Possible role of calcitonin gene-related peptide in osmoregulation via the endocrine control of the gill in a teleost, the eel, Anguilla anguilla
Osmoregulation is a major challenge in aquatic animals involving a complex endocrine control. We investigated the potential role of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP, a neuromediator in mammals) in the endocrine control of the gill in a teleost, the eel. Transfer from freshwater to seawater indu...
