Spermatozoa of common carp Cyprinus carpio are typically consist of a primitive head without acrosome, a midpiece with several mitochondria, a centriolar complex (proximal
and distal centriole), and one flagellum. During an evaluation of the motility of common carp spermatozoa, we found spermatozoa
with more than one flagellum and/or “double head” in three different individuals. This may be related to abnormal spermatogenesis.
Ultrastructure and physiological parameters of spermatozoa were examined using light microscopy (dark field with stroboscopic
illumination), transmission and scanning electron microscopy, and flow cytometry. The recorded pictures and videos were evaluated
using Olympus MicroImage software. All spermatozoa with more than one flagellum had a larger head and shorter flagella. They
occasionally demonstrated several cytoplasmic channels separating the flagella from the midpiece. Each flagellum was based
upon its own centriolar complex, with the connection of the flagellum to the head always at a constant angle. The flagella
always consisted of nine peripheral pairs and one central doublet of microtubules. Sperm exhibited a relative DNA content
similar to that found in sperm from normal males, with higher coefficients of variation. Although similar abnormalities have
been found in livestock, where they were described as a defect in spermiogenesis, no comparable results have been reported
in fish. The frequency at which these abnormalities occurs, the fertilization ability of males with defects in spermiogenesis,
the influence of these abnormalities on progeny in terms of ploidy level, and the occurrence of deformities warrant further
investigation. 相似文献

The effects of replacing fish meal (FM) with corn gluten meal (CGM) on growth and physiological performance were evaluated in common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Six experimental diets were formulated by substituting 0 (control), 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% CGM protein for FM protein. The concentrations of dietary protein in the experimental diets were 27.8–29% and the P:E ratios were 14.7–15.46 mg/kJ. Eighteen fish with an initial weight of 13.5?±?0.1 g were allocated to each of 18 circular tanks (450 L) to give triplicate groups for each dietary treatment. The fish were fed to satiation for 8 weeks. At the end of the feeding trial, growth indices, body proximate composition, and hematological and biochemical parameters were measured. Blood samples were taken from six fish in each tank. Final weight and total length were significantly higher in fish fed 100% CGM (27.8?±?1.2 g and 11.9?±?0.3 cm) than for those fed the control (22.7?±?1.4 g and 10.9?±?0.5 cm) or 20% CGM (22.3?±?1.2 g and 11?±?0.4 cm) diets. No effect of FM replacement by CGM was observed for condition factor or hepatosomatic index (P?>?0.05). The highest value of protein productive value (14.31?±?0.65) was observed in fish fed 20% CGM (P?<?0.05). There were no significant differences in percentage body moisture and fat, but percentages of protein and ash were significantly different among experimental groups; the highest values of protein (15.6?±?0.24%) and ash (3.01?±?0.26%) were recorded in fish fed 40% CGM. For hematological parameters, the highest number of white blood cells (4.1?±?0.1?×?103 mm?3) was observed in fish fed 100% CGM (P?<?0.05). In addition, the highest hematocrit (42.1?±?0.7%) and triglyceride (294.11?±?23.82 mg dl?1) were seen in fish fed the diet containing 40% CGM, while 80% CGM gave the highest cholesterol level (204.44?±?9.0 mg dl?1; P?<?0.05). Replacement of FM with CGM had no negative effects on growth and physiological parameters of common carp fingerlings in this short (8 weeks) trial, suggesting that it may be feasible to replace FM with CGM in diets formulated for juvenile common carp. 相似文献

