Growth, blood health, antioxidant status and immune response in juvenile yellow catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco exposed to α-ethinylestradiol (EE2).
Fish & Shellfish Immunology 2017 October
Triplicate groups of juvenile yellow catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco were exposed to three levels of α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) (0, 0.1 and 1 ng L-1 ) for 56 days. Fish survival rate (>93.33%) was not different among experimental groups. Weight gain and specific growth rate of fish exposed to EE2 were higher than those of control fish. Hepatosomatic index of fish exposed to 1 ng L-1 EE2 was the highest. Serum total protein, albumin, globulin, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate transaminase, cholesterol and triglyceride increased with increasing EE2 exposure levels. Liver total anti-oxidative capacity, malondialdehyde content and lysozyme activity of fish exposed to EE2 were higher than those of control fish. Phagocytic indices of fish exposed to 1 ng L-1 EE2 was lower than that of control fish. This study indicates that although EE2 exposure can promote the growth of yellow catfish in short-term, EE2 exerts its toxic effects by inducing reactive oxygen species generation and malondialdehyde accumulation, leading to blood deterioration and interfering with immune response.
