Functional dissimilarity of melanomacrophage centres in the liver and spleen from females of the teleost fish Prochilodus argenteus

Cell and Tissue Research, 2011
Melanomacrophage centres (MMCs) are formed by macrophage aggregates containing pigments such as hemosiderin, melanin and lipofuscin. MMCs are found in animals such as reptiles, amphibians and, mainly, fishes, in organs such as the kidney, spleen, thymus and liver.

Description and comparison of two economically important fish species mitogenomes: Prochilodus argenteus and Prochilodus costatus (Characiformes, Prochilodontidae)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2015
Prochilodus spp. are important Brazilian freshwater migratory fishes with substantial economic and ecological importance. Prochilodus argenteus and Prochilodus costatus are morphologically similar and a molecular species delimitation is impaired due to high degree of sequence identity among the available genetic markers.

Development of the splanchnocranium in Prochilodus argenteus (Teleostei: Characiformes) with a discussion of the basal developmental patterns in the Otophysi

Zoology, 2015
Development of the mandibular, hyoid and gill arches, which constitute the splanchnocranium, are described for Prochilodus argenteus, order Characiformes, one of the basal lineages of the Otophysi. Development was examined from just hatched larvae through juveniles using whole specimens cleared and counterstained for cartilage and bone as well as ...

Composition and antagonistic activity of the indigenous intestinal microbiota of Prochilodus argenteus Agassiz

Journal of Fish Biology, 2005
The composition and antibacterial properties of indigenous intestinal microbiota from Prochilodus argenteus were studied during reproductive (alimentary restriction) and non‐reproductive (normal feeding) periods. Dilutions of intestinal contents from 21 specimens of P.

Relationship among follicular apoptosis, integrin β1 and collagen type IV during early ovarian regression in the teleost Prochilodus argenteus after induced spawning

Cell and Tissue Research, 2008
Early ovarian regression was analyzed in the neotropical freshwater teleost, curimatã-pacu (Prochilodus argenteus), in order to evaluate follicular apoptosis, basement membrane morphology, and integrin beta1 and collagen type IV immunostainning in postovulatory follicles. Mature females were induced to spawn by using carp pituitary extract for study of

Population Substructuring in a Migratory Freshwater Fish Prochilodus argenteus (Characiformes, Prochilodontidae) from the São Francisco River

Genetica, 2006
The construction of hydroelectric dams, pollution of rivers and other environmental changes are responsible for the disappearance of many natural fish stocks. The purpose of this work was to analyze the fish Prochilodus argenteus inhabiting the region of the Três Marias dam in the São Francisco River (Brazil) collected in two sites having distinct ...

Thirteen polymorphic microsatellite loci in the Neotropical fish Prochilodus argenteus (Characiformes, Prochilodontidae)

Molecular Ecology Notes, 2006
Abstract Prochilodus species inhabit the main river systems of South America and usually present commercial value to inland fishing. In the present study, we describe the isolation and characterization of 13 novel microsatellite loci in Prochilodus argenteus.

Sex-response differences of immunological and histopathological biomarkers in gill of Prochilodus argenteus from a polluted river in southeast Brazil

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2014
The fish gill is in direct and standing contact with the immediate external environment and, therefore, is highly vulnerable to aquatic pollutants. In this study, Prochilodus argenteus were caught at two different points in São Francisco river. The first point is located near Três Marias dam, while the second is placed downstream the Abaeté river ...

Microsatellite assessment of the genetic diversity in indigenous populations of curimba (Prochilodus argenteus) in the São Francisco river (Brazil)

Conservation Genetics, 2017
The freshwater fish curimba (Prochilodus argenteus) is an endemic species of the Sao Francisco River basin, with great aquaculture potential. The construction of several hydroelectric power dams along the river, and the pulsed releases of water from these dams altered and degraded the native fish habitats, which led to the development of a hatchery ...
