1. Pyrenean brown trout (Salmo trutta fario) from 200 to 1700 g were analysed in lots of 12 specimens in March, April, July and October 1988, and in January 1989. 2. Hormones (insulin, glucagon, cortisol) and metabolites (glucose, lactate, proteins, triglycerides) were determined in plasma. 3. Body parameters (length and weight) increased progressively, while plasma metabolites and hormones were more dependent on seasonal and sexual conditions. 4. Plasma insulin presented a maximum in spring (11 ng/ml) and a minimum in January (5 ng/ml). A clear relationship between insulin and annual growth rates was established. Plasma glucagon showed annual values between 700 and 1500 pg/ml, with significant seasonal variations. The molar ratio glucagon/insulin oscillated from 0.21 in January to 0.38 in July. 5. Plasma glucose variations agreed with those of pancreatic hormones, especially evident with glucagon levels. Proteins were more uniform throughout year, and plasma lipids were especially associated to the reproductive state in females.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D005934 Glucagon A 29-amino acid pancreatic peptide derived from proglucagon which is also the precursor of intestinal GLUCAGON-LIKE PEPTIDES. Glucagon is secreted by PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS and plays an important role in regulation of BLOOD GLUCOSE concentration, ketone metabolism, and several other biochemical and physiological processes.

D014337 Trout Various fish of the family SALMONIDAE, usually smaller than salmon. They are mostly restricted to cool clear freshwater. Some are anadromous. They are highly regarded for their handsome colors, rich well-flavored flesh, and gameness as an angling fish. The genera Salvelinus, Salmo, and ONCORHYNCHUS have been introduced virtually throughout the world. Chars,Salvelinus,Char
