“…Eels were escaping light by ascending during dusk and descending during dawn at depths between 200 and 700 m, both in continental and deep-sea waters which probably persists as far as the spawning grounds. So, besides the effects of swimming as discussed in this study, the diel vertical migration in the ocean can be expected to have effects on sexual maturation through the alternation in pressure [46], temperature (Tsukamoto K, presented at the Aquaculture Europe 2008 symposium organised by the European Aquaculture Society in Krakow, Poland; [38]) and avoidance of light [47]. …”

“…Only CAT activity significantly increases (Table 3) which is probably not sufficient to compensate the expected high increase in HO • during swimming activity under pressure. However, estrogens, which are known to exhibit antioxidant properties (Vina et al 2006;Sugioka et al 1987), increase in females after pressure exposure (Sébert et al 2007). So the hypothesis is that during migration females could use (among others) sexual hormones as antioxidant systems when males would use the reversal effect of hydrostatic pressure to preserve themselves against ROS.…”

“…Much remains to be understood about the endocrine pathways controlling aspects of reproduction such as puberty and gametogenesis in teleosts. Gonad development and gametogenesis are influenced by external signals such as temperature and photoperiod (Zanuy et al, 1986;Taranger et al, 2010) and, in eels, can be influenced by swimming behavior and hydrostatic pressure (Sébert et al, 2007;Palstra et al, 2008). These external signals trigger the release of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GNRH) by the hypothalamus which controls the release of pituitary follicle stimulation hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).…”
