Olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus larvae and early juveniles were reared for 43 days after hatching in order to observe the effects of starvation during development and metamorphosis. Morphological, histological and biochemical measurements were made to assess the nutritional condition during growth and starvation from pre-matamorphic through post-metamorphic phases. Two groups of fish were compared ; one with sufficient food supply and one under continuous starvation until death. Among morphometric analyses, both ratios of body height at anus/head height and pre-/post-anal lengths appeared to be sensitive to starvation during which substantial reduction was observed within a day of food deprivation. Histological variables as intestinal and rectal epithelial heights and gall bladder volume changed significantly with onset of starvation. The gut epithelial heights of starving fish decreased with advances in starvation, although they fluctuated during mid-metamorphic phase. In contrast, gall bladder volume increased remarkably soon after starvation. Ontogenetic changes in both gut epithelial height and gall bladder volume were evident, those associated with settlement and/or completion of metamorphosis. Abrupt decrease in the RNA/DNA ratios of starving fish were found right after onset of starvation. Even in the fed fish marked fluctuations in its ratios during metamorphosis were observed, evident by decreasing from late-metamorphic to post-metamorphic stages. These findings suggest that a combination of morphologically and histologically sensitive characteristics, and biochemical measurement could be utilized as a measure to evaluate nutritional condition related to starvation in wild olive flounder larvae and juveniles.

The experiment was conducted for 210 days to determine the effect of feeding, and starvation, and exposure to sodium nitrite ($NaNO_2$) on the survival, physiological changes, hematological parameter, and stress response of Far Eastern catfish, Silurus asotus. The survival of the starved group was lower than that of the fed group during the experiment. Starvation resulted in retardation of growth, which provides an example of fish that failed to continue to grow and remain in a good condition. Blood analyses (cortisol and glucose) showed significant differences of stress response between the fed and starved groups exposed to $NaNO_2$ at the conclusion of the experiment (p<0.05). These results suggest that all nutritional parameters used for starvation and feeding with $NaNO_2$ stress in this experiment appear to be a useful index of nutritional status in Far Eastern catfish.

기아시와 포식시 버들치, Rhynchocypris oxycephalus(Sauvage and Dabry)에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 조직학적 및 생화학적 변화, 체절단면 계측형질 변화 그리고 계측형질 변화에 대하여 조사하였다. 기아에 따른 버들치의 생화학적, 조직학적 변화를 파악하기 위해, 간의 간중량지수, 단백질함량, RNA량 및 DNA량 조사와 더불어 간세포 및 중장 상피세포의 조직학적 조사를 실시한 결과, 기아군은 포식군에 비해 간의 단백질함량, RNA량 및 DNA량에서 높은 값을 보였지만, 먹이 공급 중단은 버들치의 간중량지수, 간세포 핵 크기 및 중장 상피세포 핵 높이에 있어서 감소를 나타내었다. 본 실험에서 조사된 RNA-DNA비는 버들치의 영양상태 파악 지수로 유용하였으며 또한, 버들치 표본 시기에서의 높은 성장 단계인지 혹은 낮은 성장 단계인지의 성장 활성 파악을 가능케 하였다. 본 연구 결과의 자료를 구체적으로 해석 하였으며, 아울러 다수의 생물학적 중요 연관 사항들을 고찰하였다. 버들치 기아시의 영양상태 평가를 위하여 비만도, 내장괴지수, Dressing 비를 비롯한 체횡단 절단면에서의 형태적변화를 조사하였다. 9주간의 기아시 비만도, 내장괴지수 및 대부분의 체횡단 절단면 계측형질들에서의 감소를 보였다(P<0.05). 본 연구 결과, 실험에 적용된 영양성 Parameter는 본 종의 영양상태 파악에 유용한 지표임을 시사한다. 연구 결과를 자세히 해석하여, 버들치에서의 주요 체 절단 형질의 산업성을 논의하였다. 버들치에서의 75일간 기아가 Classical dimension과 Truss dimension에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. Truss dimension인 경우 포식시와 기아시 복강을 비롯한 머리 부위와 몸통부위가 유의하게 증가하였다(P< 0.05). Truss dimension의 꼬리부위 특히, 몸통의 뒷부분이 포식과 기아시 일반적으로 감소하였다. Classical dimension인 경우 포식시 꼬리부위가 감소한 반면, 기아시 몸통부위와 꼬리부위에서의 체고 관련 형질에 연관시 머리부위에서의 형질들이 유의하게 감소하였다. 본 연구 결과 Truss dimension은 Classical dimension을 보완하여 어체의 수직방향 연관 형질 파악도 가능케 하였다. Truss dimension과 Classical dimension인 경우 포식시와 기아시 머리 아랫부위는 거의 영향이 없어, 본 형질은 버들치속 어류의 분류학적측면에서 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다. 버들치에서 체고와 연관된 몸통부위 형질들은 상이한 서식지에 기인된, 다양한 먹이공급 차이의 파악에 유용하리라 사료된다.

We investigated the nutritional status of the melania snail (Semisulcospira gottschei) using RNA/DNA ratios to evaluate the effect of feeding conditions (artificial versus natural) on the reaction times of the snails in a time course following starvation. In the short experiments (48 h), the RNA/DNA ratios of the artificial feeding groups were significantly higher than those of the natural groups. While two RNA/DNA ratio peaks were observed in the artificial food group during daytime, the natural food group showed a higher ratio at night. Under starvation conditions, the RNA content decreased whereas the DNA content was constant. The RNA/DNA ratios of the freshwater snail in both groups dramatically decreased after starvation and remained constant until the end of the experiment. We verified that the RNA/DNA ratio serves as an index of nutritional condition with respect to the effect of dietary differences. These results are important for understanding optimized aquaculture rearing conditions for this important commercial freshwater snail.

