A rhamnose-binding lectin from sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) plasma agglutinates and opsonizes pathogenic bacteria
2014
Abstract The discovery of rhamnose-binding lectins (RBLs) in teleost fish eggs led to the identification of a novel lectin family characterized by a unique sequence motif and a structural fold, and initially proposed to modulate fertilization. Further studies of the RBL tissue localization and gene organization were also suggestive of role(s) in innate immunity. Here we describe the purification, and biochemical and functional characterization of a novel RBL (DlRBL) from sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) serum. The purified DlRBL had electrophoretic mobilities corresponding to 24 kDa and 100 kDa under reducing and non-reducing conditions, respectively, suggesting that in plasma the DlRBL is p…
La " Dalle à ammonites de Digne " (Réserve Naturelle Géologique de Haute-Provence, France). Étude d'un site fossilifère d'importance patrimoniale.
2011
33 pages; International audience; La " Dalle à ammonites de Digne " est une localité fossilifère très spectaculaire, d'importance tant scientifique que patrimoniale. Ce site exceptionnel est protégé par la Réserve Naturelle Géologique de Haute-Provence (RNGHP). La dalle d'environ 320 m2, qui constitue l'élément essentiel du site, porte plus de 1550 céphalopodes (surtout des ammonites, mais aussi quelques nautiles) et une faune benthique discrète, mais assez diversifiée, principalement constituée de bivalves épibenthiques. La faune d'ammonites, très évidente et spectaculaire, est assez monotone. Elle comprend de très nombreux Arietitidae (Coroniceras) et quelques Schlotheimiidae (Angulaticer…
The erythropoietin and regenerative medicine: a lesson from fish
2009
Background Erythropoietin (EPO), the main haematopoietic growth factor for the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells, is also known for its angiogenic and regenerative properties. Materials and methods In this study, we aimed to test the regenerative effects of EPO administration in an experimental model of Sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) subjected to amputation of the caudal fin. Results Erythropoietin-treated fishes (3000 UI of human recombinant EPO-alpha immediately after cutting and after 15 days) showed an increased growth rate of their fins compared with those untreated (ANOVA variance: P :0 AE01 vs. P :0 AE04). By analysing fin length at established times (1…

Identification of antimicrobial peptides in the gonad of European sea bass males and females
2015
In vertebrates, the gonad is considered an immunologically privileged site as it triggers lower immune responses aiming to avoid germ cell damage. In fish,several studies reported that leucocytes show conditioned immune response and modulate some reproductive functions, allowing the pathogen to establish chronic and latent infections into reproductive organs. In mammals, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have recently been recognised as important effectors in male reproductive tract immunity. In fish, AMPs are increasingly recognized as a critical first line of defence against many pathogens as bacteria, fungi, virus, protozoa and even tumour cells. We have recently determined that the European…

Dietary administration effects of exopolysaccharide from potential probiotic strains on immune and antioxidant status and nutritional value of Europe…
2020
The use of biological immunostimulants is considered a valuable practice to improve culture conditions in aquaculture sector that may help to increase production and maintain healthy environment. We undertook this study in order to evaluate the potential effect of the administration of two exopolysaccharides (EPS) "EPLB" and "EPB" derived from potential probiotic strains on immune and antioxidant status of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) larvae. In order to find out if the EPSs have an effect on the biochemical composition during the trial period, the nutritional value has been evaluated. The results revealed that expression levels of immune-relevant genes (infg, Il1b, Il8, Il6 …
Time-course changes of plasma lipid levels and lipoprotein pattern after feeding in cultured sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax L.
1988
Results of a study of plasma lipids levels and lipoprotein pattern modification during digestion in sea bass indicate that, after feeding, non-esterified fatty acids are rapidly delivered in plasma, while triglycerides reach a maximum concentration only 24 h later. The time-course change of the lipoprotein pattern shows a relationship between their concentration and the lipid class carried.
