Oral administration enhances directly mucosal immune system in intestine of olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus).

Aquaculture is notably vulnerable to diseases, with Edwardsiella tarda causing significant mortality across various commercially important fish species in both freshwater and marine environments. In the aquaculture industry, sustainable disease control hinges on the effective development of vaccines. Oral vaccines present an appealing approach to immunization in fish due to their ease of antigen administration, reduced stress compared to non-oral delivery methods, and their potential applicability to both small and large finfish species. In mammals, the exposure of mucosal surfaces to antigens results in the secretion of antigen-specific IgA at these locations. Mammals have a common mucosal immune system, in which stimulation of one epithelium can also give rise to specific IgA or IgM responses in other mucosal organs. Mucosal immunoglobulins are particularly important in developing vaccines that provide mucosal immunity. However, it remains unclear whether fish share a common mucosal system. Moreover, neither Peyer's patches nor intestinal lymph nodes were identified. Nevertheless, oral vaccination remains an attractive method for inducing immunity. We investigated whether the activation of the mucosal immune response was induced by direct injection of the antigen. After oral antigen administration, antigen-specific antibody titers increased in the experimental group (E. tarda FKC vaccine). In the challenge experiment, the cumulative survival rate was 72% (E. tarda). This suggests that oral administration of antigens can activate intestinal mucosal immunity in flounders. Additionally, these results help understand the intestinal mucosal immune system of teleost fish. In the future, research on the signaling mechanisms of these genes is expected to provide helpful information for developing vaccine adjuvants.

Decarboxylation of Hydroxybenzoic Acids to Phenol via Deep Eutectic Solvents.

The development of greener and more sustainable synthesis processes for manufacturing commodity chemicals is of great importance. The majority of current phenol production methods involve harsh reaction conditions with high energy consumption, causing severe environmental pollution. In this study, we present a novel approach for the decarboxylation of hydroxybenzoic acids (HBAs) to phenol using a choline chloride-urea (ChCl-urea) deep eutectic solvent (DES). Our study reveals the remarkable dual performance of ChCl-urea both as a catalyst and solvent for the decarboxylation of HBA, resulting in a high phenol yield (94 mol%) under mild reaction conditions. The proposed reaction pathway, established through a combination of experiments and computational simulations, enhances our understanding of this process. The recyclability of the DES system during decarboxylation was also assessed. Our findings demonstrate that the integration of DES into conventional chemical processes can pave the way for sustainable manufacturing, exemplifying a novel approach for producing phenol from abundant natural resources using designer solvents.

Assembly-Driven Oxidative Degradation of Melarsomine Triggered by Cyanuric Acid.

Molecular self-assembly can trigger or regulate specific chemical reactions that would otherwise be infeasible when molecules exist individually. Supramolecular structures can significantly affect the rate of chemical reactions; therefore, optimizing supramolecular structures by manipulating intermolecular interactions is crucial for achieving the desired reactivity. Melamine is known to form hydrogen bonds with cyanuric acid, resulting in the formation of a supramolecular network. Melarsomine, an effective medication for heartworm treatment in dogs, contains a melamine moiety. It has yet to be studied how the chemical stability of melarsomine is affected by its interaction with other molecules. Herein, we report the formation of a two-dimensional supramolecular network between melarsomine and cyanuric acid via hydrogen bonds. This network structure captures dissolved oxygen in an aqueous solution, accelerating the oxidative degradation of melarsomine.

Ferredoxin: A novel antimicrobial peptide derived from the black scraper (Thamnaconus modestus).

Ferredoxin (FDX) is a highly conserved iron-sulfur protein that participates in redox reactions and plays an important role as an electron transport protein in biological processes. However, its function in marine fish remains unclear. We identified two ferrodoxin proteins, FDX1 and FDX2, from black scraper (Thamnaconus modestus) to confirm their genetic structures and expression profiles and to investigate their antimicrobial activity properties by fabricating them with antimicrobial peptides based on sequences. The two TmFDXs mRNAs were most abundant in peripheral blood leukocytes of healthy T. modestus. After artificial infection with Vibrio anguillarum, a major pathogen of T. modestus, TmFDX1 mRNA was significantly upregulated in the gills, heart, intestines, kidneys, liver, and spleen, but was consistently downregulated in the brain. The expression levels of TmFDX2 mRNA were significantly upregulated in the heart, intestines, kidneys, liver, and spleen; however, no significant changes in expression were observed in the brain or gills. Based on the 2Fe-2S ferredoxin-type iron-sulfur-binding domain sequence, two peptides (pFDX1 and pFDX2) were synthesized. The bactericidal effect, biofilm formation inhibition, and gDNA-binding activity of these peptides were investigated. These findings highlight the potential as a natural peptide candidate for TmFDXs.