Stresses and nutritional starvation are two main external signals for the induction of sex pheromones in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. In an attempt to identify the components involved in transduction of starvation signals, we screened 135 temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants and isolated 6 mutants that induced the pheromone even in the presence of a nitrogen source. These mutants exhibited two distict induction phenotypes: pheromone induction at restrictive but not at permissive temperatures; and pheromone induction at both permissive and restrictive temperatures. The times required for the maximum pheromone induction at the restrictive temperature differed slightly in each mutant. In addition to the pheromone induction phenotype, the ts243 and ts304 mutants exhibited cell-division-cycle defects. The ts304 mutant cells showed an abnormal cytoplasmic DAPI staining pattern. The nucleolus of this mutant seemed to be fragmented, a phenomenon which is typically observed in aged yeast cells. The result of our genetic analysis indicated that the pheromone induction mutants belonged to 6 separate complementation groups. We designated these mutants pws1 to pws6.

To investigate effects of starvation on physiological changes, stress response, and survival of cobitid loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) exposed to sodium nitrite (NaNO₂), a 4-week experiment was conducted. Fewer fish survived in the starved group than those in the fed group during the experiment. Starvation resulted in growth retardation, leading to differences in body length and body depth between fed and starved groups. The fed gorup continued to grow and remained in good condition. Blood chemical analysis (plasma cortisol and glucose) showed significant differences in stress response to nitrite exposure between fed and starved groups (p < 0.05). These results suggest that all parameters employed in this study to assess effects of starvation with NaNO₂ stress are useful information for researching nutritional status in cobitid loach.

A 26 day experiment was conducted to determine the effects of feeding and starvation on the survival, morphology, and histology in chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) fry. We included three experimental groups: starved, fed, and initial. The survival and growth rates were lower in the starved group than in the fed group (P < 0.05). In the starved group, survival began to decline after 16 days, and all fish had died after 26 days. We determined the effects of starvation on the morphometric parameters using the truss and classical dimensions. The dimensions in the head region were larger in the starved group than in the initial and fed groups. In contrast, the truss dimensions of the fed group were larger than those of the initial and starved groups. Starvation reduced the heights of the hepatocyte nuclei and of the intestinal epithelium (P < 0.05). The starved group also showed atrophy of the digestive structures and shrinkage of the foregut and midgut. Starvation led to the degeneration and atrophy of the exocrine pancreas, in which the lumen was markedly diminished and the folds of mucosa were less apparent. The hepatocyte morphology in the starved group was abnormal compared with that of the initial and fed groups, with highly compact, irregularly shrunken nuclei. Melanomacrophages were randomly distributed in the kidneys of the starved group, and their abundance increased rapidly during the experiment. In contrast, neither the initial nor fed group had any melanomacrophages. These results suggest that the nutritional parameters used in this study are useful indices of nutritional status in chum salmon.

The nutritional demand of oyster larva (Crassostrea gigas) were investigated to determine the optimal culture conditions and improve micro-algae utilization. Changes in nutrients and shell growth were examined in fed and 96-h (48 h in late umbone stage) oysters at four larval stages. Shell growth increased significantly in D shape larvae, regardless of feeding variations. No growth was observed in starved larvae, except in shell length of umbone (to 11.9 ${\mu}m$). Fed larvae showed significant growth in all development stages (P < 0.05). During starvation, lipids were most significantly decreased in all larval stages (by 76.8%, 68.3%, 76.3%, and 40.3%, respectively), followed by protein (41.1%, 31.1%, 33.1%, 16.7%) and nitrogen-free extracts (40.8%, 24.3%, 36.9%, 20.1%), Gross energy (kcal/g) consumption in each larval stage was 49.6%, 35.1%, 39.1%, and 20.4%, respectively. Our results indicate that lipids are the most important energy source during the early larval development stages of C. gigas.

This study was conducted to identify the factors associated with weight control and nutritional knowledge of juvenile delinquents. The average heights of the subjects in this study were 172.20 cm (male) and 160.89 cm (female), and the average weights were 66.73 kg (male) and 58.42 kg (female), and the BMIs (Body Mass Index; $kg/m^2$) were 22.46 (male) and 22.54 (female). The results of this study revealed that 41.4% of the subjects were over weight or obese. In addition, there were significant differences in the BMI, satisfaction with body image and perception of body image observed between male and female subjects. Furthermore, female subjects were more experienced at weight control than male students (p<0.001). Additionally, overweight and obese individuals had more experience with weight control than subjects that were not overweight. Moreover, there were significant differences in the reason that subjects took weight control measured between male and female students. Specifically, female subjects practiced weight control due to their appearance (p<0.001). The order of methods by which male subjects attempted to control their weight was exercise>diet control>starvation and for girl student were diet control>starvation>excercise. The nutritional knowledge scores were higher for female subjects than for mele subjects. In addition, the nutritional knowledge scores increased as the BMI value increased and the $father^{\circ}{\emptyset}s$ educational level increased. These results of this study could be useful data to plan and develop nutritional education programs for juvenile delinquents.