Several studies of fish have shown that aluminum may induce hypoxia, hypercapnia, metabolic acidosis, and respiratory failure.
In lymphocytes, morphologic abnormalities and reduced immune activity have been observed. Nevertheless, there is little data
on oxidative stress and such data are essential in order to identify its mechanism of action. The common carp Cyprinus carpio, an omnivorous fish commonly used in commercial aquaculture, has been proposed as a test organism in toxicologic assays due
to its economic importance and wide geographic distribution. The aim of this work was to evaluate Al-induced oxidative stress
in lymphocytes of the common carp C. carpio. Specimens were exposed to three different concentrations of Al (0.05, 120, and 239 mg/l) in a static exposure system for
96 h. At the end of the exposure period, blood was collected and lymphocytes were separated. Lipid peroxidation, oxidized
protein content and the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase were measured. Results show
that the tested Al concentrations modified the activity of antioxidant enzymes and elicited higher levels of lipid peroxidation
and oxidized proteins. The degree of damage induced was concentration and tissue dependent. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: A ghrelin gene has been cloned and sequenced in common carp Cyprinus carpio . Ghrelin cDNA is composed of 461 bp [with a 36-bp 5'-untranslated region (UTR) and a 113-bp 3'-UTR], which translates into a protein of 103 amino acid residues. Carp ghrelin (preproghrelin) contained a predicted signal peptide of 26 amino acid residues, the ghrelin domain ( Gly 27 – Val 45 ) and C-terminal peptide ( Gly 46 – Phe 103 ). Homology analysis of the ghrelin domain of carp with that of other known ghrelin in vertebrates showed good similarity to teleost ghrelin (50–81.8%). Hydropathy analysis based on the deduced amino acid sequence of ghrelin domains in teleosts showed a similar profile. Carp ghrelin clustered with ghrelin of goldfish Carassius auratus and other teleosts, away from mammalian, reptilian, avian, amphibian and chondrichthian ghrelin, by phylogenetic analysis. Genomic organization of carp ghrelin gene was composed of four exons and three introns, which was the same as that of other teleosts and human ghrelin genes. The carp ghrelin gene was expressed in unstimulated tissues such as foregut, hindgut, spleen and brain. In spleen cells, expression of the ghrelin gene increased upon stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), phytohemagglutinin (PHA) or imiquimod. The identification of carp ghrelin gene and the analysis of the modulation of its expression in immune-activated conditions will allow a more complete analysis of the roles of ghrelin in teleosts. 相似文献

Jatropha curcas is a multipurpose and drought-resistant shrub or small tree widespread all over the tropics and subtropics. Its seeds are
rich in oil, and the Jatropha kernel meal obtained after oil extraction is rich in protein. However, presence of toxic and
antinutritional constituents restricts its use in fish feed. Jatropha kernel meal was detoxified. Common carp, Cyprinus carpio, fingerlings (15; av. body mass 10.9 ± 0.65 g) were randomly distributed in three groups with five replicates. A 6-week feeding
experiment was conducted in a respirometer system to evaluate the growth performance, nutrient utilisation and energy budget.
Fish were fed isonitrogenous diets (38% crude protein): control diet (C
ontrol group) containing fish meal (FM) protein based protein and two other diets replacing 75% FM protein with detoxified Jatropha
kernel meal (DJKM, J
atropha group) and soybean meal (SBM, S
oybean group). At the end of the experiment, body mass gain, metabolic growth rate, protein efficiency ratio, protein productive
value, energy retention, efficiency of metabolised energy for growth and efficiency of energy retention were determined. These
parameters were high and statistically similar for C
ontrol and J
atropha groups and significantly lower (P < 0.05) for S
oybean group. Whereas a reverse trend was observed for energy expenditure per g protein retained in fish body. No significant differences
were found in heat released, gross energy uptake, metabolised energy intake, metabolisability, energy expenditure, energy
expenditure per g protein fed and apparently unmetabolised energy. Conclusively, common carp–fed plant protein (DJKM and SBM)
and FM protein–based diets exhibited equal average metabolic rate. 相似文献

The effect of heavy metals on the motility parameters of common carp sperm was investigated. In vitro test systems are widespread in ecotoxicology, and fish sperm can be a suitable model. For this reason, studies had been carried out in this topic; however, the published methods are not standard in several aspects (donor species, measured endpoint, etc.). In this study, a previously published toxicology-aimed sperm analysis protocol was tested to examine the effect of heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, mercury, nickel, zinc,) on common carp sperm. According to our results, PMOT is the most sensitive of the investigated parameters: dose-response was observed in case of each metal at low concentrations, already after 30 min of exposure. VCL was less sensitive: lower effects were observed at the same concentrations compared to PMOT. Among the examined parameters, LIN was the least affected: a dose-response was observed only in case of arsenic and mercury. The same sensitivity of motility parameters was observed on zebrafish sperm previously. Moreover, we found that PMOT, VCL, and LIN of common carp sperm were affected at the same concentrations as it had been observed in zebrafish, when the identical analytical protocol was applied. The only exception was As3+, where common carp sperm proved to be more sensitive: lower concentrations already reduced its motility parameters. Consequently, PMOT of common carp sperm is an accurate and fast bioindicator of aquatic pollution. 相似文献

