In the present study, we determined the hepatopancratic shbg transcript abundance and ovarian immunoreactive Shbg (ir-Shbg) localization in pejerrey females at different gonadal stages during an annual ovarian cycle. In the hepatopancreas, shbg expression remains was constant in pre-vitellogenic stages, decreased at final vitellogenesis to increase again in final maturation and atretic stages to previous levels at post-vitellogenic stages. Related to this, also we found a negative significant relation between sex steroid and shbg expression. On the other hand, in the ovary we found ir-Shbg inside of cortical alveoli, from previtellogenic stages to final maturation. This localization of Shbg in a teleost fish ovary suggests a new role for Shbg in oocytes, that may also extend the oocyte fertilization/development process.

Background: In recent years, titanium dioxide (TiO) nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely used in various industries due to their favorable chemical properties, and their contamination of the environment has attracted much attention, especially to aquatic animals.
Methods: Therefore, we assessed the impact of TiO NPs (5 mg/L) on the marine bivalve, pearl oyster (), especially gill metabolism. Pearl oysters were exposed to seawater containing 5 mg/L TiO NPs for 14 days, followed by 7 days of recovery in untreated seawater.

Nitrite is a toxic substance found in rearing water that affects shrimp health. The hepatopancreas is an important digestive, immune, and metabolic organ in the shrimp. In this study, shrimps (Litopenaeus vannamei) were separately exposed to 1 and 5 mg/L nitrite stress for 48 h, and the toxicity of nitrite in the hepatopancreas was explored by integrating histology, physiological indicators, energy metabolism, and metabolomics.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely found endocrine-disrupting chemical (EDC). Nanoplastics (NPs) represent a novel environmental pollutant, and the combined toxicity of these pollutants on the hepatopancreas of marine arthropods is understudied. To investigate the potential risks associated with co-exposure to BPA and NPs on the hepatopancreas, Portunus trituberculatus was treated with 100 μg/L BPA, 10 particles/L NPs, and a combination of 100 μg/L BPA + 10 particles/L NPs for 21 days, respectively.

This study explores the impact of SYNLAC Prime probiotics on the growth performance, health status, and metabolic profile of white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei. Shrimp fed with the experimental diets, including the control diet without probiotic supplementation, and the diets supplemented with SYNLAC Prime probiotics at concentrations of 10 CFU (g diet) (P5) and 10 CFU (g diet) (P6) for 56 days. Results indicated a significant enhancement in growth performance in probiotic-treated shrimp relative to the control group, attributed to structural improvements in the digestive tract, particularly the increased abundances of B cells in the hepatopancreas.
