Article Synopsis
- Insulin-like growth factor 1 (Igf1) is crucial for ovarian maturation and has been found to significantly influence gonadal energy metabolism, particularly in silver pomfret.
- During the development of gonads, Igf1 is upregulated during important reproductive phases like vitellogenesis and sperm meiosis, primarily expressed in the somatic cells.
- The study shows that E2 and Igf1 together enhance the expression of genes related to energy production and reproduction, indicating their combined role in promoting successful gonadal development and reproductive outcomes in fish.
