Chemokines are cytokines that mediate leukocyte traffic between the lymphoid organs, the bloodstream, and the site of tissue damage, which is essential for an efficient immune response.

ABSTRACT Light can be used to deter bycatch from fishing nets, but few studies have aimed to quantify how species view and respond to light. Here, we used visual models to predict how target (plaice Pleuronectes platessa) and bycatch (small‐spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicular and undersized skates, Raja spp) species, captured in mixed demersal ...

One of the most crucial biological indicators in tracking long-term variations in the reproductive cycle is sexual development. Scorpaena porcus (Linnaeus, 1758), commonly known as the black scorpionfish, is a small teleost from the family Scorpaenidae ...

Capelin Size, Condition, and Abundance Through Multiple Heatwaves in Alaska
ABSTRACT Capelin (Mallotus spp.) are pelagic forage fishes that can be especially abundant in sub‐arctic marine ecosystems and are important prey for upper trophic‐level consumers. Abundance and distribution of capelin have been linked to ocean temperature, but the magnitude and directionality of thermal sensitivity can vary regionally.

Calcium-independent contraction in lysed cell models of teleost retinal cones: activation by unregulated myosin light chain kinase or high magnesium and loss of cAMP inhibition. [PDF]
The retinal cones of teleost fish contract at dawn and elongate at dusk. We have previously reported that we can selectively induce detergent-lysed models of cones to undergo either reactivated contraction or reactivated elongation, with rates and ...

Abstract There is a growing interest in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture to extend the time fish are reared in freshwater (FW) recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), producing larger FW salmon that can then be induced to undergo smoltification before transfer into marine net pens for grow‐out and harvest.

Taste perception is crucial for animals to assess food’s nutritional value while avoiding toxic substances. Recent decades have unveiled the presence of taste receptors beyond the oral cavity, expressed in diverse non-gustatory tissues including ...

Analysis of permanent magnets as elasmobranch bycatch reduction devices in hook-and-line and longline trials [PDF]
Previous studies indicate that elasmobranch fishes (sharks, skates and rays) detect the Earth’s geomagnetic field by indirect magnetoreception through electromagnetic induction, using their ampullae of Lorenzini. Applying this concept, we evaluated the

Abstract The tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum, G. Cuvier 1818) thrives both in the ion‐poor waters of the Amazon and in commercial aquaculture. In both, environmental conditions can be harsh due to low ion levels, occasional high salt challenges (in aquaculture), low pH, extreme PO2 levels (hypoxia and hyperoxia), high PCO2 levels (hypercapnia), high ...
