“…According to the China Fisheries Statistics Yearbook 2020, the production of Chinese loach in 2019 was 356,900 tons. As a typical air-breathing fish (Zhang et al, 2016), large-scale loach has a variety of effective strategies for ammonia detoxification (Zhang et al, 2019). Ammonia, as an environmental stressor, induces a strong stress response in large-scale loach (Ding et al, 2019).…”

“…According to China fishery statistical yearbook, the quantity of Chinese loach in 2016 was 400,209 tons (including M. anguillicaudatus ). It can breathe air directly using the post-intestine as the accessory respiratory organ (Zhang et al, 2016). During periodical drought, P. dabryanus could survive for a few months via air breathing in the wet mud.…”

The Paramisgurnus dabryanus was exposed to air to assess the changes in plasma, liver and muscle free amino acid (FAA) contents. The FAA concentrations in plasma, liver and muscle of P. dabryanus were significantly affected by aerial exposure (P < 0.05). After 12 h of aerial exposure, the plasma glutamate contents increased significantly (P < 0.05) and reached peak value at 24 h of air exposure. With increasing air exposure time, the plasma alanine contents increased significantly and more dramatically than the control values (P < 0.05). From 24 to 48 h of aerial exposure, the liver free glutamate contents increased significantly and reached the peak value at 48 h of air exposure (P < 0.05). The liver free alanine contents in air exposure group were markedly higher than these values in the control group (P < 0.05). After 72 h of air exposure, the muscle free glutamate contents increased markedly (P < 0.05) and were significantly higher than the control values (P < 0.05). The muscle free alanine contents remained at constant values during the first 12 h of aerial exposure (P > 0.05), thereafter, these concentrations increased significantly until the end of experiment (P < 0.05). Our results showed that glutamate and NH4+ could be used to synthesize glutamine via glutamine synthetase to convert internal ammonia into non-toxic glutamine in P. dabryanus during air exposure. Furthermore, the P. dabryanus could catabolize several certain amino acids, leading alanine form to reduce endogenous ammonia production. The decrease in tissue free glutamate, arginine and proline in P. dabryanus indicated that these certain amino acids should be the starting substrate to be converted to alanine and energy.

“…It is very similar to Misgurnus anguillicaudatus, both in appearance and ecology. It is typically an air breathing species, and, using its posterior intestine as an accessory respiratory organ, P. dabryanus can survive in wet mud for extended drought periods (Zhang et al, 2016;Zhang, Zhang, Wang, Gu, & Fan, 2017). Much of the literature on the molecular biology and physiological stress responses of P. dabryanus is based on experiments conducted in artificial culture conditions (Hao, Ling, & Hong, 2014;Li, Ling, Ge, Ye, & Han, 2015;Li., He, Wang, Chen, & Chang, 2017).…”

To investigate waterless stress during transport from aquacultures to sale points on the physiological and energy-metabolism properties of Paramisgurnus dabryanus, to improve for improving traditional preservation methods, the levels of glucose, cortisol, triglyceride, and cholesterol in serum and the activities of hexokinase (HK), pyruvate kinase (PK), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) in muscle were determined. Chinese loaches were subjected to water, lesswater, and no-water conditions for 8h. Less-water and no-water stress significantly increased cortisol concentration in serum, while triglycerides and total cholesterol levels slightly decreased. In the initial stages of stress, glucose dropped dramatically and then recovered gradually, eventually exceeding that in the control group. The activities of HK, PK, and LDH increased and then decreased. While HK and PK activities were significantly higher at the end than at the beginning of the stress, LDH activity returned to its pre-stress level. Under less-water and no-water stresses, SDH activity first decreased and then increased. Overall, there were no significant differences between less-water and no-water groups in the measured parameters, except SDH, at the end of the experiment, and variations in all parameters were similar. Waterless preservation conditions resulted in acute stress, acute hyperglycemia, and energetic compensation.
