DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2016.06.025
Abstract: ABSTRACT The head kidney, analogous to the mammalian adrenal gland, is an organ unique for teleost fish. It comprises cytokine‐producing lymphoid cells from the immune system and endocrine cells secreting cortisol, catecholamines, and thyroid hormones.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0273779
Abstract: Sex change occurs as a usual part of the life cycle for many teleost fish and the modifications involved (behavioural, gonadal, morphological) are well studied. However, the mechanism that transduces environmental cues into the molecular… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2022.889635
Abstract: Aquaculture management involves regular handling procedures, but these can evoke stress responses in farmed fish. We compiled an extensive list of published parameters that indicate the most likely handling-induced physiological deviations from the norm. However,… read more here.
