Cloning and expression analysis of insulin‐like growth factor I and II in liver and muscle of sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax, L.) during long‐term fasting and refeeding
2007-04-01
Abstract excerpt
The exceptionally fast growth that fish experience after periods of fasting has been called ‘compensatory growth’ or ‘catch‐up’ growth. This phenomenon, reported in a wide range of fish species, has been studied in intensive aquaculture as a means of enhancing feed conversion efficiency, but the mechanisms implicated are complex and not yet fully understood. In the present study, the authors describe the cloning a...
