Popis: | The thermal stability of the Antarctic Ocean raises questions concerning the metabolic plasticity of Antarctic notothenioids to changes in the environmental temperature. In this study, Notothenia rossii survived 90 days at 8 degrees C, and their condition factor level was maintained. However, their hepatosomatic (0.29x) index decreased, indicating a decrease in nutrient storage as a result of changes in the energy demands to support survival. At 8 degrees C, the plasma calcium, magnesium, cholesterol, and triglyceride concentrations decreased, whereas the glucose (1.91x) and albumin (1.26x) concentrations increased. The main energy substrate of the fish changed from lipids to glucose due to a marked increase in lactate dehydrogenase activity, as demonstrated by an increase in anaerobic metabolism. Moreover, malate dehydrogenase activity increased in all tissues, suggesting that fish acclimated at 8 degrees C exhibit enhanced gluconeogenesis. The aerobic demand increased only in the liver due to an increase (2.23x) in citrate synthase activity. Decreases in the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione-Stransferase to levels that are most likely sufficient at 8 degrees C were observed, establishing a new physiological activity range for antioxidant defense. Our findings indicate that N. rossii has some compensatory mechanisms that enabled its long-term survival at 8 degrees C.
