Gulf toadfish (Opsanus beta) gill neuroepithelial cells in response to hypoxia exposure
Neuroepithelial cells (NECs) within the fish gill contain the monoamine neurochemical serotonin (5-HT), sense changes in the partial pressure of...

Effects of structural remodelling on gill physiology
The complex relationships between the structure and function of fish gills have been of interest to comparative physiologists for many years....
-
Cell proliferation and regeneration in the gill
Seminal studies from the early 20th century defined the structural changes associated with development and regeneration of the gills in goldfish at...

Fish gill chemosensing: knowledge gaps and inconsistencies
In this review, we explore the inconsistencies in the data and gaps in our knowledge that exist in what is currently known regarding gill...

Structure and function of the larval teleost fish gill
The fish gill is a multifunctional organ that is important in multiple physiological processes such as gas transfer, ionoregulation, and...

Normoxia exposure reduces hemoglobin concentration and gill size in a hypoxia-tolerant tropical freshwater fish
Hypoxia is a widespread environmental stressor that shapes fish physiology and morphology. Plasticity in traits that improve oxygen uptake and...

What frog gill resorption brings: loss of function, cell death, and metabolic reorganization
BackgroundAnuran metamorphosis, which is driven by thyroid hormone (TH)-mediated processes, orchestrates intricate morphological and functional...

Can Geometric Morphometry of Pupal Gill Filaments Be Used as a Tool for Identification of the Simulium ornatum Species-Group (Simuliidae: Diptera)?
AbstractAccurate species identification is the first step in biological research. The configuration of the pupal gill filaments (e.g., the number of...

Subcellular localization of Na+/K+-ATPase isoforms resolved by in situ hybridization chain reaction in the gill of chum salmon at freshwater and seawater
The Na + /K + -ATPase (NKA) α1-isoforms were examined by in situ hybridization chain reaction (ISHCR) using short hairpin DNAs, and we showed triple...

Histological, Physiological and Transcriptomic Analysis Reveal the Acute Alkalinity Stress of the Gill and Hepatopancreas of Litopenaeus vannamei
The pacific white shrimp ( Litopenaeus vannamei ) has gradually become a promising economic species in the development of saline-alkali water fishery....

A host choosy gill parasite (Dactylogyrus spp.) in fish: an insight into host-parasite interaction for develo** control strategies
Dactylogyrosis is caused by more than 900 reported species of Dactylogyrus (gill fluke), mostly in Cyprinoidei fish leading to low to severe...

Evaluation of novel PCR-based method to assess gill injuries in fish caused by the cnidarian Ectopleura larynx
Gill disease is a major threat to aquaculture of Atlantic salmon, with an unknown and likely underestimated contribution from cnidarians such as...

Effects of salinity on gill histology in sailfin velifera (Poecilia velifera)
Fish live in aquatic areas with varying salinity from fresh water to seawater. Gills are one of the most important osmoregulatory organs for...

Effects of hypoxia on the gill morphological structure, apoptosis and hypoxia-related gene expression in blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala)
The blunt snout bream ( Megalobrama amblycephala ) is a typical hypoxia-sensitive fish, and hypoxia stress leads to reduced vitality and yield during...

Morphological comparison of the detailed structure of gill rakers from three different feeding habits of marine fish species
The feeding habits and habitat of different fish species influence the morphology and functions of their gill rakers. This study used gross anatomy...

Gill transcriptome of the yellow peacock bass (Cichla ocellaris monoculus) exposed to contrasting physicochemical conditions
Freshwater habitats of the Neotropics exhibit a gradient from relatively neutral, ion-rich whitewater to acidic, ion-poor blackwater. Closely related...

Response of CRH system in brain and gill of marine medaka to seawater acidification
Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is mainly secreted by the hypothalamus to regulate stress when environmental factors change. Gills contact with...

Gill surface area allometry does not constrain the body mass scaling of maximum oxygen uptake rate in the tidepool sculpin, Oligocottus maculosus
The gill oxygen limitation hypothesis (GOLH) suggests that hypometric scaling of metabolic rate in fishes is a consequence of oxygen supply...
