Résumé
Arginine vasotocin (VT) is the basic neurohypophysial nonapeptide hormone in teleosts. VT is also distributed in the ovary of the catfish Heteropneustes fossilis and induces final oocyte maturation (FOM) and ovulation by stimulating the maturation-inducing hormone (MIH). The present study reports the effects of cAMP (0.5 mM), phosphodiesterase inhibitors (IBMX -0.5 mM and theophylline- 0.5 mM), the inositol triphosphate (IP3) receptor inhibitor heparin (10 μg/mL) and the Ca
