Response of enzyme activities and metabolic intermediate concentrations to epinephrine administration in hepatopancreas and muscle of carp

SUMMARY: Common carp Cyprinus carpio were administered intraperitoneally with 10 μmol epinephrine per 100 g bodyweight, and enzyme activities and metabolic intermediate concentrations were determined in the hepatopancreas and muscle. Glycogen phosphorylase a (GPase a) activity together with cyclic AMP (cAMP) concentration was increased, and glycogen content was decreased in the hepatopancreas and muscle at 2 h after the administration. The epinephrine administration also increased hepatopancreatic glucose-6-phosphatase and fructose-1,6-biphosphatase activities as well as serum glucose, lactate, and free amino acid concentrations. Furthermore, its administration increased phosphofructokinase activity together with lactate, fructose-6-phosphate, adenosine-5'-monophosphate, and adenosine-5'-diphosphate concentrations and decreased citrate concentration in the muscle. Thereafter, almost all parameter concentrations in the hepatopancreas and muscle recovered to the pre-administered levels during 24 h after the administration. These results suggest that epinephrine administration enhanced glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in the hepatopancreas, and released glucose into the bloodstream to supply it to the muscle. The blood glucose together with muscle glycogen seems to be metabolized through enhanced glycolysis in the muscle.     

Biochemical responses of matrinxãBrycon cephalus (Günther, 1869) after sustained swimming

Juvenile matrinxã, Brycon cephalus, were submitted to sustained swimming for 72 days at 1.0 body length s^?1. Exercised fish (EF) grew more than non‐EF and their feed conversion ratio (FCR) improved; haematological responses demonstrated a decrease in haemoglobin and mean cell haemoglobin contents and increase in the mean cell volume. In the plasma, sodium, ammonia and amino acid concentrations increased; plasma triglycerides decreased while free fatty acids increased. Liver glucose, free amino acids, ammonia, the rate protein per fish weight and total lipid content increased, while the glycogen per fish ratio declined. Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity increased while pyruvate kinase (PK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) decreased. White muscle glucose, lactate, the glycogen per fish‐weight ratio and total lipid content exhibited a decrease in their values; ammonia, free amino acids and the protein per fish‐weight ratio increased. GDH and PK decreased their activities. In the red muscle glycogen store, the glycogen per fish‐weight ratio and glucose were reduced. Juvenile matrinxãs, under sustained swimming, were physiologically and biochemically adapted to exercise as indicated by improved blood flow, transport and oxygen uptake, FCR, amino acid and protein incorporation and growth. Continuous exercise is a good practice for B. cephalus cultivation.     

Growth and metabolic responses of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) fed different levels of protein and lipid

Growth and metabolism were investigated in juvenile tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) fed with isoenergetic diets in four treatments with protein (P) lipid (L) in g kg^?1: P350L49; P301L81; P253L113 and P205L145, respectively. The experiments were carried out in the laboratory facilities. Fish growth, the intermediary metabolites (total sugar, lactate, pyruvate, ammonia, protein, fatty acids, triacylglycerols, amino acids and glycogen), and the enzyme activities of lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were assayed. Fish from treatments P350L49 and P301L81 depicted the best growth. Increase in glycolytic, glycogenolytic and lipolytic activities in liver was observed following dietary lipid increase. In fish fed with high lipid levels, the energetic demand was supplied by enhancement of muscular glycogenesis and lipolysis. The plasma metabolic profile reflected the blood function on metabolites delivery to tissues underlining biochemical adaptations because of changes in the feeding. In conclusion, the increase in dietary lipid plus protein decrease resulted in (i) reduction in fish growth, (ii) augment of liver glycolysis and glycogenolysis (iii) increase in muscular glycogenesis and (iv) predominance of lipolytic metabolism.     

