The immature ovary of yellow eel was stimulated by a long-term treatment with a gonadotropin II rich extract of carp pituitary. Ovarian follicles of treated yellow eels showed an accumulation of lipidic vacuoles in the oocyte cytoplasm and a thickened follicular envelope (in this regard, they resembled the ovarian follicles of previously studied silver eels). The treatment also resulted in a significant but limited increase in the gonadosomatic ratio and mean follicle size (these values were much lower than those measured in silver eels). No change in pigmentation or general morphology was observed. Thus, under our experimental conditions, a gonadotropic stimulation of the yellow eel leads to some but not the totality of the ovarian modifications which occur physiologically during silvering.

is a common bacterial pathogen in aquaculture, often leading to visceral white spot disease in large yellow croakers (). Previous studies have found that certain aptamers show an efficient antibacterial effect against this pathogen. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome of to get insights into the antibacterial and inhibitions mechanisms following exposure to the aptamer B4.

Exploring the emulsification of myofibrillar protein (MP) from large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) could meet the demand for high-value development and utilization of fish proteins. Therefore, MPs as the emulsifier to form stable high internal-phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) with the addition of glycerol and the effects of different glycerol addition ratios of HIPPEs were investigated. HIPPEs could be constructed by MPs with the glycerol addition at a ratio of 15 %-30 % (v/v) compared to those without the addition of glycerol.

- A new species of moray eel, Gymnothorax arabicus sp. nov., has been identified in the northwestern Indian Ocean, with specific features like two branchial pores and a plain brown coloration.
- It differs from a similar species, G. pseudoherrei, by having more vertebrae, distinct dark stripes on its throat and head, and a larger maximum size.
- Genetic analysis supports the classification of G. arabicus as a separate species from G. pseudoherrei, confirming both morphological and genetic differences between the two.
European eel (Anguilla anguilla) survival modeling based on a 22-year capture-mark-recapture survey of a Mediterranean subpopulation.

Since the 1980s, the European eel (Anguilla anguilla) has declined by over 90% in recruitment across its European and North African distribution area. This diadromous fish spawns at sea and migrates into continental waters, where it grows for three to more than 30 years, depending on habitat conditions and location. During their growth, different habitat use tactics can locally influence the life-history traits of eels, including their survival rates.

Article Synopsis
- - A 43-year-old male kidney transplant recipient developed severe SIADH due to a disseminated Strongyloides stercoralis infection after consuming undercooked eel and sashimi.
- - The patient exhibited gastrointestinal symptoms and persistent low sodium levels, leading to the diagnosis of SIADH; testing confirmed the presence of the parasite.
- - Treatment with ivermectin proved effective, resolving both the SIADH and symptoms, highlighting the need for screening and awareness of this infection in transplant patients.
