Identification and functional analysis of foxl2 and nodal in sea cucumber, Apostichopus japonicus

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper used real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) to identify the role of Foxl2 and nodal homologous genes in the development of sea cucumber.

The emerging role of microRNAs in fish ovary: A mini review.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a brief overview of canonical miRNA biogenesis and functions; summarize miRNAs that are expressed in fish ovary; and discuss the emerging role of microRNAs in regulating fish ovarian functions.

Regulation of oocyte maturation in fish.

TL;DR: This article showed that oocyte maturation is a three-step induction process involving gonadotropin (LH), maturation-inducing hormone (MIH), and maturationpromoting factor (MPF).

Stages of oocyte development in the zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio

TL;DR: This staging series lays the foundation for future studies on the cellular processes occurring during oocyte development in zebrafish and should be useful for experimentation that requires an understanding of stage‐specific events.

Target protectors reveal dampening and balancing of Nodal agonist and antagonist by miR-430.

TL;DR: This work reports that zebrafish microRNA-430 (miR-430) dampens and balances the expression of the transforming growth factor–β (TGF-β) Nodal agonist squint and the TGF- β Nodals antagonist lefty, and develops target protector morpholinos complementary to miRNA binding sites in target mRNAs.

Regulation of oocyte growth and maturation in fish

TL;DR: Of considerable interest is the finding that MIH, unlike most steroid hormones, acts on its receptors at the surface of oocytes, and the mechanism of MIH-induced MPF activation in fish oocytes differs from that in Xenopus and starfish.

Signaling Cross Talk between TGF-β/Smad and Other Signaling Pathways.

TL;DR: This review discusses recent progress in the understanding of the cross talk between Smad proteins and signaling pathways of Wnt, Notch, Hippo, Hedgehog, mitogen-activated protein (MAP), kinase, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-Akt, nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), and Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathways.