The effects of hypoxia acclimation, exercise training and fasting on swimming performance in juvenile qingbo (Spinibarbus sinensis)

To investigate the effects of hypoxia acclimation, exercise training and fasting on the swimming performance of juvenile qingbo (Spinibarbus sinensis), we measured the critical swimming speed (U (crit)), resting and excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) of control, hypoxia-acclimated, exercise-acclimated and fasting fish at 25°C. The muscle and plasma metabolites before and after a bout of exhaustive exercise (produced by chasing) were also measured. The fish were acclimated to hypoxia (48?h at 1.0?mg?L(-1), 12.5% air saturation), exercise training (2?weeks at 60% of U (crit), 6?h daily) or fasting (2?weeks). All treatments resulted in significantly lower resting oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text]O(2rest)) but had no effect on the magnitude of EPOC. Hypoxia acclimation had no effect on U (crit) or peak post-exercise oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text]O(2peak)) but produced a higher depletion of muscle [glycogen] post-chasing (P?相似文献   

不同小麦淀粉和脂肪水平对大黄鱼的生长性能、饲料利用及糖代谢关键酶活力的影响

为探讨饲料中添加不同小麦淀粉和脂肪水平对大黄鱼幼鱼生长、饲料利用以及糖代谢关键酶活力的影响,进行了为期8周的生长实验。设计了3个小麦淀粉水平(5%、10%和30%)和2个脂肪水平(5%和10%)的3×2的两因子实验,配制了6种等氮的饲料,分别喂养平均体质量为(6.75±0.12)g的大黄鱼幼鱼。结果显示,饲料中小麦淀粉和脂肪水平对大黄鱼增重率(WG)、特定生长率(SGR)、饲料效率(FE)、成活率(SR)、肝体比(HSI)和肥满度(CF)无显著交互作用,对脏体比(VSI)有显著交互作用。在同一脂肪水平下,淀粉水平为30%组WG和SGR显著高于10%淀粉组。不同小麦淀粉和脂肪水平对肝糖原含量无显著交互作用,而对肌糖原含量有显著交互作用,在饲料脂肪水平为5%时,30%小麦淀粉水平下的肝糖原含量显著高于10%和20%淀粉水平,10%淀粉水平下的肌糖原含量显著高于20%和30%淀粉水平;在脂肪水平为10%时,10%淀粉水平下的肝糖原含量显著高于20%和30%淀粉水平,而30%小麦淀粉水平下的肌糖原含量显著高于10%和20%淀粉水平。小麦淀粉和脂肪水平对血清中谷丙转氨酶(ALT)、谷草转氨酶(AST)、总胆固醇(TC)和葡萄糖(GLU)含量无显著交互作用,对总蛋白(TP)和甘油三酯(TG)交互作用显著。不同小麦淀粉和脂肪水平对肝脏脂肪酶活性有显著的交互作用,对淀粉酶活性无显著交互作用;同一脂肪水平下,脂肪酶的活性随着淀粉水平的升高而升高,同一饲料淀粉水平下,饲料脂肪水平为10%组的脂肪酶活性显著高于5%组。不同小麦淀粉和脂肪水平对肝脏丙酮酸激酶(PK)的活性有显著的交互作用,而对葡萄糖激酶(GK)、磷酸果糖激酶(PFK)、磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧激酶(PEPCK)、1,6-二磷酸果糖酶(FBPase)和6-磷酸葡萄糖酶(G6Pase)的活性均无显著交互作用。研究表明,当饲料脂肪水平为5%时,大黄鱼能够通过调节糖酵解关键酶活性及肝糖原含量来维持血糖平衡,改善对小麦淀粉的利用能力;而当脂肪水平为10%时,大黄鱼对小麦淀粉的利用能力降低。     

