어류의 심전도에 대한 연구는 Oets (1950)가 뱀장어 (Anguilla vulgaris)의 체표면에 전극을 부착하여 심전도를 기록한 것을 시작으로, Otis (1957)가 금붕어(Carassius auratus)의 체내에 전극을 삽입하여 수중에서 어류의 심전도를 조사한 후부터 여러 자극에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. (중략)

G Protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediating wide ranges of physiological responses is one of the most attractive targets for drug development. Rhodopsin, a dim-light photoreceptor, has been extensively used as a model system for structural and functional study of GPCRs. Fish have rhodopsin finely-tuned to their habitats where the intensity and the wavelength of lights are changed depending on its water-depth. To study the detailed molecular characteristics of GPCR architecture and to understand the fishery light-sensing system, genes encoding rod opsins were isolated from fishes living under different photic environments. Full-length rod opsin genes were obtained by combination of PCR amplification and DNA walking strategy of genomic DNA isolated from olive flounder, P. olivaceus, Japanese eel, A. japonica, and Common carp C. carpio. Deduced amino acid sequences showed a typical feature of rod opsins including the sites for Schiffs base formation (Lys296) and its counter ion (Glu113), disulfide formation (Cys110 and Cys187), and palmitoylation (Cys322 and Cys323) although Cys322 is replaced by Phe in Japanese eel. Comparison of opsins by amino acid sequence alignment indicated the closest similarity between P. olivaceus and H. hippoglossus (94%), A. japonica and A. anguilla (98%), and C. carpio and C. auratus (95%), respectively.

The effects of suspended solids size on culture water quality were determined in a commercial recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) for Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica. The particulate phase of the culture water was serially divided into six size fractions using 300, 200, 100, 75, 45, and 26 ${\mu}m$ pore size stainless sieves. The total, dissolved, and particulate nitrogen and phosphorus, and suspended solids for each fraction were determined. The concentration ranges in the fractions were: total nitrogen, 164-148 mg $L^{-1}$; total phosphorus, 20.4-15.5 mg $L^{-1}$; and total suspended solids, 8.1-6.1 mg $L^{-1}$. The concentration of total nitrogen and total phosphorus decreased significantly (P<0.05) with a 26 ${\mu}m$ and 200 ${\mu}m$ filter pore size, respectively. Nutrients from dissolved organic substances were much higher than from particulates. Analysis of particle size fractionation and its effects on water quality is useful to estimate removal efficiencies of a commercial effluent screening device for solid management and development of solid removal systems.

Edwardsiella tarda, the causative organism of Edwardsiellosis, was isolated from the water and the eel, Anguilla japonica of the recirculating eel culture ponds in 1988. E. tarda was always isolated from the water of eel culture ponds in the number of log 2.30~log 4.78 CFU/$m{\ell}$ without distinguishable seasonal characteristics. The counts of isolated E. tarda were changed with the health condition of the eel, i. e., a number of E. tarda were isolated from all checked organs, intestine contents, liver, spleen and kidney of the diseased eel, however, it was hardly isolated from spleen and kidney of the healthy eel. The isolates were classified according to o-agglutinating test into three serotypes (I, II, III). There were no distinct differences in the composition of the serotypes between intestine contents of eel and pond water samples(I, 52.4~53.3% ; II, 20.0~23.8% ; III, 4.8~6.7%). Serotype I was ascendant in the spleen(66.7%) and the kidney(73.7%) samples. By experimental challenge, most of serotype I proved highly virulent to eel in comparison with the other serotypes tested.

In the present paper, the immunostimulatory effects of Korean mistletoe (Viscum album Coloratum) on the non-specific immune responses of Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) were examined. Eel were innoculated with mistletoe, Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA), or phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) as a control into their peritoneal cavities. The number of nitrobule tetrazolium (NBT)-positive cells in the head kidney of fish was significantly increased by the second day post-injection of mistletoe. ROI products were more enhanced in mistletoe-injected fish kidney leucocytes than in FCA-injected ones. The level of lysozyme activity detected in the serum of fish 2 days after injection with mistletoe was also significantly higher than that found in the serum of the control fish. The appropriate concentration of mistletoe to induce the highest level of serum lysozyme activity was revealed to 1000${\mu}g$/200 g of fish. In phagocytic activity assay, mistletoe-sensitized eel kidney phagocytes captured more zymosan than did the control fish. Korean mistletoe appeared to be a good activator of the non-specific immune responses of Japanese eel.

The eels, Anguilla japonica, were reared in a tank with daily feeding for up to 97 days, and otoliths were regularly collected for the observation of their microstructures. Microscopic observation of the thin-sectioned otolith under dark field provided significant information on daily growth increments as well as the difference in visual contrast shown by the increments. Clearly defined elver mark formed during the metamorphosis from leptocephalus to the elver can be considered as the origin of the age for the sedentary yellow eel in continental water. The close correspondence between the number of increments outside elver mark and chronological age in days from the beginning of feeding indicates that increment deposition on a daily basis was initiated with the start of feeding for the sedentary yellow eel. Either 7 or 14 daily growth increments were grouped together into 2 alternative units, each distinguished by prominent checks or by visual contrast. The absence of any apparent environmental variations with 7 or 14 day period in the reared tank implies that the phase of the moon could be a zeitgeber for the endogenous rhythm.

Quaternary ammonium compounds(QACs)가 뱀장어의 면역반응에 미치는 영향을 측정하기 위해서 뱀장어의 혈액으로부터 림프구를 분리하여 증식능을 측정하였으며 또한 신장으로부터 탐식세포를 분리하여 탐식능, pinocytosis 및 superoxide anion활성능 등을 측정하였다. 림프구의 증식능은 mytogen(T-cell mitogen: ConA and PHA, B-cell mitogen: LPS) 및 QACs처리농도에 따라 별다른 차이를 보이지 않았다. 한편 신장 유래의 대식세포의 세균살해능은 QACs첨가농도에 따라 유의성 있게 증가되었다. 이러한 결과는 QACs이 작동대식세포로의 분화 및 활성을 촉진시켜서 탐식능, pinocytes 및 superoxide생성 등의 분비를 증가시킨 것으로 사료된다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 QACs가 어체의 면역반응에 관여하는 작용기전은 면역작동세포의 수를 증가시키기보다는 세포의 기능활성을 증강시킴을 알 수 있다.

Dermatan sulfate (DS) was isolated from eel skin (Anguilla japonica) bv actinase and endonuclease digeslions followed by ${\beta}$-elimination reaction and DEAE-Sephacel chromatography. DS was a major glycosaminoglycan in eel skin with 88% of the total uronic acid. The content of IdoA2S$\alpha$1longrightarrow4GalNAc4S sequence in eel skin. which is known to be a binding site to heparin cofactor II. was two times higher than that of dermatan sulfate from porcine skin. The anti-lla activity of eel skin dermatan sulfate mediated through heparin cofactor ll(NCL) was 25 units/mg. whereas DS from porcine skin shows 23.2 units/mg. The average molecular weight was determined as 14 kDa by gel chromatography on a TSKgel G3000SWXL column. Based on H1 NMR spectroscopy. we suggest that 3-sulfated and/or 2.3-sulfated ldoA residues are present in the chain.
