Fish reproduction: An ecologically relevant indicator of endocrine disruption
Abstract
Endocrine-disrupting compounds have the potential to alter hormone pathways that regulate reproductive processes. With the exception of endocrine effects leading to reproductive impairment and population declines in a few wildlife species (e.g., Great Lake [USA] bald eagles, Lake Apopka [Florida, USA] American alligators), the ecological implications of exposure to endocrine disrupting compounds has not been adequately investigated. For example, male fish exposed to estrogenic compounds show induced production of vitellogenin, an egg yolk precursor, but the biological significance of elevated vitellogenin levels is speculative. The development of techniques to predict and more accurately assess the ecological relevance of exposure to endocrine-disrupting compounds is needed. In this review, we focus on fish reproduction as an ecologically relevant indicator of endocrine disruption, specifically estrogenic activity. The following will provide a brief review of gonochoristic reproductive and endocrine physiology, as well as outline some of the commonly used techniques to screen for estrogenic activity in fish. Last, a proposed model reproductive assay using Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) is presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
