Janus kinases (JAKs) are important components of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and play vital roles in innate immunity, autoimmune diseases, and inflammation. However, information about JAKs remains largely unknown in the spotted seabass, a fish species of Perciformes with great commercial value in the aquaculture industry. The aims of this study are to obtain the complete cDNA sequences of JAKs (JAK1, JAK2A, JAK2B, JAK3 and TYK2) from spotted seabass and to investigate their roles upon stimulation with lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and Edwardsiella tarda, using RT-PCR, PCR and qRT-PCR methods. All five JAK genes from the spotted seabass, each encode more than 1100 amino acids residues. JAK1 and JAK3 consist of 24 exons and 23 introns, whereas JAK2A, JAK2B and TYK2 consist of 23 exons and 22 introns. Furthermore, these five spotted seabass JAKs share high sequence identities with those of other fish species in protein domain analysis, synteny analysis, and phylogenetic analysis. Moreover, these five JAK genes were ubiquitously expressed in all tissues examined from healthy fish, and inducible expressions of JAKs were observed in the intestine, gill, head kidney, and spleen following LPS treatment or E. tarda infection. These findings indicate that all these JAK genes are involved in the antibacterial immunity of the spotted seabass and provide a basis for further understanding the mechanism of JAKs antibacterial response in the spotted sea bass.

A 10-week feeding trial, followed by 24-h nitrite stress, was performed to evaluate the effects of dietary selenium-L-methionine (Se-Met) on growth, Se accumulation, antioxidant capacity, transcripts of selenoproteins and histological changes of muscle as well as resistance to nitrite stress in spotted seabass () reared at optimal (27 °C) and high (33 °C) temperatures. Five experimental diets were formulated to contain 0, 0.9, 1.

Article Synopsis
- Low phosphorus (LP) diets disrupt energy metabolism in fish, particularly affecting liver functions and mitochondrial mechanisms, which are not well understood.
- The study involved feeding spotted seabass and zebrafish diets with varying phosphorus levels and utilizing methods like Drp1 knockdown and PKA activation to analyze molecular changes and mitochondrial health.
- Results showed that LP diets led to significant reductions in ATP and cAMP levels, while manipulating Drp1 and PKA pathways improved energy metrics in the liver, highlighting potential interventions for energy disorders in fish.

Our study aims to examine the changes of long-term high temperature on the mortality and health status of spotted seabass (Lateolabrax maculatus), as well as to screen suitable biomarkers to determine whether the spotted seabass is under heat stress. In this study, 360 juvenile spotted seabass were evenly distributed into three temperature-controlled systems at 27 °C (N, normal temperature), 31 °C (M, moderate temperature), and 35 °C (H, high temperature) for an 8-week aquaculture experiment. The results revealed that 35 °C water temperature significantly increased the mortality and the MDA content in tissues (P < 0.

Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on characterizing parvalbumin from the spotted seabass, a significant allergenic fish species in China, known for triggering food allergies.
- - Two specific proteins were identified as parvalbumins, showing strong IgE-binding capabilities; one of them, β-parvalbumin, consists of 109 amino acids and has a weight of 11.5 kDa.
- - The research also discovered that the produced anti-parvalbumin antibody recognized allergens across 26 different fish species, indicating cross-reactivity and enhancing methods for allergen identification and diagnosis.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied growth differences in spotted seabass on a low-phosphorus diet, using 150 fish over eight weeks to identify fast-growing (FG) and slow-growing (SG) categories based on weight.
- Analysis of the fish livers through metabolomics and transcriptomics showed that FG had a higher antioxidant capacity, and 431 differentially expressed genes were linked to metabolism, with many involved in processes like protein digestion and substance transport.
- The study concluded that FG exhibited enhanced liver functions related to immune response and amino acid metabolism, providing insights for improving low-phosphorus diets and selective breeding practices for spotted seabass.
