The objective of this review is to synthetize knowledge of the relationship between metals
and oxidative stress in aquatic crustaceans (mainly shrimp and crabs) to analyze antioxidant …

Organisms that tolerate wide variations in oxygen availability, especially to hypoxia, usually
face harsh environmental conditions during their lives. Such conditions include, for example …

The influence of increasing temperatures in thermal and oxidative stress responses were
studied in the muscle of several estuarine fish species (Diplodus vulgaris, Diplodus sargus …

Osmoregulation is by no means an energetically cheap process, and its costs have been
extensively quantified in terms of respiration and aerobic metabolism. Common products of …

Reactive oxygen species were discovered in living organisms in the early 1950's and their
action has been implicated in diverse biological processes. First formulated by H. Sies in …

Large changes in oxygen availability in aquatic environments, ranging from anoxia through
to hyperoxia, can lead to corresponding wide variation in the production of reactive oxygen …

Freezing, dehydration, salinity variations, hypoxia or anoxia are some of the environmental
constraints that many organisms must frequently endure. Organisms adapted to these …

Winter survival for many kinds of animals involves freeze tolerance, the ability to endure the
conversion of about 65% of total body water into extracellular ice and the consequences that …

Climate change is disturbing marine biological processes, and impacting goods and
services provided to society. Physiological studies are a major contributor to the …

We investigated the metabolic and cellular stress responses in an endemic catfish
Horabagrus brachysoma acclimated to ambient (26° C), 31, 33 and 36° C for 30 days. After …
