The hypoxia adaptation strategy of the big-belly seahorses (Hippocampus abdominalis) with tuft gills by Long-Wu Jia, Le-Le Zhang, Hong-Wei Yang, Chun-Yu Hou, Lin Shi, Yu-Ping Hou, Guo-Dong Zheng, Xiao-Lei Su, Kai Wang

“…Ultimately, we identified 5 significantly (P < 0.05) down-regulated (itgav, itga6a, itga1, pcna, and adcy9) and 5 significantly (P < 0.05) up-regulated (gusb, src, cdc20, ccnb1, and plk1) core hub genes related to gill remodeling. This study demonstrates that BBS is sensitive to hypoxia, and its unique tuft gills respond to hypoxia through local gill remodel, providing valuable insights for the breeding of hypoxia-tolerance seahorses.…”
