Abstract: Abstract This study examined the influence of water temperature on the induction of vitellogenin (VTG) in walleye pollocks (Gadus chalcogrammus) in aquaculture. The full-length VTG-A (or VTG-I) gene of walleye pollock was cloned using RACE… read more here.

Abstract: A monoclonal antibody specific to sea bass (Lates calcarifer) vitellogenin (VTG) was developed, for use as a tool for monitoring endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). VTG was induced in sea bass by intramuscular injection of 17β-estradiol… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2021.113812

Abstract: Estradiol-17β (E2) regulates transcription of estrogen-responsive genes via estrogen receptors (Esr). In many teleost species, choriogenin (chg), vitellogenin (vtg) and esr genes are transactivated by E2 in the liver. This study aimed i) to compare… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Experimental Biology"

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.221630

Abstract: ABSTRACT Vitellogenesis (‘yolking’ of follicles) is a bioenergetically costly stage of reproduction requiring enlargement of the liver to produce vitellogenin (VTG) yolk precursor proteins, which are transported and deposited at the ovary. VTG may, however,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fenvs.2025.1622837

Abstract: The impact of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on humans and wildlife ranks amongst the most insidious of environmental health concerns. Sadly, the paucity of scientific data on environmental presence of EDCs in developing countries, especially… read more here.
