Summary: This study explored the bioaccumulation and biochemical status of Jian carp exposed to MPs and TC alone and combined. Results showed that MPs bioaccumulation was not affected by TC, but the presence of MPs changed TC content within 48 hours. Co-exposure to TC and MPs reduced oxidative damage and alleviated overexpression of immune-related genes in muscles compared to MP exposure alone.

Summary: This study found that extracts of Ginkgo biloba leaves (EGbs), especially ethyl acetate extract (EAE), exhibited strong antioxidant activity and protective effects against lipid oxidation. Addition of EAE to fish feeds can effectively inhibit lipid oxidation and improve fish growth performance by enhancing digestive enzyme activity and antioxidant capacity. Moreover, dietary EAE also decreased lipid oxidation in fish meat and inhibited the induction effect of hemoglobin in erythrocytes. These findings suggest that EGb can serve as a potential natural antioxidant for fish and fish feed.

Summary: In this study, metabolomics was used to investigate the impact of thermal stress on the metabolic profile of Qingtian paddy field carp. The results showed that thermal stress altered multiple metabolic pathways, including lipid, amino acid, and carbohydrate metabolism. The findings clarify the molecular regulatory mechanism of PF carp adaptation to thermal stress and provide novel hypotheses for the biological regulation of other fish species under thermal stress.

Summary: Methods of induction of uniparental inheritance have been developed for model organisms as well as for species of commercial interest, with cold-shock androgenesis showing promise in successfully inducing haploid progeny in common carp. Compared to other techniques, cold-shock androgenesis was found to be effective in common carp, providing a new possibility for isogenic line production.

Summary: Fatty acid desaturase 2 (fads2) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of PUFAs and is found in common carp, an important food fish species. This study identified polymorphisms in the coding sequences of fads2a and fads2b, with three cSNPs associated with PUFA contents. The findings suggest that fads2b may be the major gene influencing PUFA contents in common carp, highlighting the potential of these cSNPs as markers for improving PUFA contents in future breeding programs.

Summary: The E93 gene was identified and found to be widely distributed in adult tissues of the swimming crab. The expression levels of PtE93 mRNA in Y-organ and epidermis fluctuated during the molt cycle, suggesting its involvement in juvenile molting. Treatment with 20E induced PtE93 expression, while treatment with MF showed the opposite effect. The study also observed a negative correlation between PtE93 and ecdysteroid biosynthesis genes.

Summary: This study investigated the combined effects of partial dietary replacement of fish oil (FO) by vegetable oil (VO) and reduced ambient salinity on the fatty acid composition of C. labrosus juveniles. The results showed that C. labrosus is able to biosynthesise EPA and DHA from ALA, and low salinity conditions can upregulate the gene expression related to fatty acid metabolism. Fish reared on FO20 diet showed the highest amount of n-3 LC-PUFA in muscle.

Summary: Metal pollution has significant effects on aquatic environments, and metallothioneins play important roles in maintaining metal homeostasis and detoxification. This study identified two metallothionein-coding transcripts in Gammarus fossarum and investigated their organ-specific expression patterns. The results showed that mt1 was more strongly induced after cadmium exposure, and mt1 was more highly induced in the caeca compared to the gills for any metal exposure. Additionally, mt2 was more inducible in the gills than in the caeca for cadmium and zinc exposure at the individual level.

Summary: This study investigates the mechanisms underlying the activation of lipophagy in yellow catfish under high glucose-induced lipid deposition. The SIRT1-NRF2-TFEB pathway is proposed to mediate lipophagy activation, and lipophagy helps alleviate high glucose-induced lipid deposition. This study provides insights into the control of lipophagy in response to metabolic stress.
