Assessment of Oxidative Stress, Vitellogenin, and Human Health Risks Derived From Nile Tilapia Exposed to Metals and Metalloids in Southeastern Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban coastal lagoons are highly vulnerable ecosystems increasingly affected by metal contamination, as well as multiple anthropogenic stressors. This study evaluated ecotoxicological and human health risks associated with chronic metal exposure in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) from an anthropogenically impacted lagoon in southeastern ...

Effects of predator odour on antipredator responses of Nile tilapia [PDF]

Physiology & Behavior, 2016
Several fish species exhibit antipredator responses when exposed to chemicals which indicate risk of predation. One such substance is the scent of a predator (a kairomone) that may induce defensive responses in a potential prey. In the present study, we show that chemical cues (odour) from predator fish induce antipredator and stress responses in Nile ...

Growth and Feed Utilization of Juvenile Nile Tilapia Fed with Boiled Moringa oleifera Meal Diets : A Preliminary Report [PDF]

, 2019
Juveniles of Nile tilapia were stocked (4.47 ± 0.26 g, eight fish per tank) and fed with test diets containing different inclusion levels of boiled Moringa oleifera leaf meal powder (0–30%: MLM 0, MLM 10, MLM 20, MLM 30), at 6% body weight for a total ...

Effect of Salinity Stress on Gut–Brain–Gonad Axis in the Red‐Eared Slider (Trachemys scripta elegans)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The increase in salinity leads to changes in the gut microbiota and metabolites of Trachemys scripta elegans, affecting the synthesis and secretion of neurotransmitters or precursors, which can inhibit the secretion of reproductive hormones and affect the self‐renewal and differentiation process of spermatogonial stem cells.

Non-Additive and Asymmetric Allelic Expression of p38 mapk in Hybrid Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus ♀ × O. aureus ♂)

Animals
Hybridization is a widely used breeding technique in fish species that enhances desirable traits in cultured species through heterosis. However, the mechanism by which hybrids alter gene expression to form heterosis remains unclear.

Genome Expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in Basal Species or Liver Expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in Advanced Species, Two Different Strategies to Ensure Sufficient ZP Synthesis in Teleosts

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...
