Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Characterization of Three Estrogen Receptor Forms in Zebrafish: Binding Characteristics, Transactivation Properties, and Tissue Distributions

TL;DR: The cloning and characterization of three functional ER forms, zfERα, z fERβ1, and zf ERβ2, in the zebrafish provides a new perspective for understanding the mechanisms underlying estradiol actions in a vertebrate species commonly used for developmental studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interference of endocrine disrupting chemicals with aromatase CYP19 expression or activity, and consequences for reproduction of teleost fish.

TL;DR: Diverse EDCs may affect the expression and/or activity of aromatase cyp19 genes through a variety of mechanisms, many of which need further characterization in order to improve the prediction of risks posed by a contaminated environment to teleost fish population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aromatase in the brain of teleost fish: expression, regulation and putative functions.

TL;DR: In situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry and expression of GFP in transgenic tg(cyp19a1b-GFP) fish demonstrate that aromatase B is only expressed in radial glial cells (RGC) of adult fish, suggesting that it could be part of the mechanisms authorizing the maintenance of a high proliferative activity in the brain of fish.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of aromatase-positive radial glial cells as progenitor cells in the ventricular layer of the forebrain in zebrafish.

TL;DR: The expression of aromatase in the neural stem cells of the adult strongly demonstrates that the fish brain is an outstanding model for studying the effects of estrogens on adult neurogenesis and brain repair.
