Osmoregulatory Ability

Chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) fry weighing about 1 g maintained plasma Na+ concentrations at 134–140 mmol/L during seaward migration in the Otsuchi River. The plasma Na+ level increased slightly in the estuary, and reached 150–160 mmol/L in the fry caught in the bay. On direct transfer from freshwater to seawater, the plasma Na+ concentrations of the fry weighing 0.4–2.3 g increased markedly after 1 h and reached a maximum after 3–12 h. The fry of < 1.4 g attained sea water-acclimated plasma Na+ level of 156 mmol/L within 24 h after transfer, whereas fry of 1.8–2.3 g failed to adapt to seawater within 24 h. When seawater adaptability of fry of different lots was examined simultaneously in late April, 83–109 d after hatch, the smaller fry adjusted their plasma Na+ levels more easily than the larger fry: the smallest fry attained seawater level after 12 h without showing any peak. Changes in seawater adaptability of the same lots of fry were also followed until 5 mo after hatching, and the osmoregulatory ability of the fry in seawater decreased gradually with an increase in body weight or in the time spent in freshwater.Key words: chum salmon fry, seaward migration, plasma Na+ concentration, seawater adaptability, Oncorhynchus keta

Steelhead trout in the smolt phase of development adapted to sea water (salinity 22–24 parts per thousand) more rapidly and with less extensive departures from regulated conditions of water–electrolyte balance than did the larger post-smolts. By contrast, the extent and duration of the corresponding changes accompanying adaptation of juvenile chum salmon to sea water varied inversely with size. The data are discussed in relation to the distinction between smolting and non-smolting salmonid species.

The proliferation of neural stem cells (NSCs)/neuronal precursor cells (NPCs) and the occurrence of postmitotic neuroblasts in the mesencephalic tegmentum of intact juvenile chum salmon, Oncorhynchus keta, and at 3 days after a tegmental injury, were studied by immunohistochemical labeling. BrdU+ constitutive progenitor cells located both in the periventricular matrix zone and in deeper subventricular and parenchymal layers of the brain are revealed in the tegmentum of juvenile chum salmon. As a result of traumatic damage to the tegmentum, the proliferation of resident progenitor cells of the neuroepithelial type increases. Nestin-positive and vimentin-positive NPCs and granules located in the periventricular and subventricular matrix zones, as well as in the parenchymal regions of the tegmentum, are revealed in the mesencephalic tegmentum of juvenile chum salmon, which indicates a high level of constructive metabolism and constitutive neurogenesis. The expression of vimentin and nestin in the extracellular space, as well as additionally in the NSCs and NPCs of the neuroepithelial phenotype, which do not express nestin in the control animals, is enhanced during the traumatic process. As a result of the proliferation of such cells in the post-traumatic period, local Nes+ and Vim+ NPCs clusters are formed and become involved in the reparative response. Along with the primary traumatic lesion, which coincides with the injury zone, additional Nes+ and Vim+ secondary lesions are observed to form in the adjacent subventricular and parenchymal zones of the tegmentum. In the lateral tegmentum, the number of doublecortin-positive cells is higher compared to that in the medial tegmentum, which determines the different intensities and rates of neuronal differentiation in the sensory and motor regions of the tegmentum, respectively. In periventricular regions remote from the injury, the expression of doublecortin in single cells and their groups significantly increases compared to that in the damage zone.
