Effects of the native GnRHs and various agonists have been evaluated on the spawning of an Indian catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis. This study tested salmon (s) GnRH agonists and mammalian (m) GnRH agonists where a D-amino acid residue was substituted alone at position 6 or the C-terminal was modified with ethylamide. GnRH agonists with a combination of these structural modifications were also evaluated separately for their effect on the spawning of the catfish. Native sGnRH, [Pro9 NEt]-sGnRH agonist and chicken (c) GnRH-II exhibited similar activity and induced spawning within 14–18 h at a dose of 100 g kg–1 body weight (BW). [D-Lys6]-sGnRH agonist and [D-Lys6 Pro9 NEt]-sGnRH agonist, induced spawning at a dose of 100 g kg–1 BW and 1 g kg–1 BW, respectively. The most notable observation in this study was the ineffectiveness of [D-Ala6]-mGnRH agonist and [Des Gly10 D-Ala6 Pro9 NEt]-mGnRH agonist. The results obtained suggest that substitution at position 6 alone, and in conjunction with an ethylamide-based modification at the C-terminal in the native sGnRH structure, increases the potency of the tested agonists to induce spawning in the catfish. This study also discusses the potential use and incorporation of cGnRH-II for the development of more generic spawning induction therapies. 相似文献

Drinking in freshwater juvenile salmon was investigated in response to vasodilation by sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide donor, which significantly increased blood vessel diameter in Atlantic salmon alevins. Atlantic salmon fry (1–3 g), as previously shown, drank at a significant rate in fresh water which doubled to about 1.2 ml kg–1 h–1 following injection of SNP (100 mol kg–1), through dilation of body vasculature and activation of a vasoconstrictive mechanism, the endogenous renin angiotensin system (RAS). This response was 50% inhibited by injection of about 100 mg kg–1 enalapril. Fry increased drinking in response to SNP administered in the water, though the concentration required for maximal response, 1.6 mmol l–1, was much greater than for injected SNP; this response was also inhibited by enalapril injection. Possible involvement of the gill vasculature and branchial osmoreceptors or baroreceptors in control of the drinking response is discussed. 相似文献

Sub-lethal cardiac responses of brown trout alevins (Salmo trutta L.) were determined in response to aqueous extracts of the cyanobacterium Microcystis strains PCC 7813 (microcystins detectable by HPLC) and CYA 43 (no microcystins detectable by HPLC) and to the purified cyanobacterial hepatotoxin, microcystin-LR (MC-LR) at concentrations of 5, 50 and 500 g microcystin-LR equivalents l–1. Responses were determined using a flow chamber and video camera attached to a low power microscope. Heart rate in brown trout alevins was acutely sensitive to cyanobacterial extracts and significant increases were observed within 15–60 sec of exposure to aqueous extracts, although no change was observed on exposure to purified MC-LR. Stroke volume increased in all treatments at 50 and 500 g MC-LR equivalents l–1, which may, at least in part, have been due to vasodilation of the yolk-sac blood vessels. Cardiac output increased significantly at all three concentrations of cyanobacterial cell extracts but not at the lowest concentration of MC-LR, although the rate increased at levels at/or above 50 g l–1. Increased heart rate, stroke volume and cardiac output occurred at environmentally relevant microcystin concentrations of Microcystis PCC 7813 and CYA 43 aqueous extracts. 相似文献

Embryonic development and larval hatching of the monogenean Diplectanum aequans, gill parasite of sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax, was studied in relation to different prophylactic treatments. Groups of eggs of D. aequans were submitted to different in vitro treatments: formalin (300 and 100 L L–1 per 1 hour), Neguvon® (trichlorphon 0.2 mg L–1 per 48 hours) and dehydration for 4 and 8 hours. Percentages of hatched larvae, aborted larvae and undeveloped embryos were estimated in comparison with the control group. Results showed that 300 L L–1 formalin and dehydration treatments were able to reduce larval hatching significantly, while Neguvon® and 100 L L–1 formalin treatments had no effect. 相似文献

