The application of biofloc to fish species has several advantages, including the
enhancement of production by increasing growth performance and survival rate and the …

Complement, an important component of the innate immune system, is comprised of about
35 individual proteins. In mammals, activation of complement results in the generation of …

The complement system plays an essential role in alerting the host of the presence of
potential pathogens, as well as in their clearing. In addition, activation of the complement …

Fish, as the first vertebrate group appearing in evolution after adaptive radiation during the
Devonic period, still represent the most successful and diverse group of vertebrates. This …

This study investigated the effects of dietary curcumin on growth performance, non-specific
immunity, antioxidant capacity and related genes expression of NF-κB and Nrf2 signaling …

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a gene dense region found in all jawed
vertebrates examined to date. The MHC contains a high percentage of immune genes, in …

The recent accumulation of genomic information of many representative animals has made it
possible to trace the evolution of the complement system based on the presence or absence …

Studies on the complement system of bony fish are now finishing a stage of homologue-
hunting identification of the components, unveiling existence of almost all the orthologues of …

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genomic region is composed of a group of
linked genes involved functionally with the adaptive and innate immune systems. The class I …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1) on
growth performance and AFB 1 biotransformation, and hepatic oxidative stress, endoplasmic …
