Insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2 regulate gene expression and enzymatic activity of cyp17a1 in ovarian follicles of the yellowtail, Seriola quinqueradiata
There is accumulating evidence that insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), primary mediators of somatic growth, play an important role in fish reproduction. Previously, we showed that IGF-1 and IGF-2 are expressed in the ovarian follicle cells of the yellowtail (Seriola quinqueradiata) during the vitel...