The reprotoxic adverse side effects of neurogenic and neuroprotective drugs: current use of human organoid modeling as a potential alternative to preclinical models.

The management of neurological disorders heavily relies on neurotherapeutic drugs, but notable concerns exist regarding their possible negative effects on reproductive health. Traditional preclinical models often fail to accurately predict reprotoxicity, highlighting the need for more physiologically relevant systems. Organoid models represent a promising approach for concurrently studying neurotoxicity and reprotoxicity, providing insights into the complex interplay between neurotherapeutic drugs and reproductive systems. Herein, we have examined the molecular mechanisms underlying neurotherapeutic drug-induced reprotoxicity and discussed experimental findings from case studies. Additionally, we explore the utility of organoid models in elucidating the reproductive complications of neurodrug exposure. Have discussed the principles of organoid models, highlighting their ability to recapitulate neurodevelopmental processes and simulate drug-induced toxicity in a controlled environment. Challenges and future perspectives in the field have been addressed with a focus on advancing organoid technologies to improve reprotoxicity assessment and enhance drug safety screening. This review underscores the importance of organoid models in unraveling the complex relationship between neurotherapeutic drugs and reproductive health.

Dried blood spot sampling coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass for simultaneous quantitative analysis of multiple cardiovascular drugs.

Dried Blood Spots (DBS) revolutionize therapeutic drug monitoring using LC-MS for the precise quantification of cardiovascular drugs (CDs), enabling personalized treatment adapted to patient-specific pharmacokinetics with minimal invasiveness. This study aims to achieve simultaneous quantification of eight CDs in DBS, overcoming physicochemical challenges. A two-step protein precipitation method was used for simple and precise sample preparation. The drugs were analyzed using LC-MS/MS in ESI positive-ion mode, showing high sensitivity and linearity, with a correlation coefficient (r2) exceeding 0.999, after being separated on a reversed-phase chromatography by gradient elution of DW-acetonitrile containing 0.1 % formic acid + 2 mM ammonium formate. The validation results indicate good selectivity, with no observed matrix effect and carry-over. The intra- and inter-day accuracy and precision were within 6 % for most drugs, except for digoxin and deslanoside at low therapeutic levels where the variation was within 20 %. Stability tests confirmed suitable DBS handling and storage conditions, indicating drug stability for at least 30 days at room temperature. The analysis of whole spot has demonstrated remarkable precision and reliability in all target drugs. The analysis of 3 mm internal diameter discs, punched in and out of DBS, presumed to contain 3 µL of blood, showed acceptable accuracy for most drugs, with less polar drugs like digoxin and deslanoside showing lower accuracy, indicating a need for further correction due to non-uniform drug distribution. Consequently, the developed LC-MS/MS method enables the quantification of multiple CDs in a single DBS analysis, while suggesting the potential for accuracy-based analysis.

Melatonin and resveratrol alleviate molecular and metabolic toxicity induced by Bisphenol A in endometrial organoids.

Bisphenol A (BPA), a widespread environmental contaminant, poses concerns due to its disruptive effects on physiological functions of the uterine endometrium. In contrast, melatonin (MT) and Resveratrol (RSV) are under scrutiny for their potential protective roles against BPA-induced damage. For the efficacy and ethical concerns in the animal test, endometrial organoids, three-dimensional models mimicking endometrium, serve as crucial tools for unraveling the impact of environmental factors on reproductive health. This study aimed to comprehensively characterize the morphological, molecular and metabolic responses of porcine endometrial organoids to BPA and assess the potential protective effects of MT and RSV. Porcine uteri were prepared, digested with collagenase, mixed with Matrigel, and incubated at 38°C with 5 % CO2. Passaging involved dissociation through trypsin-EDTA treatment and subculturing. The culture medium was refreshed every 2-3 days. To investigate the environmental impact on reproductive health, endometrial organoids were treated with BPA (0.5 µM), MT (with/without BPA at 0.1 µM), and/or RSV (10 µM). Various molecular screening using gene expression, western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, and metabolites profiling were assessed the effects of BPA, MT, and RSV in terms of cell viability, morphology, reproductivity, and metabolism alteration in the endometrial organoids. As expected, BPA induced structural and molecular disruptions in organoids, affecting cytoskeletal proteins, Wnt/ß-catenin signaling, and epithelial/mesenchymal markers. It triggered oxidative stress and apoptotic pathways, altered miRNA expression, and disrupted the endocannabinoid system. The level of glucose, galactose, and essential amino acids were increased or decreased by approximately 1.5-3 times in BPA-treated groups compared to the control groups (p-value < 0.05), indicating metabolic changes. Moreover, MT and RSV treated groups exhibited protective effects, mitigating BPA-induced disruptions across multiple pathways. For the first time, our study models endometrial organoids, advancing understanding of environmental impacts on reproductive health.

