Aeromonas hydrophila is one of the most prevalent pathogenic bacteria in largemouth bass. The use of antibiotics to inhibit A. hydrophila poses a significant threat to fish and environmental safety.

The toxicological effects of antipsychotics on aquatic organisms, particularly fish, are unexplored, and the underlying mechanisms remain unelucidated. This study aimed to use common carp to explore the effects of antipsychotics (olanzapine [OLA] and risperidone [RIS]) on behavior and the potential mechanisms driving these effects.

Despite dynamic changes in amino acid composition of an individual protein (referred to as AAP) and great variance in protein expression levels under different conditions, our study, utilizing transcriptomics data from four model organisms uncovers surprising stability in the overall amino acid composition of the total cellular proteins (referred to as AACell). Although this value may vary between different species, we observed no significant differences among distinct strains of the same species.

In addition, the biocontrol potential of the secondary metabolites of B. velezensis R-71003 was also evaluated to analyze the possible mechanism of B.

Genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) play an important role in the phenotype prediction of microorganisms, and their accuracy can be further improved by integrating other types of biological data such as enzyme concentrations and kinetic coefficients. Enzyme-constrained models (ecModels) have been constructed for several species and were successfully applied to increase the production of commodity chemicals. However, there was still no genome-scale ecModel for the important model organism prior to this study.

However, its impact on lipid metabolism in fish and its mechanisms of action are not well understood. In this study, common carp were exposed to 0, 10, 100, and 250 μM OLA for 60 days.