The endemic, anadromous cyprinidChalcalburnus tarichi is the only fish species known to occur in alkaline Lake Van (Eastern Anatolia, Turkey). EightC. tarichi were maintained individually in Lake Van water (17 – 19°C; pH 9.8; 153 mEq·I–1 total alkalinity; 22 total salinity) and tank water samples analyzed for 24 h in 2 to 4 h intervals. At zero time, < 1µM ammonia was present and urea was undetectable in the tank water; at 24 h, total ammonia and urea made up 114±32 and 35±25µM, respectively. Over the experimental period, ammonia-N and urea-N excretion averaged 1041±494 and 607±169moles·kg–1 fish·h–1, respectively. The extent of urea excretion was highly variable between specimens. Uric acid excretion was not detectable.Urea was present at high concentrations in all tissues and plasma (25 – 35moles·g–1·ml–1) of freshly caughtC. tarichi; total ammonia content of the tissues was by a factor of 1.9 (liver) to 3.0 (brain) lower. High arginase activity (2.4±0.2 U·min–1·g–1) was detected in the liver ofC. tarichi but ornithine carbamoylphosphate transferase, a key enzyme of the ornithine-urea-cycle, was absent. Ureagenesis is likely through degradation of arginine and/or uricolysis. High glutamine synthetase activity (11±0.6 U·min–1·g–1) and low ammonia content in brain suggest that, like other teleosts,C. tarichi has an efficient ammonia detoxification in the brain, but in no other tissue.Nitrogenous waste excretion at alkaline pH is discussed. The ability ofC. tarichi to excrete high levels of ammonia at extremely alkaline pH is unique among teleosts studied so far. The mechanism of ammonia excretion under Lake Van conditions remains to be elucidated. 相似文献

High zinc diet of 2000 mg kg–1 was fed to common carp (Cyprinus carpio), grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) and tilapia (Oreochromis aureus) for 8 weeks to compare the accumulation of Zn in fish. It was found that accumulation of zinc from diet by grass carp and tilapia was low when compared to common carp. The largest difference occurred in digestive tract tissue. The digestive tract tissue of common carp had a large pool of stored zinc, the mean storable capacity is about 1500 g Zn g–1 fresh tissue, and the time needed to saturate the tissue when feeding 2000 mg Zn kg–1 diet is about 8 weeks. The accumulated Zn in the digestive tract tissue of common carp was released when the dietary Zn was reduced to normal level (50 mg kg–1) or deficient level (4 mg kg–1) for 4 weeks.Subcellular fractionation results indicate that Zn accumulated in digestive tract tissue of common carp was accumulated mainly in the nuclei/cell debris fraction. Exposure to a high Zn diet induced some metallothionein-like substance in the digestive tract tissue and the hepatopancreas of common carp, but the amount was very low when compared with the amount of Zn accumulated in the nuclei/cell debris fraction. 相似文献

Asian catfish, Clarias batrachus, were fed semi-purified basaldiets containing 0, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 3 and 5 mg biotin kg–1diet for 60 days. Fish fed the control diet (no biotin) showed(P < 0.05) higher mortality, lower weight gain, specificgrowth rate (SGR), feed efficiency ratio (FER) and protein efficiencyratio (PER) than in fish fed diets supplemented with biotin. The highestweight gain, SGR, FER and PER were noticed in fish fed 1 mg biotinkg–1, followed by 0.5, 5, 3 and 0.1 mg biotinkg–1, except for PER (followed by 0.5, 5, 0.1 and 3 mgbiotin kg–1). Quadratic analysis showed that the optimumdietary biotin requirements for maximal weight gain, PER and PER were2.49, 2.54 and 2.52 mg kg–1, respectively. Liver biotinconcentrations were influenced by levels of biotin in the diet.Concentration of liver biotin increased as level of dietarysupplementation increased and no biotin was detected in the liver of thecontrol fish. Liver pyruvate carboxylase and acetyl CoA carboxylaseactivities were higher in fish fed biotin-supplemented diets than incontrols. Biotin concentrations, pyruvate carboxylase and acetyl CoAcarboxylase activities in liver associated with normal growth rangedfrom 10.59 to 10.66 g g–1, 147.97 to 148.18 units mgprotein–1 and 12.76 to 12.78 units mg protein–1, respectively. Biotin deficiency symptoms such as anorexia, darkskin colour and convulsions were observed in fish fed the control diet.The optimum dietary biotin requirement for maximal growth of C.batrachus is about 2.49 mg kg–1 diet. 相似文献