Simultaneous quantification of 11 antiepileptic drugs using limited isotope-labeled internal standards in LC-MS/MS: An accuracy assessment.

This study aims to establish an LC-MS/MS method to simultaneously analyze 11 antiepileptic drugs with a particular focus on maintaining accuracy while reducing the number of isotope-labeled internal standards employed for cost-effectiveness. By applying a water/acetonitrile gradient elution containing 0.1 % formic acid and 2 mM ammonium formate as the mobile phase, optimal sensitivity for the target drugs could be obtained in positive ESI mode in LC-MS/MS. After optimizing various extraction techniques, extraction with 70 % acetonitrile was selected as it provided good recoveries (>93 %) for all targets without matrix effects. Accuracies within 3 % were achieved from the combination of six internal standards, while accuracies of 5 % and 10 % were obtained by reducing the number of internal standards to four and two, respectively, for more economical analysis. The accuracy of the established method was maintained in hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and hyperalbuminemia sera, suggesting that it can be successfully applied to individual serum samples with various properties.

The secreted protein Amuc_1409 from Akkermansia muciniphila improves gut health through intestinal stem cell regulation.

Akkermansia muciniphila has received great attention because of its beneficial roles in gut health by regulating gut immunity, promoting intestinal epithelial development, and improving barrier integrity. However, A. muciniphila-derived functional molecules regulating gut health are not well understood. Microbiome-secreted proteins act as key arbitrators of host-microbiome crosstalk through interactions with host cells in the gut and are important for understanding host-microbiome relationships. Herein, we report the biological function of Amuc_1409, a previously uncharacterised A. muciniphila-secreted protein. Amuc_1409 increased intestinal stem cell (ISC) proliferation and regeneration in ex vivo intestinal organoids and in vivo models of radiation- or chemotherapeutic drug-induced intestinal injury and natural aging with male mice. Mechanistically, Amuc_1409 promoted E-cadherin/ß-catenin complex dissociation via interaction with E-cadherin, resulting in the activation of Wnt/ß-catenin signaling. Our results demonstrate that Amuc_1409 plays a crucial role in intestinal homeostasis by regulating ISC activity in an E-cadherin-dependent manner and is a promising biomolecule for improving and maintaining gut health.

Stabilin-2 mediated apoptotic cell phagocytosis induces interleukin-10 expression by p38 and Pbx1 signaling.

Apoptotic cell death occurs under normal physiological conditions, such as development, tissue remodeling, and inflammation. Appropriate removal of apoptotic cells by phagocytes and the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10 are important mechanisms for maintaining tissue homeostasis. Apoptotic cell phagocytosis is mediated by several phosphatidylserine recognition receptors on non-professional or professional phagocytes, such as neighboring epithelial cells or macrophages. Stabilin-2 is reported as a phosphatidylserine recognition receptor for apoptotic cell phagocytosis, and its downstream signaling pathway for cytoskeletal rearrangement for phagocytosis is well known. However, the mechanisms for stabilin-2-mediated IL-10 production has not yet been reported. In this study, we aimed to investigate stabilin-2 receptor-mediated IL-10 transcription regulation signaling pathway.

