In salmonids, growth hormone (GH) effectively promotes adaptation of freshwater (FW) fish to seawater (SW), but it has been
unclear whether GH has osmoregulatory actions apart from those consequent to an increase in body size. Our objectives were
first, to examine the minimum time and dose required for GH to enhance SW adaptation; and second, to optimize the conditions
for the acute GH response in developing a convenient GH bioassay based on its plasma ion lowering effect. Trout showed markedly
improved SW survival when transferred from fresh water 6, 24, or 48h after a single chum salmon GH injection (0.25 μg/g).
Preadapting trout to 1/3 SW enhanced the plasma ion lowering effect of ovine GH (oGH) injected 48h before transfer of the
fish to 80% SW. Endogenous plasma GH levels were elevated in control trout switched from low salinities to 80% SW but were
depressed in oGH-injected fish after transfer. Under optimal test conditions (1/3 SW preadaptation, 48h pre-transfer injection,
and 100% SW final challenge), the reduction in plasma Na+, Ca++, and Mg++ levels of oGH-injected fish was dose-dependent. The oGH doses giving minimum and maximum responses were 50 and 200 ng/g,
respectively. In short, GH exerts acute osmoregulatory actions that promote SW adaptation in the absence of changes in body
size. Compared with growth GH bioassays, the osmoregulatory assay is superior in economy of time, animal costs, and hormone
quantity required and potentially in specificity. 相似文献

Low-salinity tolerance of juvenile fugu <Emphasis Type="Italic">Takifugu rubripes</Emphasis> 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
ABSTRACT: To study the adaptability of juvenile fugu Takifugu rubripes to low-salinity environments, fish were transferred from full-strength seawater (100% SW) to freshwater (FW) and 25, 50, 75 and 100% SW, and checked for mortality over 3 days. No mortality was observed in 25–100% SW, whereas all fish died in FW. In fish transferred to 25–100% SW, blood osmolality was maintained within a physiological range. To further explore the lower limit of salinity that fugu could tolerate, fish were transferred from 100% SW to FW and 1, 5, 10, 15 and 25% SW. All fish survived in 5–25% SW, but fish died in FW and 1% SW. In fish surviving transfer to FW and 1 and 5% SW, blood osmolality was decreased to a near sublethal level of approximately 300 mOsm/kg·H2 O. Therefore, the lower limit of salinity tolerance is estimated to lie between 5 and 10% SW. Preacclimation in 25% SW for 7 days did not essentially affect the survival salinity range. Although survival rates and blood osmolality were slightly improved by preacclimation in 25% SW, blood osmolality was markedly decreased in salinities less than 10% SW, as was seen in the direct transfer. Neither chloride cell morphology nor sodium-potassium adenosinetriphosphatase activity in the gills showed a significant change following transfer to low salinities. These findings indicate that fugu can be adapted to hypoosmotic environments to some extent, exerting hyperosmoregulatory ability, although chloride cells are less likely to absorb ions in hypoosmotic environments. 相似文献

Growth hormone (GH) effectively promotes seawater (SW) adaptation in salmonids, but little is known of its effect in tilapias. Experiments were performed to investigate the effects of recombinant eel GH (reGH) on osmoregulatory actions and ultrastructural features of gill chloride cells in juvenile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus. Tilapia showed a markedly improved SW survival, when directly transferred from freshwater (FW) to 62.5% SW 24h after a single reGH injection (0.25 or 2.5 µg g-1) or 3 reGH injections (0.25 µg g-1 every other day). Plasma Na+ and Mg2+ levels were significantly reduced by reGH (0.25 and 2.5 µg g-1) compared with saline injections; Ca2+ concentrations were reduced significantly by high dose of reGH (2.5 µg g-1) after SW transfer. However, fish failed to survive more than 24h when directly transferred to 70% SW, although the fish treated with reGH could survive longer than the controls. When examined by electron microscopy, the chloride cells were identified as mitochondrion-rich and an extensive tubular system was induced by GH treatment. The results of the present study suggest that, similar to its effect on salmonids, GH also exerts acute osmoregulatory actions and enhances SW adaptation in juvenile tilapia. GH also stimulates the differentiation of chloride cells toward SW adaptation. 相似文献

