“…The present study reports that the gill catalase activity was significantly higher in group exposed to higher concentration of dietary zinc. However, our findings are not in agreement with the results obtained by Kong et al (2012) who reported that CAT activity was inhibited in the developing embryos of Carassius auratus under mercury exposure. Therefore the complicated action involved in CAT activity makes it difficult to completely elucidate, which requires further studies on the response mechanism of CAT in the early developmental stage of fish under heavy metal exposure in order to provide additional evidence.…”

The golden mahseer (Tor putitora) is an important and high valued sport and food fish of national and international importance. Therefore for promotion of golden mahseer, proper mineral supplementation in early developmental stages is very important. The present study evaluated the effects of dietary zinc on growth, survivaland physiological response of Tor putitora fry. One thousand eight hundred fry (avg.wt 54.35Â±3.09 mg) were randomly distributed into 6 treatment groups with triplicates each. Six iso-nitrogenous (40Â±0.02% to 41.44Â±0.01% crude protein) semi-purified diets were prepared with graded levels of dietary zinc. Zinc sulphate was added as the dietary zinc source to the basal diet. The results indicated that specific growth rate (SGR) was of value 2.52 Â±0.23 gm of T. putitora fry which increased with dietary zinc levels up to a concentration of 40 mg Zn Kg-1 in diet. The zinc dependent metabolic enzymes and antioxidant enzymes was also observed to be highest in groups supplemented with 40 mg zinc/kg feed. The overall results of the present study suggest the efficacy of dietary zinc on growth, survival and physiological response of golden mahseer fry in order to garner the possibility of establishing the species to commercial aquaculture.

“…While CAT converts hydrogen peroxide into water (El-Demerdash, 2011), with reducing the toxic effects of ROS (David et al, 2008;Mansour and Mossa, 2009). The decrease in CAT activity may yield H 2 O 2 from physiological metabolism, and H 2 O 2 may not be removed promptly, which can potentially damage the balance between production and elimination of ROS (Kong et al, 2012). Surplus H 2 O 2 can induce oxidative stress in the studied tissues, where LPO could be promoted, thereby leading to MDA accumulation (Calviello et al, 2006).…”

“…After phagocytic processes, the first line of the body’s internal defense, ACP, AKP and LZM could assist in the complete degradation of exogenous substances ( Canicattí, 1990 ; Janeway & Medzhitov, 2002 ). Moreover, phosphatase plays an important role in dephosphorylation reactions, particularly in performing signal transduction, physiological metabolism, and environmental adaptation ( Kong et al, 2012 ). Thus, in the present study, the enzyme activities and gene expressions of ACP, AKP, and LZM, and a well-known immune-related gene, HSP70 were measured in sea cucumbers under different DO levels.…”

Hypoxia is one of the most frequently occurring stressors confronted by industrial cultures of sea cucumber and can cause large economic losses and resource degradation. However, its responsive mechanisms are still lacking. In this paper, the physiological responses of Apostichopus japonicus to oxygen deficiency was illustrated, including induced oxidative response and immune defense and changed digestive enzymes activities. Significantly increased activities of alpha-amylase (AMS), acid phosphatase (ACP), lactate dehydrogenase, catalase, peroxidase, succinate dehydrogenase and higher content of malondialdehyde, and decreased activities of lipase and trypsin (TRY) were observed after hypoxia exposure (dissolved oxygen [DO] 2 mg/L). Expressions of key genes showed that AMS, peptidase, ACP, alkaline phosphatase, lysozyme, heat shock protein 70 and glutathione peroxidase were increased and TRY was decreased under hypoxia. With the decline of the DO level, the decreased tendency of oxygen consumption rates was different in varied weight groups. Moreover, respiratory trees were observed degraded under long-term hypoxia stress, thus leading a negative effect of respiration. These results could help to develop a better understanding of the responsive mechanism of sea cucumber under hypoxia stress and provide a theoretical basis for the prevention of hypoxia risk.
