低温锻炼对冷胁迫下油茶幼苗光合速率与抗氧化酶活性的影响

以油茶品种"杂优闽1"为试验材料,以未经低温锻炼的油茶幼苗为对照,研究了油茶幼苗在(10±0.5)℃低温锻炼、(2±0.5)℃冷胁迫和常温恢复期间的光合速率和抗氧化酶活性的变化。结果表明:低温锻炼3 d可明显提高油茶幼苗的抗寒性;冷胁迫3 d,经低温锻炼后的油茶幼苗叶片净光合速率和相对含水量明显高于对照;且其在常温下的恢复也较对照迅速。在低温锻炼和冷胁迫期间,油茶幼苗叶片脯氨酸和可溶性糖含量明显增加,且丙二醛(MDA)含量明显低于对照;经低温锻炼的油茶幼苗叶片超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)活性则均明显高于未经低温锻炼的油茶幼苗,说明渗透调节物质含量增加和保护酶活性增强在低温锻炼诱导油茶幼苗的抗寒性上发挥着重要的作用。

植物多酚的抗氧化机理及其在动物生产中的应用

肉及肉制品在加工及贮藏过程中易发生氧化而导致品质下降，在动物日粮中添加植物多酚可抑制脂肪及蛋白质氧化，进而提高肉及肉制品在加工及贮藏过程中的氧化稳定性。植物多酚因具有酚羟基结构而具有清除自由基的抗氧化作用，可提高动物机体及肉制品中抗氧化酶的活性，还可激活Nrf2/ARE信号通路从而提高肉制品在加工及贮藏过程中的抗氧化能力。将植物多酚添加到畜禽日粮中，可促进动物对饲料中营养物质的消化吸收，提高其生产性能，且可提高动物机体的抗氧化酶活性及总抗氧化能力，降低畜禽产品中丙二醛的含量，提高产品的质量，延长产品的货架期。文章介绍了植物多酚，包括黄酮类、酚酸类、非黄酮类化合物及其代表性化合物的结构，并阐述了其抗氧化性机理及其在动物生产中的应用，旨为研究利用植物多酚提高肉制品的氧化稳定性、安全性提供理论参考。

Anaesthetic and antioxidant effects of Myrcia sylvatica (G. Mey.) DC. and Curcuma longa L. essential oils on tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum)

Anaesthetic substances are necessary to reduce fish stress during aquaculture activities. The objectives of this study were: (i) to determine the efficacy of essential oils (EOs) of Myrcia sylvatica (EOMS) and Curcuma longa (EOCL) as anaesthetics for Colossoma macropomum and (ii) to evaluate the effects of rapid anaesthesia and long‐term sedation (6 h) with these oils. Therefore, the main primary stress indicator (cortisol) and secondary factors (biochemical indices, hepatic metabolism, oxidative biomarkers) were measured. Sedation with the EOCL resulted in lower cortisol levels compared to control group. Total cholesterol levels were lower in fish sedated with EOMS than in control. Lactate levels were higher in fish anaesthetized with both EOs and sedated with EOCL compared to control. Both EOs increased hepatic glycogen levels after anaesthesia and EOMS increased this parameter after sedation compared to control. Anaesthesia and sedation with EOs resulted in lower levels of lipid peroxidation (LPO) compared to control. In turn, the activity of some antioxidant enzymes evaluated (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and glutathione‐S‐transferase), the content of non‐protein thiols and total reactive antioxidant potential were higher in tissues of fish anaesthetized and sedated with EOs compared to control. This induction of antioxidant capacity in the tissues could be due to the antioxidant property exerted by these EOs. Thus, EOMS and EOCL are recommended for anaesthesia and sedation of fish because in spite of inducing anaerobic metabolism, these EOs did not alter most biochemical parameters, reduced the LPO and increased the antioxidant capacity in vital tissues.     

