TSH, also known as thyrotropin, is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. It is composed of two subunits: an alpha subunit, which is also shared with other hormones like luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and a unique ...
As knowledge of contaminants capable of adversely modulating endocrine functions increases, attention is focused on the effects of synthetic progestins as environmental endocrine disrupters. In the present study, effects of exposure to a synthetic progestin (norethindrone, 168 ± 7.5 ng/L) and endogenous progestogen (progesterone, 34 ± 4.1 ng/L) on steroidogenesis in adult female fathead minnows ...
Our objective was to investigate the impact of Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) on fish reproduction over two generations. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos (F0) were exposed to low concentrations (3, 10, 30 μg/L) of the PBDE mixture DE‐71 until they were sexually mature, and steroid hormone production, expression of genes involved in steroidogenesis, gonadal development and gamete ...
