1.
Jenkins L, Medeiros L, Cervantes D, Nagler J, Pierce A
Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol . 2023 Aug; 285:111510. PMID: 37652290
In iteroparous female salmonids, the growth and reproductive endocrine axes interact during the period after spawning. Energy depletion due to pre-spawn fasting, migration, and ovarian development must be restored, and...

Hoffman N, Medeiros L, Graham N, Nuetzel H, Pierce A, Nagler J
Conserv Physiol . 2023 Jan; 11(1):coac085. PMID: 36694597
Hatchery programs designed to conserve and increase the abundance of natural populations of spring Chinook Salmon O have reported high proportions of males precociously maturing at age 2, called minijacks....

Jenkins L, Medeiros L, Graham N, Hoffman B, Cervantes D, Hatch D, et al.
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2022 Dec; 332:114181. PMID: 36455641
Consecutive and skip repeat spawning (1- or ≥2-year spawning interval) life histories commonly occur in seasonally breeding iteroparous fishes. Spawning interval variation is driven by energetic status and impacts fisheries...

Medeiros L, Nagler J, Pierce A
Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol . 2020 Jul; 248:110751. PMID: 32629088
The GH/IGF-I axis influences many aspects of salmonid life history and is involved in a variety of physiological processes that are related to somatic growth (e.g., reproduction, smoltification, and the...

Jenkins L, Pierce A, Graham N, Medeiros L, Hatch D, Nagler J
Conserv Physiol . 2019 Aug; 7(1):coz038. PMID: 31380109
Many iteroparous fishes spawn after skipping one or more yearly cycles, which impacts recruitment estimates used for fisheries management and conservation. The physiological mechanisms underlying the development of consecutive and...

Caldwell L, Pierce A, Riley L, Duncan C, Nagler J
PLoS One . 2014 Jan; 9(1):e85700. PMID: 24416444
The metabolic peptide hormone nesfatin-1 has been linked to the reproductive axis in fishes. The purpose of this study was to determine how energy availability after spawning affects plasma levels...

Caldwell L, Pierce A, Nagler J
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2013 Sep; 194:124-32. PMID: 24060463
To determine how energy balance affects metabolic hormones hypothesized to play a role in the onset of a new reproductive cycle in iteroparous salmonids, food availability after spawning was restricted...
8.
Pierce A, Breves J, Moriyama S, Hirano T, Grau E
J Endocrinol . 2011 Aug; 211(2):201-10. PMID: 21803836
Igf1 and Igf2 stimulate growth and development of vertebrates. In mammals, liver-derived endocrine Igf1 mediates the growth promoting effects of GH during postnatal life, whereas Igf2 stimulates placental and fetal...

Breves J, Fox B, Pierce A, Hirano T, Grau E
J Exp Zool A Ecol Genet Physiol . 2010 Jul; 313(7):432-41. PMID: 20623800
This study characterized endocrine and ionoregulatory responses accompanying seawater (SW) acclimation in Mozambique tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus). Changes in plasma hormones and gene expression of hormone receptors, putative osmosensors, and ion...

Fox B, Breves J, Davis L, Pierce A, Hirano T, Grau E
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2009 Nov; 166(3):573-80. PMID: 19932110
The effects of prolonged nutrient restriction (fasting) and subsequent restoration (re-feeding) on the growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis were investigated in the tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus). Mean weight and...
