Multiple vitellogenins and their unique roles in marine teleosts (2003, unknown): “The change in pH is probably activated by maturation -inducing steroid hormone (MIH), as MIH induces cytoplasmic maturation, including yolk protein hydrolysis and ooplasm hydration, in oocytes of several teleost species in vitro (Hiramatsu et al. 2002; Patiño and Sullivan 2002).”
Multiple piscine vitellogenins: biomarkers of fish exposure to estrogenic endocrine disruptors in aquatic environments (2006, unknown): “Fish held at 4ºC produced Vg2 but not Vg1, while both Vgs were induced in fish exposed at 15ºC and RT.”
Ovarian follicle growth, maturation, and ovulation in teleost fish (2004, background): “…additional Vg-derived yolk protein, the β ′- component, was identified in salmonids, barfin flounder, and white perch (Markert and Vanstone 1971; Matsubara and Sawano 1995; Hiramatsu and Hara 1996; Hiramatsu et al. 2002ac), suggesting that this yolk protein is generally present in teleost egg yolk.”
