Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effect of dietary Bacillus circulans PB7 (BCPB7) and fructoligosaccharide (FOS), used singly or in combination for evaluation of growth, immune and physiological status of Labeo rohita (rohu) juveniles reared under low pH and normal pH for 60 days. Experimental fishes were distributed in two sets such as one set continuously exposed to low pH (5.5) and other reared under normal pH (7.0), and fed with four iso-nitrogenous diets viz. basal (control), Bacillus circulans PB7 (BCPB7, 106 cfug-1), 1% fructooligosaccharide (FOS) and their combination. The effect of such pre, pro and synbiotics dietary treatments on growth performance (weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio), immune response (hematological indices, serum biochemistry, lysozyme, NBT activity), antioxidative status in the form of antioxidant enzyme (catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione-S-transferase), acetylcholine esterase (AChE), Na+ K+ ATPase and stress bio-markers (cortisol, glucose and HSP-70) were examined. The group treated with low pH and fed with control diet (without supplementation) was found to be inhibited (p < 0.05) in growth and immuno-physiological function. However, supplementation of BCPB7 and FOS was non-significant (p < 0.05) on growth performance and physiological process but their concurrent feeding remarkably improved (p < 0.05) growth and immune-physiological function when exposed to low pH. Overall results indicate that dietary combination of BCPB7 and FOS can be considered an effective synbiotic formula against low pH stress in culture practices of L. rohita juveniles.

Abstract
The effects of dietary folic acid on biochemical parameters and gene expression of three heat shock proteins (HSPs) of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) fingerling under acute high temperature stress. Six dietary folic acid groups (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0, and 10.0) mg/kg diets were designed and assigned into 18 tanks in three replicates each (300 l/tank) and were administered for 10 weeks in a re-circulated water system. The fingerlings with an initial weight of 27.0 ± 0.03 g were fed with their respective diets four times daily. At the end of the experiment, samples were collected before challenge, 0, 24, 72 h, and 7 days. Serum total protein (TP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), cortisol, glucose, complement C3 (C3), complement C4 (C4, immunoglobulin M (IgM) hepatic superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), malondialdehyde (MDA), and the expression of heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), 70 (HSP70), and 90 (HSP90) were studied. The results showed that fish fed with dietary folic acid between 1.0, 2.0, and 5.0 mg/kg significantly (P < 0.05) increased serum TP, C3, C4 hepatic SOD, CAT, and the expression of HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90 before and after temperature challenge of 32 °C. Also, serum ALP, cortisol, glucose, and hepatic MDA were significantly (P < 0.05) reduced by supplementation of dietary folic acid level 1.0, 2.0, and 5.0 mg/kg before and after the same temperature challenge of 32 °C. Before stress, 0, 24, 72 h, and 7 days significantly (P < 0.05) affects serum biochemical parameters, immune and antioxidant capacities, and expression level of three HSPs. Furthermore, there was no statistical evidence to show that dietary folic acid inclusion level and temperature duration have significant interactive effect on serum biochemical parameters, antioxidant parameters, and gene expression level (P > 0.05) of the three HSPs. However, there were statistical significant interactive effect between dietary folic acid inclusion level and temperature duration on serum C3 and C4 (P < 0.05) except IgM (P > 0.05). The present results indicate that supplementation of basal diet from 1.0 mg/kg; 2.0 and 5.0 mg/kg can enhance acute high temperature resistance ability in M. amblycephala fingerling to some degree and improve physiological response, immune and antioxidant capacities, and expression level of three HSPs.

Effect of pH on temperature controlled degradation of reactive oxygen species, heat shock protein expression, and mucosal immunity in the sea cucumber Isostichopus badionotus. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0175812.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of pH on the activity of antioxidant and immune enzymes in the sea cucumber Isostichopus badionotus exposed to different temperatures. The organisms (530 ±110 g) were exposed to 16, 20, 24, 28, 30, 34 and 36°C for 6 h to evaluate thermal limits at two water pH values (treatment = 7.70; control = 8.17). For the thermal tolerance experiment, the organisms were exposed to sublethal temperature of 34°C for 3, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h. I. badionotus showed signs of thermal stress by synthesizing heat shock protein 70 (hsp70) at the cold (16°C) and warm thermal limits (34°C). The glutathione peroxidase (GPx) showed a negative correlation with superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in modulating the effect of oxidative stress at different temperature levels. Specifically, GPx activity was maximal at the extremes of the cold and warm temperatures (16, 20, and 36°C) tested, while contrarily, the SOD activity increased significantly in the narrow range of temperature between 28 and 30°C, as a part of a reaction to offset oxidative damage. The effect of pH on the expression of hsp70 was not significant, whereas the antioxidant enzymes activity was stimulated at pH 7.70. Mucosal immunity, evidenced by the activation of the phenoloxidase (PO) system, increased above the basal level at pH 7.70 and at 28, 30, and 34°C. Independent of pH, the temperature of 34°C was identified as the 12 h-sublethal upper limit for I. badionotus.

