Structural Characterization and Glycosaminoglycan Impurities Analysis of Chondroitin Sulfate from Chinese Sturgeon. [PDF]

Polymers (Basel), 2022
Chinese sturgeon was an endangered cartilaginous fish. The success of artificial breeding has promoted it to a food fish and it is now beginning to provide a new source of cartilage for the extraction of chondroitin sulfate (CS). However, the structural characteristics of sturgeon CS from different tissues remain to be determined in more detail.

Transcriptome Sequencing Reveals the Antiviral Innate Immunity by IFN-γ in Chinese Sturgeon Macrophages [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
To further study the biological function of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) in the Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis), we conducted a transcriptome analysis of primary macrophages induced by IFN-γ using Illumina sequencing technology.

Whole-genome Sequencing Reveals Autooctoploidy in Chinese Sturgeon and Its Evolutionary Trajectories. [PDF]

Genomics Proteomics Bioinformatics, 2023
Abstract The order Acipenseriformes, which includes sturgeons and paddlefishes, represents “living fossils” with complex genomes that are good models for understanding whole-genome duplication (WGD) and ploidy evolution in fishes. Here, we sequenced and assembled the first high-quality chromosome-level genome for the complex octoploid

Effects of feeding frequency on juvenile Chinese sturgeon Acipenser sinensis. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2020
AbstractIn this study, the effects of different feeding frequencies on the growth and the expression of genes in the GH/IGF axis were assessed in juvenile Chinese sturgeon. The newly hatched Chinese sturgeons were bred for 38 days at three different feeding frequencies groups (feeding frequency of two times a day, TWD; three times a day, THD; and four ...
