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

With the aim of comparing the effects of oral T3 and NaCl administration on trout hypoosmoregulatory mechanisms, three groups of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum) held in freshwater (FW) were fed a basal diet (C), the same diet containing 8.83 ppm of 3,5,3-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) (T) or 10% (w/w) NaCl (N) respectively for 30 d. They were then transferred to brackish water (BW) for 22 d and fed on diet C. Gill (Na++K+)-ATPase activity and its dependence on ATP, Na+ and pH, number of gill chloride cells (CC), serum T3 level as well as fish growth, condition factor (K) and mortality were evaluated. During the FW phase, as compared to C trout, T trout showed a two fold higher serum T3 level, had unchanged gill (Na++K+)-ATPase activity and increased CC number, whereas N trout showed higher gill (Na++K+)-ATPase activity and CC number. At the end of the experiment the enzyme activity was in the order T>N>C groups and all groups showed similar CC number. Both treatments changed the enzyme activation kinetics by ATP and Na+. A transient increase in K value occurred in N group during the period of salt administration. In BW, T and N groups had higher and lower survival than C group respectively. Other parameters were unaffected by the treatments. This trial suggests that T3 administration promotes the development of hypoosmoregulatory mechanisms of trout but it leaves the (Na++K+)-ATPase activity unaltered till the transfer to a hyperosmotic environment.  相似文献

The capacity of cortisol, ovine growth hormone (oGH), recombinant bovine insulin-like growth factor I (rbIGF-I) and 3,3,5-triiodo-l-thyronine (T3) to increase hypoosmoregulatory capacity in the euryhaline teleost Fundulus heteroclitus was examined. Fish acclimated to brackish water (BW, 10 ppt salinity) were injected with a single dose of hormone suspended in oil and transferred to seawater (SW, 35 ppt salinity) 10 days post-injection. Fish were sampled 24 h after transfer and plasma osmolality and gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity were examined. Transfer from BW to SW induced significantly increased plasma osmolality but not gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity. Cortisol (50 g g–1 body weight) improved the ability to maintain plasma osmolality and to increase gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity. oGH (5 g g–1 body weight) also increased hypoosmoregulatory ability and gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity. A cooperation between oGH and cortisol was observed in increasing hypoosmoregulatory ability but not in increasing gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity. rbIGF-I (0.5 g g–1 body weight) alone was without effect in increasing salinity tolerance or gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity. rbIGF-I and oGH showed a positive interaction in increasing salinity tolerance, but not gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity. Treatment with T3 (5 g g–1 body weight) alone did not increase salinity tolerance or gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity, and there was no consistent significant interaction between cortisol and T3 or between GH and T3. The results confirm the classical role of cortisol as a seawater-adapting hormone and indicate an interaction between cortisol and the GH/IGF-I axis during seawater acclimation of Fundulus heteroclitus.  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

Gill Na+-K+ ATPase and carbonic anhydrase activities were measured, on a fortnightly basis, from February to July, in 0+ age Atlantic salmon (Salmo solar), hatched and reared in a freshwater experimental station in Covas, northern Portugal. Plasma osmolarity and ionic composition were also measured. Gill Na+-K+ ATPase activity increased slowly until April (15–19 moles Pi mg prot–1 h–1). From April to late May there was a great increase in activity (19–32 moles Pi mg prot–1 h–1) followed by a sharp decline in June (15 moles Pi mg prot–1 h–1). In contrast, carbonic anhydrase activity decreased significantly from early April to early June (170-70 moles p-nitrophenol mg prot–1 h–1) and increased in late June, suggesting the existence of a compensatory mechanism for the changes in Na+-K+ ATPase activity. Plasma osmolarity and sodium concentration showed lower levels during the period of high ATPase activity. On the other hand, plasma calcium concentrations showed an increase during the same period (3.47–5.98 mm1–1 of plasma). A transitory decrease in osmolarity and plasma sodium and chlorine concentrations occurred in March, prior to the surge in Na+-K+ ATPase activity, suggesting that the physiological changes, characteristic of parr-smolt transformation can be a consequence of this loss of freshwater osmoregulatory capacity.  相似文献

