The Involvement of Thyroid Hormone Metabolism in Gilthead Sea Bream (Sparus auratus) Osmoregulation

: We have investigated the effect of adaptation to low salinity water on the thyroid status of the euryhaline teleost, Sparus auratus. We show that, following low salinity adaptation, the plasma T4 concentration increases and branchial deiodination activities of T4, T3, and rT3 decrease. Moreover, b...