Plasma growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), and insulin were measured in two groups of Salmo salar L. during a one-year study. The fish were reared under either a simulated natural photoperiod (SNP) from January to December or a regime of continuous light from January to June, followed by SNP until December (LL/SNP). Plasma GH levels during spring were low, and lower in the LL/SNP fish (< 0.9 ng ml− 1) than in the SNP fish (> 1.9 ng ml− 1), although the LL/SNP grew better (0.8% per day) than the SNP fish (0.5% per day). Plasma IGF-I levels increased transiently from January (64.7 ng ml− 1) to maximum in late September in the LL/SNP (85.8 ng ml− 1) and in November in the SNP group (87.3 ng ml− 1). The ratio GH:IGF-I was lower in the LL/SNP group during spring when this group grew better than the SNP group. 相似文献

Brown (BT) and rainbow trout (RT) in freshwater (FW) were treated with ovine growth hormone (GH), GH + iopanoic acid (IOP), and GH + IOP plus triiodothyronine (T3) for RT only. After 1 week of treatment, trout were transferred to 30 o/oo SW and treatment continued. In FW, GH treatment increased significantly plasma T3 level (BT) and T3/T4 ratio (BT and RT) by stimulating T4 to T3 deiodination. In the GH + IOP group, the plasma T3 levels and T3/T4 ratio fell significantly as T4 to T3 deiodination was inhibited. In GH + IOP + T3-treated RT, plasma T3 and T3/T4 ratios increased significantly relative to other groups. No mortality occurred and plasma osmolarity (PO) was not altered by any treatment in FW. After transfer to SW, all IOP + GH trout died within 2 (BT) or 3 days (RT). All GH-treated or control BT survived to the end of the experiment (6 days). RT survival rates tended to be improved in GH and GH + IOP + T3 groups relative to controls. Correlatively on day 1 the PO increase was significantly higher in IOP + GH groups (BT and RT) than in the other groups and significantly lower in GH and GH + IOP + T3 treated RT than in controls from days 1 to 6. These data confirm the requirement of T3 and deiodination of T4 to T3 for the development of hypoosmoregulatory mechanisms in SW as previously shown (Lebel and Leloup 1992). Furthermore, the suppression of the hypoosmoregulatory effect of GH, when conversion of T4 to T3 was inhibited by IOP and the reversal when T3 was added to IOP + GH treatment suggests that GH osmoregulatory action in SW acts via the simulation of T4-5′ monodeiodination which increases T3 production. 相似文献

Cortisol-induced changes in oxygen consumption and ionic regulation in coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki) parr 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
The influence of cortisol on oxygen consumption and osmoregulatory variables was examined in coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki) parr kept in fresh water (FW) and transferred to seawater (SW). Intraperitoneal implants containing cortisol (50 g g–1) in vegetable oil resulted in elevated plasma cortisol titres similar to those observed in fish following a 24h SW exposure. Cortisol treatment significantly increased the oxygen consumption and plasma glucose levels of trout in FW, consistent with the glucocorticoid role of cortisol. Cortisol treatment did not cause any changes in plasma ion concentrations or gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity in FW after 10 days. Cortisol-implanted fish exposed to SW for 24h showed slightly improved ion regulatory ability compare to non-implanted controls. The results of this study suggest that during SW transfer in juvenile salmonids, increases in cortisol may act as both a mineralocorticoid and a glucocorticoid, depending on the developmental state of the fish (e.g., smolt versus parr). Furthermore, the relative energetic costs of osmoregulation and that of the stress associated SW transfer cannot be discerned using whole-animal oxygen consumption rates. 相似文献

