This book was released on 2012 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The protein hormone leptin has emerged as a major contributor in the regulation of energy balance. However, most of our knowledge of leptin stems from mammalian studies that have focused primarily leptin's role in human pathologies (e.g. obesity). Little is known about how this hormone evolved and how it functions in more basal vertebrates. Recent efforts have identified the gene for leptin in many non-mammalian taxa including several fish species. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) represents one such species and is an excellent system to study leptin because their otherwise well-studied physiology provides a plethora of context to interpret the effects of leptin. In particular, leptin has potent effects on lipolysis (i.e. triglyceride hydrolysis) and lipid oxidation ([beta]-oxidation of fatty acids) in mammals; a function that may be conserved in fishes. In order to evaluate the effects of leptin on lipid metabolism in carp, I first produced recombinant carp leptin-I using a bacterial expression system. Carp leptin was injected into the intraperitoneal cavity of koi (domesticated common carp) then, after a three hour recovery period, sampled for plasma and liver tissue. To evaluate the effects of leptin on lipolysis, plasma non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) concentrations were measured. Additionally, hepatic enzyme activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-I (CPT) was measured to assess changes in fatty acid oxidation. Leptin injections increased plasma NEFA concentrations significantly but had no effect on hepatic CPT activity. These results suggest that leptin stimulates lipolysis but may not affect fatty acid oxidation as it does in mammals. I suggest that additional studies are needed to look at more specific indicators of lipid catabolism and oxidation, and higher more chronic doses of leptin should be used to thoroughly evaluate leptin's role in the lipid metabolism of fishes.

Download or read book Cyprinus Carpio written by Stephen R. Balcombe and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on global aspects of common carps biological features, ecology and diseases. Common carp have a high adaptive capacity in a wide range of conditions and habitats that have enabled them to be distributed across most regions of the world, except Antarctica. Common carp play an essential role in feeding the world as one of the highest sources of animal protein for humans worldwide. Therefore, an understanding of various biological aspects of common carp across the environments they inhabit are essential for their care and management in wild or cultured situations. Creating a compendium of knowledge surrounding common carp biology will provide useful knowledge for aquaculturists and scientists working to maximize their production. Biological aspects of common carp vary depending on the mode of management and environment in which they are growing. This book describes in detail various important biological aspects, particularly habitat, growth and production, food habits, breeding, maturation, fecundity, and behavior of common carp, which will benefit aquaculturists, students, and scientists. Zooplankton and zoobenthos communities are critical components of freshwater ecosystems and are very important for sustaining carp populations, both wild and cultured. This book also helps the reader to understand the ecology of carp ponds, particularly how common carp and pond management influence zooplankton and zoobenthos ecology. Common carp is the preferred food fish for many Asian and European consumers. Two chapters describe nutritional aspects of common carp, with special attention concerning factors that influence meat quality in terms of proximate and fatty acids composition. Like other fish, common carp also encounter many diseases during their lifespan. Various biological agents (pathogens) particularly viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites may initiate disease. Their growth and abundance are related to various environmental factors such as temperature, various dissolved gases, pH, and availability of food. Therefore, in addition to biology and ecology, this book provides a clear understanding about various methodologies of identifying various diseases of common carp, together with methods and the methods of managing disease, particularly preventative and control measures.

Download or read book Aquatic Physiology Environmental Pollution Nanotoxicology and Phytoremediation written by Alaa El-Din Hamid Sayed and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2021-01-22 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Research Topic is part of the Aquatic Physiology, Environmental Pollution, Nanotoxicology and Phytoremediation series: Aquatic Physiology, Environmental Pollution, Nanotoxicology and Phytoremediation, Volume II Environmental pollution as a result of increasing industrialization is a major problem worldwide. The toxicity of the chemicals, hazards, radiation, and environmental stressor to the aquatic fauna was studied. Although, recently, the excess levels of wastes discharged in water caused severe toxicity in aquatic environments and their fauna, still there is some shortage in the nanotoxicology and phytoremediation studies. So, the aim of this Research Topic is to create some knowledge about the environmental pollution and remediation in aquatic environment in collaboration with experts in physiology, biochemistry, endocrinology, morpho-histology of aquatic fauna. The relation between physiology and other research fields is strong enough as all researchers in biology field use some extent physiological parameters to evaluate the organisms’ health status in normal and stressful conditions. In addition, physiology with endocrinology and neurology can provide a contribution on the endocrine stress response of aquatic vertebrates and regulate the responses of vertebrates to stressors. Whilst the physiology of most aquatic animals has been well studied, not many articles provide sufficient data that helps understanding the common bases of the stress response after exposure to environmental pollutants and mechanisms of action. Such approach needs to be taken both in terms of comparative responses among vertebrates but also among classes or orders within groups of vertebrates. Another aspect that has not been sufficiently approached so far is physiological stress response in relation to immunity, growth, reproduction or behavior and embryology of the aquatic organisms, which expands the knowledge on the interactions between physiological systems to build an overall stress response.
Download or read book Recent Advances and Perspectives in Deoxynivalenol Research written by Marc Maresca and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by molds. Although the primary role of these toxins is thought to be related to the colonisation of the environment by the fungi--mycotoxins are able to kill other micro-organisms (antimicrobial effect) and/or plant cells (mycotoxin-producing fungi being necrophagic)--the exposure of animals and humans to mycotoxins through the consumption of mycotoxin-contaminated food and feeds leads to diseases and death. Among the different mycotoxins described (more than 350 mycotoxins have been identified), deoxynivalenol (DON or vomitoxin) produced by Fusarium species has attracted the most attention due to its prevalence and toxicity. DON is part of a family of mycotoxins called trichothecenes that are small sesquiterpenoids with an epoxide group at positions 12-13 allowing their binding to ribosomes causing the so-called ribosome stress response, characterized by the activation of various protein kinases that lead to alterations in gene expression and cellular toxicity in animals, humans and plants. Here, we compiled very recent findings regarding DON and its derivatives: i) their prevalence in human food; ii) the estimation of the exposure of humans to them using biological markers; iii) their roles during plant-fungi interaction; iv) the alteration caused by them in animals and humans, particularly at low doses that are close to those observed in farm animals and human consumers; v) possible strategies to decrease their presence in food and feeds. Overall, this book will give the reader a clear and global view on this important mycotoxin produced by Fusarium species which is responsible for huge economic loss and health issues.

Download or read book Fish Omega 3 and Human Health written by William E. M. Lands and published by AOCS Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Lands expertly explains how curative/treatment interventions have unsuccessfully prevented diseases by ignoring the initial dietary causes of disease and death. With years of clinical and dietary expertise, he uses clear examples and current data to demonstrate how a moderate, balanced diet is the key to long-term good health. This edition includes an expanded glossary of words and concepts to help readers recognize how specific nutrient imbalances in our normal diets can contribute to disease and death. Also new to this edition are dietary tables showing the link between diet choices and the levels of healthy omega-3 in the body. As Dr. Lands eloquently states, "Curiosity is the beginning of understanding, and a steady pursuit of our questions seems to always lead us into new adventures and new understandings." The second edition of Fish, Omega-3 and Human Health reaffirms that the essential fatty acids in the foods we eat form hormones that have powerful effects on human life. While many find it hard to believe that a simple change of diet can affect so many aspects of their lives, this book aims to shift prevailing attitudes about the relationship between foods and disease.
