Tetraploid genes of leptin (leptin-AI, -AII, -BI and -BII) in goldfish: Molecular cloning, bioinformatics analysis, tissue distribution and differential regulation of transcript expression by glucocorticoids
In mammals, leptin is an endocrine hormone involved in the regulation of feeding and energy metabolism, and glucocorticoids were previously reported to induce leptin gene expression. However, the link between glucocorticoids and leptin in fish has not been investigated. Goldfish are tetraploid teleo...