Dynamic insights into infection risk over time in two-stage implant-based breast reconstruction: a retrospective cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Infections following postmastectomy implant-based breast reconstruction (IBR) can compromise surgical outcomes and lead to significant morbidity. This study aimed to discern the timing of infections in two-stage IBR and associated risk factors. METHOD: A review of electronic health records was conducted on 1096 breasts in 1058 patients undergoing two-stage IBR at Seoul National University Hospital (2015-2020). Infections following the first-stage tissue expander (TE) insertion and second-stage TE exchange were analyzed separately, considering associated risk factors. RESULTS: Over a median follow-up of 53.5 months, infections occurred in 2.9% (32/1096) after the first stage and 4.1% (44/1070) after the second stage. Infections following the first-stage procedure exhibited a bimodal distribution across time, while those after the second-stage procedure showed a unimodal pattern. When analyzing risk factors for infection after the first-stage procedure, axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) was associated with early (≤7 weeks) infection, while both ALND and obesity were independent predictors of late (>7 weeks) infection. For infections following the second-stage procedure, obesity, postmastectomy radiotherapy, a history of expander infection, ALND, and the use of textured implants were identified as independent risk factors. Postmastectomy radiotherapy was related to non-salvaged outcomes after infection following both stages. CONCLUSION: Infections following first and second-stage IBR exhibit distinct timelines reflecting different pathophysiology. Understanding these timelines and associated risk factors will inform patient selection for IBR and aid in tailored postoperative surveillance planning. These findings contribute to refining patient suitability for IBR and optimizing personalized postoperative care strategies.

Sex differences in the impact of body mass index on outcomes of coronary artery disease in Koreans.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is often considered a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, but recent studies have shown conflicting results regarding the effect of BMI on the prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between BMI and clinical outcomes of CAD according to sex in a Korean population. METHODS: A total of 3476 patients with a significant CAD who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled. Patients were classified as follows according to BMI using the Asia-Pacific cutoff points: underweight (<18.5 kg/m 2 ), normal weight (18.5-22.9 kg/m 2 ), overweight (23.0-24.9 kg/m 2 ) and obese (≥25 kg/m 2 ) patients. Underweight and normal weight patients were further categorized into the lower BMI group, whereas overweight and obese patients were categorized into the higher BMI group. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. RESULTS: Among women, the higher BMI group showed poor clinical features in the prevalence of hypertension and chest pain presentation, and among men, the higher BMI group had a significantly lower rate of chronic renal failure. At the end of the follow-up period (median 53.5 months), the all-cause mortality rate was lower in the higher BMI group in men, and cardiovascular death and stroke rates were significantly lower in the higher BMI group in women. CONCLUSION: In Korean CAD patients treated with PCI, inverse correlations were observed between the clinical outcomes and BMI, but there were differences between men and women.

Evaluation of the diagnostic assays detecting red sea bream iridovirus infection at different severity levels.

Red sea bream iridovirus (RSIV) is a highly contagious viral infection that affects various fish species and poses a significant threat to the global aquaculture industry. Thus, accurate and timely diagnosis is paramount for sustainable management of fish health. This study rigorously evaluated the diagnostic efficacy of various polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays, focusing on those recommended by the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) and the assays newly proposed by WOAH's Aquatic Animals Health Standards Commission. Specifically, this study assessed conventional PCR, nested PCR, modified 1-F/1-R, and real-time PCR assays using a 95% limit of detection (LoD95%), as well as diagnostic sensitivity (DSe) and specificity (DSp) tests across different RSIV severity grades (G0-G4). In previous studies, the LoD95% for the 1-F/1-R and 4-F/4-R conventional assays were 225.81 and 328.7 copies/reaction, respectively. The modified 1-F/1-R exhibited a lower LoD95% of 51.32 copies/reaction. Notably, the nested PCR had an LoD95% of 11.23 copies/reaction, and the real-time PCR assay had an LoD95% of 12.02 copies/reaction. The DSe varied across RSIV severity grades, especially in the lower G0-G2 grades. The nested PCR and modified 1-F/1-R assays displayed the highest DSe, making them particularly useful for early-stage screening and detection of asymptomatic carriers. In addition, the PCR assays did not cross-react with any other aquatic pathogens except RSIV. Our findings significantly advanced the diagnostic capabilities of RSIVD by suggesting that nested PCR and modified 1-F/1-R assays are particularly promising for early detection. We propose their inclusion in future WOAH guidelines for a more comprehensive diagnostic framework.

Self-Assembled Tamoxifen-Selective Fluorescent Nanomaterials Driven by Molecular Structural Similarity.