Abstract
This study determined the effect of dietary soybean isoflavones on non-specific immunity and on mRNA expression of two HSPs in juvenile golden pompano Trachinotus ovatus under pH stress. Six diets were formulated to contain 0, 10, 20, 40, 60 and 80 mg/kg of soybean isoflavones. Each diet was fed to triplicate groups of fish in cylindrical tanks. After 56 days of feeding, 15 fish per tank were exposed to pH stress (pH ≈ 9.2) for 24 h. Serum total protein (TP), respiratory burst activity (RBA), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (AKP), lysozyme (LYZ), complement 3 (C3), complement 4 (C4), cortisol, hepatic total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT) and the relative mRNA expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and 90 (HSP90) were investigated. The results showed that after pH stress, serum TP, RBA, LYZ, C4, hepatic T-AOC and CAT levels were significantly reduced (P < 0.05) while serum ALT, hepatic MDA and HSP70 and HSP90 mRNA expression levels were significantly increased (P < 0.05). On the other hand, supplementation with soybean isoflavones significantly reduced levels of serum ALT (20, 40, 60 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups) and hepatic MDA (40, 60 and 80 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups). Supplemented groups had increased serum TP content (40 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups), RBA (20 and 40 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups), LYZ (40 and 60 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups), C3(20, 40, 60 and 80 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups), hepatic SOD activity (40, 60 and 80 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups) as well as increased relative mRNA expression of hepatic HSP70 (40, 60 and 80 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups) and HSP90 (40 and 60 mg/kg soybean isoflavones groups) (P < 0.05). These results indicate that ingestion of a basal diet supplemented with 40-60 mg/kg soybean isoflavones could enhance resistance against pH stress in T. Ovatus to some degree.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins 70 (Hsp70) are the most extensively studied heat shock proteins for the cellular abundance and cytoprotective effects. Hsp70 induction and subsequent quantification has been used as a sensitive system for aquatic toxicity risk assessment. In this study, the confocal microscopy was used to localize Hsp70 in Carassius auratus (C. auratus) with immunohistochemical technology. There are different zooms to select to analyze the object at the same field of vision with one objective lens with confocal microscopy. It need not change objective lens to observe the details of tissues. In this study, the tissue slices of C. auratus were observed with the 20-fold objective lens. Furthermore, the zooms of 1, 2, and 3 were used to acquire the distribution of Hsp70 in the tissue slices of C. auratus, and the clearer images of Hsp70 in the tissues were acquired. The results indicated that Hsp70 were present in the gill, liver, and cardiac muscle of C. auratus, and a method was established to detect Hsp70 in the tissues of C. auratus with confocal microscopy.

Abstract
Fish are subjected to a wide variety of environmental stressors. Stressors affect fish at all life stages and the stress-specific responses that occur at the biochemical and physiological levels affect the overall health and longevity of such animals. In this review, the organ-specific alterations in fish that inhabit polluted environments are addressed in detail. Fish,like other vertebrates, have evolved strategies to counteract stress-mediated effects. Among the key strategies that fish have developed is the induction of HSPs. The primary functions of HSPs are to promote the proper folding or refolding of proteins, to prevent potentially damaging interactions with proteins, and aiding in the disassembly of formations of protein aggregates. Stress, a state of unbalanced tissue oxidation, causes a general disturbance in the cellular antioxidant and redox balance and evokes HSP70 overexpression. Distinct families of HSPs have diverse physiological functions, and their induction, which is regulated at the transcriptional level, is mediated by the activation of heat shock factors. Interestingly, HSPs also interact with a wide variety of signaling molecules that modulate stress-mediated apoptotic effects. Hence, HSP induction is of major importance for maintenance of cell homeostasis. HSP-mediated adaptation processes are regarded as a fundamental protective mechanism that decreases cellular sensitivity to damaging events. Thus, the adaptive expression of HSPs is a protective response that helps combat stress-induced conformational damage to proteins. Additional research is needed to gain further information on the functional significance and role of individual HSPs and to enhance the understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which they act. In addition, field studies are needed to allow comprehensive evaluation of the potential use of HSPs as biomarkers for environmental monitoring. Furthermore, the expression of HSPs in fish fluctuates in response to seasonal variation. Because HSPs serves as a tool for assessing the stressed state of individuals and/or populations, the impact of seasonal influences on constitutive and inducible factors of these proteins should also be elucidated. Such research will lead to a fundamental improvement in the understanding of the functional role of HSPs in response to natural environmental changes and may allow correlation of the action of HSPs at the molecular level with the whole organismal stress response, which, so far, remains unexplained.

