Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Dietary modulation of antimicrobial peptides (HAMP and LEAP2) in Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) fed a phytobiotic functional diet: Integrated genomic characterisation and tissue‐specific expression

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are key components of the innate immune system in fish, providing rapid protection against microbial pathogens. Among these, the liver‐expressed antimicrobial peptides (LEAPs), comprising LEAP‐1 (hepcidin; HAMP) and LEAP‐2, play central roles in host defence and iron regulation.
