“…Olivotto et al. () obtained a length of 6.0 mm for larvae of this species after 11 days post‐hatching; after 13 days of hormonal treatment in the present experiment, larvae in the control treatment had an average length of 7.95 mm. In the treatment with the lowest T3 dose, larvae had a total length of 8.69 ± 0.25 mm.…”

“…IGF-I in fish has been shown not only to stimulate DNA synthesis, cartilage sulphation and protein synthesis, but also to enhance salt-water adaptability, stimulate spermatogenesis and induce final oocyte maturation [33][34][35]. Furthermore, administration of recombinant IGF-I to salmon has resulted in growth stimulation [36] and, more recently, it has been demonstrated that circulating levels of IGF-I are positively correlated with growth rate [37][38][39][40][41][42][43] and could be used as an important growth index in fish. Moreover, it has also recently been shown that muscle growth is regulated by the interplay of positive and negative signals: among the negative signals, MYO has been identified.…”

The present study explored alternative strategies to improve the health status and growth metabolism in cultured juvenile fish. In this context the effects of alginic acid administration on the welfare of rainbow trout juveniles were investigated. Both the hepatic gene expression of heat shock protein 70 and the cortisol plasma levels were evaluated in order to estimate the possible beneficial role of alginic acid in improving animal well-being. At the same time the body weight was measured and was correlated with the hepatic expression of insulin-like growth factor I, myostatin, and two isoforms of the thyroid receptor. Finally, improvement of the immune system was investigated by monitoring the expression of innate immune-related genes, such as interleukin1β, interleukin8 and toll-like receptor3, in the spleen. The data obtained demonstrated an improvement in the welfare of rainbow trout juveniles, revealed by growth and innate immune response enhancement by alginic acid administration. These results may be of great importance for the further development of more sustainable aquaculture practices, and can be considered as a biotechnological application to produce a safer product for human health.

Considering the well‐known problems arising from the use of rotifers and Artemia as live prey in larval rearing in terms of fatty acid deficiencies, the aim of this study was to evaluate a partial or complete replacement of traditional live prey with preserved copepods during the larviculture of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata). Sea bream larvae were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups in triplicates: group A larvae (control) fed rotifers followed by Artemia nauplii; group B fed a combined diet (50%) of rotifers–Artemia and preserved copepods; group C fed rotifers followed by preserved copepods; and group D fed preserved copepods solely. Survival and biometric data were analysed together with major molecular biomarkers involved in growth, lipid metabolism and appetite. Moreover, fatty acid content of prey and larvae was also analysed. At the end of 40 days treatment, a stress test, on the remaining larvae, was performed to evaluate the effects of different diets on stress response. Data obtained evidenced a positive effect of cofeeding preserved copepods during sea bream larviculture. Higher survival and growth were achieved in group B (fed combined diet) larvae respect to control. In addition, preserved copepods cofeeding was able to positively modulate genes involved in fish growth, lipid metabolism, stress response and appetite regulation.
