Identification of an osteocalcin isoform in fish with a large acidic prodomain [PDF]

, 2014
Osteocalcin is a small, secreted bone protein whose gene consists of four exons. In the course of analyzing the structure of fish osteocalcin genes, we recently found that the spotted green pufferfish has two possible exon 2 structures, one of 15 bp and ...

Comparative Evaluation of Feeding Tiger Puffer (Takifugu rubripes) With Trash Fish and Formulated Feeds on Growth Performance, Flesh Quality, Antioxidant, and Immunity Capacity

Aquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study evaluated the effects of replacing trash fish (TF) with formulated feeds in tiger puffer (Takifugu rubripes) on the growth performance, liver and serum biochemical indices, flesh quality, and metabolomics. Fish (39.6 ± 0.2 g) were fed TF, commercial feed (CF), and self‐formulated feed (SF) for 8 weeks. Results indicated that CF and SF groups

Immune responses to alum in the Japanese pufferfish (Takifugu rubripes)

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2016
To elucidate the basis of innate immune responses against insoluble compounds (such as silica and alum) through the inflammasome activation pathway in fish, biological assays and expression analysis of immune-related genes were conducted in the Japanese pufferfish (Takifugu rubripes) head kidney (HK) cells.

Comparative Morphology of Digestive Tract Among 11 Different Marine Fish Species

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Limited information is available about the digestive tract morphology and function in some marine fish species. Using anatomical methods, this study compared the morphological characteristics of the digestive tract among 11 marine fish species of different taxonomic status, feeding habits and ecological niches.

Elemental Requirements of Rearing Seawater for Unfed Larvae of the Japanese Eel (Anguilla japonica Temminck and Schlegel)

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study assessed the influence of salinity and element composition of rearing seawater on unfed Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) larvae at 5 days after hatching (DAH). First, no significant differences in larval survival were found between natural and artificial seawater across various container materials and sizes (50mL–20 L).

Cloning and characterization of MID1 interacting protein 1 (mid1ip1) from tiger puffer (Takifugu rubripes), and its gene expression in response to dietary bile acid and lipid levels

Aquaculture Reports, 2020
Mid1ip1 plays important roles in lipogenesis and microtubule stabilization, but little relevant information has been reported in fish. In the present study, mid1ip1 cDNA of tiger puffer was cloned and characterized, and its expression in response to ...

Biased amino acid composition in warm-blooded animals [PDF]

, 2009
Among eubacteria and archeabacteria, amino acid composition is correlated with habitat temperatures. In particular, species living at high temperatures have proteins enriched in the amino acids E-R-K and depleted in D-N-Q-T-S-H-A. Here, we show that this
