“…In the present study, red sea bream fed diets supplemented with GMP showed increased lysozyme activity. Similar increases in lysozyme activity with fish fed nucleoside and nucleotide supplemented diets were also reported previously in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) [69], rainbow trout [70], Japanese flounder [36] and red sea bream [24,25]. Bactericidal activity (BA) is one of the most important factors in host resistance against pathogenic bacteria.…”

“…This could have been because the extract nucleotide contents of adenosine monophosphate, inosine monophosphate, uridine monophosphate and adenosine diphosphate are proven to be palatability enhancers and feed attractants (Li & Gatlin, ; Oliva‐Teles et al., ). Furthermore, dietary nucleotide supplementation has also been shown to enhance growth in other fish species such as Atlantic salmon (Burrells, Williams, & Forno, ); grouper, Epinephelus malabaricus (Lin, Wang, & Shiau, ); and rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Tahmasebi‐Kohyani, Keyvanshokooh, Nematollahi, Mahmoudi, & Pasha‐Zanoosi, ). Goda, Mabrouk, Wafa, and El‐Afifi () indicated that feed conversion ratio, dietary protein and energy utilization in diets supplemented with S. cerevisiae were higher than in the diet unsupplemented with S. cerevisiae .…”

Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (average initial weight, 5.91 ± 0.04 g), were fed four isonitrogenous and isolipidic diets for 84 days. The diets contained four levels of yeast extract (CW‐I) rich in nucleotides and β‐glucan: 0 (control), 5, 10 and 15 g/kg diet. Weight gain increased linearly, whereas the feed conversion ratio decreased linearly with increasing levels of yeast extract. The diet containing 15 g/kg yeast extract resulted in significantly better (p < 0.05) specific growth rates and protein efficiency ratios. No significant (p > 0.05) differences were found in dry matter, protein, lipid or ash contents or in haematocrit, haemoglobin or total protein contents among the treatment groups. Blood sample profiles showed an increase in white and red blood cells in fish fed 15 g/kg yeast extract in comparison with the other treatment groups. The fish fed the diets with 10 and 15 g/kg yeast extract had significantly higher albumin and globulin levels than the control group, whereas decreased levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were noted in fish fed the diet with 15 g/kg yeast extract. Histological analysis of the liver and intestine in fish fed the control diet showed a slightly abnormal structure in these organs. Only in fish fed diets supplemented with the highest amount of yeast extract was the structure of the hepatocytes and villi almost unchanged, which indicated that the yeast nucleotides could improve hepatic function and promote liver and gut restoration.

“…They play a variety of physiological and biochemical roles in certain organisms such as fish (Li and Gatlin, ) and shellfish (Shankar et al., ). Although most animals can synthesize NT, recent research has shown that dietary nucleotide supplementation improves growth performance (Burrells et al., ; Borda et al., ; Li and Gatlin, ), immune gene expression and immune response (Low et al., ; Tahmasebi‐Kohyani et al., ), disease resistance (Burrells et al., ; Shankar et al., ), stress responses (Tahmasebi Kohyani et al., ), and intestinal morphology (Burrells et al., ; Cheng et al., ) in different aquatic species (Burrells et al., ; reviewed in Li and Gatlin, ). Striped catfish , Pangasianodon hypophthalmus (Sauvage, 1878), is an endangered fish species of inland waters in south‐east Asian countries, which has also been introduced to such other countries as Singapore, the Philippines, USA, and Iran as a cultivated food fish or as an ornamental hobby species (Vidthayanon and Hogan, ).…”

Summary The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary nucleotides (NT) on growth performance, immune responses, and intestinal morphology of striped catfish, Pangasianodon hypophthalmus. Different levels of NT (0, 0.25. 0.5, 0.75, and 1% weight per weight, WW−1) were used in the basal diet and then randomly allocated to triplicate groups of fish with an average initial weight of 1.52 ± 0.11 g for 10 weeks. Nucleotide supplementation did not improve growth parameters significantly (P > 0.05). Feeding fish with a NT‐containing diet significantly improved ACH50 activity and IgM levels in comparison to the control group (P < 0.05). The dietary NT (P < 0.05) affected the intestinal morphology, whereby the folds and enterocyte heights in the mid‐intestine were significantly increased compared to the control group (P < 0.05), while the microvilli length was not affected. The results indicate that feeding striped catfish with commercial NT have significant effects on the immune parameters and intestinal morphology of catfish and that the best NT levels are 0.25 and 0.5%.
