The aquaculture industry aims at replacing significant amounts of marine fish oil by vegetable oils in fish diet. Dietary lipids have been shown to alter the fatty acid composition of bone compartments, which would impact the local production of factors controlling bone formation. Knowledge on the mechanisms underlying the nutritional regulation of bone metabolism is however scarce in fish. Two in vitro bone-derived cell systems developed from seabream (an important species for aquaculture in the Mediterranean region) vertebra, capable of in vitro mineralization and exhibiting prechondrocyte (VSa13) and pre-osteoblast (VSa16) phenotype, were used to assess the effect of certain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs; arachidonic (AA), eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids) on cell proliferation, extracellular matrix (ECM) mineralization and gene expression. While all PUFAs promoted morphological changes in both cell lines, VSa16 cell proliferation appeared to be stimulated by PUFAs in a dose dependent manner until 100M, whereas proliferation of VSa13 cells was impaired at concentrations above 10M. AA, EPA and DHA inhibited VSa13 ECM mineralization, alone and in combination, while VSa16 ECM mineralization was only inhibited by AA and EPA. DHA had the opposite effect, increasing mineralization almost by 2 fold. When EFAs were combined, DHA apparently compensated for the inhibitory effect of AA and EPA. Expression of marker genes for bone and lipid metabolisms has been investigated by qPCR and shown to be regulated in pre-osteoblasts exposed to individual PUFAs. Our results show that PUFAs are effectors of fish bone cell lines, altering cell morphology, proliferation and mineralization when added to culture medium. This work also demonstrates the suitability of our in vitro cell systems to get insights into mineralization-related effects of PUFAs in vivo and to evaluate the replacement of fish oils by vegetable oil sources in fish feeds.

Intensive production of tilápias, in cages or net tanks, has been proposed as an alternative to increase fish production, that would generate income and offer animal protein in different tropical and subtropical countries. However, this system of production enriches the aquatic environment with nutrients, principally nitrogen and phosphor derived from the dejections of the metabolism of food and eventual food surpluses consumed by the fishes; the alimentation of the fishes in this production modality is dependent on fish food. The emission of these nutritions in levels above the limit that the system is capable metabolize can provoke a phenomenon called eutrofization, putting in risk the quality of water for public and for fish production activities. In this context the work had as a goal to evaluate the trófico state of the four reservoirs for intensive production of tilapias in net-tanks, in other words, he maximum fish production that the reservoirs are able to hold, keeping the desired quantity of nutrient concentrations in water for public use. The results of the four ecosystems in the Boqueirão de Parelhas reservoir showed that it s possible to have an intensive production of tilapias in net tanks, in this environment the annual average concentration of phosphor, was below the considered critical limits to deflagrate the process of eutrofization in semi-arid regions. The carrying capacity of the Boqueirão de Parelhas reservoir depends on the conversion of the feeding facts and phosphor content in the food but it should vary between 100 and 300 tons per year over a variation in the conversion feeding factor of 1,7 to 2,0:1 and a variation in the P in the food of 0,7 to 0,9%

O uso de probióticos na alimentação dos peixes pode estimular o sistema imunológico e agir na prevenção de enfermidades. O presente estudo avaliou a fisiologia de pirarucu Arapaima gigas após alimentação por 30 dias com dietas enriquecidas com probiótico Bacillus subtilis em 3 níveis de inclusão: 0 (Controle); 0,02 (BS0,02%) e 0,05% (BS0,05%) (triplicata), sendo realizada biometria e coleta de amostras de sangue. Os grupos foram comparados entre si (P<0,05). O peso, comprimento e o índice hepatossomático (IHS) dos pirarucus BS0,05% foram menores que os do Controle. As análises hematológicas e bioquímicas indicaram que BS0,02% promoveu aumento do hematócrito e da albumina, com relação aos demais grupos; e diminuição da concentração de hemoglobina corpuscular média (CHCM) e da glicose plasmática com relação ao Controle. A hemoglobina corpuscular média (HCM) e atividade respiratória dos leucócitos do BS0,05% diminuíram com relação ao Controle. BS0,02% apresentaram redução do número de leucócitos, com relação ao Controle, que refletiu na diminuição de monócitos, neutrófilos, LG-PAS e eosinófilos. Assim, os níveis de B. subtilis avaliados não promoveram crescimento ou alterações fisiológicas nos pirarucus, que indiquem melhoria do seu sistema imune.
