CULTIVATE YY SUPERMALE FISH FOR THE PRODUCTION OF GENETICALLY ALL MALE ZIG-ZAG EEL (MASTACEMBELUS ARMATUS) BY MAS-GM TECHNIQUE

Cultivate YY supermale fish for the production of genetically all male zig-zag eel (Mastacembelus armatus) by MAS-GM technique

Mastacembelus armatus Giftware is an important economic fish in China.Since males grow faster and larger than females, breeding monosex M.armatus has great value in the aquaculture industry.Cultivating YY fish is the key to producing genetically all male M.armatus.However, there have been no reports on production of fertile YY supermale, and the pr

Susceptibility of pancreatic beta cells to fatty acids is regulated by LXR/PPARalpha-dependent stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase.

Chronically elevated levels of fatty acids-FA can cause beta cell death in vitro.Beta cells vary in their individual susceptibility to FA-toxicity.Rat beta cells were previously shown to better resist FA-toxicity in conditions that increased triglyceride formation or mitochondrial and peroxisomal FA-oxidation, possibly reducing cytoplasmic levels o