In two separate experiments, haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) larvae were raised under different photoperiods (24L : 0D or 15L : 9D), or different combinations of tank colour (black or white) and light intensity (1.1 mol s–1 m–2 or 18 mol s–1 m–2). Growth (0.8% day–1 in standard length; 2.9% day–1 in body area) and survival (2%) were not significantly different between photoperiod treatments after 35 days. Larval survival was greater in white versus black tanks after 41 days (2% versus l%, respectively). Growth of larvae was impaired in black tanks at low (1.1 mol s–1 m–2) light intensity (0.8% day–1 in standard length and 2.2% day–1 in body area versus 1.1% day 21 in standard length and 3.1% day–1 in body area, for all other treatments). Transmission and reflection of light was low in black tanks at low incident light, and there was very little upwelling light. The resultant poor prey to background contrast probably resulted in larvae being unable to consume sufficient food to sustain a level of growth comparable to that in other treatments. 相似文献

A study was undertaken to investigate the effects of graded dietary levels and different types of carnitine on hybrid striped bass (Morone chrysops × M. saxatilis %) fed different levels of lipid. An incomplete factorial design was utilized in which diets containing lipid at either 5 or 10% were supplemented with l-carnitine at 0, 500, or 1000 mg kg–1 diet, dl-carnitine at 1000 mg kg–1 diet, or carnitine chloride to provide 1000 mg carnitine kg–1 diet. Juvenile hybrid striped bass (3.3 g fish–1) were stocked into individual 38-l aquaria connected as a brackish water (6), recirculating system and fed each diet in triplicate for 9 weeks.Supplementation of the diet with 1000 mg carnitine kg–1 increased muscle carnitine from 35.5 to 47.7 g g–1 tissue. Carnitine supplementation did not result in increased weight gain regardless of carnitine level or type; however, weight gain showed a significant (p<0.05) response to dietary lipid with fish fed diets containing 10% lipid growing 34% more than fish fed diets with 5% lipid. The hepatosomatic index also was unaffected by diet, but the intraperitoneal fat (IPF) ratio was significantly elevated (5.1 vs 3.2%) in fish fed diets with 10% lipid compared to those fed diets with 5% lipid. Fish fed diets containing 1000 mg carnitine kg–1 had increased IPF ratio values at 4.7% compared to 3.9% for fish fed the basal diet. Liver lipid also was responsive to dietary treatment, increasing from 6.7 to 8.8% of wet weight as dietary lipid increased from 5 to 10%. The relative quantities of triglycerides, free fatty acids and phospholipids in muscle and liver were not influenced by carnitine level, carnitine type or dietary lipid level. Supplementation of carnitine does not appear to be beneficial to hybrid striped bass based on either growth performance or body composition. 相似文献

A recombinant carp growth hormone (rcGH) was used to develop for a GH radioreceptor binding assay in the goldfish (Carassius auratus). Specific binding of125I-rcGH to goldfish liver membranes was a pH, time, temperature, and membrane protein dependent process. Scatchard and LIGAND analysis indicated a single class of high affinity and low capacity binding site, with an association constant (Ka) of 1.9×1010 M–1 and a maximum binding capacity (Bmax) of 9 fmol mg–1 protein. Liver tissue displayed the highest125I-rcGH binding of all the tissues examined. Displacement of125I-rcGH with various unlabeled teleost and mammalian GHs and prolactins revealed that the goldfish hepatic binding site was highly specific for teleost GH. Intraperitoneal administration of 0.1, 1.0, and 10 g rcGH g–1 body weight to hypophysectomized goldfish resulted in a 27, 52, and 68% decrease in total binding sites, respectively. Injection of a high dose of rat prolactin (rPRL) (5 g rPRL g–1 body weight) also resulted in a 32% decrease in total binding sites. These results suggest that endogenous GH may have a role in the regulation of its own receptors in the goldfish. 相似文献

