The Impact of Exogenous Tetrodotoxin on the piRNAs and mRNAs Profiles of Gonads in Pufferfish Takifugu Flavidus
2021-11-03
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a deadly neurotoxin and usually accumulates in large amounts in the ovaries but is non-toxic or low toxic in the testis of pufferfish. The molecular mechanism underlying sexual dimorphism of TTX accumulation in gonads is complex and unclear. Piwi/piRNA complexes are essential for germline specification, gametogenesis, and gonadal development, they also demonstrate...
