摘要

Abstract

Reproduction is subtlety regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonad (HPG) axis in vertebrates. Pituitary gland is the center of the HPG axis

while pituitary gonadotropins follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) were identified the key elements of the HPG axis in teleost and mammal. Morphology

cell lines

and gonadotropins cell localization of female turbot and mouse pituitary were determined at mature stage to illustrate the anatomical difference and cell characteristics in this study. Results show that turbot pituitary is chicken heart-shaped

dorsoventral

located on the ventral surface of the diencephalon. The mouse pituitary is oval

located in the pituitary fossa of the sella turcica at the skull base. Two well‍-‍distinguished areas adenohypophysis (AH) and neurohypophysis (NH) in pituitary were identified in turbot and mouse. Turbot AH comprised the rostral pars distalis (RPD)

proximal pars distalis (PPD)

and pars intermedia (PI). NH was not pronounced and with finger-like protrusions into PPD. However

mouse AH only comprised the pars distalis (PD) and PI. NH distribution was semicircular. Three main types of cells (acidophilic

basophilic

and chromophobic cells) were distributed in the mouse PD region

whereas appeared in the turbot PPD

RPD

and PI. Moreover

the percentage of mouse chromophobic and basophilic cells was higher and lower than that of turbot

respectively. The diameter of the aforementioned three cells in the mouse was significantly higher than turbot.

fshβ‍

- ‍and

lhβ‍

-immunoreactive signals were identified in turbot-distinct pituitary cells that primarily occupied the peripheral and central regions of AH. However

mouse

fsh

- and

-immunoreactive cells were expressed in the same cells and present in the PD. These results demonstrate the significantly difference of pituitary morphology

cell lines and gonadotropins (

fshβ

and

lhβ

) location in female turbot and mouse. These differences help for fully understand the evolution and endocrinological functions of pituitary.
