter og forhøyede CO2- nivåer ( hype rkapnia) i akvatiskmiljøet er lite undersøkt. I den foreliggende studien ble juvenil ...

An Integration of Climate Change and Endocrine responses: Understanding the Effects of Quantifiable Environmental Factors and Contaminants

Any long-term significant change in the average weather experienced by a given region is generally referred as climate change. These changes can be caused by dynamic processes on earth, external forces including variations in sunlight intensity, and most recently by human activities. Global warmi...

Neural and Interrenal Steroidogenesis as Cellular and Molecular Targets for Emerging Fluorinated organochemicals and Pharmaceutical EDCs.

Endocrine disruptor testing strategies have omitted examination of the neural and adrenal glands and do not adequately cover the process of steroidogenesis. Steroidogenesis is critical for adrenocortical, testicular and ovarian functions, and represents m ultiple molecular targets for toxicity, r...

Androgens and growth of previtellogenic oocytes in Atlantic cod: Identification and patterns of differentially expressed genes and proteins

Despite the concept of life-history strategies, the internal (within the body) signals that regulate fecundity are not known. Prior to vitellogenesis (previtellogenesis), androgens may play an integral role in the regulation of oocytes (immature eggs) gro wth. Preliminary evidence supporting thes...

Androgens and growth of previtellogenic oocytes in Atlantic cod: Identification and pattern of differentially expressed genes and proteins

The overall objective of the proposed project is to study the role and effect of androgens (e.g. 11-ketotestosterone; 11-KT) on the growth of previtellogenic oocytes through the characterization of androgen-responsive ovarian genes and proteins. Thus incr easing our understanding on the hormonal ...
