The Rescue and Rehabilitation Center of Naked Carps in Qinghai Lake, Xining, 810000, China.
Article Synopsis
- Scaleless carp (Gymnocypris przewalskii) show special adaptations to survive in low oxygen environments, but how they manage this is not fully understood.
- A study created a hypoxic stress model for these fish to examine their gill responses, including oxidative stress and cellular changes after experiencing low oxygen levels.
- Results revealed changes in gill structure, increased apoptosis in cells, and a rise in antioxidant enzyme activity, highlighting how these carp adapt and cope with hypoxic conditions.