Doppler flow probes were fitted around the ventral aorta of rainbow trout, which were exposed to combinations of pH and aluminum (pH 5.1–6.2, Al 0–80 g l–1) for 60 h. Fish accumulated Al at the gill and exhibited decreased blood Na+, Cl–, and Ca2+ concentrations, and increased K+, hematocrit, hemoglobin, glucose, and lactate, indicating increasing ionoregulatory disturbance with increasing Al concentration. Fish exposed to ambient water (6.2) or low-pH (5.3) water without Al exhibited slight reductions in heart rates, as well as increased stroke volume, resulting in little variation in cardiac output. In the presence of Al (20 to 40 g l–1) at low pH (5.1–5.3), fish increased their heart rate slightly and generally maintained their stroke volume, resulting in increased cardiac output in the first two days of exposure. At the highest Al concentration (80 g l–1, pH 5.1), tachycardia was observed, concomitant with a decrease in stroke volume. The ionoregulatory imbalance and resulting increased blood viscosity explain these increases in heart rate rather than stroke volume in fish exposed to high concentrations of Al. 相似文献

Soft water acclimated (Ca2+ 0.02 mM; Na+ 0.03 mM; K+ 0.01 mM; pH 7.0), cannulated brown trout (Salmo trutta) were exposed to various pH and aluminium (Al) regimes (pH 7.0, pH 5.0, pH 5.0 plus Al: 50, 25, and 12.5 g l–1) for up to 5 days in order to determine (i) the sublethal concentration of Al at pH 5.0 for this species (ii) their ionoregulatory and respiratory status. No mortality or physiological disturbances were evident at pH 7.0 or pH 5.0. All trout died within 48 h at pH 5.0 in the presence of Al at 50 g l–1 and 67% died over the 5 day period at pH 5.0 in the presence of Al at 25 g l–1. Fish at these lethal Al concentrations showed significant decreases in arterial blood oxygen content (CaO2) but no changes in plasma osmolarity or the concentrations of plasma Na+, K+ and Cl–. Physiological disturbance was more marked at the 50 g l–1 Al concentration. The surviving fish at 25 g l–1 showed few signs of physiological recovery while continually exposed to this regime. No fish died during the exposure to water of pH 5.0 containing 12.5 g l–1 Al, but physiological disturbance was still apparent. These sublethally-stressed trout showed a transient decline in the plasma concentrations of Na+ and Cl–1. Although CaO2 decreased, recovery was evident. The data suggest that in the brown trout, environmental Al concentration is as important as pH and calcium concentration in determining the physiological status of the fish. 相似文献

Two replicated controlled trials were conducted to determine the efficacy of florfenicol against Aeromonas salmonicida and Vibrio salmonicida infections in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., smolts kept in 25‰ salt water. Infection with A. salmonicida was treated with florfenicol, oxolinic acid, oxytetracycline, trimethoprim/sulphadiazine or flumequine, whereas the V. salmonicida infection was treated with florfenicol or oxolinic acid only. A. salmonicida infection was induced by the introduction of cohabitant fish previously inoculated intraperitoneally. Medication started simultaneously in all test tanks on the first day of specific mortality among test fish. V. salmonicida infection was induced by intraperitoneal inoculation of all test fish. Medication started 1 day after infection. Medicated feeds were produced by coating the antibacterials on standard feed pellets, and administered twice daily for 10 consecutive days. With the dose used in the present trials, florfenicol was highly effective in reducing specific mortalities due to both infections. It was slightly more effective than oxolinic acid and trimethoprim/sulphadiazine against A. salmonicida infection. There was no significant difference between florfenicol and oxolinic acid in reducing specific mortalities due to V. salmonicida. 相似文献

