Abstract Background: Soy isoflavone and soy saponin are heat-stable glycosides present in soybean meal, which is the major factor restrict soy protein using in aquatic feed. This study is aimed to conduct that dietary soy isoflavone and soy saponin on growth performance, intestinal structure, intestinal immunity and gut microbiota community on rice field eel (Monopterus albus), and revealed its mechanism.Results: In current study, dietary 1g/kg soy isoflavone, 2g/kg soy saponin and their mixed feed decreased growth of M. albus. Dietary 1g/kg soy isoflavone significantly increased serum alkaline phosphatase (P < 0.05), dietary 2g/kg soy saponin remarkably declined intestinal immunoglobulin M (P < 0.05). Dietary 1g/kg soy isoflavone and 2g/kg soy saponin mixed feed significantly decreased intestinal complement 3, complement 4 and immunoglobulin M, amounts of intestinal goblet cells per root and shannon of gut microbiota (P < 0.05). Dietary 1g/kg soy isoflavone, 2g/kg soy saponin and their mixed feed down regulated intestinal tight junction protein (Interleukin-12, Interleukin-15, Tight junction protein ZO-2-like) and anti-inflammatory (Interleukin-10, Transforming growth factor beta 2) mRNA expression, up regulated pri-inflammatory factors (Interleukin-1 β, Interleukin-6, Interleukin-8, Interleukin-12 and Interleukin-15) mRNA expression.Conclusion: Based on the current results, dietary soy isoflavone and soy saponin could damage the intestinal structure and changes gut bacteria community of M. albus, and destroyed the intestinal barrier, eventually induced intestinal inflammatory occurring, soy isoflavone and soy saponin mixed feed has more serious effect than they single supplemented.

An eight-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary andrographolide on the growth performance, antioxidant capacity in the liver, intestinal inflammatory response and microbiota of Monopterus albus. A total of 900 health fish (25.00 ± 0.15 g) were randomly divided into five groups: AD1 (the basal diet) as the control, and AD2, AD3, AD4 and AD5 groups, which were fed the basal diet supplemented with 75, 150, 225 and 300 mg/kg andrographolide, respectively. The results showed that compared with the control group, dietary andrographolide supplementation (1) significantly increased trypsin and lipase activities in the intestine, and increased the weight gain rate but not significantly; (2) significantly increased the levels of glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione (GSH) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and the content of in the liver; significantly decreased the contents of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA); remarkably upregulated the Nrf2, SOD1, GSTK and GSTO mRNA levels in the liver; downregulated the Keap1 mRNA level; (3) significantly increased the villi length and goblet cell numbers in the intestine, remarkably upregulated the Occludin mRNA level in the intestine, downregulated the Claudin-15 mRNA level; (4) remarkably upregulated the IL-10, TGF-β1 and TGF-β3 mRNA levels in the intestine; downregulated the IL-12β and TLR-3 mRNA levels; (5) significantly decreased the richness and diversity of the intestinal microbioma, increased the percentages of Fusobacteria and Firmicutes and significantly decreased the percentages of Cyanobacteria and Proteobacteria. In conclusion, these results showed that dietary low-dose andrographolide (75 and 150 mg/kg) promoted growth and antioxidant capacity, regulated the intestinal microbioma, enhanced intestinal physical and immune barrier function in rice field eel.

Significant Difference

The effects of stocking density on various growth parameters and sex reversal in the rice field eel (Monopterus albus) were investigated by evaluating steroid hormone, the gonadosomatic index (GSI) and sex ratio. Fish (mean initial weight of 9.88 ± 0.70 g) were stocked to densities of 4, 20, 36, 52, 68, 84 or 100 fish/m2 in cages (2 m × 1 m × 1.5 m) in a pond, with five replicate cages for each density. Fish were fed for 420 days on a formulated isocaloric diet containing 40.22% crude protein and 12.86 MJ/kg. Serum E2 and T concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassays. There were no significant differences in final bodyweight (FBW) and daily weight gain (DWG) for fish in the groups containing less than 52 fish/m2, while FBW and DWG were significant lower in groups at 68 fish/m2 or more. Specific growth rate (SGR) differed significantly between the 84 and 100 fish/m2 groups compared with the 4, 20 and 36 fish/m2 groups. There was no significant difference in SGR in groups containing less than 84 fish/m2. There were no significant difference between the 4 and 20 fish/m2 groups in net yield (NY), but these groups did differ significantly from the other groups. The final condition factors of fish stocked at 84 or 100 fish/m2 were significantly lower than fish stocked at the other densities. E2 and T hormone concentrations declined as stocking density increased, while GSI values increased initially but then reduced with increasing stocking density. Female ratio and survival decreased with increasing stocking density. The proportion of male fish was significantly greater in the three highest stocking density groups. Therefore, high stocking density may promote sex change from female to male in M. albus.
