Effects of Schizochytrium and micro-minerals on immune, antioxidant, inflammatory and lipid-metabolism status of Micropterus salmoides fed high- and low-fishmeal diets.

ABSTRACT: A 12-week factorial experiment was conducted to investigate the interactive effects of dietary algal meal (Schizochytrium sp., AM) and micro-minerals (MM, either organic [OM] or inorganic [IM]) on the immune and antioxidant status, and the expression of hepatic genes involved in the regulation of antioxidants, inflammatory cytokines, lipid metabolism, and organ growth of largemouth bass (LMB; Micropterus salmoides) fed high-and low-fishmeal (FM) diets. For this purpose, two sets of six iso-nitrogenous (42% crude protein) and iso-lipidic (12% lipid) diets, such as high (35%) and low (10%) FM diets were formulated. Within each FM level, AM was used to replace 50% or 100% of fish oil (FO), or without AM (FO control) and supplemented with either OM or IM (Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, and Se). Diets were fed to juvenile LMB (initial weight, 25.87?±?0.08?g) to near satiation twice daily. The results indicated that FO replacement by dietary AM did not change the levels of most biochemical (ALB, AMY, TP and GLOB), antioxidants (SOD, GPx and GSH), and immune (IgM and lysozyme) parameters in LMB, except ALP and CAT. MM affected only hepatic GSH, with lower values in fish fed the OM diets. FM influenced the levels of ALP, AMY, GLOB, IgM, and MDA (P?

Project description:Varying dietary inclusion levels of fish protein hydrolysates (FPH) were applied in a feeding experiment with juvenile largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) to assess their effects on growth, intestinal antioxidant status, immunity, and microflora. FPH were added in 4 dietary levels: 0 g/kg (control group, FPH-0), 10 g/kg (FPH-10), 30 g/kg (FPH-30), and 50 g/kg (FPH-50) dry matter, respectively substituting 0, 5.3, 16.3, and 27.3% of fish meal with dietary fish meal. Quadruplicate groups of 25 juvenile largemouth bass with initial body weight 9.51 ± 0.03 g were fed during the 56-day feeding experiment. Experimental results showed that fish fed FPH-30 obtained a significantly higher weight gain rate (WGR), specific growth rate (SGR), protein efficiency ratio (PER), and significant feed conversion rate (FCR) compared to the other three groups (P < 0.05). FPH-30 group also promoted protein synthesis and deposition, as evidenced by the higher whole-body crude protein contents, the higher expressions of GH1, IGF-1, TOR, and S6K in the liver, and SLC7A5, SLC7A8, SLC38A2, and SLC15A2 in the intestine than the other three groups. FPH-30 group could also enhance intestinal health status by increasing the activities of SOD, POD, CAT, GSH-Px, and T-AOC activities by upregulating the expressions of SOD, GSH-Px, IL1β, and TNFβ, and by reducing the MDA contents and the expressions of IL15, Caspase 3, Caspase 9, and Caspase 10 than other groups. Compared to the control group, the Actinobacteriota abundance markedly decreased in FPH treatments, while the variation tendency of the phylum Proteobacteria was opposite. The peak value of Firmicutes:Bacteroidetes ratio and the lowest of Bacteroidetes abundance were seen in largemouth bass fed FPH-30 (P < 0.05). Fish in three FPH treatments had lower abundances of opportunistic pathogens Staphylococcus and Plesiomonas than fish in the control group. In conclusion, FPH is a nutritious feed ingredient for juvenile largemouth bass, and can be added to a dietary level of 30 g/kg dry matter replacing fish meal without any negative effect on growth and feed utilization. FPH supplements could also strengthen the intestinal immune mechanisms of largemouth bass to tackle the immunodeficiency produced by fish meal replacement.

Project description:Microalgae have beneficial effects on the performance of fish as additives and they are becoming a promising alternative to fishmeal as macronutrient ingredients. However, the impact on the fish intestinal microbiome and the function, caused by microalgae as protein sources in diets, remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the composition and potential function of the intestinal microbial community of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) fed diets at five replacement levels (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%) of fishmeal by Chlorella meal in a basal diet (400 g kg-1) after 8 weeks. The results showed significant decreases in unique amplicon sequence variants in the intestine at the higher levels of fishmeal replacement. At 50% of fishmeal replacement, dietary inclusions of Chlorella meal had no impact on species richness and Shannon diversity and the community structure of the intestinal microbiota. However, high levels of fishmeal replacement (75 and 100%) significantly induced intestinal community disturbance and diversity loss in largemouth bass. Responding to the high fishmeal replacement level, the dominant genus Cetobacterium and Pleslomonas sharply increased and several taxa from Lactobacillus decreased significantly. Functional data predicted by PICRUSt revealed that nutrition-related metabolism was dominant in the intestinal microbiota of fish fed all the five diets, although some potential functions, particularly amino acid and lipid metabolisms, and energy metabolism, were upregulated firstly, and then downregulated in fish fed diets with the increase of dietary Chlorella meal. Meanwhile, certain pathways were not enriched in intestinal microbiome until up to 75% of fishmeal replacement, such as carbohydrate metabolism, and cofactors and vitamins metabolism. To conclude, this study reveals that fishmeal replacement (50%) by Chlorella meal at the level of 237 g kg-1 in diets is feasible for largemouth bass without impairing the microbiome structure and the metabolism function, providing an alternative strategy for evaluating the possibility of fishmeal replacement by microalgae in aquafeeds.
