Hepcidin gene is widely expressed in various fish, suggesting that this antimicrobial peptide is a very important component in the innate immune system. Large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea) is one of the important economic species of marine-cultured fish but knowledge of its innate immune mechanism is lacking. In this study, we characterize a P. crocea hepcidin gene named as PC-hepc. It consists...
Urotensin II (U-II), originally identified as a fish neuropeptide, exerts a broad spectrum of biological functions and is considered to be the most potent vasoconstrictor in mammals. Recently the intense staining of U-II-like immunoreactivity within coronary atheroma and the effect of mitogenic in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) suggest that U-II is possibly a proatherogenic factor in the pathogenesis...