The mudskipperB. boddaerti, was able to survive in waters of intermediate salinities (4–27). Fish submerged in dechlorinated tap water suffered 60% mortality by the fifth day while 60% of those in 100% sea-water (sw) died after the third day of exposure. After being submerged in 50% or 80% sw for 7 days, the plasma osmolality, plasma Na+ and Cl– concentrations and the branchial Na+ and K+ activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+,K+-ATPase) activity were significantly higher than those of fish submerged in 10% sw for the same period. However, the activities of the branchial HCO3 – and Cl– stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (HCO3 –,Cl–-ATPase) and carbonic anhydrase of the latter fish were significantly greater than those of the former. Such correlation suggests that Na+,K+-ATPase is important for hyperosmotic adaptation in this fish while HCO3 –-Cl–-ATPase and carbonic anhydrase may be involved in hypoosmotic survival.  相似文献

The effect of cortisol on osmoregulatory parameters was studied in rainbow trout, (Salmo gairdneri), kept in freshwater (FW) and/or transferred to seawater (SW). Repeated injections of 20 μg cortisol/g fish stimulated gill and gut Na+/K+-ATPase activity and reduced plasma Na+ and Cl− levels after 2 weeks of treatment in FW-adapted fish. Cortisol doses of 0.05 and 1.0 μg/g were without effect. Repeated injections of 10 μg cortisol/g stimulated gill Na+/K+-ATPase activity and reduced plasma Na+ and Cl− levels in fish in FW, and significantly improved ion regulation after their transfer to 28SW. Higher doses of cortisol (10 and 20 μg/g) induced hyperglycemia, whereas low doses (0.05 and 1.0 μg/g were without effect or induced hypoglycemia. Plasma glucose levels decreased in cortisol-treated fish transferred to SW, whereas transient hyperglycemia was seen in the control fish.  相似文献

The effects of severe experimental anaemia on red blood cell HCO3 – dehydrationin vitro were examined in rainbow trout,Oncorhynchus mykiss. After 5 days of anaemia (haematocrit=4.9±1.1%) induced by intraperitoneal injection of phenylhydrazine hydrochloride, fish displayed elevated arterial CO2 tensions (anaemic PaCO2=3.19±0.42 torrvs. control PaCO2=1.35±0.17 torr) and a significant acidosis (anaemic pHa=7.73±0.04vs. control pHa=7.99±0.04). However, after 15–20 days of anaemia (hct=6.6±0.8%) induced by blood withdrawal, the arterial CO2 tension was significantly lower than the control value, suggesting that physiological adjustments occurred within this time period to compensate for the lowered haematocrit. Compensation probably did not involve alterations in ventilation, which was unaffected by 5 days of anaemia (anaemic ;w=786±187 ml min–1 kg–1 vs. control ;w=945±175 min–1 kg–1), based on indirect Fick principle measurements.Potential adaptations to longer term anaemia at the level of the red blood cells were investigated using a radioisotopic HCO3 – dehydration assay. Owing to the difference in haematocrits, the HCO3 – dehydration rate for blood from anaemic fish was significantly lower than that for control fish following equilibration at the same CO2 tension. This difference was eliminated when HCO3 – dehydration rates were measured on blood samples adjusted to the same haematocrit, a result which implies that the intrinsic rate of CO2 excretion at the level of the red blood cell was not up-regulated during anaemia. The difference was also eliminated by equilibrating the blood samples with CO2 tensions appropriate for the group from which the sample was obtained,i.e., PCO2=1.4 torr for control samples and PCO2=3.2 torr for anaemic samples; each at the appropriate haematocrit. It is concluded that the elevated PaCO2 helps to reset CO2 excretion to the control level, but that some additional physiological adjustment occurs to lower the PaCO2 after 15–20 days of anaemia.  相似文献

