Impairment on fillet fatty acid profile and oxidative damage in pirarucu, Arapaima gigas, acutely exposed to extreme ambient temperature. Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 2024; 293:111625. [PMID: 38513801 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpa.2024.111625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024]
Abstract
Climatic events are affecting the Amazon basin and according to projections it is predicted the intensification of climate changes through increases in temperature and carbon dioxide (CO2). Recent evidence has revealed that exposure to an extreme climate scenario elicits oxidative damage in some fish species, impairing their metabolism and physiology, contributing to their susceptibility. Thus, the comprehension of physiological alterations in Arapaima gigas (pirarucu) to the climatic changes forecasted for the next 100 years is important to evaluate its capability to deal with oxidative stress. The objective of this work was to determine whether antioxidant defense system is able to prevent muscle oxidative damage of pirarucu exposed 96 h to extreme climate scenario, as well as the effects of this exposition on muscle fatty acid levels. Lipid peroxidation and reactive oxygen species significantly increase in the muscle of pirarucus exposed to an extreme climate scenario compared to control, while muscle superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase were significantly lower. Total amount of saturated fatty acids (SFAs) was significantly higher in pirarucu exposed to an extreme climate scenario compared to control, while total content of monounsaturated (MUFAs) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) was significantly lower. Exposure to an extreme climate scenario causes muscular oxidative stress and that the antioxidant systems are inefficient to avoid oxidative damage. In addition, the increase of total SFAs and the decrease of MUFAs and PUFAs probably intend to maintain membrane fluidity while facing high temperature and CO2 levels.

Abstract
This study presents a novel non-lethal sampling method for assessing fatty acid (FA) composition in juvenile European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) using subcutaneous white muscle biopsies. This research aimed to evaluate the suitability of the biopsy for FA analysis using two lipid extraction protocols and comparing them to a lethal routine method. The results showed that a mass of fresh tissue as low as 1.4 mg provided good quality FA chromatograms for both reserve and membrane lipids. Although the biopsy method displayed high variability in terms of FA quantity among intra-individual replicates, it showed good FA profile repeatability in both reserve and membrane lipids. The study highlights the potential of this non-lethal approach for studying FA dynamics in fish, with its application being particularly promising for ecological and experimental studies. However, careful biopsy implementation is recommended to account for potential lipid droplet and lipid distribution variability within the tissue.

Abstract
The lipids of the oyster (Crassostrea hongkongensis) have a special physiological activity function, which is essential to maintain human health. However, comprehensive research on their lipids species and metabolism is not so common. In our study, based on the high-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer (HPLC/Q-TOF-MS), the non-targeted lipidomics research of Crassostrea hongkongensis fresh and dried products was determined. Meanwhile, we analyzed its lipid outline, screened the differences between the lipid molecules of Crassostrea hongkongensis fresh and dried products, and determined the lipid metabolic pathway. Results showed that 1,523 lipid molecules were detected, in which polyunsaturated fatty acids mostly existed in such lipids as phosphoglyceride. Through the multivariate statistical analysis, according to the conditions of P < 0.05, FC > 2 or FC < 0.05, and VIP > 1.2, 239 different lipid molecules were selected, including 37 fatty acids (FA), 60 glycerol phospholipids (GP), 20 glycerin (GL), 38 sheath lipids (SP), 31 steroid lipids (ST), 36 polyethylene (PK), and 17 progesterone lipids (PR). Combined with the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), the differential lipid molecules were analyzed to mainly determine the role of the glycerin phospholipid metabolic pathway. As a whole, the results of this study provide the theoretical basis for the high-value utilization of oysters and are helpful to the development of oysters' physiological activity functions and deep utilization.

