With this aim, we have examined the effects of an increased ... -
Effects of cholecystokinin (CCK) on gut motility in the stomachless fish ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta)
Le, Hoang Thi My Dung; Lie, Kai Kristoffer; Giroud-Argoud, Justine; Rønnestad, Ivar; Sæle, Øystein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06-07)Cholecystokinin (CCK) is well-known as a key hormone that inhibits stomach emptying and stimulates midgut motility in gastric species. However, the function of CCK related to gut motility in agastric fish, especially in ... -
Functional modifications associated with gastrointestinal tract organogenesis during metamorphosis in Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus)
Gomes, Ana Silva; Kamisaka, Yuko; Harboe, Torstein; Power, Deborah M.; Rønnestad, Ivar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-19)Background: Flatfish metamorphosis is a hormone regulated post-embryonic developmental event that transforms a symmetric larva into an asymmetric juvenile. In altricial-gastric teleost fish, differentiation of the stomach ... -
Loss of stomach, loss of appetite? Sequencing of the ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta) genome and intestinal transcriptomic profiling illuminate the evolution of loss of stomach function in fish

Agastric fish are ... -
Methionine deficiency does not increase polyamine turnover through depletion of hepatic S-adenosylmethionine in juvenile Atlantic salmon
Espe, Marit; Andersen, Synne Marte; Holen, Elisabeth; Rønnestad, Ivar; Veiseth-Kent, Eva; Zerrahn, Jens-Erik; Aksnes, Anders (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-10)During the last few decades, plant protein ingredients such as soya proteins have replaced fishmeal in the diets of aquacultured species. This may affect the requirement and metabolism of methionine as soya contains less ... -
