| temperature and developmental plasticity of muscle phenotype in herring larvae | myogenesis, the expression of myofibrillar protein isoforms and the development of muscle innervation were investigated in clyde herring (clupea harengus l.) in two successive spawning seasons at temperatures ranging from 5 °c to 15 °c. myotube formation occurred in a rostral to caudal progression at similar somite stages at all temperatures. superficial mononuclear muscle pioneer fibres were present at the horizontal septum. myofibrillogenesis was retarded with respect to somite stage a ... | 1997 | 9318632 |
| impaired cellular immune response in rats exposed perinatally to baltic sea herring oil or 2,3,7,8-tcdd. | while the immunotoxicity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (tcdd) has been well established, the effects of complex environmental mixtures of polyhalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons (phahs) are poorly understood. many phahs, including the polychlorinated-biphenyls (pcbs), -dibenzofurans (pcdfs), and dibenzo-p-dioxins (pcdds), possess 'dioxin-like' activities, and accumulate in the aquatic food chain. organisms occupying high trophic levels may therefore be exposed to concentrations which may ... | 1997 | 9285039 |
| temperature and neural development of the atlantic herring (clupea harengus l.). | embryos of atlantic herring (clupea harengus l.) from the buchan (northern north sea) stock were incubated from fertilisation until hatching at temperatures of 5, 8, 12, and 15 degrees c. the relative timing of development of the kolmer-agduhr (ka) neurons, the posterior lateral line nerve, the motor neurons, and myotubes were determined with respect to somite stage of the embryo. development of the ka neurons, the lateral line nerve, and the myotubes was similar at all temperatures. in contrast ... | 1997 | 9219350 |
| pheromone-induced spawning of pacific herring. ii. plasma steroids distinctive to fish responsive to spawning pheromone. | a spawning pheromone in the milt (semen) and testes of the pacific herring, clupea harengus pallasi, is thought to facilitate school spawning of this species. we found that responsiveness to the spawning pheromone was variable among ripe fish (milt-producing or ovulated). measurement of five principle reproductive steroids in the free form and five steroids in conjugated forms in the plasma of male fish early in the spawning season (newly ripe fish) showed that elevated plasma levels of 3 alpha, ... | 1997 | 9213140 |
| pheromone-induced spawning of pacific herring. i. behavioral characterization. | a spawning pheromone in the milt (semen) and testes of the pacific herring, clupea harengus pallasi, triggers spawning in sexually mature fish of both sexes and is thought to facilitate school spawning of this species. we found the response to the pheromone to be a stereotyped behavioral sequence consisting of a graded extension of the gonadal papilla, release of gametes, and spawn deposition behavior. the response is triggered by an olfactory stimulus, as demonstrated by the elimination of the ... | 1997 | 9213139 |
| an immune response to ice crystals in north atlantic fishes. | in mammals, the presence of crystals composed of small organic molecules, including urate and related compounds, has been shown to trigger an inflammatory response and the subsequent production of specific immunoglobulins (ig's). many fishes that are exposed to ice crystals in cold temperate and polar oceans may harbour ice crystals internally. here, we report evidence for a specific immune response to ice crystals in cold-ocean marine fishes. using ice nucleation activity as an assay, anti-ice ... | 1996 | 8944760 |
| reproductive steroids during maturation in a primitive teleost, the pacific herring (clupea harengus pallasi). | concentrations of reproductive steroids were measured in the plasma of captive pacific herring, clupea harengus pallasi, (1) prior to ovulation and milt production, (2) during the periovulatory and newly milt-producing period, (3) during a "ripe" holding period after ovulation and during milt production, and (4) before and after spawning. 17alpha,20beta-dihydroxyprogesterone (17,20beta-p), despite being present only in low concentrations in the unconjugated (free) form (<10 ng/ml), is likely to ... | 1996 | 8812404 |