Branchial plasma membranes from the freshwater cichlid teleostOreochromis mossambicus (tilapia) contain two Na+-dependent ATPases: Na+/K+ ATPase, and an amiloride-sensitive ATPase which is postulated to operate as a Na+/H+ (–NH4 +) ATPase. It is suggested that both enzyme activities are located in the basolateral membrane system of the chloride cells. K+ has opposing effects on the two enzymes: it stimulates Na+/K+ ATPase and inhibits Na+/H+ (–NH4 +) ATPase activity. Na+/H+ ATPase appears more sensitive to NH4 + at low concentrations than Na+/K+ ATPase and the stimulatory effect by NH4 + ions on the first enzyme could be important in facilitating NH4 + excretion by tilapia gills under physiological conditions.In vitro maximum stimulation by NH4 + is similar for the two enzymes (200%). In contrast to Na+/K+ ATPase, Na+/H+ ATPase activity is inhibited by supra-physiological (>20 mM) concentrations of NH4 +.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to determine the effects of supplemental dietary sodium chloride on salt water acclimation of tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. Fish were fed a basal diet supplemented with NaCl (8%) during three weeks in fresh water (FW) and then transferred to salt water (SW) at 15 and 20. Changes in plasma osmolality, chloride ion concentration (Cl–), plasma level of cortisol and gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity were measured at 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 168 h after transfer to 15SW, while the higher strength SW group (20) was only monitored up to 24 h. Morphological changes in the gill mitochondria-rich (MR) cells were examined in relation to environmental salinity. The changes associated with dietary NaCl were sporadic and of small magnitude. The plasma osmolality and Cl– increased immediately after transfer up to 12–24 h, but fish fed dietary salt (S) showed lower values than the control group (C). The S group showed higher plasma levels of cortisol than the control, which maintained its initial levels during the experiment. Gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity of the S group began to increase in the first hours after transfer, reaching maximum at 12 h and returned to basal level at 24 h, while the control group maintained basal levels. The differences between gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity of S and C fish were significant (p < 0.05) at 12 h. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that MR cells in SW show more mitochondria and a more developed tubular system arising from the basolateral membrane. The MR cells of both groups frequently formed a multicellular complex in SW, consisting of a main MR and one or more accessory cells. Such complexes are rarely observed in FW. Some MR cells of fish fed supplemented dietary salt displayed convex apical membrane in FW.  相似文献

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 impact of 17-estradiol (E2) and the putative estrogenic compound, 4-nonylphenol (4-NP), on smoltification and vitellogenesis in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was investigated during a 30 day period starting late April. Three groups of fresh water (FW) fish (1 year old, mixed sexes, average weight 23 g) were injected once a week with 50 µg (0.18 µmol) 17-estradiol, 3 mg (13.6 µmol) 4-nonylphenol dissolved in peanut oil, or peanut oil alone as control. Every ten days, subgroups were challenged with 28 ppt seawater (SW) for 24h, and sampled together with subgroups of FW fish. Treatment effects were examined on vitellogenic and osmoregulatory parameters. E2 and 4-NP treatment increased the total calcium and protein level in plasma and the hepatosomatic index of FW fish, both indicating an activated vitellogenesis in the liver. The presence of vitellogenin in the plasma of 4-NP- and E2-treated groups was further indicated by the appearance of a high molecular weight vitellogenin band (550 kDa) in electropherograms produced by native gel electrophoresis. This band appeared in exactly the same position in both the E2- and the 4-NP-treated groups but could not be detected in controls. During the 30 day treatment period, control fish approached the peak of smoltification, as indicated by a distinct silvery appearance, decreasing condition factor, increasing levels of gill Na+,K+-ATPase and improved hypoosmoregulatory performance in the SW-challenge test. Both E2 and 4-NP treatments significantly inhibited the progress of smoltification, as judged by a significant reduction of gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity, relative -subunit Na+,K+-ATPase mRNA expression, gill chloride cell density and a poorer hypoosmoregulatory performance of treated fish. The impaired SW-tolerance of E2- and 4-NP-treated fish was strongly correlated with a decreased gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity. Despite a difference in relative potency, the present study shows that 4-nonylphenol and 17-estradiol may have qualitatively similar inhibitory effects on smoltification and hypoosmoregulatory physiology of Atlantic salmon. Both 4-NP and E2 activated the vitellogenic system, and the study supports the hypothesis that sexual maturation and smoltification are antagonistic, developmental phenomena in salmon. It is suggested that the presence of estrogenic compounds in the environment may negatively influence smoltification and migration in wild stocks of salmon.  相似文献

