Mycotoxin zearalenone induced gonadal impairment and altered gene expression in the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis of adult female zebrafish (<scp><i>Danio rerio</i></scp>)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
) on hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis associated reproductive function using zebrafish model. ZEA was exposed to female zebrafish for 21 days to assess growth indices such as condition factor, hepatosomatic index, gonadosomatic index and caspase 3 activity. Further, expression of estrogen receptor (ER) α and CYP19a1b genes in the brain, ERα and vitellogenin (Vtg) genes in the liver and follicle-stimulating hormone receptor, luteinizing hormone receptor, ERα, steroidogenic acute regulatory protein, 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD), 17-βHSD and CYP19a1 genes in the ovary were also investigated. Our results showed that there were no significant changes in the condition factor and hepatosomatic index, whereas a significant (P < .05) reduction in the gonadosomatic index, increase in caspase 3 activities and Vtg expression was observed at higher concentration. However, no significant changes were observed at lower treatment levels. Further, we also observed significant (P < .05) upregulation in ERα, Vtg, luteinizing hormone receptor, steroidogenic acute regulatory protein, 3β-HSD, 17β-HSD, CYP19a1 and CYP19a1b genes in treatment groups with higher levels of ZEA. Moreover, in histopathological examination, we observed oocyte atresia and oocyte membrane detachment in ovaries at the highest concentration. In conclusion, the present study revealed the negative impact of ZEA on zebrafish reproductive system by involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis-associated reproductive function.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
