Heat shock factor 1 protects germ cell proliferation during early ovarian differentiation in medaka
6 May 2019
Abstract excerpt
The heat shock response is important for the viability of all living organisms. It involves the induction of heat shock proteins whose expression is mainly regulated by heat shock factor 1 (HSF1). Medaka (Oryzias latipes) is a teleost fish with an XX/XY sex determination system. High water temperature (HT) inhibits the female-type proliferation of germ cells and induces the masculinisation of XX medaka in some...
