Teleost fish are exposed to diverse stressors in farming and wildlife conditions during their
lifespan. Cortisol is the main glucocorticoid hormone involved in the regulation of their …

Cortisol is a critical neuroendocrine regulator of the stress response in fish. Cortisol
practically affects all tissues by interacting with an intracellular receptor and modulating …

Based on previous studies we hypothesize that under stress conditions catecholamine-
induced hyperglycemia contributes to enhance cortisol production in head kidney of rainbow …

We investigated the relationship between telemetry measurements of heart rate and
swimming activity and the physiological status in farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to …

In this study, we explored the growth, survival, and potential population-level effects of short-
term experimentally induced stress in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides). Cortisol …

(Kryptolebias marmoratus), the transition from water to land is taxing. When out of the water,
these fish breathe more oxygen and, no longer able to swim, they also get creative with how …

Glucocorticoids are critical regulators of the cellular processes that allow animals to cope
with stressors. In teleosts, cortisol is the primary circulating glucocorticoid and this hormone …

Plasma cortisol elevation, a common consequence of stress, occurs in salmonids of
subordinate rank; these fish acquire a smaller share of available food and grow more slowly …

Cortisol is the principal corticosteriod in teleost fishes and its plasma concentrations rise
dramatically during stress. The relationship between this cortisol increase and its metabolic …

Stress in farmed fish is associated with poor feeding, slow growth, disease, and mortality.
Therefore, it is essential to closely monitor stress levels in fish to optimize farming practices …