急性操作胁迫对四指马鲅幼鱼肝脏组织结构和氧化应激的影响

为探究急性操作胁迫对四指马鲅(Eleutheronema tetradactylum)幼鱼肝脏组织结构以及氧化应激的影响,该研究在离水操作胁迫后不同时间取样,观察肝脏显微结构的变化,并检测相关抗氧化酶活性。结果显示,随着离水胁迫时间的延长,肝脏组织损伤程度呈现先上升后下降的趋势,胁迫第24小时肝脏基本结构与对照组相似。超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)有相同的变化趋势,胁迫后第2小时显著增加(P0.05)并达到最高值,然后开始下降,最后其值显著低于对照组(P0.05);丙二醛(MDA)含量在胁迫第2~第12小时呈现先升高后下降的变化趋势,第12小时后又有所上升;还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)含量胁迫2 h没有显著变化(P0.05),之后呈先下降后上升的趋势,但其含量仍显著低于对照组(P0.05);总抗氧化能力(T-AOC)胁迫第2小时显著上升(P0.05),之后下降,实验结束时显著低于对照组(P0.05)。结果表明离水操作胁迫对四指马鲅幼鱼肝脏组织结构以及抗氧化酶产生一定的影响,但随着胁迫时间的延长,其组织结构以及抗氧化能力都有一定的恢复趋势。     

Effects of dietary supplementation of Haematococcus pluvialis powder on gonadal development,coloration and antioxidant capacity of adult male Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis)

The green algae Haematococcus pluvialis is an important source of natural astaxanthin as feed additive. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of H. pluvialis powder on gonadal development, coloration and antioxidant capacity of adult male Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis, and four experimental diets were formulated to contain 0, 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6% of H. pluvialis powder. There were four treatments (defined as D1~D4) in this study and each treatment had three replicates. Dietary H. pluvialis contents had no significant effects on survival, body weight gain rate and gonadal development of male E. sinensis. For colour parameters, the total carotenoids content in carapace and hepatopancreas as well as hepatopancreatic lightness (L*) and carapace redness (a*) increased significantly with increasing dietary H. pluvialis (p < 0.05). For the antioxidant indices in the serum, D4 had the lowest activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD), but the highest glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐Px) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), while the malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum and hepatopancreas decreased significantly with the rising content of dietary H. pluvialis (p < 0.05); D1 had the highest levels of SOD, POD and GSH‐Px in hepatopancreas. For the non‐specific immune indices, the highest activities of acid phosphatase (ACP) and γ‐glutamyl transpeptidase (γ‐GT) were found on the serum of D3 and D4 (p < 0.05). D1 had the highest levels of ACP and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in hepatopancreas, while D2 and D3 had the lowest levels of ALP and ACP respectively. These results suggested the optimal dietary natural astaxanthin level was around 40 mg/kg diets.     

Antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory activities of Pinus radiata bark extract in salmonid cell lines

A fish meal supply shortage is limiting aquaculture development. Currently, plant‐based proteins, such as soya bean meal, are being used as an alternative protein source, despite that such a diet can adversely affect fish, such as by inducing an inflammatory response. A possible solution is to include dietary additives in farm diets to counteract negative effects. One such solution originates from pine bark extracts, which present bioactive properties. In this study, the antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties of Pinus radiata bark extracts were evaluated for the first time in a salmonid cell line. This extract chemically demonstrated antioxidant activity through 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH = 58.4 ± 1.1%) and ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP = 575 ± 17 mgEqFe(II)·g extract^?1) assays. Additionally, the extract showed high flavonoid and phenolic compound contents. Up to 100 mg mL^?1, the P. radiata extract showed no cytotoxicity in the CHSE‐214 salmonid embryo cell line. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of the extract (50 μg mL^?1) was evaluated by a dichlorofluorescein (DCFH) assay in the SHK‐1 salmon cell line challenged with an oxidant stimulus (H₂O₂), showing 58.9% activity. The extract also protected DNA from oxidative damage, as observed through a comet assay. When assessing anti‐inflammatory properties in an in vitro inflammation model, the extract significantly reduced the relative expression of the pro‐inflammatory cytokines interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), tumour necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) and interleukin‐8 (IL‐8) and of the inducible cyclooxygenase‐2 (COX‐2) enzyme. These results suggest a potential application of P. radiata bark extract in functional foods in aquaculture.