The spermatozoa of oviparous fish, such as feral carp (Cyprinus carpio), are immotile in the presence of semen plasma or isotonic solutions, and to obtain good motility, they must be diluted with
suitable medium. The objective of this study was to identify the best activating solution for feral carp sperm. Sperm motilities
were compared in the new activating solution (a): (50 mM NaCl, 30 mM KCl, 30 mM Tris, pH = 8.5) and activating solution (b):
(50 mM NaCl, 40 mM KCl, 30 mM Tris, pH = 8.5) based on effect of pH with everyone of Na+ and K+ ions versus four other activating solutions Billard’s saline solution, Poupard’s saline solution, distilled water and hatchery
water that is routinely used for extending carp semen. Our results showed that maximum total motility period and percentage
of motile sperm were seen in selected saline solution (a). The present study describes an activating solution that prolongs
feral carp sperm motility. 相似文献

Using a tame animal, the impact of otter (Lutra lutra) disturbance on over-wintering carp (Cyprinus carpio) was monitored in two experiments, 133 and 140 days, respectively, over two consecutive winters (November–April). The level
of stress in over-wintering carp exposed to various intensities of disturbance by otters was quantified using biological indicators
of stress (cortisol, cortisone, indices of nitrogen, carbohydrate, lipid and mineral metabolism and activity of basic blood
plasma enzymes) taken from blood plasma of stocked carp at the end of the winter seasons (when the photoperiod was 12 light:12
dark, respectively, 13L:10D). Moreover, condition (Fulton’s coefficient of condition and fat content in muscles) and mortality
rate of that carp were measured after over-wintering and also after the subsequent vegetation period. The analysis of blood
and tissue samples of experimental fish showed changes in nitrogen, carbohydrate and mineral metabolism as well as levels
of hormones and fat reserves. Higher response to stress in metabolism of carp with lower intensity of disturbance by otter
suggests that high level of disturbance can lead to metabolic adaptation of carp to stress. The effect of stress on the mortality
rate of carp during the over-wintering is not clear. Nevertheless, the negative effect of stress on survival, condition and
growth rate of carp in the subsequent vegetation period was not observed. 相似文献

The objective of this study on common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was to obtain and predict the first cross-validated data of the fat content on market size carps using a non-invasive or non-destructive method in situ. The carps (1680 ± 388 g; n = 136) used were from a semi-intensive system and were on a different diet (cereal, pelleted and extruded diet). For the evaluation of the fat content, a Fish Fatmeter FM 692 from Distell.com. (FFM) and a manual measurement of back fat height using a digital calliper were used. For the prediction model, the following basic body measurements (variables) were used: total body length, body length, body height, the width of the body, and the circuit of the body. The body weight, weight of intestines, weight of gonads, weight of hepatopancreas, and fillet yield (%) were measured, and the Fulton coefficient was calculated. The study was focussed on evaluating the applicability of these methods and the accuracy of the obtained result, respectively. Results showed that all the rapid methods had a strong correlation. Multiple regression models with forward selection of variables were used throughout. The final prediction model between predicted and observed values for the fat content for FFM and calliper being adjusted index of determination is shown here (R adj 2 = 0.88; 5 variables and R adj 2 = 0.91; 7 variables), respectively. 相似文献

