Differential gene expression in the brain of the African lungfish, Protopterus annectens, after six days or six months of aestivation in air.

The African lungfish, Protopterus annectens, can undergo aestivation during drought. Aestivation has three phases: induction, maintenance and arousal. The objective of this study was to examine the differential gene expression in the brain of P. annectens during the induction (6 days) and maintenanc...
