Pharmacokinetics and tissue residues of marbofloxacin in crucian carp (Carassius auratus) after oral administration

Pharmacokinetics and residue elimination of marbofloxacin (MBF) were studied in crucian carp (Carassius auratus, 250±30 g) kept at two water temperatures of 15 and 25 °C. Marbofloxacin concentrations in plasma and tissues were analysed by means of high‐performance liquid chromatography using an ultraviolet detector. The limits of detection were 0.02 μg mL^?1, 0.02 μg g^?1, 0.025 μg g^?1, 0.02 μg g^?1 and 0.025 μg g^?1 in plasma and muscle, skin, liver and kidney respectively. Fish were administered orally at a single dosage of 10 mg kg^?1 body weight in the PK group. The data were fitted to two‐compartment open models at both temperatures. At 15 °C, the absorption half‐life () and distribution half‐life (t_1/2α) of the drug were 0.36 and 4.48 h respectively. The corresponding values at 25 °C were 0.23 and 0.87 h respectively. The elimination half‐life (t_1/2β) was 50.75 h at 15 °C and 25.05 h at 25 °C. The maximum MBF concentration (C_max) differed little between 15 (6.43 μg mL^?1) and 25 °C (8.36 μg mL^?1). The time to peak concentration was 1.74 h at 15 °C and 0.78 h at 25 °C. The apparent volume of distribution (V_d/F) of MBF was estimated to be 1.36 and 0.87 L kg^?1 at 15 and 25 °C respectively. The area under the concentration–time curve (AUC) was 301.80 μg mL^?1 h at 15 °C and 182.80 μg mL^?1 h at 25 °C. The total clearance of MBF was computed as 0.03 and 0.05 L h^?1 kg^?1 at 15 and 25 °C respectively. After repeated oral administration at a dosage of 10 mg kg^?1 body weight per day for 3 days, the results showed that the elimination half‐lives () of MBF from all tissues at 15 °C were longer than that at 25 °C. Therefore, water temperature is an important factor to be considered when deciding a reasonable withdrawal time.     

Pharmacokinetics and tissue residues of vancomycin after oral administration in crucian carp

The pharmacokinetics and tissue residues of vancomycin in crucian carp (Carassius auratus) were studied after oral administration of a single dosage of 1 mg/kg body weight at water temperature of 18°C. The drug concentration‐time data were fitted using a two‐compartment open model with first‐order absorption. The vancomycin concentrations in plasma and tissues including muscle, liver and kidney were analyzed by means of liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry. As a result, the plasma absorption rate constant of vancomycin was 3.75/hr and the time point of maximum concentration in plasma was 3.0 hr respectively. The maximum concentration of vancomycin in plasma was 216.58 μg/L. The distribution half‐life and the elimination half‐life in plasma were 6.69 hr and 190 hr, as well as the absorption half‐life of plasma was 0.19/hr. The area under the plasma concentration‐time curve of plasma was 15.12 mg hr/L. The apparent volume of distribution of plasma was estimated to be 4.45 L/kg and the total body clearance was computed as 0.061 L hr^?1 kg^?1. In addition, the maximum tissue concentrations of vancomycin were in the order of liver > kidney > muscle. To guarantee the safety of tissue samples for consumption, it was suggested that the withdrawal time should not be less than 30 days at 18°C. All these results may provide guidance for future vancomycin treatment in aquaculture.     

葡萄糖、维生素C对普安银鲫早期发育的影响

为探究葡萄糖和维生素C（VC）对普安银鲫（Carassius auratus gibelio）早期发育的影响,采用静水溶液浸泡法研究了葡萄糖和VC溶液浸泡中普安银鲫仔鱼出膜时间、孵化率、成活率及卵黄囊仔鱼生长特点。结果显示,葡萄糖溶液质量浓度低于15 g·L^-1,仔鱼出膜时间随着葡萄糖质量浓度的增加而缩短,孵化率、成活率、体质量和全长则升高;葡萄糖溶液质量浓度高于15 g·L^-1对普安银鲫的早期发育表现出抑制作用。VC溶液质量浓度低于30mg·L^-1时,仔鱼出膜时间随着ρ（VC）的增加而降低,孵化率、成活率、体质量和全长则升高。ρ（VC）高于30mg·L^-1对普安银鲫的早期发育表现出抑制作用。研究表明适宜浓度的葡萄糖和VC能促进普安银鲫的早期发育。     

