Effect of osmotic stress on protein concentration and antioxidant enzymes activity in the organism of nine-spined stickleback Pungitius pungitius (Gasterosteidae) from the White Sea Basin
Abstract:The life cycle of P. pungitius (Linnaeus, 1758) includes migrations from the open sea to coastal and freshwater biotopes which are accompanied by osmotic shock and following oxidative stress in fish. The complex multilevel antioxidant system (AOS) includes low-molecular compounds and specific enzymes and protects cells from reactive oxygen species, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroperoxides generated in excess. To study the response of AOS components to oxidative stress caused by acute salinity changes, nine-spined… Show more