The effect of sodium and potassium concentrations as well as optimal pH on the motility of common carp Cyprinus carpio L. sperm during short-term storage in artificial seminal plasma (ASP) was investigated. Sperm was collected from individual males (n?=?5) and each sample diluted tenfold (1:9) in ASP (sperm:extender) containing 2 mM CaCl2, 1 mM Mg2SO4 and 20 mM Tris at pH 8.0 and supplemented by the following concentrations of sodium and potassium (mM/mM): 0/150, 20/130, 40/110, 75/75, 110/40, 130/20 and 150/0. The osmolality of all ASP variants was set at 310 mOsm kg?1. Sperm motility was measured using a CASA system during 72 h of storage. Immediately after dilution, sperm motility was high (90%) both in each variant and in the control group (fresh sperm). After 72-h storage, the highest sperm motility was noted in ASP containing 110 mM NaCl and 40 mM KCl. No differences were found in the motility of samples preserved within the pH range of 7.0–9.0. Our data suggest that for the short-term storage of common carp sperm, whereas the pH of the solution does not play a crucial role, a specific potassium concentration of around 40 mM is required. 相似文献

The effects of Roundup (glyphosate-based herbicide) on peripheral blood parameters and hematopoietic tissue cellular composition and activity in common carp juveniles were evaluated. The fish were exposed for 7 days at 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, or 5.0 mg/L of glyphosate. In fish exposed to Roundup, hematological alterations were observed; however, most of them were not directly related to the herbicide concentration. An increase in Ht and MCV, and decrease in Hb, MCH, and MCHC compared to the control were observed. Fish exposed to Roundup showed also a reduction in WBC and oxidative metabolic activity of phagocytes (NBT) compared to the control. The fish exposed to 0.1 and 5.0 mg/L showed increased glucose values, whereas in those subjected to 0.5 mg/L blood glucose concentration declined compared to the control. Cholesterol significantly increased at 0.1 mg/L and decreased at 5.0 mg/L. Analysis of head kidney hematopoietic tissue revealed that Roundup at concentrations 0.5 and 5.0 mg/L caused a significant increase in the rate of cell proliferation accompanied by an increase in frequency of early blast cells. No significant differences occurred in percentages of most cell lineages but the frequency of monocytoid, eosinophilic, and basophilic lineage cells significantly increased in the herbicide-exposed fish compared to the control. The obtained results revealed that sublethal concentrations of Roundup that may occur in polluted natural waters caused a slight anemic and significant immunosuppressive response in common carp juveniles. On the other hand, they indicate a considerable compensatory potential of carp hematopoietic system. 相似文献

The morphogenesis of head kidney haematopoietic cells in common carp has been shown to be very similar to that of higher vertebrates.
The erythropoietic series consisted of the erythroblasts (basophilic, polychromatic and orthochromic), young erythrocyte and
erythrocyte. The morphological changes that occur during maturation process are reduction in size and further increase at
mature stage, gradual chromatin condensation and the increase in haemoglobin content. Maturation stages of neutrophils and
basophils encompassed the young progranulocyte, progranulocyte and metagranulocyte. The early blast cells, basophilic lineage
and lymphocytes were regularly present in kidney. In the monocytoid series in kidneys, promonocytes and mature monocytes were
observed. Precursor stages of the eosinophile and thrombocyte were not discernible (although mature cells were observed).
Lymphoid cells were the most abundant, followed by granuloid, thrombocyte, erythroid, blast and monocytoid cells. The neutrophilic
progranulocyte was the most frequent granuloid cell. The lymphocyte was the most frequent cell in the kidney and the most
numerous of the lymphoid lineage. 相似文献

This review provides the first historical account of the ecology and biology of common carp Cyprinus carpio in the Danube and Adriatic basins of Croatia, and emphasises the species’ economic relevance and management implications. As a semi-native species that is native to the Danube but translocated across the Adriatic Basin, carp plays an important role for aquaculture, recreational and artisanal fisheries. However, original strains have now disappeared, and because of genetic pollution in inland waters there is an increasing demand for restoring populations of the now rare and threatened wild carp, making conservation measures a priority. Translocations of carp across water bodies of the Adriatic Basin mostly for food supply did not prove successful in the long term, as the resulting ecological impacts may have been higher than the expected economic advantages. Measures for the prevention of further (uncontrolled) carp re-stocking are therefore necessary and this will require closer collaboration between scientists and environmental managers. 相似文献

