| Research Abstract |
It has been indicated that somatolactin(SLa) would function to regulate triglycerides in the muscles and liver. The purpose of this study is to verify the function and explore a possibility for its application to fisheries. Using the mutant and transgenic strains of the SLa gene which were bred under various breeding conditions, we found that the internal/external environments(age and foods) have more effects on percent hepatic triglycerides than the SLa expression.