The effects of the Na+/K+ and Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios in saline groundwaters on Na+-K+-ATPase activity, survival and growth of Marsupenaeus japonicus postlarvae were investigated. The results indicate that the Na+-K+-ATPase activity, survival rate and weight gain of postlarvae were significantly affected by the Na+/K+ and Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios (P < 0.05). The Na+-K+-ATPase activity of postlarvae, in every treatment, changed corresponding to Na+/K+ and Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios, and came to a stable level after 24 h. There was a negative relation between Na+-K+-ATPase activity and Na+/K+ ratio, while there was a positive relation between Na+-K+-ATPase activity and Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio. Compared with seawater (the Na+/K+ and Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios are 27.8 and 4.64 respectively), the Na+-K+-ATPase activity of the Na+/K+ ratio 30 treatment showed no significant difference, while the Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio 4.5 treatment showed distinct difference. The survival rates and weight gain of postlarvae increased markedly when the suitable amount of K+ and Ca2+ was added to test water, and arrived at their maximum in the Na+/K+ ratio 20-30 or Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio 4.5 treatment, having no significant difference compared with normal seawater. Therefore, considering the Na+/K+, Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios and the absolute concentration of Mg2+, Ca2+ in the experimental saline groundwaters applied to Marsupenaeus japonicus farming, it should be modulated to around 30, 4.5 and 1312 mg/l, 291 mg/l, respectively.  相似文献

Biochemical procedures developed to isolate plasma membranes from the branchial epithelium of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) yield membrane fractions that are specifically enriched in the plasma membrane marker enzyme Na+/K+-ATPase. As the bulk of the branchial Na+/K+-ATPase is assumed to be confined to the mitochondria-rich chloride cells, such membrane preparations must contain the essence of the enzymatic machinery of the chloride cells. Basal Na+ activity in branchial (chloride) cells is around 10 millimolar and, accordingly, we find a Km for Na+ of the Na+/K+-ATPase of 13 millimolar, indicating that the enzyme may be regulated by changes in cytosolic sodium. The Na+-gradient across the serosal plasma membrane created by this pump provides energy for 3Na+/Ca2+-exchange and bumetanide-sensitive Na+/K+/2Cl--cotransport. Here we further postulate the presence of a Na+/Cl--cotransporter, indicated by thiazide-sensitive, bumetanide-insensitive transport of Na+ and Cl-; this cotransporter activity awaits the characterization of its kinetics. The Na+/Ca2+-exchanger has kinetic characteristics compatible with a regulatory role of cytosolic Na+ in the activity of this carrier. Both Na+/Ca2+-exchange and Ca2+-ATPase activity may contribute to transport of Ca2+, the former having lower affinity for calcium but a higher capacity than the latter carrier. The Na+/K+/2Cl--cotransporter has kinetics that favor a regulatory role for plasma K+ in the activity of this carrier. Seawater adaptation leads to increased activity of cotransporter molecules in the plasma membrane fractions (the activity increases relative to that of the Na+/K+-ATPase) and this may reflect a function in Cl--extrusion performed by the chloride cells in a seawater environment. A function for the cotransporter in the gills of freshwater fish may be the regulation of cell volume.  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

Boleophthalmus boddaerti submerged in 10%, 50% and 80% seawater (sw) for 7 days, had whole body transepithelial potentials (TEP) of 3.3, 18.3 and 22.9 mV, respectively. Hypophysectomy significantly decreased the TEP ofB. boddaerti and reversed the polarity of the TEP of the fish exposed to 10% sw.Hypophysectomy also significantly decreased the branchial Na+-K+ activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+,K+-ATPase) activity but increased the activity of branchial HCO3 –-Cl– stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (HCO3 –,Cl–-ATPase) inB. boddaerti exposed to 10% sw. However, survival in 10% sw was not significantly impaired by hypophysectomy and no significant change in plasma osmolality and plasma Na+ and Cl– concentrations was observed.Various doses of ovine-prolactin or salmon-prolactin were unable to restore the TEP of hypophysectomizedB. boddaerti in 10% sw to that of the sham-operated fish. However, cortisol increased TEP to a positive value in hypophysectomizedB. boddaerti, though it was still lower than the sham-operated control. Cortisol treatment also affected the plasma osmolality, plasma Na+ and Cl– contents and branchial Na+,K+-ATPase and HCO3 –,Cl–-ATPase activities. Overall, the hormonal control of osmoregulation inB. boddaerti appeared to differ from that of other teleosts.  相似文献