Most supramolecular systems were discovered by using a trial-and-error approach, leading to numerous synthetic efforts to obtain optimal supramolecular building blocks for selective guest encapsulation. Here, we report a simple coassembly strategy for preparing tamoxifen-selective supramolecular nanomaterials in an aqueous solution. The synthetic amphiphile molecule, 1,1,2,2-tetraphenylethylene (TPE), promotes large tamoxifen aggregate disassembly into smaller, discrete aggregates such as ribbon-like and micellar assemblies in coassembled solutions, enhancing the solubility and dispersion. The TPE moiety exhibits enhanced emission upon tamoxifen interaction, enabling the observation of the coassembled species in an aqueous solution for cell imaging. The tamoxifen-selective fluorescent micelles in the presence of a 1:1 molar ratio of TPE derivative with tamoxifen show enhanced tamoxifen absorption and anticancer effects against MCF-7 breast cancer cells. These supramolecular approaches, based on the coassembly of building blocks with molecular structural similarity, can provide a novel strategy for the efficient development of selective molecular carriers with enhanced biological activities.

Enhancing polyethylene terephthalate conversion through efficient microwave-assisted deep eutectic solvent-catalyzed glycolysis.

Chemical recycling of plastics is a promising approach for effectively depolymerizing plastic waste into its constituent monomers, thereby contributing to the realization of a sustainable circular economy. Glycolysis, which converts polyethylene terephthalate (PET) into the monomer bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET), has emerged as a cost-effective and commercially viable chemical recycling process. However, glycolysis requires long reaction times and high energy consumption, limiting its industrialization. In this study, we develop an energy-efficient microwave-assisted deep eutectic solvent-catalyzed glycolysis method to degrade PET effectively and rapidly, resulting in a high BHET yield. This combined approach enables the quantitative degradation of PET within 9 min, achieving a high BHET yield of approximately 99% under optimal reaction conditions. Furthermore, the proposed approach has a low specific energy consumption (45 kJ/g) and minimizes waste generation. The thermal behavior of PET and its degradation mechanism are systematically investigated using scanning electron microscopy and density functional theory-based calculations. The results obtained suggest that the proposed straightforward, swift, and energy-efficient strategy has the potential to offer a sustainable solution to plastic waste management challenges and expedite the industrialization of chemical recycling.

Chemical upcycling of PVC-containing plastic wastes by thermal degradation and catalysis in a chlorine-rich environment.

Chlorine (Cl)-containing chemicals, including hydrogen chloride, generated during thermal degradation of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and corresponding mixture impede the chemical recycling of PVC-containing plastic wastes. While upgrading plastic-derived vapors, the presence of Cl-containing chemicals may deactivate the catalysts. Accordingly, herein, catalytic upgrading of pyrolysis vapor prepared from a mixture of PVC and polyolefins is performed using a fixed-bed reactor comprising zeolites. Among the H-forms of zeolites (namely, ZSM-5, Y, ß, and chabazite) used in this study, a higher yield of gas products composed of hydrocarbons with lower carbon numbers is obtained using H-ZSM-5, thus indicating further decomposition of the pyrolysis vapor to C1-C4 hydrocarbons on it. Although the formation of aromatic compounds is better on H-ZSM-5, product distributions can be adjusted by further modifying the acidic properties via the alteration of the Si/Al molar ratio, and maximum yields of C1-C4 compounds (60.8%) and olefins (64.7%) are achieved using a Si/Al molar ratio of 50. Additionally, metal ion exchange on H-ZSM-5 is conducted, and upgrading of PVC-containing waste-derived vapor to aromatic chemicals and small hydrocarbon molecules was successfully performed using Co-substituted H-ZSM-5. It reveals that the highest yield of gas products on 1.74 wt% cobalt (Co)-substituted H-ZSM-5 is acquired via the selection of an appropriate metal and metal ion concentration adjustment. Nevertheless, introduction of excess Co into the H-ZSM-5 surface decreases the cracking activity, thereby implying that highly distributed Co is required to achieve excellent cracking activity. The addition of Co also adjusted the acid types of H-ZSM-5, and more Lewis acid sites compared to Brønsted acid sites selectively produced olefins and naphthenes over paraffins and aromatics. The proposed approach can be a feasible process to produce valuable petroleum-replacing chemicals from Cl-containing mixed plastic wastes, contributing to the closed loops for upcycling plastic wastes.

