Description
Vitellogenin, the egg yolk precursor protein, is induced by estrogens. On the other hand, environmental estrogens are known to disrupt endocrine system in animals. Recently, vitellogenin has proven to be an ideal marker for enviromental estrogen.
Antigen Characterization
- Type: Primary
- Application: ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay),Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry, Immunofluorescence
- Species: Japanese Medaka
- Recombinant: Yes
Human Diseases
- Endocrine Disruption: Vitellogenin levels in fish serve as biomarkers for assessing exposure to environmental estrogens, which can have implications for human health due to the endocrine-disrupting effects of certain chemicals.
- Reproductive Health Issues: Elevated vitellogenin levels may indicate potential reproductive health risks associated with endocrine disruptors that can affect both aquatic and terrestrial organisms, including humans.
Cellular Signaling Pathways
- Estrogen Signaling Pathway: Vitellogenin is primarily regulated by estrogen, which binds to estrogen receptors, activating downstream signaling pathways that lead to vitellogenin synthesis in the liver.
- Nuclear Receptor Pathway: Involves the interaction of estrogen receptors with specific DNA sequences to modulate gene expression related to vitellogenin production.
- Apoptosis Pathway: Disruption of normal vitellogenin signaling can lead to altered cell survival and apoptosis in reproductive tissues
