Since histological approaches can offer considerable information about the ovarian development of fish, and becausedifferent cytochemical/immunohistochemical tests are suitable tools for proving the presence of different macromolecules inseveral organs/tissues/cells, they can be good biomarkers of the reproductive mechanism in fish. The present study investigatesthe presence and distribution of carbohydrates, proteins, glycoconjugates, lipids, calcium, iron and vitellogenin in the bluefintuna, Thunnus thynnus oocytes during the synthesis of yolk (globules and granules) in the vitellogenic phase. During the initialvitellogenic phase, oocytes (diameter: 249 ± 21.87 mm) contain oil globules (or vacuoles) which consist exclusively of neutrallipids. During this phase very small yolk granules appear around the cytoplasm. Glycolipids, phospholipids, glycoproteins (Nacetyl-D-galactosamine –GalNAc– sugar residues), calcium, proteins rich in tyrosine, tryptophan, lysine, arginine, cysteine andcystine, as well as vitellogenin are the main constituents of the yolk granules and the follicular envelope of these real vitellogenicoocytes (diameter: 386 ± 79.04 mm). The intergranular cytoplasm of the vitellogenic oocytes also contain glycogen andglycoconjugates with Mannose –Man– and/or Glucose –Glc–; N-acetyl-D-galactosamine –GalNAc–; L-Fucose –Fuc– and Nacetyl-D-glucosamine –GlcNAc– and/or sialic acid –NANA– sugar residues.
