In vitro and in silico insights on the regulation by gonadal hormones of pituitary GnRH receptor expression in a basal teleost, the European eel

Eel species are basal teleosts with a unique life cycle including an arrest of sexual maturation before the reproductive oceanic migration. Our early studies showed that this blockade results from a deficient production of pituitary gonadotropins, due in part to a low responsiveness to gonadotropin-...
