away to evoke a specific physiological response”
+ Definition too restrictive
= sometimes transport by lymph or by diffusion
= some hormones act on own tissue or even cell
‘Types of hormones:
peptides
proteins
elycoproteines
tyrosine-derivates
fatty acid-derivates
steroid-derivates
+ Endocrine system: The term “endocrine” means intemally secreting. The
endocrine glands are ductless and located in various region of the body, secreting
+ Hormone: “organic substance synthesized within specific endocrine organs and
then secreted into the bloodstream to act on specific target tissues some distance
— not always produced in endocrine glands (c.g, neurosecretory neurons)

Mechanism of Hormone Action
Agiven hormone affects seo tissue cells or organs. (target
cells/ a organs)
Hormone bind/attach to a specific a receptor inside the cell or in
its plasma membrane.

3/16/2022Hormones in Artificial Breeding of Fish
Hormone induced spawning of fish is nearly 75 years old!
Surprisingly, many techniques haven't changed much during this period.
Fish such as carp, catfish, seabass, redfish and snaok were used as test fish
Induced spawning for many other fish became merely a modificaiton of what was
already being done,
+ synthetic spawning hormones - increasingly used due to ther efficacy and
convenience
+ Banerjee et al, (1989) succeeded in the purification of pituitary
gonadotropic hormone from Channo punctatus and Catia catl.
Of all the mammalian hormones tested on fish, chorionic gonadotropin
{(Co)- successful because CG behaves asa lutenising hormones (LH)
+ Synahorin (@ mixture of CG and mammalian pituitary extract) in
‘combination with pituitary gave positive results in rohu