饥饿及再投喂处理对草鱼生长、葡萄糖代谢和转运蛋白1表达的影响

设置持续投喂组(C,持续投喂8周)、饥饿再投喂组(R,饥饿4周+再投喂4周)和持续饥饿组(S,饥饿8周)3个处理组,研究3种不同饥饿处理对草鱼(Ctenopharyngodon idellus)血清生化指标、糖原和糖代谢相关酶和葡萄糖转运蛋白1(GLUT1)的影响,同时在此实验基础上研究草鱼在急性高糖负荷胁迫下的糖耐受能力、糖代谢相关酶和GLUT1的变化规律,旨在阐明草鱼在饥饿及再投喂处理条件下的糖代谢特征。选取初重为(125.35±0.54)g的草鱼,饲养8周后以30 mg/100 g体重的剂量腹腔注射葡萄糖研究其糖耐受能力。结果显示,S组肝糖原和血清的血糖、甘油三酯含量均最低。饥饿处理对草鱼糖耐受能力影响显著,S组血糖含量在各时间点上显著低于其余两组(P0.05),肝糖原在6 h达到峰值;饥饿处理对草鱼肝脏糖代谢关键酶影响显著,饥饿处理(S组)诱使磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸激酶(PEPCK)活性上升但抑制丙酮酸激酶(PK)和果糖-6-磷酸激酶(PFK)的活性(P0.05),而饥饿再投喂(R组)后PEPCK、PK和PFK酶活性恢复到持续投喂(C组)处理水平。注射葡萄糖后S组肝脏GK酶活性增幅最大,PK酶活性呈上升趋势,而R组则呈先下降后上升的趋势;饥饿处理对草鱼肝脏和肌肉GLUT1表达影响显著,注射葡萄糖后,除R组肝脏组织外,其余各组草鱼肝脏和肌肉组织GLUT1表达量均呈先上升后下降的趋势,且S组肌肉GLUT1表达量在各个时间点上均高于其余两组(P0.05)。研究结果表明,在不同饥饿处理下,草鱼可通过消耗肝糖原和甘油三酯及降低肝脏糖酵解相关酶(PK和PFK)活性和促进糖异生PEPCK酶活性来应对饥饿胁迫,而饥饿处理可诱使GK和PK酶活性上升、促进糖原合成和激活GLUT1基因的表达和转运来缓解草鱼急性高糖负荷,从而提高其糖耐受能力。     

Influence of exercise on the distribution of enzymes in trout white muscle and kinetic properties of AMP-deaminase from free and bound fractions

Effects of exercise on the distribution of phosphofructokinase (PFK), fructose-1,6-biphosphatase (FBPase), and AMP-deaminase between free and particulate-bound fractions was analyzed in white skeletal muscle of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. With a widely used technique for the separation of free and bound enzyme fractions (homogenization in low ionic strength, high sucrose buffer), the data showed that the amount of bound PFK increased from 64 to 95% during burst swimming whereas other enzymes were unaffected. Since this data for AMP-deaminase contrasted with earlier reports, different methods of separating free and bound enzyme were evaluated. A clear effect of exercise on AMP-deaminase binding occurred when high ionic strength media (either KCl or KF) were used; in extraction media containing 150 mM KCl, the percent bound rose from 30% in controls to 97% after 1 min burst swimming. Exercise also produced stable changes to AMP-deaminase kinetic properties, including for the bound enzyme (compared with the free) a 2-fold higher K_m AMP, a 3-fold higher K_i for inorganic phosphate, and a 60% increase in K_a ADP after 1 min burst exercise. The data suggest that AMP-deaminase in working skeletal muscle is subject to combined controls by allosteric effectors, post-translational modification, and distribution between free and bound states.     

草鱼、银鲫和青鱼捕捞后的应激反应

分别评价了捕捞对草食性(草鱼)、杂食性(银鲫)和肉食性(青鱼)鲤科鱼类血液指标(血浆史质醇、葡萄糖和乳酸浓度)、肝糖原含量和两种肝脏糖酵解酶(己糖激酶和丙酮酸激酶)活性的影响。结果显示:草鱼、银鲫和青鱼捕捞后血浆史质醇、葡萄糖和乳酸浓度均显著升高;草鱼和青鱼捕捞后2 h时肝糖原含量呈下降趋势,但银鲫捕捞前、后肝糖原含量未出现显著变化;捕捞前、后青鱼血糖浓度显著高于草鱼和银鲫。银鲫肝糖原含量显著高于草鱼和青鱼,其捕捞后血浆葡萄糖和乳酸浓度增加幅度较小,这意味着捕捞后银鲫应激反应强度相对较低。草鱼和银鲫捕捞后肝脏己糖激酶和丙酮酸激酶活性未发生显著变化,青鱼捕捞后2 h己糖激酶活性显著下降,这意味着捕捞应激后血糖升高未导致草鱼、银鲫和青鱼的肝脏糖酵解酶活性增强。     

Effects of food deprivation on white muscle energy reserves in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss): the relationships with body size and temperature

