“…Plasma total protein, albumin and globulin contents were measured by the Biuret and BCG dye binding method and the bromocresol green binding method (Chen et al, ; Cuesta, Meseguer, & Esteban, ). Plasma acid phosphatase (ACP) activity was measured according to a disodium phenyl phosphate method.…”

This study evaluated effects of fishmeal replacement by cottonseed meal protein hydrolysate (CPH) on growth, antioxidant and immunity of Megalobrama amblycephala and its resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila. Fish (average weight: 38.66 ± 0.08 g) were divided into five groups and fed with five isonitrogenous (320 g/kg crude protein), isolipidic (70 g/kg crude fat) and isocaloric (17.8 MJ/kg gross energy) diets replacing fishmeal with 0%, 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% CPH, respectively. The control diet contained 60 g/kg fishmeal. Final weight and weight gain of fish fed 5% and 7% CPH were significantly lower than that of fish fed control diet (p < 0.05). 3% CPH significantly increased total protein, globulin, acid phosphatase, C3 and C4 contents of plasma and total‐superoxide dismutase and catalase activities of liver (p < 0.05), as well as upregulated the antimicrobial peptides 1 and 2 (Leap‐1 and Leap‐2) expression levels in liver and spleen (p < 0.05). After challenge, the lowest mortality was observed in fish fed 3% CPH, and it was significantly lower than that in fish fed the 7% CPH (p < 0.05). In conclusion, dietary fishmeal replacement by 3% CPH could increase antioxidative capacity, as well as enhance immunity of fish.

“…In the recent years, there has been a tendency of utilizing lipid‐rich diets in intensive aquaculture, because higher growth rates can be achieved by increasing dietary lipids above their minimum levels, probably as a result of protein sparing and improved feeding efficiency (Boujard et al, ; Lu et al, ). However, there will also be an upper limit that, if exceeded, will result in unwanted deposition of lipids in the tissues due to an imbalance of nutrient and energy supplies, and may negatively affect survival, growth, disease resistance, stress response and lipid metabolism (Chen et al, ; Company, Calduch‐Giner, Kaushik, & Perez‐Sanchez, ; Gaylord & Gatlin, ; Li et al, ; Lu et al, ; Regost et al, ; Wang et al, ).…”

Effects of dietary lipid levels on growth, fatty acid composition, antioxidant status and lipid metabolism in juvenileOnychostoma macrolepis

Five diets of different lipid levels, 3%, 6%, 9%, 12% and 15% (L3, L6, L9, L12 and L15), were designed and fed to juvenile Onychostoma macrolepis for 8 weeks. The juvenile O. macrolepis grew better at L9 than at L3, L6 and L15 (p < .05). The viscera and hepatopancreas indexes increased as the dietary lipid levels increased. There appeared lower serum TG and HDL levels at lipid levels of 3.01%–9.01% (p < .05). Hepatic histology showed that the fish fed on L15 diet had more hepatic lipid droplets than those fed on the other diets. Fish fed on L9 diet showed increases in superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities but decreases in malondialdehyde content in hepatopancreas (p < .05). The principle component analysis of fatty acid showed that n‐3 LC‐PUFA was mostly enriched in the fillet. There were lower transcript levels of FAS, ACC1 and SREBP1 found in the hepatopancreas of fish with increased dietary lipid levels, whereas CPT‐1, PPARα and ATGL expressions were elevated (p < .05). These results suggested that diets with a proper dietary lipid level of 9.01%–11.95% (optimum 9.68% was based on the specific growth rate) could improve the growth performance and health status of juvenile O. macrolepis.

“…For example, common carp ( Cyprinus carpio ) fed high‐fat diets (contains 90 g/kg lipid) exhibited reduced growth performance and unregulated LPL expression (Fan et al., ). Also, high‐fat intake (fat level 100 g/kg or 150 g/kg) leads to excessive fat deposition in the liver of blunt snout bream ( Megalobrama amblycephala ) coupled with a decreased growth performance (Chen et al., ; Lu et al., ). Considering this, it is of great significance to investigate the efficient approaches to improve the poor growth performance and lipid disorders of fish fed high‐fat diets.…”

We aimed to investigate the effect of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) on the growth performances and lipid metabolism of common carp fed high‐fat diets. 192 fish were randomly distributed into 24 tanks into six groups (four replicates) and were fed with control diet, high‐fat diet (HFD) and HFD supplemented with 5, 10, 20 and 30 g/kgXOS respectively for 8 weeks. Fish fed HFD supplemented with 10 g/kg XOS obtained higher final body weight, weight gain, specific growth rate and protein efficiency ratio compared to those fed control diet and HFD, while feed conversion ratio showed the opposite trend. Fish fed HFD obtained higher hepatosomatic index, abdominal fat, energy intake compared to other groups, whereas the opposite was true for nitrogen retention. High plasma levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, low‐density lipoprotein and low high‐density lipoprotein were observed in fish fed HFD; opposite was true for fish fed HFD supplemented with 10–20 g/kg XOS. The transcription of lipoprotein lipase was up‐regulated, whereas that of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I, peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors alpha, acyl‐CoA oxidase and CD36 were down‐regulated in fish fed HFD. Opposite trend was observed in fish fed HFD supplemented with 10–20 g/kg XOS as well as the control group. In conclusion, XOS inclusion can benefit the growth performance and lipid metabolism of common carp fed HFD.
