Summary: This study analyzed the impact of Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2) infection on the gut microbiota and metabolite composition of gibel carp. The results showed that CyHV-2 infection significantly altered the gut microbiota and metabolite profiles, leading to an increase in the opportunistic pathogen Aeromonas. Furthermore, modulation of tryptophan metabolism affected the abundance of Aeromonas, the transcription of antiviral cytokines, and the infection level of CyHV-2.

Summary: In this study, the interactions among intestinal microbiota, bile acids, lipid metabolism, and host genotype were investigated using gibel carp as a model. It was found that the composition and structure of gut microbiota differed between different genotypes of gibel carp, and Citrobacter freundii was significantly correlated with bile acid content. Supplementation of C. freundii and cholic acid resulted in lower obesity indices and increased bile acid content. These findings have important implications for potential application of Citrobacter freundii in aquaculture.

Summary: Genistein exerts regulatory effects on glucose and lipid metabolism in common carp, showing decreased blood glucose and total cholesterol levels, as well as increased serum triglycerides, LDL-C, and HDL-C levels. High dose of genistein increases lipid synthesis-related genes, while low and medium doses enhance gluconeogenesis-related genes expression. There is a certain similarity between genistein and estrogen in vitro, indicating a potential estrogen-like role of genistein in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism in fish.

Summary: An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of carbohydrate use in a low-lipid diet on different strains of gibel carp. The results showed that adding high carbohydrate levels to the low-lipid diet improved the feeding rate and growth rate of the carp without causing hyperglycemia. The CASIII strain had a better ability to use dietary carbohydrates for growth, while the Dongting strain showed a stronger response in lipid metabolism.

Summary: The present study investigated the sequential regulation signals of high-carbohydrate diet-induced hepatic lipid deposition in gibel carp. The results showed that high-carbohydrate diet induced hyperlipidemia and hepatic lipid deposition, as well as hyperglycemia in gibel carp. The deposition of hepatic lipid was mainly promoted by SREBP1 in the earlier stage and by ChREBP in the later stage.

Summary: The effects of a low-protein-high-starch diet on the growth performance, glucose and lipid metabolism in Amur sturgeon were investigated. The results showed that the diet did not compromise growth performance, increased feeding rate, promoted the deposition of whole-body protein, and maintained normal plasma glucose levels. The diet also inhibited lipogenesis, accelerated lipolysis, and promoted whole-body protein deposition.

Summary: Aquaculture requires effective antibiotic alternatives to control intestinal inflammation, liver inflammation, and metabolic disorder caused by enteritis. Specific metabolites, such as itaconate and fumarate, have shown immunomodulatory effects and are gaining interest as anti-inflammatory medications. In an 8-week feeding experiment on gibel carp, oral administration of 4-octyl itaconate (OI) and dimethyl fumarate (DMF) was found to improve growth performance and increase abundance of beneficial intestinal microbiota. Both OI and DMF alleviated intestinal and hepatopancreas damage caused by enteritis through various mechanisms. Dietary supplementation with 0.1% OI and DMF might be a promising strategy to prevent enteritis and intestinal inflammation-induced hepatopancreas damage in gibel carp.

Summary: The effects of different dietary protein sources were investigated on the reproductive performance of female yellow catfish. It was found that the use of soybean meal as the main protein source improved the reproductive performance by increasing gonadosomatic index, relative fecundity, total egg production, egg diameter, and hatching rate. Soybean meal also promoted the synthesis of sex steroid hormones and vitellogenin, while reducing cholesterol and cortisol levels.

Summary: This study examined the effects of exercise training (ET) combined with a high-fat diet (HFD) on flesh quality. It was found that HFD increased muscular fat content but reduced hardness, flexibility, and adhesiveness, while ET decreased fat content but increased flesh water holding capacity, hardness, and stickiness. The combination of ET and HFD improved the aroma of flesh by enhancing the content of key flavor compounds. This research provides a new strategy for improving the quality of cultured fish flesh.

Summary: This study assessed the responses of zebrafish and zebrafish liver cell line to different carbohydrate levels. Results showed that a dietary dextrin level of at least 30% significantly increased plasma glucose content and activated glycolysis-related gene expression in zebrafish. High carbohydrate levels also resulted in lipid accumulation, liver damage, abnormal glycolipid metabolism, and increased inflammation-related genes. The study concluded that the maximum dietary carbohydrate level for adult zebrafish should be less than 30%.

Summary: This study investigated the transfer of fatty acids from broodstock diets to eggs and the time needed for the eggs to equilibrate to the diet in Southern flounder. The findings indicate that different diet treatments significantly affect the fatty acid composition of eggs, and it takes 8-16 weeks for the eggs to adapt to changes in the adult diet. These results are important for improving broodstock diets and feeding protocols in stock-enhancement programs.
