Together with Erill Ager-Wick, Kjetil Hodne and Finn-Arne Weltzien, we have published a new article entitled Plasticity in medaka gonadotropes via cell proliferation and phenotypic conversion in Journal of Endocrinology.
Using a combination of in vivo and in vitro experiments, our results reveal high plasticity of gonadotropes due to both estradiol-sensitive proliferation and Gnrh-promoted phenotypic conversion, and moreover show that gonadotropes lose part of their identity when kept in cell culture.