The relationship between body size and the depletion of white muscle metabolites (e.g., PCr, ATP, glucose and glycogen) was examined in two sizes (30 or 700 g) of rainbow trout deprived of food for one, four or seven days at either 5 or 15 °C. Following 7 days of food deprivation at 15 °C, the levels of muscle glycogen decreased by approximately 50% in small fish relative to control values (i.e., day 1). In comparison, small fish acclimated to cold temperatures did not exhibit a significant reduction of muscle glycogen over the seven day fasting regime. In contrast to small fish, the levels of white muscle glycogen in large fish remained unchanged after food deprivation, regardless of acclimation temperature. A seven day deprivation of food also resulted in a 50% depletion of white muscle glucose concentrations in small and large fish acclimated to warm temperatures, but there were no significant changes in this variable in fish acclimated to cold temperatures. In contrast to the negative effects of food deprivation on white muscle glycogen and glucose levels, the concentrations of white muscle PCr and ATP were not greatly affected by food deprivation under any of the experimental conditions. Taken together, these results clearly show that food deprivation can have an important influence on the storage of energy metabolites for anaerobic energy production, particularly in small fish at warm temperatures. In the future, it may be very important to consider the physiological effects of short-term food deprivation when interpreting results from studies in which fish have been fasted prior to treatments such as exercise.     

Vitamin C status and physiological response of the gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata L., to stressors associated with aquaculture

Gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata L., fed diets of equal vitamin C content were exposed to three different stressors–hyposalinity, shallow water and handling–and the effect of each on the internal homeostasis of the fish was evaluated. The individuals subjected to hyposaline stress exhibited no significant changes in plasma osmolality. Na⁺. Cl^- K⁺, glucose, protein and triglyceride concentrations. Hepatic glycogen content was significantly lower in the fish subjected to the lower salinity (12%o), while the red muscle glycogen was unaltered. Amongst the challenged individuals, tissue ascorbate content was not significantly altered. Shallow water stress significantly diminished the liver and red muscle glycogen content, and lowered the liver. kidney and spleen vitamin C concentrations in the stressed fish. No significant changes were recorded in the plasma glucose, protein and triglyceride concentrations. In response to handling stress, no significant differences were detected in any of the measured parameters, with the exception of plasma glucose levels and the splenic L-ascorbic acid and ascorbate-2-sulphate (vitamin C2) contents. The lack of existing standardization of both experimental designs and analytical methods made comparisons of the present data with the work of other authors difficult, thus highlighting the necessity of coordinated research in this field.     

草鱼蛋白质和脂肪代谢对饥饿胁迫的响应

实验选取平均体质量(31.86±1.47) g的草鱼, 随机分为2个实验组, 对照组(CG)和饥饿组(SG), 每组3个平行, 饥饿处理15、30、45和60 d, 测定饥饿对鱼体的生长、肌肉生化组成、血液生化指标以及蛋白质代谢的影响。结果表明: 饥饿组肥满度、脏体比、肝体比显著低于对照组。随着饥饿时间的延长, 草鱼肌肉中的水分含量逐渐增加, 脂肪和蛋白质含量呈现降低趋势, 脂肪含量在4个时期没有明显的差异(P>0.05), 水分和蛋白质含量分别呈现差异性增加和降低的趋势。血清总蛋白在饥饿15 d时与对照组没有明显的差异(P>0.05), 其后3个时期对照组显著高于饥饿组(P<0.05), 但饥饿组后3个时期趋于稳定。随着饥饿时间的延长, 白蛋白、总胆固醇和甘油三脂含量在4个时期与对照组都有明显变化(P<0.05), 饥饿组呈现先降低后升高再降低的波浪形变化。丙氨酸氨基转移酶活性在15、60 d时与对照组没有明显的变化(P>0.05), 在30 d时先降低, 45 d时显著升高(P<0.05)。随着饥饿时间的延长, 与对照组相比RNA︰DNA在肌肉中没有明显的差异(P>0.05), 在肝胰脏中与对照组呈现显著性差异, 随着时间的延长饥饿组呈现先降低后增高的趋势。谷氨酸脱氢酶活性在肌肉中于饥饿15 d时与对照组没有明显差异(P<0.05), 其后比对照组显著增加, 随着时间的延长饥饿组谷氨酸脱氢酶活性呈现上升的趋势; 在15、45 d时与对照组没有明显的变化(P>0.05), 在30、45 d时显著升高(P<0.05)。肝胰脏中谷氨酸脱氢酶活性在4个时期比对照组有显著的增加; 与肌肉相比, 肝胰脏和血清中谷氨酸脱氢酶活性是一种有效的反应蛋白质代谢的指标。草鱼对体内贮能物质(蛋白质和脂肪)的动用并不是简单地与饥饿时间呈线性相关, 而是出现周期性和阶段性起伏的变化。     

