Estrogen Signaling Inhibits the Expression of anti-Müllerian hormone (amh) and gonadal-soma-derived factor (gsdf) during the Critical Time of Sexual Fate Determination in Zebrafish

Abstract excerpt

The mechanism of fish gonadal sex differentiation is complex and regulated by multiple factors. It has been widely known that proper steroidogenesis in Leydig cells and sex-related genes in Sertoli cells play important roles in gonadal sex differentiation. In teleosts, the precise interaction of these signals during the sexual fate determination remains elusive, especially their effect on the bi-potential gonad...