| ca2+-dependent antifreeze proteins. modulation of conformation and activity by divalent metal ions. | the antifreeze proteins (afps) are structurally diverse molecules that share an ability to bind to ice crystals and inhibit their growth. the type ii fish afps of atlantic herring and smelt are unique among known afps in their requirement of a cofactor for antifreeze activity. these afps are homologous with the carbohydrate-recognition domains of ca2+-dependent (c-type) lectins and require ca2+ for their activity. to investigate the role of metal ions in the structure and function of type ii afp ... | 1996 | 8663288 |
| molecular cloning of troponin i expressed in fast white muscle of a teleost fish, the atlantic herring (clupea harengus l.). | by cdna cloning and 5'-race analysis we characterised a clupea harengus troponin i mrna expressed in larvae and in adult white (fast) muscle, but not in red (slow) or cardiac muscle. the mrna encodes a tni protein of the short chain length (176 residues) n-terminally truncated type previously observed only in tetrapod skeletal muscles. despite its expression specificity the herring tni does not particularly resemble the tetrapod fast skeletal muscle isoform in sequence but appears to be outside ... | 1996 | 8634330 |
| the diencephalon of the pacific herring, clupea harengus: cytoarchitectonic analysis. | the cytoarchitecture of nuclei in the preoptic area, ventral thalamus, dorsal thalamus, epithalamus, hypothalamus, posterior tuberculum, synencephalon, and pretectum and the accessory optic nuclei was analyzed in the clupeomorph teleost, clupea harengus. plesiomorphic (evolutionarily primitive) and apomorphic (evolutionarily derived) features of nuclei were identified by cladistic analysis. plesiomorphic features include the cytoarchitectonic organization of most of the preoptic nuclei, the some ... | 1993 | 8429133 |
| the diencephalon of the pacific herring, clupea harengus: retinofugal projections to the diencephalon and optic tectum. | the pattern of retinofugal projections to nuclei in the diencephalon and to the optic tectum was analyzed with horseradish peroxidase and autoradiographic methods in clupea harengus, a clupeomorph teleost, for comparison with osteoglossomorph, elopomorph, and euteleost teleosts and with non-teleost actinopterygians. most retinal fibers decussate in the optic chiasm and project to nuclei in the preoptic area, ventral and dorsal thalamus, posterior tuberculum, synencephalon, and pretectum, as well ... | 1993 | 8381443 |
| herring antifreeze protein: primary structure and evidence for a c-type lectin evolutionary origin. | a complementary dna (cdna) for a type ii antifreeze protein (afp) was isolated from an atlantic herring liver cdna library and sequenced. the predicted protein sequence is homologous to those of the type ii fish afp from smelt and sea raven; it is also homologous to the carbohydrate recognition domains (crd) of calcium-dependent (c-type) lectins and similar domains in lectin-like proteins. herring belong to the infradivision clupeomorpha, which is distinct from the euteleostei to which all other ... | 1993 | 8364686 |
| molecular analysis of ependymins from the cerebrospinal fluid of the orders clupeiformes and salmoniformes: no indication for the existence of an euteleost infradivision. | ependymins represent the predominant protein constituents in the cerebrospinal fluid of many teleost fish and they are synthesized in meningeal fibroblasts. here, we present the ependymin sequences from the herring (clupea harengus) and the pike (esox lucius). a comparison of ependymin homologous sequences from three different orders of teleost fish (salmoniformes, cypriniformes, and clupeiformes) revealed the highest similarity between clupeiformes and cypriniformes. this result is unexpected b ... | 1993 | 8350351 |
| in vitro digestibility of different prey species of minke whales (balaenoptera acutorostrata). | information on diet composition, daily energy expenditure, energy storage and the utilization of energy in the prey are important factors when evaluating the food consumption of minke whales (balaenoptera acutorostrata) during their summer stay in northern waters. the purpose of the present study was in this context to obtain information on the digestible energy (de) of different prey selected by minke whales. an in vitro three-stage digestion technique, simulating the different compartments of ... | 1993 | 8260475 |
| nickel-63 in baltic fish and sediments. | the determination of 63ni was carried out on fish samples of cod (gadus morhua), herring (clupea harengus), sprat (sprattus sprattus) and samples of sediment core from the gdańsk bay. in contrast to stable nickel, 63ni is non-uniformly distributed within the fish. more than 95% of total 63ni content in cod and herring is located in fillet with skin and scale. our data suggesting, that mechanism for uptake of 63ni in cod and herring is by passive adsorption onto the surface of skin and scale mucu ... | 1994 | 8019522 |
