“…Lysozyme, a non-specific innate immune molecule present in the plasma and body fluids of fish, plays a considerable role in host protection against microbial invasion (Li et al, 2021). While not significant (P = 0.075), higher plasma lysozyme activity in fish fed LO-16 diet are consistent with the conclusions of Chee et al (2020), in which lysozyme activity increased with increasing dietary ARA levels. The increased lysozyme activity with increasing ARA levels could be a result of increased production of leukotriene B 4 , a stimulator of release of lysosomal enzymes and superoxide in neutrophils, derived from ARA (Samuelsson, 1983;Chee et al, 2020).…”

“…Some studies have shown that ARA plays crucial roles in marine fish growth and survival (Xu et al, 2010;Yuan et al, 2015;Rombenso et al, 2016;Torrecillas et al, 2018), reproduction (Bromage et al, 2001;Kowalska and Kowalski, 2014) and stress and disease resistance (Koven et al, 2001(Koven et al, , 2003Martins et al, 2013), hence playing a vital role across the entirety of the fish life cycle. On the contrary, other studies have demonstrated that the inclusion of dietary ARA did not improve fish growth performance (Koven et al, 2001;Asil et al, 2017;Chee et al, 2020). These different results may be due to distinct experimental conditions, fish size, and duration of the feeding trial.…”

“…Although not observed in the current study, reports with larval fish suggest that ARA may be responsible for enhanced fish survival (Bessonart et al, 1999;Atalah et al, 2011;Yuan et al, 2015). Despite the fact that ARA may be a critical omega-6 fatty acid for some fish species to achieve proper growth, development, and survival, other studies remind us that generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at high levels produced by activating NADPH-oxidase can cause toxicity through oxidative stress, as a potential result of an imbalance between antioxidant defenses and ROS generation when excessive levels of ARA are provided in diet (Cury-Boaventura and Curi, 2005;Schrader and Fahimi, 2006;Sakin et al, 2011;Chee et al, 2020). Although performance was unaffected, observations of elevated levels of plasma phagocytic oxidative radical production (NBT activity), a measurement of oxidative radical production, in the present study suggest a need for more research on ARA as a functional fatty acid in fish feeds across life stages.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Latitude™ oil (transgenic canola) fed to rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, for 52 weeks on growth performance, non-specific immune responses, histology, and filet omega-3 fatty acid content. Latitude™ oil (LO) has high lipid digestibility (93%), and contains omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5n-3), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA, C22:5n-3), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6n-3). Three isonitrogenous (49%), isolipidic (20%) and isocaloric (24.2 MJ kg−1) diets differing by lipid source (0, 8, or 16% LO, replacing fish oil and poultry fat) were fed over an entire production cycle beginning with 19 g juvenile fish. At the end of the 52-week feeding trial, final body weight, weight gain and specific growth rate of fish fed 8% LO (LO-8) and 16% LO (LO-16) diets were significantly higher than those fed the 0% LO (LO-0) diet (P < 0.05). Phagocytic respiratory burst in fish fed the LO-16 diet was significantly higher than those fish fed the other 2 diets (P < 0.05). There were no differences in superoxide dismutase, catalase and lysozyme. Histological examination of the distal intestine indicated reduced inflammation in fish fed the LO-8 diet but not the LO-0 and LO-16 diets. Filet DHA content of fish fed the LO-8 and LO-16 diets were similar to those of fish fed the LO-0 diet. As these diets had lower DHA content, this suggests dietary EPA and DPA from LO was converted to DHA and deposited in the filet. This is supported by increased expression of genes involved in fatty acid elongation, desaturation and beta oxidation in both liver and muscle of fish fed LO (P < 0.05). Total EPA+DHA content of the edible filet ranged between 1,079–1,241 mg 100 g−1 across treatments, each providing the recommended daily intake for human consumption (500–1,000 mg day−1). Overall, this study demonstrated that LO fed over an entire production period is a highly digestible lipid source suitable and sustainable for meeting the fatty acid requirements of rainbow trout, as well as consumer expectations for filet omega-3 fatty acid content.

Sustainability in aquaculture is a necessity of the future, not only as the most promising means of supplying the protein that the world will require to feed its growing population but to offer needed conservation of the world’s ocean resources. The use of wild fish inputs in farm-raised fish outputs has been a primary concern of sustainability in aquaculture production. Herbivorous fish are more efficient converters of protein into fish flesh. Species of the genus Medialuna fish have been reported as a fast-growing, short-lived species. The native fish Acha (Medialuna ancietae Chirichigno 1987) in the Northern part of Chile is an over-exploited fish that has been associated with aquatic vegetation as a food source. We studied the feeding habits and nutritional composition of M. ancietae. For this, we developed a reference collection of marine macroalga (epidermis and nutritional composition) observed in the diet of individuals of this species for the study of digestive material. More than 90% of the components found were marine macroalgae, indicating that M. ancietae is an herbivorous fish. Compared to non-herbivorous fish our results showed that most of the nutrients present in the Medialuna diet are found at much lower levels including n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (49.7%) and protein (13–60%). M. ancietae meat provides essential components of human nutrition with a significant protein content (18.99 ± 0.26%) and 268 ± 5.9 mg/100 g of the essential n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. Most fed aquaculture non-herbivorous species rely on wild-captured fish for these essential nutrients, while M. ancietae can obtain and concentrate them from potentially cultivable macroalgae. M. ancietae has potential for sustainable aquaculture production as a contribution to nutrition security and the re-stocking of wild populations.

“…A common aspect in all the evaluated tissues, was the presence of significantly higher levels of ARA in fish fed TCO. ARA is an essential fatty acid for fish and inadequate levels can impact on fish growth and performance ( Norambuena et al, 2015 ; Torrecillas et al, 2018 ; Chee et al, 2020 ). Additionally, ARA plays a key role in initiating inflammatory responses both in humans ( Tallima and El Ridi, 2018 ) and fish ( Li et al, 2012 ; Dantagnan et al, 2017 ), mediated through their potent bioactive eicosanoid products ( Calder, 2009 ).…”
