Characterization of TRH/GnRH-like peptides in the sea cucumber, Holothuria scabra, and their effects on oocyte maturation
2020-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Thyrotropin/Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (TRH/GnRH) is a neurohormone that plays important roles in regulation of several physiological processes of invertebrate species, including echinoderms. The aims of this study were to characterize for the first time a TRH/GnRH-like peptide in the sea cucumber, Holothuria scabra. We have isolated a full-length cDNA for a TRH/GnRH preprohormone gene from the radial nerve co...
