A sufficient and timely energy supply is a prerequisite for the operation of iono-and
osmoregulatory mechanisms in fish. Measurements of whole-fish or isolated-gill (or other …

▪ Abstract The ability of animals to survive food deprivation is clearly of considerable survival
value. Unsurprisingly, therefore, all animals exhibit adaptive biochemical and physiological …

Extended bouts of fasting are ingrained in the ecology of many organisms, characterizing
aspects of reproduction, development, hibernation, estivation, migration, and infrequent …

A study was conducted to assess the particular metabolic strategies of the European sea
bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) to face a short starvation period and subsequent refeeding, and …

The present study examines the particular metabolic strategies of the sturgeon Acipenser
naccarii in facing a period of prolonged starvation (72 days) and subsequent refeeding (60 …

Fish have provided essential information about the structure, biosynthesis, evolution, and
function of insulin (INS) as well as about the structure, evolution, and mechanism of action of …

Growth, haematological (haematocrit), biochemical (serum cortisol and glucose), and non-
specific immune (lysozyme, serum haemolytic and haemagglutinating activities, extracellular …

We evaluated the effects of starvation and refeeding on digestive enzyme activities in
juvenile roach, Rutilus rutilus caspicus. Fish were divided into four feeding groups (mean …

The influence of high stocking density (HSD) and food deprivation was assessed on
carbohydrate metabolism of several tissues of gilthead sea bream Sparus auratus for 14 …

The particular metabolic strategies of the common dentex (Dentex dentex) to face a period of
prolonged starvation and subsequent refeeding were assessed. Plasma metabolites …