Predation as a determinant of size structure in populations of crucian carp (Carassius carassius) and tench (Tinea tinea)

Predation is an important structuring force in many fish assemblages and may have large, direct lethal effects on prey fish populations but also may affect growth rate and survival indirectly through shifts in behavioral patterns. Some species appear more sensitive to predation and earlier studies in a limited set of Finnish ponds suggests that crucian carp (Carassius carassius) is very sensitive to predation, which results in changes in population size-structure and density. In this study we tested the effect of piscivore presence or absence on crucian carp populations by using data from a large number (>600) of Swedish lakes across a wide geographical area and ranging in size from small ponds to large lakes (0.02–4400 ha). We also included a second species, tench (Tinea tinea), in our analyses. The population size structures of crucian carp and tench were clearly related to the presence or absence of piscivores. In lakes and ponds without piscivores. populations were dominated by small-bodied individuals. When piscivores were present, populations consisted almost exclusively of large individuals. Densities of crucian carp and tench were much higher in ponds and lakes without piscivores. There were no differences in size structure or relative abundance when catches from electrofishing were compared with gill net catches, suggesting that our results are not an effect of a behavioral shift in the presence of piscivores.     

Effects of a dietary administration of purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea) on growth,antioxidant activities and 8 miRNAs expressions in crucian carp (Carassius auratus)

Echinacea purpurea (EP), a globally popular herbal medicine, has been used to treat various diseases in human and animals. However, little has been reported about its effects in fish. In this study, crucian carp (Carassius auratus) were selected to evaluate the effects of EP on growth performance and antioxidant response and the expressions of microRNAs. The results showed EP could stimulate the growth of crucian carp with the best effect was observed at dose of 4 g kg^?1. In serum, the content of hydroxyl radical (·OH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) decreased by EP supplementation, whereas the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione reductase (GR) increased. Similarly, the content of ·OH decreased, and the activities of CAT, GPX and GR increased in liver of crucian carp. Furthermore, in livers of crucian carp, EP supplements upregulated the expressions of the microRNAs (miR‐16, miR‐21, miR‐125b, miR‐146a, miR‐155, miR‐181a and miR‐223), which had been confirmed to participate in regulating antioxidant and immune function in mammals. Our results suggest EP supplements in diets stimulated growth performance and antioxidant response of crucian carp. In liver, the upregulation of specific miRNAs may participate in the antioxidant effects of EP diets.     

Status of the crucian carp, Carassius carassius (L.), in the UK

The crucian carp, Carassius carassius (L.), is a small fish of restricted distribution in the UK, which is probably only native to central and eastern England. The crucian carp is endemic to northern Europe. It has been widely confused with the introduced and congeneric goldfish, Carassius auratus (L.), and forms hybrids with that species and the introduced Cyprinus carpio L. The status of this fish has become confused with the presence of the congener and its hybrids, and it is now thought to be less frequent in occurrence than formerly.

Body depth variation in crucian carp Carassius carassius: an experimental individual-based study

Abstract –  Induced morphological defences, where individuals develop morphological structures as a response to signals from sympatric predators, are common among invertebrates. Such defences have also been reported in a freshwater fish, the crucian carp Carassius carassius . In crucian carp, the presence of piscivorous fish presumably induces the development of a deep body as a defence mechanism. We tested how the growth rate (in body depth, length and mass) of individually tagged crucian carp responds to pike Esox lucius odours and control water. In general, crucian carp exposed to pike odour grew better (both in length and mass) than control fish. The treatment crucian carp also developed deeper bodies than control crucian carp. Further, there was a strong positive relationship between individual growth rate and the rate of change in body depth and this relationship did not differ between control and treatment fish.

