Fish Neuroendocrinology provides a current and critical synthesis of the neurohormonal pathways and endocrine signals responsible for maintaining homeostasis in an aquatic environment and for regulating the functional systems that allow for the highly diverse life histories and reproductive tactics of fish. In addition to the key homeostatic interactions between the brain and pituitary gland, this volume explores the communication between the immune and neuroendocrine systems, and the interplay between the endocrine and nervous systems that control key body processes such as fluid balance, food intake, and gut function. As the first comprehensive reference in the discipline, this volume will serve as an excellent resource for comparative physiologists, endocrinologists, neuroanatomists and behaviourists interested in understanding the reciprocal actions between the nervous and endocrine systems. |
