Dietary Bacillus subtilis HGcc-1 improves the growth performance, α-amylase and lipase activities, immunity and antioxidant capacity, intestinal microbiota, and heat stress resistance in Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei).

This study aimed to investigate the effects of B. subtilis HGcc-1 supplementation on the growth performance, immunity response, antioxidant capacity, intestinal microbiota and heat stress resistance of Litopenaeus vannamei. The results showed that B.

Integrated analysis of intestinal microbiota and transcriptome reveals that a coordinated interaction of the endocrine, immune system and gut microbiota response to heat stress in Litopenaeus vannamei.

Due to the ongoing global warming, the risk of heatwaves in the oceans is continuously increasing while our understanding of the physiological response of Litopenaeus vannamei under extreme temperature conditions remains limited. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the physiological responses of L. vannamei under heat stress.

Characterization, Expression, and Functional Analysis of the Northern Snakehead (Channa argus) Hepcidin.

Hepcidin, an antimicrobial peptide (AMP), is a well-conserved molecule present in various species such as fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and mammals. It exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and holds a significant role in the innate immune system of host organisms. The northern snakehead (Channa argus) has become a valuable freshwater fish in China and Asia.

Insight into three water additives: Revealing the protective effects on survival and stress response under cold stress for Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei.

The reproduction, development and growth of shrimp were hindered by cold stress, and even death was caused in severe cases. Moreover, huge economic losses to the shrimp aquaculture industry were caused every year by cold currents. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential protective effects of water additives on the cold stress resistance of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and their ability to improve the survival and stress response of the shrimp.

Toxic effects of glyphosate on histopathology and intestinal microflora of juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei.

Glyphosate is a widely used broad-spectrum herbicide, its pollution to the surrounding conditions can't be ignored. It has been reported that glyphosate has poisonous impacts on aquatic animals. In this study, juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei (L.

New insights into the regulation mechanism of Litopenaeus vannamei hepatopancreas after lipopolysaccharide challenge using transcriptome analyses.

Litopenaeus vannamei (L. vannamei) is the most economically valuable cultured shrimp in the world, while Gram-negative bacteria infection causes huge economic losses to shrimp culture. In this study, we performed transcriptome sequencing of the hepatopancreas in L.

Intestinal morphology and microflora to Vibrio alginolyticus in pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei).

In recent years, the shrimp farming industry encountered significant economic losses induced by Vibrio alginolyticus. In this study, the influence of Vibrio alginolyticus on intestinal histomorphology and microbiome composition in Litopenaeus vannamei were studied. The results showed that the intestinal mucosal epithelial cells of Vibrio group (VA group) injected only with Vibrio alginolyticus showed large area exfoliation at 12 h, and the tissue morphology of intestine recovered at 48 h.

The complete mitochondrial genome of (Perciformes: Haemulidae).

The painted sweetlips (Thunberg 1792) is an important fish for commercial fisheries which is widely distributed in the Indo-West Pacific Ocean. It can change its external coloration and pattern during their lives. The complete mitochondrial genome of was determined in this study.

[Role of enamel matrix proteins in inducing biomimetic mineralization of the enamel: a study with quartz crystal microbalance technique].

Objective: To investigate the adsorption behavior of enamel matrix proteins (EMPs) on the enamel surface and study their effect on biomineralization of enamel using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique.

Methods And Results: The EMPs were adsorbed on the enamel surface to form a protein film, which was soaked in simulated body fluid solutions. After 30 days of biomimetic mineralization, the hydroxyapatite nucleation, growth and aggregation occurred with hydroxyapatite crystal formation on the enamel surface.