Effect of temperature on muscle lactate metabolic recovery in sea bass (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Dicentrarchus labrax</Emphasis>, L.) juveniles exposed to exhaustive exercise

Muscle lactate metabolic recovery in sea bass juveniles was studied in respect to the water temperature. The fish used in this study were cultured with the semi-extensive mesocosm method, and the water temperatures were 15 and 20°C. Fish were led to exhaustion by exercising in a swimming channel, and the muscle lactate levels were measured seven times before and after exercise. The results showed that muscle lactate concentration rises during exercise until it reaches a maximum (exhaustion point), and then it keeps falling during the recovery time. Also, fish exercised at 20°C exhibited higher lactate values at the exhaustion point and faster decomposition rates during recovery.     

A comparison of constant acceleration swimming speeds when acceleration rates are different with critical swimming speeds in Chinese bream under two oxygen tensions

To investigate the effect of acceleration rates on the constant acceleration test speed (U _cat) and to compare U _cat with the critical swimming speed (U _crit) in Chinese bream (Parabramis pekinensis), the U _cat test at acceleration rates of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 cm s^?2 and the U _crit test in juvenile fish at 20 °C in either normoxia (>90 % saturation oxygen tension) or hypoxia (30 % saturation) were compared. The lactate concentration ([lactate]) of white muscle, liver and plasma and the glycogen concentration ([glycogen]) of white muscle and liver were also measured to identify whether tissue substrate depletion or tissue lactate accumulation correlated with exhaustion. The U _cat decreased with the acceleration rate, and there was no significant difference between U _crit and U _cat at lower acceleration rates. Hypoxia resulted in lower U _cat and U _crit, and the difference increased with decreased acceleration rates of the U _cat test, possibly due to the increased contribution of aerobic components in U _crit or U _cat at low acceleration rates. Hypoxia elicited a significant decrease in muscle [glycogen] and an increase in muscle and liver [lactate] in resting fish. All post-exercise fish had similar muscle [lactate], suggesting that tissue lactate accumulation may correlate with exercise exhaustion. Unlike hypoxia, exercise induced an increase in muscle [lactate] and a significant increase in plasma [lactate], which were worthy of further investigation. The similar swimming speed and biochemical indicators after exercise in the U _crit and U _cat groups at low acceleration rates suggested that U _cat can be an alternative for the more frequently adopted protocols in U _crit in Chinese bream and possibly in other cyprinid fish species.     

Fasting combined with long catch duration modifies the physio‐metabolic response and flesh quality of rainbow trout

Pre‐slaughter handling involves fasting fish and catching them, which can affect fish welfare and flesh quality, but few studies have considered their combined effects. In this study, adult rainbow trout (320 ± 10 g average weight) were fasted for 7 days (135.6 degree days) and subjected to a long catch duration (20 min), compared with controls (no fasting or short catch duration). Condition factor, organ weight indexes and carcass yield decreased with fasting but not catch duration. Plasma concentrations of cortisol, glucose and lactate increased after a long catch, while plasma triglycerides decreased with fasting. Liver glycogen concentration was lower in fasted fish, and liver luminosity and chroma were higher after fasting with a long catch. Regarding flesh quality, rigor mortis resolved more slowly and final muscle pH at 48 hr post‐mortem was higher for fasted fish with a long catch time. Muscle glycogen concentration was higher in fasted fish, where chroma was also lower. Fasted fish had lower lipid oxidation, but there were no differences in fat content in muscle. Fasted fish with a long catch duration also had less monounsaturated and more saturated fatty acids. In conclusion, a long catch triggered a stress response that had negative effects on flesh quality, independently of fasting.     

Influence of oral administration of estradiol-17β and testosterone on growth,digestion, food conversion and metabolism in the underyearling red sea bream,Chrysophrys major

Estradiol-17 (E2) administered in the diet to the red sea bream Chrysophrys major did not affect appetite, food conversion efficiency, protein efficiency ratio and specific growth rate. Serum concentrations of total protein, albumin, globulin, vitellogenin, -amino acids, total lipid, free fatty acids, cholesterol and calcium were elevated. The hepatosomatic index was also increased. Activities of hepatic enzymes including lactate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and glutamate-pyruvate transaminase were higher than found in untreated control fish. Intestinal activity of leucine aminopeptidase was augmented. However, there were no changes in muscle water, protein, lipid and glycogen content. In contrast, testosterone (T) given by the same route increased appetite, food conversion efficiency, protein efficiency ratio and specific growth rate. There were no alterations in serum protein and calcium concentrations but serum glucose, ammonia and triglyceride levels were elevated. Hepatic glycogen content was increased. The activities of hepatic fructose- 1,6-diphosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase and glycogen synthetase and intestinal activities of alkaline phosphatase and -glutamyltransferase were higher than noted on control fish. The results reveal that estradiol-17 and testosterone exerted different metabolic effects in the red sea bream and they suggest that testosterone exerts its anabolic actions by increasing appetite, food conversion efficiency and activities of digestive enzymes.     