| dietary deficiency of docosahexaenoic acid impairs vision at low light intensities in juvenile herring (clupea harengus l.). | in the retina of herring (clupea harengus l.), rods are recruited from about 8 wk after hatching, and from this time there is a linear relationship between the number of rods in the photoreceptor cell population and the content of di22:6n-3 molecular species of phospholipids. juvenile herring were reared from four weeks' post-hatching for 15 wk on either artemia nauplii deficient in 22:6n-3 or on enriched artemia nauplii containing 4.3% 22:6n-3. the visual performance of the fish was then determ ... | 1995 | 7637565 |

| [lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes from teleost fish retina, cardiac and skeletal muscle]. | kinetic analysis, electrophoresis and selective inactivation were used in studies of isozymic composition of ldh in the retina, cardiac and skeletal muscles in 8 species of marine teleost fishes. in the retina, the number of isoenzymes in all the fishes studied varied from 2 to 7, the predominant ones being b4 and e4. the isoenzyme e4 was found only in the retina of hexagrammus octogrammus, pleurogrammus monopterygius, liopsetts pannifasciata, limanda yokohamae, eleginus gracilis, therarga chalc ... | 1976 | 941581 |
| histopathologic alterations associated with anisakis larvae in pacific herring from oregon. | a histopathologic study of anisakis sp. larvae in pacific herring (clupea harengus pallasi) is presented. tissue alterations included mechanical compression of the pancreas and liver, granulomatous inflammation and necrosis of the liver, and trauma to the muscularis externa of the pyloric caeca. host exudate in most lesions contained macrophages (histiocytes) and lymphocytes. | 1977 | 916144 |
| [experimental study of the aftereffects of feeding rats certain types of canned fish]. | for 3 years fish canned goods were added to the ration of rats. these additions included atlantic herring in tomato gravy ("stavrida"), dressed sprat in tomato gravy (sprats-small-sized) or sprat in vegetable oil ("sprat"). rats receiving canned "small-sized sprats" or "sprats developed much more often malignant tumors of different localization than did the animals fed on "stavrida" or control rats. feeding of rats on the vegetable oil from "stavrida" and "sprat" cans did not have any material e ... | 1978 | 716334 |
| occurrence and survival of the larval nematode anisakis sp. in the flesh of fresh, frozen, brined, and smoked pacific herring, clupea harengus pallasi. | two hundred and twenty pacific herring (clupea harengus pallasi) from yaquina bay, oregon, were divided into five groups to test the effects of various methods of handling and processing (fresh, frozen, brined, cold smoked, and cold smoked-gibbed) on the occurrence and survival of anisakis larvae in the flesh. viscera and flesh were digested separately using a pepsin-hc1 technique, and counts were taken of anisakis larvae. parasite loads were statistically largest in the flesh of frozen, brined, ... | 1977 | 559067 |
| non-repetitive dna sequence divergence in phylogenetically diploid and tetraploid teleostean species of the family cyprinidae and the order isospondyli. | non-repetitive dna of anciently tetraploid teleostean species was analysed for the presence of duplicated sequences. closely related diploid species were investigated in comparison. from the reassociation kinetics of total nuclear dna, rate constants and fraction sizes of classes of repetitive and non-repetitive sequences were determined. dna fractions enriched in the slowest renaturing sequence class were determined. dna fractions enriched in the slowest renaturing sequence class were prepared ... | 1979 | 533669 |
| fluorescent histochemistry of the teleost gut: evidence for the presence of serotonergic neurones. | the guts of the teleosts myoxocephalus scorpius, pleuronectes platessa and clupea harengus were examined using fluorescent histochemistry and the innervation compared to that in mammals and other lower vertebrates. in myoxocephalus and pleuronectes both greeen and yellow fast fading fluorescent nerves were found in the intestine. to test whether the yellow nerves might be serotonergic, an attempt was made to extract 5-ht from the intestine of these fish in a region where enterochromaffin cells w ... | 1979 | 455398 |