Generation of porcine endometrial organoids and their use as a model for enhancing embryonic attachment and elongation.

In brief: Porcine endometrial organoids (EOs) were isolated and characterized, revealing distinctive features such as unique extracellular matrix formation, fusion into uterine bud-like structures, and facilitation of embryo elongation. The yield of EOs was significantly enhanced by cryopreservation medium supplemented with the rock inhibitor (Y-27632), resulting in reduced expression of apoptotic mRNAs and microRNAs. Abstract: Endometrial organoids (EOs) are acceptable models for understanding maternal-embryonic cross talk. This study was conducted to generate EOs and optimize their cryopreservation and provide coculture modeling with embryos. The endometrial tissues were used for culturing the organoids inside domes of Matrigel®. To improve the long-term storage of EOs, 10 µM ROCK inhibitor (RI) was added to the cryopreservation medium. Day 7 parthenogenetically activated embryos were cocultured with EOs or EO outgrowths, and embryonic cell numbers and embryo attachment were monitored. Spherical EOs 100-300 µm in size can be retrieved on day 7 of culture, and larger EOs, approximately 1.5 mm in diameter, can be maintained in the Matrigel® dome for 21 days. The nuclear expression of Ki67 indicates that more than 80% of EOs nuclei were proliferative. EOs exhibit unique novel characters such as formation of extracellular matrix and ability for fusion. RI increased the yield and quality of organoids after freezing or thawing. The cell number of cocultured embryos increased five-fold, and the proportion of trophoblast outgrowths increased seven-fold compared with those of control embryos. The embryos cultured with EO-conditioned medium showed a better attachment rate than the other models, and - for the first time - we report embryonic elongation. Immunofluorescence staining of the attached embryos showed CDX2 in the periphery of EOs outgrowths. The 3D assembly and cryopreservation of EOs was optimized, and EO coculture supported embryo attachment, trophoblast outgrowth, and elongation, which would provide a valuable tool for studying the intricate processes involved in porcine embryo implantation.

Integrating experimental and computational approaches for deep eutectic solvent-catalyzed glycolysis of post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate.

To achieve a sustainable and circular economy, developing effective plastic recycling methods is essential. Despite advances in the chemical recycling of plastic waste, modern industries require highly efficient and sustainable solutions to address environmental problems. In this study, we propose an efficient glycolysis strategy for post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) using deep eutectic solvents (DESs) to produce bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) with high selectivity. Choline chloride (ChCl)- and urea-based DESs were synthesized using various metal salts and were tested for the glycolysis of PET waste; ChCl-Zn(OAc)2 exhibited the best performance. The DES-containing solvent system afforded a complete PET conversion, producing BHET at a high yield (91.6%) under optimal reaction conditions. The degradation mechanism of PET and its interaction with DESs were systematically investigated using density functional theory-based calculations. Furthermore, an intuitive machine learning model was developed to predict the PET conversion and BHET selectivity for different DES compositions. Our findings demonstrate that the DES-catalyzed glycolysis of post-consumer PET could enable the development of a sustainable chemical recycling process, providing insights to identify the new design of DESs for plastic decomposition.

Clinical Assessment of Thermotherapy Applications during Hepatectomy and Laparotomy in Sturgeon (Acipenser ruthenus): Impact on Bioparameter Variations Based on Liver Condition.

Surgical techniques are gaining attention for treating physical diseases in aquaculture and aquarium fish. Sturgeon is a suitable species for surgical experiments due to its industrial significance. Maintaining homeostasis is crucial during surgical procedures, and the liver plays a major role in immune regulation. High temperature is suggested to improve physiological activity and wound healing. This study investigated differences in hepatectomy sturgeons' tolerance and histopathological responses of internal organs. Moreover, this study investigated the effects of high temperatures on wound healing and hematopoietic recovery in fish undergoing surgical procedures. The liver condition was found to play a pivotal role in the analysis, and cortisol levels were affected by anesthesia. The results showed that high temperature facilitated hematopoietic recovery and wound healing, but excessive induction of physiological activity caused damage. Managing high temperatures and liver conditions induced a remarkable improvement in wound healing. However, anesthesia itself can be a significant stressor for fish, and wound healing requires a greater amount of energy. Further research is needed to understand the stress factors caused by surgical procedures and anesthesia and to promote animal welfare in fishery products.