三种糖源对凡纳滨对虾仔虾期饥饿和补偿生长后营养物质代谢的影响

为了解2种状态(饥饿和复投喂)下投喂3种糖源对凡纳滨对虾仔虾生长、虾体组成成分、代谢指标的影响,实验共5个处理,分别为饥饿组S0、对照组C、实验组S1、S2、S3(在基础饲料中糖源分别为：葡萄糖、蔗糖、玉米淀粉)。实验选取体质量为(1.84±0.23) g的凡纳滨对虾仔虾用方形纱制网兜独立喂养,进行为期12 d的饥饿实验后继续复投喂12 d。结果显示,饥饿后仔虾体组成成分及相关酶[脂肪酶(LPS)、磷酸果糖激酶(PFK)、已糖激酶(HK)、谷氨酰胺合成酶(GS)]差异显著;仔虾肝糖原、肌糖原均呈现出反复升降的过程,饥饿8 d后肝糖原降到最低值,肌糖原短暂回升后显著下降。复投喂4 d后S3组增重率最高,实验各组间无显著差异,均低于C组;全虾水分、全虾粗灰分、肌糖原含量无显著差异;S1、S2组虾体粗脂肪含量显著高于S3组;肝糖原、肌糖原均有回升,S1组肝糖原显著低于其他组。复投喂12 d后,S3组LPS活性、HK活性显著高于其他各实验组,GS、PFK含量实验组间无显著差异。研究表明,凡纳滨对虾仔虾饥饿过程中糖原和脂肪先于蛋白质被动用供能;复投喂出现部分补偿生长效应,玉米淀粉作为糖源饲料对凡纳滨对虾仔虾期恢复生长效果最佳。     

MS-222对鳊鱼麻醉保活运输效果的研究

为研究MS-222对鳊鱼保活运输的影响,分析比较了在不同质量浓度MS-222(0、20、40、60、80、100 mg/L和120 mg/L)、不同水温(2、7、15、20℃)和不同鱼水质量比(2∶1、1∶1、1∶3、1∶5)下鳊鱼的存活率,从而确定及筛选最佳的保活运输条件,并检测和分析在保活运输试验中水质指标和鱼体生化指标的变化和影响。试验结果显示,当MS-222质量浓度为60 mg/L、水温7℃、鱼水比1∶3时,保活时间最长,鱼体存活率最高;随着保活时间的延长,水体指标中氨氮含量、微生物、pH均呈上升趋势,而溶解氧水平则呈下降趋势;在鱼体指标中,肌肉中糖原、pH下降,乳酸含量上升;在血液指标中乳酸脱氢酶、谷草转氨酶、血糖、尿素和肌酐均显著增加(P<0.05),说明随着保活时间的延长,鱼体肝脏和肾脏组织代谢水平受到一定的影响,但其变化幅度均小于对照组。研究结果表明,在鳊鱼保活过程中可适当使用MS-222麻醉剂以延长存活时间和提高存活率。     

干露胁迫对脊尾白虾(Exopalaemon carinicauda)呼吸代谢相关酶的影响

为了研究离水干露对脊尾白虾(Exopalaemon carinicauda)呼吸代谢能力的影响,以常温干露(22-24℃)、低温干露(4℃)2个实验组和1个对照组进行脊尾白虾干露胁迫实验,于胁迫后60、90、120、180 min取组织,测定琥珀酸脱氢酶(SDH)、细胞色素氧化酶(CCO)、延胡索酸还原酶(FRD)、乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)4种呼吸代谢酶活力和乳酸含量.结果显示,常温干露组肝胰腺、鳃、肌肉SDH和CCO活力随干露时间的延长而降低,且显著低于对照组(P＜0.05);FRD、LDH活力和肌肉乳酸含量随胁迫时间的延长呈先升高后降低趋势,且显著高于对照组(P＜0.05).低温干露组在胁迫60 min时,各组织呼吸代谢酶活力和肌肉乳酸含量与对照组无显著差异(P＞0.05),之后的变化趋势和常温干露组相同.常温干露组和低温干露组中肝胰腺和鳃SDH/FRD比值的变化幅度大于肌肉.研究表明,脊尾白虾通过提高无氧代谢来应对干露胁迫;低温干露下的脊尾白虾在胁迫早期可以维持有氧呼吸,肝胰腺和鳃比肌肉对干露胁迫更加敏感.     