The growth-independent effect of ovine growth hormone (oGH) and oGH + cortisol treatment on seawater (SW) adaptation in immature
rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri was investigated. Fish were injected every second day with saline, 2.0 μg oGH/g or 2.0 μg oGH + 8.0 μg cortisol/g for a maximum
of 8 injections in freshwater (FW). Subgroups were transferred to 28‰ SW after 4 or 8 injections, and changes in plasma Na+ and Cl−, muscle water content and gill Na+/K+-ATPase activity were measured. In both of the hormone-treated groups retained in FW, gill Na+/K+-ATPase activity and interlamellar chloride cell density increased. The effects were most pronounced in the oGH + cortisol
group after 2 weeks of treatment. After transfer to SW most of the control fish died due to the osmotic stress, whereas in
the hormone-treated groups, mortality was low and there was a positive correlation between pretransfer gill Na+/K+-ATPase and the ability to maintain ionic-osmotic homeostasis after SW transfer. After two weeks of oGH + cortisol treatment,
gill Na+/K+-ATPase activity was maximal. In contrast, after SW transfer, Na+/K+-ATPase activity increased further in the oGH-treated group. This group regulated ionic-osmotic parameters less effectively
than the oGH + cortisol-treated group. The data indicate that GH and cortisol are important hormones in the regulation of
hypoosmoregulatory mechanisms in S. gairdneri. 相似文献

Since somatostatin (SRIF) inhibits the release of growth hormone (GH), its immunoneutralization may provide an alternative
to GH therapy as a means of enhancing somatic growth in fish. The present study examined the feasibility of accelerating growth
in juvenile chinook salmon by means of antiSRIF administration. Yearling salmon of Nicola River stock (BC, Canada) were injected
intraperitoneally every 5 days, for a total of 40 days, with either SRIF (1 μg g-1 body wt.), antiSRIF (SOMA-10, 1 μg g−1), recombinant bovine GH (rbGH, 2.5 μg g−1), recombinant porcine GH (rpGH, 2.5 μg g−1) or saline (controls). No significant differences were observed in length, weight or final condition factor (k) between the SRIF-treated and control fish over the experimental period. However, the fish treated with the antiSRIF were
significantly (p ≤ 0.05) longer and heavier than the control salmon after 25 and 30 days respectively. Furthermore, antiSRIF
treatment caused a lowering in k when compared to the control salmon. Fish injected with rbGH or rpGH were significantly longer and heavier than all other
groups (p ≤ 0.05), after only 5 days. GH treated groups also returned higher k when compared against all other treatments
(p ≤ 0.05). No differences were observed in growth between the two rGH treatments over the experimental period. 相似文献

The effects of ovine prolactin (oPRL) on osmoregulatory ability (electrolyte balance, plasma osmolality and activity of gill chloride cells and gill Na+/K+‐ATPase) and stress responses (plasma cortisol, glucose, aspartate aminotransferase: AST and alanine aminotransferase: ALT) were investigated in black porgy transferred to freshwater (FW). Fish in seawater (SW) were injected twice at a 24 h interval with oPRL (at 1, 3, or 5 μg g–1 body weight) or vehicle (0.9% NaCl) and then transferred to FW. They were sampled 3 days after the transfer. With oPRL at 5 μg g–1, levels of plasma Na+ and Cl? and osmolality were significantly higher than in saline‐treated fish, whereas gill CCs number and Na+/K+‐ATPase activity were lower. Also, the 5 μg g–1oPRL treatment led to significantly lower plasma cortisol levels than did saline treatment. However, there were no significant differences in plasma AST and ALT between groups. These results support the positive osmoregulatory role of PRL in black porgy during FW adaptation. 相似文献