Studies were conducted to determine whether interactions occur among dietary lysine, arginine and monovalent minerals in rainbow trout. In one experiment, rainbow trout fingerlings were fed diets containing three levels of lysine (2.4, 3.1 and 3.8 g per 100 g diet), two levels of arginine (1.7 and 2.5 g per 100 g diet) and two mixtures of Na+ K+ and Cl in a 3×2×2 factorial design. The mixtures varied in the proportions of cations to anions such that Cl equalled the sum of Na+ and K+ (cations – anions = 0 mEq/kg diet) in one mixture and exceeded the sum of Na+ and K+ (cations – anions = –200 mEq/kg diet) in the second mixture. Growth and efficiency of feed conversion were not affected by dietary lysine and arginine in fish fed diets containing – 200 mEq/kg balance, but when fish were fed diets containing a 0 mEq/kg balance, 3.8% lysine and a combination of 3.1% lysine and 2.5% arginine depressed both measures of response. Trout receiving the 0 mEq/kg cation-anion balance had significantly higher free histidine concentrations and lower free lysine concentrations in muscle and higher hepatic arginase activity (P0.01) than those receiving –200 mEq/kg. In another experiment, trout were fed diets containing three levels of K+ (21, 191 and 360 mEq/kg), two levels of Na+ (21 and 191 mEq/kg) and two levels of Cl– (179 and 347 mEq/kg) in a 3×2×2 factorial design. Growth and efficiency of feed conversion were depressed and hepatosomatic index increased with higher levels of dietary K+ (P0.01), Na+ (P0.05) and Cl (P0.01), with significant K+ x Cl+ (P0.01) and K+ x Na+ x Cl (P0.05) interactions. Increasing dietary K+ resulted in increased levels of muscle free histidine and decreased levels of muscle free lysine and arginine (P0.01), while increasing dietary Cl increased muscle free lysine, the effect of which was dependent on dietary potassium (K+ x Cl–, P0.01). It is concluded that dietary levels of K+, Na+ and Cl–, irrespective of overall cation-anion balance of these minerals, affects growth rate, efficiency of feed utilization and the metabolism of basic amino acids in tissues of trout. Excess lysine causes depressed growth and efficiency of feed utilization. These effects were due to a lysine toxicity rather than a lysine-arginine antagonism, as they were not prevented by supplemental dietary arginine.  相似文献

The effect of seawater acclimation and adaptation to various salinities on the energetics of gill and kidney of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was examined. Smolts and non-smolts previously reared in fresh water were exposed to a rapid increase in salinity to 30 ppt. Plasma osmolarity, [Na+], [Cl–], [K+] and [Mg++] increased in both groups but were significantly lower in smolts than non-smolts. Gill Na+, K+-ATPase specific activity, initially higher in smolts, increased in both groups after 18 days in seawater. Kidney Na+, K+-ATPase specific activity was not affected by salinity in either group. Gill and kidney citrate synthase specific activity was not affected by seawater exposure in smolts but decreased in non-smolts. In a second experiment, Atlantic salmon smolts reared in fresh water were acclimated to 0, 10 or 30 ppt seawater for 3 months at a temperature of 13–14°C. Gill Na+, K+-ATPase was positively correlated with salinity, displaying 2.5- and 5-fold higher specific activity at 10 and 30 ppt, respectively, than at 0 ppt. Kidney Na+, K+-ATPase specific activity was not significantly affected by environmental salinity. Citrate synthase and cytochrome c oxidase specific activities in gill were slightly (6–13%) lower at 10 ppt than at 0 and 30 ppt, whereas kidney activities were lowest at 30 ppt. Oxygen consumption of isolated gill filaments was significantly higher when incubated in isosmotic saline and at 30 ppt than at 0 ppt, but was not affected by the prior acclimation salinity. The results indicate that although high salinity induces increased gill Na+, K+-ATPase activity, it does not induce substantial increases in metabolic capacity of gill or kidney.  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