The effect of sulfide on K+ influx pathways was measured in red blood cells (RBCs) of sulfide-sensitive rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and sulfide-tolerant crucian carp (Carassius carassius). In trout RBCs, maximal inhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase was attained at 10 mol l–1 sulfide and amounted to 32% without being influenced by pH between 6.7 and 8.3. Ouabain-resistant K+ influx in the absence and presence of sulfide was insignificant at pH values between 6.7 and 7.7. At higher pH values ouabain-resistant K+ influx increased, but was inhibited to about 15% by 30 mol l–1 sulfide. In RBCs of crucian carp neither Na+, K+-ATPase nor ouabain-resistant K+ influx were affected by sulfide concentrations up to 850 mol l–1. Differences in sulfide-sensitivity of K+ influx between both species can be based upon different properties of the membrane transporter themselves. The reduced Na+, K+-ATPase activity in trout RBCs may also result from a slightly reduced (by 9%) ATP level after sulfide exposure. In addition, intracellular sulfide concentrations were higher in trout RBCs as compared to crucian carp. In trout, intracellular sulfide concentrations reached extracellular levels within 5 min of incubation whereas sulfide concentrations in crucian carp RBCs remained about 2-fold lower than extracellular concentrations. Although the physiological basis of sulfide-insensitive K+ influx in crucian carp RBCs is currently unknown it may contribute to the extremely high sulfide-tolerance of this species. 相似文献

An intracellular ATP-dependent Ca2+ pumping mechanism, distinct from mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation, was identified within tilapia gill cells. Cell suspensions treated with 0.003% saponin, which selectively permeabilizes the plasma membrane, were used to characterize the Ca2+ sequentering mechanisms as endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria and to determine the effect of Zn2+ on their Ca2+ storing activity. Of the Ca2+ taken up by the endoplasmic reticulum, 80% was released by IP3 (10 mol l–1). The Ca2+ pump of the endoplasmic reticulum was 2.5 times less sensitive to Zn2+ (IC50=0.05 nmol l–1) than was the mitochondrial uptake mechanism (IC50=0.20 nmol l–1). The results indicate that Ca2+ is stored predominantly within the endoplasmic reticulum at 0.1 mol l–1 and that this storing capacity is seriously attenuated by namomolar concentrations Zn2+. 相似文献

Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) with a mean (sd) weight of 120 (2) g were fed diets supplemented with astaxanthin extracted from the yeast Phaffia rhodozyma (OY1 = 50 mg carotenoids kg–1 feed, OY2 = 100 mg carotenoids kg–1 feed), astaxanthin (AX = 100 mg astaxanthin kg–1 feed) and canthaxanthin (CX = 100 mg canthaxanthin kg–1 feed) for 4 weeks. Muscle analyses at the end of the experiment indicated a significantly higher carotenoid concentration in the AX group, while CX and OY1 groups were similar in spite of the differences in dietary concentration. The measure of total muscle colour difference (E*
ab) between initial samples and 4 week ones was higher for the AX fish group but showed no significant difference between OY1, OY2, and CX. The hue and the reflectance ratio (R650:R510) of fish muscle increased in proportion to carotenoid intake. Digestibility (ADC) of yeast astaxanthin in OY1 and OY2 groups was significantly higher than that in the AX group. Canthaxanthin ADC was about one sixth of that of astaxanthin (AX group). Carotenoid retention in the muscle, expressed as a percentage of carotenoid intake, was higher for the AX group than that recorded for OY1 and OY2. According to ADC, carotenoid retention showed a marked lower value for the CX group. Muscle retentions were similar for astaxanthins from both sources. 相似文献

