Transcriptome analysis revealed gene expression feminization of testis after exogenous tetrodotoxin administration in pufferfish Takifugu flavidus
Abstract Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a deadly neurotoxin and usually accumulates in large amounts in the ovaries but is non-toxic or low toxic in the testis of pufferfish. The molecular mechanism underlying sexual dimorphism accumulation of TTX in ovary and testis, and the relationship between TTX accumul...
