Oxidative stress biomarker responses in juvenile Colossoma macropomum during hypoxia and reoxygenation
摘要
This study examined tissue-specific oxidative stress responses in juvenile Colossoma macropomum during 72 h of hypoxia (0.92 ± 0.37 mg L⁻1 O₂) followed by reoxygenation. The liver showed increased reduced glutathione (GSH) during hypoxia and recovery, while brain GSH remained stable, indicating differential antioxidant regulation. Lipid peroxidation (TBARS) decreased in the liver but increased in the brain during hypoxia, suggesting tissue-specific vulnerability. Hypoxia triggered feeding cessation, but full recovery occurred within 48 h post-stress. These findings underscore the resilience of C. macropomum to hypoxia, with targeted metabolic adjustments that could guide aquaculture strategies, such as stress-tolerant stock selection or optimized recovery protocols, to enhance productivity in oxygen-variable systems.