Freshwater adaptability of chum salmon was examined in juvenile fish reared in seawater for 4 months. The fish, weighing about
40g, were transferred directly to fresh water in October, when their cohorts are migrating in the North Pacific Ocean. Plasma
sodium concentration decreased from 167 mM in seawater to about 130 mM during the first 24h, and increased gradually during
2–7 days after the transfer. No immunoreactive prolactin (PRL) was detected in the plasma of the seawater-adapted fish nor
during the first 24h in fresh water. Significant levels of PRL were detected after 2–3 days. The maximal level (2.6 ng/ml)
was observed after 5 days and became undetectable again after 7 days; no significant correlation was seen between the changes
in plasma sodium and PRL levels during the transfer. Plasma growth hormone levels were relatively constant, except for a significant
decrease 12h after the transfer. Although plasma thyroxine levels were highly variable during the experiment, a significant
decrease and an increase were observed 12h and 5 days after the transfer, respectively. The present study indicates that juvenile
chum salmon retain hyperosmoregulatory ability even after prolonged rearing in seawater. Examination of turnover rates, rather
than changes in plasma levels, seems to be essential to clarify the osmoregulatory roles of the hormones. 相似文献

This study assessed refined canola oil (CO) as a supplemental dietary lipid source for juvenile fall chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, parr with respect to possible effects on their growth and osmoregulatory performance and body composition. Diets with equal protein ( 57%) and lipid ( 19%) content (dry weight basis) were supplemented with lipid from either anchovy oil (AO) or CO with AO so that CO comprised 0 (0CO), 11% (11CO), 22% (22CO), 33% (33CO), 43% (43CO) or 54% (54CO) of the dietary lipid content. Triplicate groups of juvenile chinook salmon were fed their prescribed diets for 104 days in freshwater (FW) and 31 days in seawater (SW) after a 4-day transition period. Dietary fatty acid compositions reflected the different proportions of AO and CO in the supplemental lipid. Diet treatment had no effect on fish growth, feed intake, feed efficiency, protein utilization, fish mortality or terminal whole body water and ash percentages. Whole body lipid percentages were higher in 11CO and 43CO fish than in 33CO fish and in 11CO fish versus 22CO fish. Whole body protein percentages were highest in 33CO, 43CO and 54CO fish and lowest in 0CO and 22CO fish. Terminal whole body fatty acid compositions were influenced strongly by the dietary fatty acid compositions. Haematocrit and muscle water percentages were not affected consistently and plasma Na+ and Cl− concentrations were unaffected by diet treatment in FW or 24-h seawater challenges during FW residency. Also, diet treatment had no effect on the physiological parameters after SW residency. We conclude that dietary treatment had no effect on fish growth performance under our experimental conditions. Also, the dietary inclusion of CO neither facilitated nor impaired the transfer of chinook salmon parr to seawater. Thus, CO was found to be an excellent and cost-effective source of supplemental dietary lipid for culture of juvenile fall chinook salmon during freshwater residency. 相似文献

Production of Atlantic salmon smolts in recirculation aquaculture systems (RAS) is growing, and novel production protocols using continuous light in RAS are being implemented in the industry. In the present study, Atlantic Salmon parr were exposed to either a traditional protocol (short-day winter signal [12:12 L:D] for 6 weeks) or to continuous light. Both photoperiods were applied in freshwater (FW) and brackish water RAS. Salmon from all treatments were transferred to seawater pens at 200 and 600 g and grown until slaughter size. A control group was smoltified with a 6-week short-day winter signal and kept in FW until sea transfer at 100 g. Continuous light gave a higher growth rate in RAS but reduced feed intake and growth and increased feed conversion ratio during the first 8 weeks in seawater. However, at slaughter, fish exposed to continuous light was bigger than fish given a winter signal because of the higher growth rate in RAS. Slaughter weight was lowest in fish transferred to sea at 600 g, despite having the highest day-degree sum during their life span. The best performing group was the control group transferred at 100 g. All treatments handled transfer to seawater and survival and maturation were not affected by the treatments in RAS. The immune status was examined with a multigene expression assay on BioMark HD platform from parr stage to 5–7 months after seawater transfer. Overall, there was no significant effect of photoperiod or salinity on the expression of the selected immune genes. In sum, the results from this study indicate that using continuous light in RAS may have negative effects on performance shortly after transfer in fish transferred to sea at 200 g, whereas at 600 g, all treatments had reduced growth after transfer irrespective of treatment in RAS. 相似文献

