Tryptophan and Cortisol Modulate the Kynurenine and Serotonin Transcriptional Pathway in the Kidney of .

Aquaculture fish are kept for long periods in sea cages or tanks. Consequently, accumulated stress causes the fish to present serious problems with critical economic losses. Fish food has been supplemented to reduce this stress, using many components as amino acids such as tryptophan.

Live and inactivated activated nutritional immunity in Atlantic salmon ().

Nutritional immunity regulates the homeostasis of micronutrients such as iron, manganese, and zinc at the systemic and cellular levels, preventing the invading microorganisms from gaining access and thereby limiting their growth. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the activation of nutritional immunity in specimens of Atlantic salmon () that are intraperitoneally stimulated with both live and inactivated . The study used liver tissue and blood/plasma samples on days 3, 7, and 14 post-injections (dpi) for the analysis.

Transcriptional modulation of immune genes in gut of Sub-Antarctic notothenioid fish Eleginops maclovinus challenged with Francisella noatunensis subsp. noatunensis.

The search for functional foods that improve the immune response has traditionally been focused on lymphoid tissue and the intestinal mucosa. However, it is unknown whether there is a different immune response in different portions of the gut following exposure to a bacterial pathogen. We challenged Eleginops maclovinus intraperitoneally (i.

Brain immunity response of fish Eleginops maclovinus to infection with Francisella noatunensis.

The brain's immune system is selective and hermetic in most species, including fish, favoring immune responses mediated by soluble immunomodulatory factors such as serotonin and the availability of nutrients against infectious processes. Francisella noatunensis coexist with fish such as Eleginops maclovinus, which raises questions about the susceptibility and immune response of the brain of E. maclovinus against Francisella.

Francisella noatunensis subsp. noatunensis triggers calcium metabolism gene modulation in Eleginops maclovinus.

Francisella noatunensis subsp. noatunensis is the responsible agent of Francisellosis, a bacterial disease that affects an important amount of aquatic farmed species. Eleginops maclovinus is a fish that cohabits with salmonids cages in Chile and can also act as a vector of this bacterial disease.

Intermediary metabolic response and gene transcription modulation on the Sub-Antarctic notothenioid Eleginops maclovinus (Valenciennes, 1930) injected with two strains of Piscirickettsia salmonis.

Pathogen interactions with cultured fish populations are well studied, but their effects on native fishes have not been characterized. In Chile, the disease caused by bacterial species Piscirickettsia salmonis represents one of the main issues and is considered to be one of the important pathogens in the field of aquaculture. They have been found to infect native fish.

Identification and expressional analysis of NLRC5 inflammasome gene in smolting Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).

The NOD-like receptors (NLRs) were recently identified as an intracellular pathogen recognition receptor family in vertebrates. While the immune system participation of NLRs has been characterized and analyzed in various mammalian models, few studies have considered NLRs in teleost species. Therefore, this study analyzed the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) NLRC5.
