Natural resistance-associated macrophage protein (Nramp) genes in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, were identified and characterized. The greatest mRNA level encoding these genes was in the developing ovary of rainbow trout. We evaluated the response of these genes to a certain aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonist. Adult rainbow trout were treated with beta-naphthoflavone (BNF) (50 and 100 mg/kg) for 48 h. Using reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction with ovary and head kidney RNA and specific alpha and beta Nramp primers, a 400 bp Nramp-alpha- and a 400 bp Nramp-beta-specific cDNA were obtained. There were no changes in the alpha and beta Nramp mRNA levels in the ovary following BNF administration. CYP1A1 mRNA was increased in the ovary and kidney, suggesting the presence of AHR in rainbow trout ovary, while the AHR agonist produced no effect on Nramp mRNAs.

Salmonids, classified as physostomous fish, maintain buoyancy by ingesting air to inflate their swim bladders. Long-term submergence has been shown to cause body imbalance and reduced growth performance in these fish. Previous studies have demonstrated that extended photoperiod can promote growth in salmonids.

In many eukaryotes, meiotic recombination occurs preferentially at discrete sites, called recombination hotspots. In various lineages, recombination hotspots are located in regions with promoter-like features and are evolutionarily stable. Conversely, in some mammals, hotspots are driven by PRDM9 that targets recombination away from promoters.

Non-classical MHC class I genes which, compared to classical MHC class I, are typically less polymorphic and have more restricted expression patterns are attracting interest because of their potential to regulate immune responses to various pathogens. In salmonids, among the numerous non-classical MHC class I genes identified to date, L lineage genes, including Sasa- and , are differentially induced in response to microbial challenges. In the present study, we show that while transcription of both and are induced in response to SAV3 infection the transcriptional induction patterns are distinct for each gene.

Smart packaging, also known as intelligent packaging, is responsive to external stimuli, moisture, light, oxygen, heat, pH, and bacterial growth. In this study, polyvinyl alcohol/nanochitosan/phycocyanin nanocomposite (PVA/NCH/PC-NC) for fish fillets of Oncorhynchus mykiss rainbow trout coating was prepared. Five treatments were prepared over a period of 14 days (0, 1, 7 and 14 days) under treatments of T: fish coated with PVA/NCH-NC without PC; T, T T and T fish coated with PVA/NCH/PC-NC (0.

Burn wounds are challenging to treat due to considerable tissue damage and fluid loss. Creating wound dressings from natural and biological materials makes it possible to treat wounds and promote rapid epithelialization to speed healing and restore skin function. As a result, the ability of a collagen scaffold (Col) made from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and putative bioactive phytochemical components from a Sargassum glaucescens (S.