To determine the effects of Roundup, a commercial formulation of glyphosate, gametes, and embryos of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L) was exposed to wide range of herbicide concentrations (0.0, 0.1, 0.5, 2.0, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0, and 50.0 mg/l). The obtained results showed different effects of Roundup on common carp gametes. Herbicide reduced swelling of eggs (but the effect was not concentration-related), while sperm showed low sensitivity to Roundup (time of spermatozoa motility was reduced in a significant way only at 20 mg/l, and at remaining concentrations, only a slight tendency was observed). During the embryonic development, Roundup caused a decrease of common carp embryonic survival (and the effect was concentration-related); however, it had no effect on development rate. During the embryogenesis, three types of embryo body malformation were observed: yolk sac edema, spine curvature, and shortening of body, but their frequencies were not associated with the presence or concentration of herbicide. However, Roundup affected quality of newly hatched larvae of common carp by increasing their mortality. No effect of herbicide on percentage of deformed larvae was observed but larvae hatched in water with Roundup tended to show more complex anomalies compared to those from the control. Obtained data showed that even low concentrations of this herbicide in waters can significantly reduce egg swelling, survival of embryos, and quality of fish larvae. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of bifenthrin on common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.). The 96-h LC50 value of Talstar EC 10 (active substance 100 g l−1 bifenthrin) was found to be 57.5 μg l−1. Examination of haematological and biochemical profiles and histological tissue examination was performed on common carp
after 96 h of exposure to Talstar EC 10 (57.5 μg l−1). The experimental group showed significantly higher (P < 0.01) values of plasma glucose, ammonia, aspartate aminotransferase and creatine kinase as well as the relative and absolute
monocyte count, compared with the control group. Histological examination revealed teleangioectasiae of secondary gill lamellae
and degeneration of hepatocytes. The bifenthrin-based Talstar EC 10 pesticide preparation was classified as a substance strongly
toxic for fish. 相似文献

In this study, some biochemical changes of carp (Cyprinus carpio, Linnaeus 1758) tissues were investigated. Studies have been carried out on carp which have regional economical importance.
Storage temperature and time are the most important factors that affect the quality of fish during sales. It was observed
that the temperature varied between 9 and 12°C in sale conditions. In addition, we assumed the arrival time of the fish at
the fish market to be 0 (zero) h. Biochemical analyses [malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and catalase activity] of carp tissues
(muscle, liver, heart, spleen, brain) were carried out on fish which were held for 24 and 48 h, as well as on fresh fish
(0 h). In addition, sensory analysis was conducted by a panel consisting of experienced judges of sensory evaluation. Statistically
significant (P < 0.05) increases in MDA levels were found in liver, muscle, brain and spleen tissues when comparing the 0- and 24-h groups.
But there was no statistically significant (P > 0.05) increase in MDA level in heart tissue of carp after 24 h. There was a statistically significant (P < 0.05) increase in MDA levels in muscle, spleen and heart tissues when comparing the 24- and 48-h groups. In the group examined
at 24 h, it was observed that there were statistically significant differences from the 0 h group values (P < 0.05) for catalase (CAT) activity in muscle, brain, spleen and heart tissues. The decreases in CAT activity in liver and
spleen tissues were found to be statistically significant (P < 0.05) between the group examined at 24 h compared with the group examined at 48 h. Carp maintained good quality during
the selling conditions up to 24 h. This experiment deals with the effects of post-slaughter time and storage temperature on
carp tissues. It is concluded that by considering the storage temperature (9–12°C) and storage time (post-slaughter) the product
maintained acceptable quality up to 24 h. There was significant deterioration of sensory quality, as a result of changes in
chemical constituents. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: Recently, the non-invasive auditory brainstem response (ABR) technique has been applied to the determination of hearing sensitivity in fish. The technique has some advantages over, and methodological differences from, the classical techniques. The auditory thresholds of common carp were measured by the ABR technique. The classical method was applied to measure cardiac response by electrocardiogram (ECG) after conditioning with electric shock. The most sensitive frequency obtained by ABR was 505 Hz, and by ECG, 1000 Hz. The shapes of the audiogram obtained by ABR and ECG were similar, though threshold levels in both audiograms differed from each other. Furthermore, audiograms obtained by using behavioral techniques were compared with those taken by the ABR and ECG techniques to assess the validity of the ABR technique for testing fish hearing sensitivity. The measured threshold levels increased in the order of behavioral, ABR, and ECG techniques, in the range below 1000 Hz. 相似文献

