Zebrafish gonad mutant models reveal neuroendocrine mechanisms of brain sexual dimorphism and male mating behaviors of different brain regions

Xiangyan Dai et al.

Summary: By studying germ cells-free tdrd12 knockout and steroid synthesis enzyme cyp17a1-deficient zebrafish, we found that mating behaviors are mainly regulated by neuroendocrine mechanisms. Additionally, we identified key genes and signaling pathways involved in modulating brain morphology and male mating behavior.

Mutation of brain aromatase disrupts spawning behavior and reproductive health in female zebrafish

Katherine Shaw et al.

Summary: Aromatase (Cyp19a1) is a crucial steroidogenic enzyme involved in the conversion of androgens into bioactive estrogens, playing a pivotal role in reproduction and sexual behavior. In teleosts, there are two paralogs of aromatase, cyp19a1a and cyp19a1b, with different expression patterns and functions. The mutation of cyp19a1b in female zebrafish increased the latency to the first oviposition and the number of eggs spawned, but resulted in higher mortality of progeny during early development. In males, the mutation of both cyp19a1 paralogs led to significantly lower survival rates of progeny during early larval development.

Neuroendocrine Control of Reproduction in Teleost Fish: Concepts and Controversies

Vance L. Trudeau

Summary: During the evolution of fish, the direct innervation mode of hypothalamo-pituitary communication developed, but the median eminence typical of mammals was lost. Various neuropeptides, amines, and neurotransmitters are involved in the control of reproduction. Positive and negative sex steroid feedback loops exist in both sexes. Gene mutation models in zebrafish and medaka challenge the existing understanding of neuropeptidergic control. New reproductive neuropeptides, such as nesfatin 1, neurokinin B, and the secretoneurins, are being discovered. A generalized model for the neuroendocrine control of reproduction is proposed, with the aim of explaining the evolution of neuroendocrine control and discovering new hormones with novel applications.

Zebrafish: A New Promise to Study the Impact of Metabolic Disorders on the Brain

Batoul Ghaddar et al.

Summary: Zebrafish is a popular model organism for studying physiological and pathophysiological processes in humans. It has been particularly useful in the research of metabolic disorders and neuroscience, where similarities between fish and mammals/humans have been observed. Recent studies have shown that metabolic disorders have a negative impact on brain homeostasis, contributing to neuro-inflammation, oxidative stress, and decreased neurogenesis. These pathological metabolic conditions are also risk factors for cognitive dysfunctions and neurodegenerative diseases.

Leptin modulates oocyte maturation by a central and a direct pathway in zebrafish

AmruthaBagivalu Lakshminarasimha et al.

Summary: The study reveals that Lepr LOF in zebrafish results in dysregulation of pituitary HPG genes, slower oocyte maturation, increased rate of infertility, attenuated effect and increased rate of GVBD, as well as reduced rate of oocyte atresia in culture.

Plasmin generates vasoinhibin-like peptides by cleaving prolactin and placental lactogen

Christin Friedrich et al.

Summary: Plasmin was found to cleave human prolactin and placental lactogen to generate vasoinhibin-like peptides. The cleavage sites for prolactin and placental lactogen were identified at K170-E171 and R160-T161, respectively. Genetic variants of the human prolactin and placental lactogen genes are predicted to impact the proteolytic generation of these peptides.

From a single steroid to the steroidome: Trends and analytical challenges

Eulalia Olesti et al.

Summary: Steroid analysis has become a crucial tool in diagnosing and monitoring endocrine pathologies, with methods evolving rapidly to monitor large sets of steroids in biological matrices. Liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry is the preferred technique due to its sensitivity and robustness, but challenges like dynamic range, low natural abundance, selectivity, extraction protocols, and ionization remain. Availability of steroid standards, complementary analytical strategies, and improved calibration approaches are crucial for complete steroidome quantification.

Steroid hormones in the aquatic environment

J. O. Ojoghoro et al.

Summary: Steroid hormones are crucial natural hormones that regulate physiological processes in vertebrates; both natural and synthetic steroid hormones have been identified as widespread aquatic contaminants; experiments have shown that even at extremely low concentrations, steroid hormones can adversely affect reproduction in aquatic vertebrates.

LC?MS/MS measurement of endogenous oxytocin in the posterior pituitary and CSF of macaques: A pilot study

D. W. Erikson et al.

Summary: Oxytocin is released into the body through peripheral and central pathways, playing a significant role in various functions. Studies show that peripheral oxytocin levels can be used as an indicator of central oxytocin levels. Further research will investigate whether peripheral oxytocin can serve as a marker for human neuropsychiatric disorders.

Quantitative Peptidomics of Mouse Brain After Infection With Cyst-Forming Toxoplasma gondii

Chun-Xue Zhou et al.

Summary: Our study utilized a label-free peptidomics approach to identify over 2,700 endogenous peptides in the brains of hosts infected with Toxoplasma gondii. Quantitative analysis revealed hundreds of differentially expressed peptides during acute and chronic infection stages. Functional analysis suggested these peptides play roles in cellular processes and come from cell parts.