Effect of long-term intergenerational exposure to ocean acidification on ompa and ompb transcripts expression in European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax). MARINE ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2021; 170:105438. [PMID: 34340029 DOI: 10.1016/j.marenvres.2021.105438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/23/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Since sensory system allows organisms to perceive and interact with their external environment, any disruption in their functioning may have detrimental consequences on their survival. Ocean acidification has been shown to potentially impair olfactory system in fish and it is therefore essential to develop biological tools contributing to better characterize such effects. The olfactory marker protein (omp) gene is involved in the maturation and the activity of olfactory sensory neurons in vertebrates. In teleosts, two omp genes (ompa and ompb) originating from whole genome duplication have been identified. In this study, bioinformatic analysis allowed characterization of the ompa and ompb genes from the European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) genome. The European seabass ompa and ompb genes differ in deduced amino acid sequences and in their expression pattern throughout the tissues. While both ompa and ompb mRNA are strongly expressed in the olfactory epithelium, ompb expression was further observable in different brain areas while ompa expression was also detected in the eyes and in other peripheral tissues. Expression levels of ompa and ompb mRNA were investigated in adult seabass (4 years-old, F0) and in their offspring (F1) exposed to pH of 8 (control) or 7.6 (ocean acidification, OA). Under OA ompb mRNA was down-regulated while ompa mRNA was up-regulated in the olfactory epithelium of F0 adults, suggesting a long-term intragenerational OA-induced regulation of the olfactory sensory system. A shift in the expression profiles of both ompa and ompb mRNA was observed at early larval stages in F1 under OA, suggesting a disruption in the developmental process. Contrary to the F0, the expression of ompa and ompb mRNA was not anymore significantly regulated under OA in the olfactory epithelium of juvenile F1 fish. This work provides evidence for long-term impact of OA on sensorial system of European seabass as well as potential intergenerational acclimation of omp genes expression to OA in European seabass.

Ocean acidification boosts reproduction in fish via indirect effects. PLoS Biol 2021; 19:e3001033. [PMID: 33465064 PMCID: PMC7815143 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3001033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Ocean acidification affects species populations and biodiversity through direct negative effects on physiology and behaviour. The indirect effects of elevated CO2 are less well known and can sometimes be counterintuitive. Reproduction lies at the crux of species population replenishment, but we do not know how ocean acidification affects reproduction in the wild. Here, we use natural CO2 vents at a temperate rocky reef and show that even though ocean acidification acts as a direct stressor, it can indirectly increase energy budgets of fish to stimulate reproduction at no cost to physiological homeostasis. Female fish maintained energy levels by compensation: They reduced activity (foraging and aggression) to increase reproduction. In male fish, increased reproductive investment was linked to increased energy intake as mediated by intensified foraging on more abundant prey. Greater biomass of prey at the vents was linked to greater biomass of algae, as mediated by a fertilisation effect of elevated CO2 on primary production. Additionally, the abundance and aggression of paternal carers were elevated at the CO2 vents, which may further boost reproductive success. These positive indirect effects of elevated CO2 were only observed for the species of fish that was generalistic and competitively dominant, but not for 3 species of subordinate and more specialised fishes. Hence, species that capitalise on future resource enrichment can accelerate their reproduction and increase their populations, thereby altering species communities in a future ocean. Ocean acidification affects species populations and diversity through direct negative effects on physiology and behavior, but the indirect effects are less clear. Using volcanic carbon dioxide vents as natural analogues of future ocean acidification, this study shows that elevated CO2 can stimulate fish reproduction in the wild through increased food abundance, leading to increased energy budgets at no cost to physiological homeostasis.

Abstract
Anthropogenic climate change is causing our oceans to lose oxygen and become more acidic at an unprecedented rate, threatening marine ecosystems and their associated animals. In deep-sea environments, where conditions have typically changed over geological timescales, the associated animals, adapted to these stable conditions, are expected to be highly vulnerable to any change or direct human impact. Our study coalesces one of the longest deep-sea observational oceanographic time series, reaching back to the 1960s, with a modern visual survey that characterizes almost two vertical kilometers of benthic seamount ecosystems. Based on our new and rigorous analysis of the Line P oceanographic monitoring data, the upper 3,000 m of the Northeast Pacific (NEP) has lost 15% of its oxygen in the last 60 years. Over that time, the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ), ranging between approximately 480 and 1,700 m, has expanded at a rate of 3.0 ± 0.7 m/year (due to deepening at the bottom). Additionally, carbonate saturation horizons above the OMZ have been shoaling at a rate of 1-2 m/year since the 1980s. Based on our visual surveys of four NEP seamounts, these deep-sea features support ecologically important taxa typified by long life spans, slow growth rates, and limited mobility, including habitat-forming cold water corals and sponges, echinoderms, and fish. By examining the changing conditions within the narrow realized bathymetric niches for a subset of vulnerable populations, we resolve chemical trends that are rapid in comparison to the life span of the taxa and detrimental to their survival. If these trends continue as they have over the last three to six decades, they threaten to diminish regional seamount ecosystem diversity and cause local extinctions. This study highlights the importance of mitigating direct human impacts as species continue to suffer environmental changes beyond our immediate control.