Effect of dietary phosphorus levels on growth and body composition of crucian carp,Carassius auratus under indoor and outdoor experiments

Indoor and outdoor experiments were carried out simultaneously to evaluate the effects of dietary phosphorus levels on growth performance and body composition of crucian carp. Monocalcium was used to formulate extruded feed containing available phosphorus (AP) of 1.5 (D1), 4.7 (D2), 6.3 (D3) and 9.0 (D4) g kg^?1. Twelve 500‐L recirculating tanks were assigned to four triplicate groups with each tank stocked with 15 juveniles (39.88 ± 0.14 g) for indoor experiment. Twelve polyethylene enclosures were assigned to four groups with each one stocked with 120 juveniles (44.08 ± 1.36 g). After 8 weeks of feeding, survival ranged from 96% to 100%. Weight gain, special growth rate, protein efficiency ratio and feed conversion rate did not show significant differences among dietary treatments in both experiments. Fish cultured in the enclosures grew better, although D1 and D2 treatments did not reach significant level. Crude protein and phosphorus content of the fish were not significantly affected by dietary phosphorus level. Moisture, crude lipid, crude ash and vertebrae phosphorus were significantly affected by different phosphorus levels. Based on vertebrae phosphorus, crucian carp cultured in the tanks and in the enclosures showed phosphorus deficiency under 4.7 g kg^?1 and 6.3 g kg^?1 AP, respectively.     

急性氨氮胁迫对淇河鲫幼鱼脑、鳃、肝、肾组织结构的影响

随着养殖密度的增加,过量投喂产生的残饵和大量代谢废物在水中积累,并通过氨化作用转化为氨态氮在水体中富集,对鱼类的抗氧化系统、呼吸及神经系统均存在较大的危害。本研究以6月龄淇河鲫（）幼鱼[体重（15±2）g]为实验对象,研究水体中过量氨氮（50 mg/L、100 mg/L、150 mg/L、200 mg/L、250 mg/L、300 mg/L）对淇河鲫脑、鳃、肝、肾的组织学损害。结果发现,淇河鲫安全养殖的氨氮浓度为16.6 mg/L,超过安全浓度后随着氨氮浓度的升高及氨氮胁迫时间的延长,脑神经纤维结构被破坏的程度增大,神经细胞体出现不同程度坏死;鳃小片也出现不同程度的萎缩聚拢,鳃丝基部充血肿大,鳃丝间隔增大,上皮细胞排列紊乱,泌氯细胞和上皮细胞出现不同程度的空泡化,超显微观察发现,鳃小片出现萎缩,上皮细胞脱落,细胞表面分泌物增多;肝组织中心静脉周围肝细胞排列出现不同程度的紊乱,肝小叶轮廓模糊不清且间距增大,肝细胞排列疏松,细胞核出现不同程度的偏移、溶解,细胞表面粗糙且分泌物增多;肾组织出现淋巴细胞浸润和扩散、肾小囊腔膨大、肾小管腔缩小的现象,甚至出现了肾小球坏死。以上结果表明高浓度氨氮对淇河鲫幼鱼的神经、呼吸及代谢相关器官均存在不同程度的损害。因而,在淇河鲫大规模养殖过程中,应严格监测水体中氨氮浓度,践行绿色、健康养殖模式。     

Molecular cloning of CD4 from ginbuna crucian carp <Emphasis Type="Italic">Carassius auratus langsdorfii</Emphasis>

ABSTRACT:   The clonal triploid ginbuna crucian carp Carassius auratus langsdorfii , a naturally occurring gynogenetic fish, is a useful model for studying T-cell-mediated immunity. CD4, a T-cell receptor (TCR) coreceptor, is a membrane-bound glycoprotein found on helper T-cells, and assists in the binding of major histocompatibility complexes. In the present study, full-length cDNAs encoding the CD4 molecule from the S3n strain of ginbuna crucian carp were cloned and characterized. 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) and 3'-RACE yielded two distinct cDNA clones of CD4 homolog from the ginbuna, and these sequences share 95% identity at the amino acid level. These ginbuna CD4 molecules consisted of a signal peptide, immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSf) like domains, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain similar to other known CD4. A tyrosine protein kinase p56^lck binding motif is conserved in the cytoplasmic tail of ginbuna CD4. Phylogenetic tree analysis indicated that ginbuna CD4 sequences are closely related to CD4L-1 from other fish species. Expression of ginbuna CD4 mRNA was detected in the gill, thymus, head kidney, trunk kidney and peripheral blood leukocytes, indicating that its expression pattern is similar to that of ginbuna TCRβ mRNA. The results suggest that ginbuna CD4 sequences are useful as molecular probes for helper T-cells.
