“…[56] Several studies have indicated that exposure of fish to environmental stress can disrupt lipid metabolism, and they observed vacuole accumulation in liver. [53][54][55][56][57] The determination of biomarker at molecular level complements the histopathology study. The first response of an organism to any change-induced environmental stress happens at sub-cellular level and could be detected by means of immunohistochemistry methods.…”

“…As stated by Au (), gill filaments and lamellae provide a large surface area, which is in direct and constant contact with waterborne pollutants, making gills extremely sensitive to toxicant contamination. In addition, they are among the most delicate structures of the teleost body (Saraiva et al, ). According to Jiang et al (), the histopathological alterations in fish gills related to the presence of toxicants have been widely reported as environmental biomarkers, although we agree with Kostić et al () that fish gills respond non‐specifically to pollutants, and various contaminants may cause similar reactions of the gill tissue.…”

“…The gonads were also analysed, taking gender and intersex cases as main endpoints. Secondly, a modified five degree (0–5) severity gradation scale (SGS), which represents the severity of each alteration, was defined (score value), following Bernet et al, () and Saraiva, Costa, Serrão, Cruz, and Eiras (). Each grade represented a certain degree of histological alterations and was categorized as follows: (0)—no histological alterations, which represented normal histological structure; (1)—mild histological alterations; (2)—moderate histological alterations; (3)—pronounced histological alterations; (4)—severe histological alterations and (5)—very severe histological alterations.…”

“…Therefore, histophysiological studies conducted in conjunction with dietary assessments are efficient tools for detecting alterations in tissues and organs that result from changes in diet (Bernet et al, 1999;Baldisserotto, 2013). Moreover, they allow the visualization of biotic and abiotic effects on physiological functions such as nutrition, growth and reproduction (Saraiva et al, 2015, Yancheva et al, 2016. These tools can help build an understanding of the influence of freshwater cage fish farm on wild biota.…”