Cadmium (Cd) compounds are widely distributed toxic environmental and industrial pollutants, and they may bring danger to
growth and development of aquatic organisms. In China, the Oujiang color common carp, Cyprinus carpio var. color, is a very important fish, from an economic point of view, and is well used for fish culture in paddy fields. The purpose
of this study was to show the low concentrations of cadmium-induced oxidative stress response and DNA damage in the livers
of Cyprinus carpio var. color. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH) in liver were measured after exposure to Cd levels
(0.41, 0.52, 0.69, 1.03 and 2.06 mg/L, respectively) for 7 days and compared with the control groups. DNA damage, including
indicators of damage percentage, DNA tail length (TL) and DNA tail moment (TM) were also analyzed by comet assays. Results
showed that MDA and GSH levels in all treatment groups increased significantly relative to the controls (P < 0.01). Treatment with Cd at concentration of 0.41 mg/L increased SOD activity, while treatment with Cd at concentrations
>0.41 mg/L inhibited SOD activities. DNA damage percentage, TL and TM also significantly increased when the Cd level was >0.41 mg/L.
Positive correlations were also found between DNA damage levels and MDA levels (r = 0.74 for DNA damage percentage, r = 0.83 for TL, r = 0.84 for TM; P < 0.01 for all) as well as between GSH and MDA levels (r = 0.77, P < 0.01). These results strongly suggested that Cd-induced DNA damage in the livers of Cyprinus carpio var. color was due to lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress. 相似文献

To evaluate the effect of thermal and microbial stress on the immune response of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.), relative mRNA expression level of pro-inflammatory cytokines [tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-1β] and other genes related to immune or stress response [inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), superoxide dismutase one (SOD1), and glucocorticoid receptor (GR)] was measured by quantitative PCR (qPCR). In addition, total protein and total immunoglobulin level in blood plasma of experimental common carp was also assayed. All the above parameters were estimated 24 h post-challenge with Gram-negative bacterium, Aeromonas hydrophila. Common carp (54.89?±?6.90 g) were initially exposed to 20 °C (control group) and 30 °C (thermal stress group) water temperature for 30 days, followed by experimental challenge with 2.29?×?108 colony forming unit/mL (CFU/mL; LD50 dose) of A. hydrophila. Exposure of fish to thermal stress and subsequently challenge with A. hydrophila significantly (P?<?0.05) increases the IL-1β mRNA expression in head kidney and spleen of common carp by ~?39.94 and ~?4.11-fold, respectively. However, TNF-α mRNA expression in spleen decreased ~?5.63-fold in control fish challenged with A. hydrophila. Thermal stress and challenge with bacterium suppresses the iNOS and GR mRNA expression in spleen of common carp. Moreover, significant (P?<?0.05) increase in total protein content of blood plasma (~?43 mg/g) was evident in fish exposed to thermal stress and challenged with A. hydrophila. In conclusion, our study highlights the importance of elevated temperature stress and microbial infection in differential regulation of expression of several immunogenes in common carp. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to assess the effects of the anthelminthic, praziquantel, on the haematological and biochemical indices
of the blood of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.). Fish were divided into six groups: two groups received 30 mg kg−1 body weight (bw) of praziquantel, and two groups were given 50 mg kg−1 bw of praziquantel mixed into the heat-treated amyloid vehicle. Fish in the remaining two groups were given only the amyloid
vehicle and were used as controls. Fish were examined either 24 or 96 h after administration. Praziquantel treatment was characterised
by a significantly lower erythrocyte count, haemoglobin level, packed cell volume and total protein at both dose levels after
24 h compared with the controls, but these parameters were similar to the control values at 96 h. The activity of alanine
aminotransferase (ALT) was significantly higher after 96 h in the treated groups, which could be attributed to slight hepatocyte
damage caused by praziquantel. However, the differences between the treated and the control groups were not great, and we
presumed that they were reversible. 相似文献
