Gonadotropin-induced changes in steroid production by ovaries of the common careCyprinus carnio L. around the time of ovulation
Kime D, Bieniarz K
Fish Physiol Biochem . 2013 Nov; 3(1):49-52. PMID: 24233252
Ovarian fragments from both primed (gonadotrophin treated) and unprimed female carp were incubated either with or without carp hypophysial homogenate and steroid hormone production measured. In incubations without hypophysial homogenate,...

Steroidogenesis by ovaries and testes of the European catfish, the wels (Silurus glanis), in vitro
Kime D, Bhattacharya S, Koldras M, Bieniarz K
Fish Physiol Biochem . 2013 Nov; 10(5):389-98. PMID: 24214377
Testosterone, 3α,17-dihydroxy-5β-pregnen-20-one, 17,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17,20βP) and 5β-pregnane-3α,17,20β-triol were identified as the major metabolites of [(3)H] 17-hydroxyprogesterone in ovarian incubations of the European catfish Silurus glanis. 17,20βP and the reduced triol were...

Progestogen metabolism by ovaries of the roach (Rutilus rutilus L.) and the rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus L.)
Kime D
Fish Physiol Biochem . 2013 Nov; 9(5-6):497-504. PMID: 24213826
Roach ovaries converted 17-hydroxyprogesterone to 17,20α-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17,20αP) and to glucuronides of testosterone and 17,20αP. Small amounts of 5α-pregnane-3α- and -3β, 17, 20α-triols, 7α-hydroxy-5α-reduced metabolites and 17,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17,20βP) were also formed....

In vitro synthesis of 20α-reduced and of 11- and 21-oxygenated steroids and their sulfates by testes of the goldfish (Carassius auratus): Testicular synthesis of corticosteroids
Kime D, Scott A
Fish Physiol Biochem . 2013 Nov; 11(1-6):287-92. PMID: 24202487
Testes from spermiating goldfish were incubated with [(3)H]17-hydroxyprogesterone. The major products in the unconjugated fraction were identified as androstenedione, androstenetrione, 11-β-hydroxyandrostenedione, 11-ketotestosterone, 17,20α-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17,20αP) and 11-deoxycortisol. Testosterone was present predominantly...

Substrate concentration affects the in vitro metabolism of 17-hydroxyprogesterone by ovaries of the carp, Cyprinus carpio
Kime D, Abdullah M, Sokolowska-Mikolajczyk M, Epler P
Fish Physiol Biochem . 2013 Nov; 13(4):317-24. PMID: 24198211
Carp ovarian tissue was incubated with (3)H-17-hydroxyprogesterone in the presence of 0, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 μg ml(-1) unlabeled 17-hydroxyprogesterone. The pattern of metabolites formed showed a marked variation...

Histological and immunohistochemical investigation on ovarian development and plasma estradiol levels in the swordfish (Xiphias gladius L.)
Corriero A, Acone F, Desantis S, Zubani D, Deflorio M, Ventriglia G, et al.
Eur J Histochem . 2005 Feb; 48(4):413-22. PMID: 15718208
The paper reports a histological and immunohistochemical description of oocyte growth and ultrastructural aspects of zona radiata (ZR) formation as well as the relationship between plasma estradiol-17beta, (E2) levels and...

Immunohistochemical localization of CYP1A, vitellogenin and Zona radiata proteins in the liver of swordfish (Xiphias gladius L.) taken from the Mediterranean Sea, South Atlantic, South Western Indian and Central North Pacific Oceans
Desantis S, Corriero A, Cirillo F, Deflorio M, Brill R, Griffiths M, et al.
Aquat Toxicol . 2005 Jan; 71(1):1-12. PMID: 15642627
Cytochrome P4501A (CYP1A) monoxygenase, vitellogenin (Vtg) and Zona radiata proteins (Zrp) are frequently used as biomarkers of fish exposure to organic contaminants. In this work, swordfish liver sections obtained from...

Petkam R, Renaud R, Freitas A, Canario A, Raeside J, Kime D, et al.
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2003 Apr; 131(3):241-9. PMID: 12714005
Tissues taken from rainbow trout embryos at several developmental stages, were incubated in the presence of radioactively-labelled pregnenolone in order to determine the capability of salmonid embryos to metabolize steroids,...
