Evidence of crosstalk between estrogens and peroxisomal pathways in brown trout.
VtgA and ERα mRNA levels increased after 1, 10 and 50 μM of ethinylestradiol (EE2).
ERβ-1, catalase and urate oxidase mRNA levels decreased after estrogenic stimuli.
Estrogenic effects in VtgA, ERα and Uox mRNA levels were reverted by ICI 182,780.
Immunofluorescence/electron microscopy shows smaller peroxisomes after 50 μM of EE2.
