Abstract：
:The potential effects of growth hormone (GH), prolactin (Prl), and triiodothyronine (T3) on gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity and corticosteroid receptor (CR) concentration (Bmax) and dissociation constant (Kd) were examined in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Compared to controls, fish injected with GH (ovine, 5.0 microgram g-1) had significantly greater gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity after 7 and 14 days. Gill CR Bmax and Kd were significantly elevated on day 7, but not day 14. T3 also significantly increased CR Bmax. The effect of GH on CR Bmax was also additive with T3 (5.0 microgram g-1) treatment. There was a synergistic effect on CR Bmax when purified coho salmon GH (csGH, 0.1 microgram g-1) was injected in combination with T3 (1.6 microgram g-1). Prl (ovine, 5.0 microgram g-1; purified coho salmon, 0.1 microgram g-1) did not significantly alter gill CR Bmax. Although Prl limited the increase in CR Bmax by GH, the effect was not signicant. T3 and Prl did not have an effect on Kd. GH significantly increased gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity, T3 administration did not have a significant effect, and Prl-treated fish had significantly lower gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity. The results indicate that T3 acts additively with GH, while Prl has no effect in regulating CR Bmax. An increase in cytosolic CR by GH and T3, but not Prl, may regulate gill responsiveness to cortisol and be an important mechanism in the endocrine control of physiological changes during the parr-smolt transformation.