Intensive salmon smolt production normally includes reduced water flow and hyperoxygenation (added oxygen) of remaining water. There is little information on how different water quality parameters influence the fish health and the susceptibility to infectious diseases. The current experiment was carried out to evaluate if the combination of hyperoxygenation and reduced water flow (hyperoxic) can act as a chronic stressor to salmon in freshwater (FW) in such a way that it increases the susceptibility to IPN virus (IPNV) following seawater transfer. In FW, after 22 days of hyperoxic exposure plasma ion, TBARS and cortisol were measured. The cortisol levels were significantly (p = 0.011) higher in the hyperoxic group compared to controls maintained under normal oxygen saturation and water flow (normoxic), indicating chronic stress. Hyperoxygenation in FW caused decreased plasma [Cl−] compared to the normoxic group (p = 0.037), while [K+] tended to be higher in the hyperoxic group (p = 0.088). No significant differences were observed in plasma [Na+], total osmolality, TBARS or hematocrit, but there was a tendency towards a lower hct in the hyperoxic compared to the normoxic group. In SW the mortality was higher in the hyperoxic group challenged with IPNV (34%) compared to the normoxic group challenged with IPNV (20%) (p = 0.02), and no mortality was observed in the PBS injected fish. The challenged fish showed an overall increase in plasma cortisol day 8, 10, 12 and 14 post-challenge (p = 0.015, p = 0.000, p = 0.046 and p = 0.022 respectively). After SW transfer and challenge, plasma [K+] was elevated in both challenged groups, but no consistent trends were found for plasma [Cl−], [Na+] or total osmolality during the SW phase. There were no significant differences in the gene expression level of IFN 1, Mx and IL 1β prior to challenge, suggesting that the basic expression level of these genes were not affected by hyperoxygenation. IPNV was detected in kidney and pylorus, by immunohistochemistry, cell culture, and RT-PCR in head kidney. This experiment indicates that chronic stress induced by a combination of low water flow and hyperoxygenation increases the susceptibility to IPNV challenge. 相似文献

Radioimmunoassay measurement of pituitary AVT content and plasma AVT concentration indicated comparable levels in fully adapted sea water (SW) and fresh water (FW) flounders. Circulating AVT represented less than 0.1% of the pituitary AVT reserve. The urophysis contained AVT but the total content was only 2 or 3 fold that of circulating AVT. In fish adapted to hypertonic media, there was a close correlation between plasma AVT concentration and plasma Na+ concentration or osmolality. The present study examined the effects of acute osmotic challenge, associated with FW to SW transfer, and the influence of extracellular fluid volume status on AVT secretion. Short-term transfer of fish from FW to SW (up to 3 days) did not evoke a clear change in plasma AVT levels, though pituitary content was reduced at 24 h. During the first 3 days after transfer to SW, only small increments in plasma tonicity were apparent. The sensitivity of AVT secretion to osmotic stimuli may only be expressed when plasma osmolality has exceeded a specific threshold, which was probably not reached in these transfer studies. Fish in hypotonic media showed no relationship between plasma osmolality/tonicity and plasma AVT concentration. Acute extracellular fluid volume expansion of SW adapted fish also abolished the normally observed relationship between plasma osmolality and AVT concentration in these hypertonic media fish. This trend indicates that volume status may modulate the sensitivity of AVT secretion to osmotic stimuli as occurs in tetrapods. 相似文献

Osmoregulatory actions of growth hormone and its mode of action in salmonids: A review 总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8