Abstract
Activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR), and glucose-6-phophate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) were measured in four tissues of goldfish, Carassius auratus L., over 1-12 h of high temperature (35 degrees C) exposure followed by 4 or 24 h of lower temperature (21 degrees C) recovery. SOD activity was strongly affected by heat shock, increasing 4-fold in brain, liver, and kidney, but was mainly reversed at recovery. In some tissues, activities of SOD, catalase, GPx, and G6PDH decreased significantly after 1 h heat shock exposure suggesting that thermal inactivation possibly occurred, but were renewed at further exposure. In many cases, 4 h of return to the initial temperature decreased enzyme activities. High correlation coefficients between SOD activities and levels of lipid peroxidation products suggest that these products might be involved in up-regulation of antioxidant defense. Several enzymes (SOD, GST, GR) responded to stress in coordinated manner.

Abstract
Levels of lipid peroxides (LOOH), thiobarbituric-acid reactive substances (TBARS), protein carbonyls and low- and high-molecular weight thiols were measured in brain, liver, kidney, and white muscle of goldfish, Carassius auratus L., over 1-12 h of high temperature (35 degrees C) exposure followed by 4 or 24 h of lower (21 degrees C) temperature recovery. LOOH and TBARS contents increased during heat shock exposure with a maximal rise of 20-fold for liver TBARS, but both mainly reversed at recovery. Protein carbonyl content was unaffected by heat shock but rose in brain, liver, and kidney during recovery. Low-molecular weight thiol concentrations unexpectedly increased up to approximately 4-fold in brain, kidney and muscle under heat shock and remained high during recovery. Protein thiol contents also rose in liver and muscle during high temperature exposure by 2- and 3-fold, respectively, and decreased to control values or below in all tissues at late recovery. Low- and high-molecular weight thiol levels inversely correlated in liver (R2=0.87) suggesting that the former was used to reduce the latter over the experiment. It is concluded that the redox balance in goldfish tissues is strictly maintained probably contributing to the high tolerance of this species to heat shock.

Abstract
Cross-tolerance, or the ability of one stressor to transiently increase tolerance to a second heterologous stressor, is thought to involve the induction of heat shock proteins (Hsp). We thus investigated the boundaries of cross-tolerance in tidepool sculpins (Oligocottus maculosus) and their relationship to Hsp70 levels. Survival of sculpins exposed to severe osmotic (90 ppt, 2 h) and hypoxic (0.33 mg O(2)/L, 2 h) stressors increased from 68% to 96%, and from 47% to 76%, respectively, following a +12 degrees C heat shock. The magnitude of this heat shock was critical for protection. A +10 degrees C heat shock did not confer cross-tolerance, while a +15 degrees C heat shock was deleterious. Sculpins required between 8 and 48 h of recovery following the +12 degrees C heat shock to develop cross-tolerance. There was no association between Hsp70 levels before the onset of the secondary stressor and cross-tolerance. However, branchial Hsp70 levels following osmotic shock were highly correlated with the time frame of cross-tolerance. Thus, Hsp70 induction by the priming stressor may be less important than the ability of the cell to mount an Hsp response to subsequent stressors. The time frame of cross-tolerance is similar to the interval between low tides, suggesting the possible relevance of this response in nature.

Abstract
SUMMARY
Expression of the constitutive Hsp73, inducible Hsp72 and Hsp90 was investigated in brain, heart, liver and skeletal muscle of the anoxia-tolerant western painted turtle Chrysemys picta bellii in response to 2, 6,12, 18, 24 and 30 h forced dives and following 1 h recovery from 12, 24 and 30 h forced dives at 17°C. During a dive, expression of all three Hsps examined remained at control levels for at least 12 h in all tissues examined except the liver, where Hsp72 showed a decrease at 12 h, reaching a significant threefold decrease by 24 h. Brain and liver Hsp73, 72 and 90 expression increased two- to threefold at 18, 24 and 30 h. Heart and muscle Hsp73 and heart Hsp90 expression remained at normoxic levels throughout the entire dive, while heart and muscle Hsp72 and muscle Hsp90 increased two- to fourfold at 24 and 30 h. Following reoxygenation, Hsp expression increased in all tissues examined. These data indicate that increased Hsp expression is not critical in the early adaptation to anoxic survival and that short-term anoxia is probably not a stress for species adapted to survive long periods without oxygen. However, the late upregulation of heat shock proteins during anoxia suggests that stress proteins play a role in promoting long-term anoxia tolerance.
