초록
조피볼락 갑상선 여포의 원시세포는 모체내 부화자어의 구강 아래쪽에 존재하는 때의 원형 여포 안에 존재하였다. 갑상선 여포는 구강 연골조직 아래쪽 제 1, 2,3 도입새동맥 부근에 흩어져 존재하고, 출산 직후에는 1${\sim}$3개 정도로 분화되어 있었다. 갑상선 여포의 수는 출산 직후(전장 6.3 mm)에 개체당 1.6${\pm}$0.8개였으며, 치어기로 전환하는 30일째에는 17.0${\pm}$2.1개, 50일째(전장 13.2 mm)에는 32.5${\pm}$6.9개로 그 수가 매우 많아졌다. 갑상선 여포의 직경은 출산 직후에 18.1${\pm}$0.6 ${\mu}$m였던 것이 출산후 30일째 30.5${\pm}$2.2 ${\mu}$m, 50일째 41.5${\pm}$1.7 ${\mu}$m로 그 크기가 증대되었다. 갑상선 여포세포의 높이는 출산직후 4.1${\pm}$0.2 ${\mu}$m, 20일째 5.7${\pm}$0.2 ${\mu}$m, 50일째 6.0${\pm}$0.2 ${\mu}$m로 성장하였다. 자치어의 전어체 내 갑상선호르몬을 분석한 결과, 난황을 가진 출산 직후에 호르몬을 함유하고 있었으며, 난황이 완전 흡수되는 5일째에는 그 농도가 급격히 감소하다가, 20일${\sim}$30일에 급격히 상승하여 50일째 최고치를 나타냈다. L-thyroxine (T$_4$)에 대한 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T$_3$) 농도는 출산 직후를 제외하고, 전 기간 동안 상대적으로 낮은 값을 나타냈다.
Black rockfish Sebastes schlegeli is one of scopaenid fish giving birth to yolk-sac larvae and distributed around the coast of Korea and Japan, and is one of main species which is cultured in Korea. The difffrentiation of thyroid gland and the changes of thyroid hormones (THs) concentrations in the whole body during early development of this species were examined and the relationship between thyroid gland and their growth will be presented. Total length (TL) and body weight (BW) of the larva at the parturition were 6.3${\pm}$0.1 mm and 3.6${\pm}$0.1 mg, respectively. The larvae transformed to juvenile after 30th day after parturition. According to Hoshiai(1977), they had gown into stage Fl (TL 13.2${\pm}$0.9 mm, BW 46.5${\pm}$1.5 mg) at 50th day. The thyroid gland of black rockfish was first observed histologically in hatching larvae in mother fish. The larvae just after parturition have 1${\sim}$3 of the thyroid follicles diffrentiated between basibranchial bone and ventral aorta, at the base of the first gill arch. In this time, thyroid follic1e number (TFN),thyroid follicle diameter (TFD) and thyroid cell height (TCH) were 1.6${\pm}$0.8 pieces/inds., 18.1${\pm}$0.6 ${\mu}$m and 4.1${\pm}$0.2 ${\mu}$m, respectively. TFN and TFD at 50th day were increased to 32.5${\pm}$6.9 pieces/inds. and 41.5${\pm}$1.7 ${\mu}$m, respectively. These results indicate that they are related to the growth of black rockfish during early development. However, TCH indicates that the activity of thyroid gland appearedat special day, eg. 5, 20 and 50th day, suggesting that TCH may have some role in the physiological activity. L-thyroxine (T$_4$)concentration decreased sharply to 10 days after parturition, and at 25th day (metamorphosis stage) increased markedly to 3.44${\pm}$0.93ng/g fish. After this time, T$_4$ concentration decreased at 35th day, but then increasedagain to the highest concentration, 5.63${\pm}$0.70ng/g fish. 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T$_3$) concentration declined sharply from just after pafurition (4.96${\pm}$1.90 ng/g fish) to 5th day (0.30${\pm}$0.07 ng/g fish). However T$_3$ concentration increased markedly to 0.95${\pm}$0.11 ng/g fish at 30th day and then did not significantly change until 45th day, increased also sharply to 1.67${\pm}$0.23 ng/g fish at 50th day.