Osmoregulatory actions of growth hormone (GH) and its mode of action in salmonids are reviewed. We present evidence suggesting
that insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) mediates some of the actions of GH on seawater acclimation. Plasma concentration
and turnover of GH rise following exposure to seawater. Exogenous GH (in vivo) increases gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity and the number of gill chloride cells, and inhibits an increase in plasma osmolarity and ions following transfer
of fish to seawater. A single class of high affinity GH receptors is present in the liver, gill, intestine, and kidney. The
levels of IGF-I mRNA in the liver, gill and kidney increased after GH-injection. After transfer to seawater, IGF-I mRNA increased
in the gill and kidney following the rise in plasma GH, although no significant change was seen in the liver. Injection of
IGF-I improved the ability of the fish to maintain plasma sodium levels after transfer to seawater. GH treatment also sensitizes
the interrenal to adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), increasing cortisol secretion. Both cortisol and IGF-I may be involved in mediating
the action of GH in seawater adaptation, although studies on the effect of GH on osmoregulatory physiology of non-salmonid
species are limited. An integrated model of the osmoregulatory actions of GH is presented, and areas in need of research are
outlined.
Résumé Cet article est une revue des effets osmorégulateurs de l'hormone de croissance et de son mode d'action. Nous présentons des résultats qui suggèrent que le facteur de croissance de type insuline (IGF-I) est un médiateur de certaines des actions de la GH sur l'adaptation à l'eau de mer. Les concentrations plasmatiques et le renouvellement de la GH augmentent après transfert en eau de mer. La GH exogène stimule (in vivo) l'activité Na+,K+-ATPase et le nombre de cellules à chlorure branchialeset inhibe les augmentations de l'osmolarité et des concentrations ioniques du plasma observées après transfert en eau de mer. Une seule classe de récepteurs à haute affinité pour la GH est présent dans le foie, les branchies, l'intestin et le rein. Les niveaux d'ARNm d'IGF dans le foie, les branchies et le rein augmentent après injection de la GH. Après transfert en eau de mer, les ARNm de l'IGF augmentent dans les branchies et dans le rein en suivant l'augmentation de GH plasmatique, bien qu'aucune modification ne soit observée au niveau du foie. L'injection d'IGF augmente la capacité du poisson à maintenir ses niveaux de sodium plasmatique après transfert en eau de mer. Le traitement à la GH augmente la sensibilité à l'adrenocorticotropine (ACTH) et stimule donc les niveaux de cortisol. A la fois le cortisol et l'IGF-I semblent impliqués comme médiateurs des effets de la GH dans l'adaptation à l'eau de mer, bien que les études sur les effets de la GH sur la physiologie de l'osmorégulation chez les espèces non-salmonidés restent encore limitées. Un modèle intégré des actions de la GH sur l'osmorégulation est présenté et les domaines de recherche à développer sont soulignés.相似文献

In the present study, we examined the long-term effects of environmental salinity, diet (35% and 25% crude protein) and 17-methyltestosterone (MT) on corresponding levels of pituitary and serum growth hormone (GH) and prolactins (tPRL177 and tPRL188) in the tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus). We observed no discernible patterns in serum GH that would suggest an effect of salinity, diet or MT. However, serum GH levels in all treatments declined at 1 and 3h after first feeding. Serum tPRL177 and tPRL188 were significantly higher in freshwater (FW) than in seawater (SW) and levels were significantly affected by dietary protein. tPRL177 levels were higher in all groups fed a 35% protein diet, but tPRL188 levels were higher only in the groups fed the MT-treated 35% protein diet; only serum tPRL188 levels were affected by MT. Moreover, serum tPRL177 and tPRL188 increased throughout the sampling time-course. Subsequent work using fasted tilapia suggests that first feeding is likely to initiate the post-prandial suppression of serum GH levels. In contrast with the picture observed in blood, pituitary glands of SW animals showed higher levels of GH than FW fish. Pituitary GH was elevated by MT in both FW and SW. We also observed that pituitary tPRL177 and tPRL188 levels were higher in FW fish than in SW fish; tPRL177 and tPRL188 levels were elevated by MT only in FW animals. To assess the somatomedin activity of plasma from FW- and SW-reared tilapia, we measured [35S]-sulfate incorporation into ceratobranchial cartilage explants in vitro. Plasma from SW-adapted tilapia showed greater activity in this assay than plasma from FW-reared tilapia, suggesting that the GH-dependent IGF bioactivity of plasma is higher in SW-reared tilapia. Collectively, these studies suggest that the growth-promoting actions of SW rearing and of MT administration in tilapia may be linked to elevations in GH and/or prolactin (tPRL177 and tPRL188)levels. 相似文献