The effect of ultrafiltered fish protein hydrolysate levels on the liver and muscle metabolic profile of juvenile turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.) by 1H NMR‐based metabolomics studies

A ¹H NMR‐based metabolomics approach was to explore the effect of ultrafiltered fish protein hydrolysate (UF) levels on the liver and muscle metabolic profile of juvenile turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.). Fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) was produced from by‐products by enzymatic treatment, and UF was obtained by diluting FPH followed filtration. Fish were fed diets containing fish meal protein, which was, respectively, replaced by UF protein 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 g kg^?1 of dietary total protein (UF‐0, UF‐5, UF‐10, UF‐15 and UF‐20) for 68 days. OPLS‐DA of liver and muscle showed that high levels of UF in diets may lead to corresponding tissue metabolites changes. In liver tissue, changing metabolites included dimethylamine, N,N‐dimethylglycine, valine, isoleucine, leucine, arginine and alanine and were mainly involved in choline metabolism and amino acid metabolism. For muscle tissue, changing metabolites included lactate, alanine, proline, fumarate, tyrosine, histidine, cystathionine and taurine. And the metabolites were mainly involved in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, proline metabolism and taurine metabolism. ¹H NMR‐based metabolomics is a useful approach to investigate different levels of UF on metabolic profile in liver and muscle tissues combined with the growth.     

Gluconeogenesis in trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) white muscle: purification and characterization of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity in vitro

Studies of the enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) have been undertaken in order to illuminate aspects of skeletal muscle gluconeogenesis in these animals. Maximal activities in crude homogenates of several organs suggest that the liver possesses the greatest FBPase activity on a unit g^–1 tissue basis but that the white muscle, owing to its bulk, contributes substantially to whole body FBPase activity. Studies of fructose-6-phosphate-1-kinase (PFK) and FBPase in crude homogenates of several organs suggests an important role for intracellular pH in regulating the relative carbon flux through the FBPase/PFK locus in vivo. Furthermore, a three-step purification scheme is described for trout white muscle FBPase by which a stable and homogeneous (by SDS PAGE) enzyme preparation (isoelectric point = 7.2; molecular weight = 37.6 kd) was obtained. Kinetic studies of the purified enzyme were undertaken at 20°C under conditions reflective of "rest" and "exercise/recovery" intramuscular pH in vivo. Affinity for substrate (F-1,6-P₂) was increased (Km = 6.88 versus 2.44 mol 1-^–1 as was enzyme activity when pH was lowered from 7.0 to 6.5. Various inhibitor metabolites are identified including F-2,6-P₂ (mixed-type inhibitor, K_i = 0.201 mol 1^–1, pH 7.0) and AMP (non-competitive inhibitor, K_i = 0.438 mol 1^–1, pH 7.0). Inhibition by F-2,6-P₂ was strongly alleviated by a reduction in pH from 7.0 to 6.5 (I₅₀ increased from 0.14 to 0.32 mol 1^–1). AMP on the other hand was a more potent inhibitor at pH 6.5 but this inhibition was totally reversed under conditions of citrate, NH₄ ⁺ and AMP typical of muscle during recovery from exercise in vivo. In purified white muscle enzyme preparations, FBPase demonstrated maximal activity at pH 6.5 whereas the optimal pH of PFK was 7.0 or greater. Indeed, it appears from these in vitro data that regulation by metabolite levels as well as pH are required for net FBPase flux in vivo. It is concluded, therefore that trout white muscle FBPase demonstrates the potential to play an important enzymatic role in the control of intramuscular gluconeogenesis in these animals. The results are discussed in relation to present knowledge regarding the metabolic responses of trout white muscle to, and its subsequent recovery from, exhaustive exercise.