The pattern of changes of activity of the urea cycle enzymes and the rate of urea-N excretion were studied in the perfused liver of an Indian air-breathing ureogenic walking catfish, Clarias batrachus. The liver was perfused with different concentrations of NH4Cl for a period of 60 min to determine the role of ammonia for stimulation of hepatic ureogenesis and the threshold level of ammonia loading needed to cause such stimulation. Both the urea-N excretion and the ammonia uptake by the perfused liver were found to be a saturable process. Ammonia accumulated significantly in the liver infused with 1.25 moles g liver –1 min–1 of NH4Cl, followed by a maximum accumulation of about 28.5 moles g wet wt–1 with the infusion of 5.08 moles g liver–1 min–1. The Vmax of the urea-N excretion (0.47 mol g liver–1 min–1) was obtained with the addition of 5.08 moles g liver–1 min–1 of NH4Cl. Both the tissue and the specific activity of the urea cycle enzymes, except ornithine transcarbamylase and arginase, were stimulated significantly with the infusion of either 1.25 or 5.08 moles g liver–1 min–1 of NH4Cl. Maximum stimulation of tissue activity of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase (about 120%) was seen with the infusion of 5.08 mol g liver–1 min–1, and for argininosuccinate synthetase (about 135%), and argininosuccinate lyase (about 50%) with the infusion of 10.81 mol g liver–1 min–1 of NH4Cl. Higher accumulation of ammonia of about 10–15 mol g wet wt–1 from the physiological level in the perfused liver while infusing with NH4Cl was suggested to be one of the major causes of stimulation of ureogenesis. The presence of such physiological adaptive strategy is probably necessary in this unique group of air-breathing walking catfish to survive under hyper-ammonia stress in their normal habitat or while living outside water or while burrowing inside mud. 相似文献

The effects of trout recombinant growth hormone (rtGH) treatment (0.25 g g–1 by intraperitoneal implant) on plasma ionic regulation, extracellular acid-base status and respiration were investigated in freshwater rainbow trout and during a 4-day period after direct transfer into seawater (35 g 1–1).In freshwater, rtGH treatment resulted in a significant increase in gill (Na+, K+) ATPase activity and in standard metabolism (MO2). The latter would mainly result from a higher rate of protein synthesis. Direct transfer from freshwater to seawater induced a decrease in arterial blood pH, far more pronounced in controls than in treated fish. This effect could be regarded in both groups mainly as a metabolic acidosis resulting from extracellular ion composition changes (i.e., an increase higher in chloride than in sodium, more marked in controls than in treated fish). As the rise in PaCO2, in spite of an increase in ventilatory activity, is more significant in controls than in treated fish, it can be assumed that rtGH treatment lightened the decrease in the gas diffusing capacity of gills induced by transfer to seawater. The initial increase in MO2 in both controls and treated fish could be the consequence of an increase in energetic cost of ventilation and osmoregulation. Then, in treated fish, the persistent high level of M may indicate a stimulation of intermediary metabolism by rtGH. In addition, the absence in treated fish of an increase in plasma lactate concentration, as observed in controls, would indicate that rtGH attenuated the decrease in O2 affinity of haemoglobin foreseeable from the metabolic acidosis.This article is dedicated to Professor Claude Peyraud, whose recent death has deeply saddened us. We respectfully pay a tribute to his memory. 相似文献

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) parr were fed for one month on fish meal based diets supplemented with Cd (0, 0.7, or 204 mg Cd kg–1 DW) or Cu (0, 34, or 691 mg Cu kg–1 DW) to assess the effects of non-essential (Cd) and essential (Cu) dietary metals on lipid peroxidation and the oxidative defence system. Cadmium accumulated significantly in the liver, intestine, and kidney of 204 mg Cd kg–1exposed fish compared to controls. Copper accumulated significantly in the intestine, kidney, and liver of fish exposed to 691 mg Cu kg–1, and in the intestine of 34 mg Cu kg–1 exposed fish. Tissue Cu accumulation significantly increased intestinal and hepatic lipid peroxidation (as seen from thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, TBARS, levels) and subsequently decreased intestinal -tocopherol levels and increased intestinal and hepatic selenium dependent glutathione peroxidase (SeGSH-Px) activity. Dietary Cd significantly reduced SeGSH-Px activity in the intestine and liver of 204 mg Cd kg–1 exposed fish compared to controls. No significant increase in tissue TBARS or reduction of -tocopherol levels was observed in the intestine of fish exposed to dietary Cd, with exception of the highest exposure group (204 mg Cd kg–1). Dietary Cu caused depletion of tissue Se and glutathione levels, however the reduced availability of GSH and Se did not seem to explain the differences in SeGSH-Px activity. Dietary Cu had a direct effect on lipid peroxidation at a relatively low concentration (34 mg Cu kg–1). Cadmium indirectly affected tissue lipid peroxidation by damaging the oxidative defence system at the highest dietary concentration (204 mg Cd kg–1). 相似文献
