2014, Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology -Part A : Molecular and Integrative PhysiologyCitation Excerpt :Cortisol is a well-known catabolic hormone that causes proteolysis and muscle breakdown. As a stress hormone, cortisol reduced myogenic rate in mouse myoblast C2C12 cell line (Pandurangan et al., 2013) and cortisol exposure to F. heteroclitus have been shown to decrease body weight in F. heteroclitus (Pickford et al., 1970). KFE-5 morphology and cell numbers were affected by cortisol and the number of myogenic cells was significantly decreased compared to the no treatment control.

2003, Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - BiomembranesCitation Excerpt :As such, F. heteroclitus and some of its close relatives (e.g., F. kansae, F. similis, F. chrysotus) were studied extensively in the 1940s–1970s, revealing many of the basic principles which we now accept as fundamental to euryhaline osmoregulation in teleosts (reviewed by Wood and Marshall [2]). These early key findings include: drinking in seawater and its virtual suspension in freshwater [3]; a marked increase in glomerular filtration rate and altered tubular processing, which transform renal function from water conservation in seawater to Na+ and Cl− conservation and water excretion in freshwater [4–7]; the key role of increased prolactin secretion in facilitating “Na+ retention” (i.e., marked decreases in branchial and renal Na+ and Cl− losses) after transfer from seawater to freshwater [8–13]; the key role of increased cortisol secretion in upregulating branchial Na+K+ATPase activity for active salt excretion after transfer from freshwater to seawater [14]; the more rapid, almost instantaneous modulation of branchial Na+K+ATPase activity upon salinity transfer, originally reported by Towle et al. [15] and recently confirmed by Mancera and McCormick [16]; the dramatic reduction in unidirectional Na+ influx and efflux rates, measured radioisotopically, which occurs soon after seawater to freshwater transfer [3,10,17,18]; and the marked changes in the ultrastructure and histochemistry of the mitochondria-rich cells (MRCs, often called “chloride cells”) in the gills which are thought to reflect the changeover of their function from salt secretion in seawater to salt uptake in freshwater [19–22]. In 1950, Burns and Copeland [23] reported that the skin lining the opercular bone of seawater-adapted F. heteroclitus was richly endowed with MRCs.
