“…In addition, it seems very likely that the TJ also acts as a “fence” in teleosts, although there do not appear to be any studies that specifically address this. The TJ complex was first reported in a teleost fish by Öberg, 7 although around the same time that the TJ was first described in detail by Farquhar and Palade, 4 exquisite images of “leaky” TJs in the gill epithelium of a seawater (SW) acclimated teleost fish ( Fundulus similis ) were described by Philpott and Copeland 8 . However, these “leaky” TJs were not recognized as such, possibly because their morphology did not suggest occlusion of the intercellular space.…”

Teleost fishes are a large and diverse animal group that represent close to 50% of all described vertebrate species. This review consolidates what is known about the claudin (Cldn) family of tight junction (TJ) proteins in teleosts. Cldns are transmembrane proteins of the vertebrate epithelial/endothelial TJ complex that largely determine TJ permeability. Cldns achieve this by expressing barrier or pore forming properties and by exhibiting distinct tissue distribution patterns. So far, ~63 genes encoding for Cldn TJ proteins have been reported in 16 teleost species. Collectively, cldns (or Cldns) are found in a broad array of teleost fish tissues, but select genes exhibit restricted expression patterns. Evidence to date strongly supports the view that Cldns play a vital role in the embryonic development of teleost fishes and in the physiology of tissues and organ systems studied thus far.

The specialized structure of the gills favours entrance of rotenone and other toxic compounds into the blood stream, where upon the toxicants are transported to vital organs for inhibition of respiration (Oberg 1967). …”

Fish poisoning using Tephrosia candida, which is an exotic plant to Sri Lanka is taking place in streams in the boundary of the Sinharaja forest, a tropical forest range, designated as a world heritage site by UNESCO in 1988. T. candida is a source of flavonoids and rotenoids including rotenone, tephrosin, and deguelin. Fishermen add large amounts of grounded plant matter to kill almost all the fishes in the stream within a short period of time. This method of unregulated fishing may have a long term negative effect on fish diversity and abundance in the area. A 96 h static renewal toxicity bioassay was carried out in the laboratory to determine the median lethal concentration (LC50) of aqueous extract of T. candida leaves on Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings. Experimental fish were exposed to test water in 20 L glass aquaria with concentrations of plant extract of 5, 7.5, 10, 15 and 20 mg L -1 . All five treatments aquaria and the control aquaria without plant extract were triplicated. Fish exposed to plant extract showed symptoms of toxicity including, initial inactivation, agitated swimming, turning movement, air gulping, increased opercular movement followed by erratic swimming, loss of reflex, slow opercular movement, setting at the bottom motionless and knockdown before death. The gills of the dead fishes were damaged, swollen and external bleeding were observed. Lower concentrations of the extracts had sub lethal effects which manifested as zigzag movement, air gulping, increased opercular movement and some fish gathered near the air stones. The LC50 values at various exposure periods were 10.83 mg L -1 for 24 h; 8.61 mg L -1 for 48 h; 7.26 mg L -1 for 72 h and 6.43 mg L -1 for 96 h. It could be concluded that the application of T. candida extract causes lethal toxic effects on fish even at very low concentrations.

“…At the cellular level, rotenone is known to block the reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase pathway of the mitochondria1 respiratory chain (HORGAN et al 1968;OBERG 1961OBERG , 1967. PERRY and CONWAY (1977) have shown that rotenone inhibits oxygen utilization of Lepomis cyanellus cell mitochondria, resulting in what can be described as a condition of induced tissue hypoxia.…”

Ventilatory rate reponses of Diplodus bermudensis, Holocentrus rufus, Haemulon flavoleneatum and Haemulon sciurus to acute rotenone exposure were recorded by monitoring impedance changes accoinpanying opercular movements in individual specimens. Results identified two tolerance groups, each of which dis layed similar ventilator response patterns but at different concentrations of rotenone. Exposure revels required to etablisi o ercular paralysis were found to be considerably less than that the four marine species examined.reported for 24 hour LC50 of many fres 1 water organisms, indicating a high degree of toxic sensitivity for Zusammenfassung Ventilationsreaktion von vier marinen Teleosteirn bei akuter Rotenone-Exposition Die Ventilationshaufigkeit von Di lodus bermudensis, Holocentrus rufus, Haemulon flavoleneatumder Kiemendeckelbewegungen registriert.
