Liver is an important organ for glucose and lipid metabolism, immunity, and detoxification in fish. However, the gene regulatory network of postnatal liver development still remains unknown in teleost fish. In this study, we performed transcriptome analysis on the liver of at three stages.

However, the effects of RBP4 on hepatic lipid accumulation are still elusive in fish. In the present study, we cloned and characterized the RBP4 gene in Schizothorax prenanti (S.
