Zusammenfassung: | The immune modulatory activity of diet long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in fish has been previously demonstrated, although results for freshwater species are controversial. This study evaluates the effect of different dietary lipids on freshwater catfish jundia, Rhamdia quelen, survival and its non-specific response (phagocytosis) after being inoculated with the pathogen Aeromonas hydrophila. Five diets were offered to jundia fingerlings during 150 days prior to challenge: cod liver oil (FO), sunflower oil (SO), linseed oil (LO), canola oil (CO) and coconut oil (CNO). Accumulated mortality was significantly lower in fish fed FO and CNO diets and higher in fish fed LO. In spite of the highest values observed for phagocytotic activity in CNO-fed fish (50.0 ± 12.7%) and in FO-fed fish (45.0 ± 10.5%) when compared to those fed other diets, no significant differences in phagocytosis were reported. Results show the relevance of a balanced dietary lipid source with adequate concentrations of n-3 and n-6 series of fatty acids to prevent mortality after pathogen challenge. Keywords: mortality, phagocytosis, oils, immune response. A atividade moduladora dos acidos graxos de cadeia longa no sistema imunologico de peixes ja foi demonstrada, embora os resultados para especies de agua doce sejam controversos. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a sobrevivencia e resposta imune nao especifica (fagocitose) de alevinos de jundia, Rhamdia quelen, previamente alimentados com diferentes fontes lipidicas na dieta, apos serem desafiados com o patogeno Aeromonas hydrophila. Cinco dietas com diferentes fontes lipidicas foram oferecidas a alevinos de jundia durante os 150 dias antes do desafio: oleo de figado de bacalhau (FO), oleo de girassol (SO), oleo de linhaca (LO), oleo de canola (CO) e gordura de coco (CNO). A mortalidade acumulada foi menor nos peixes alimentados com as dietas FO e CNO e maior nos que receberam a dieta LO. A fagocitose nao apresentou diferencas significativas entre os tratamentos, porem os peixes que consumiram as dietas CNO (50,0 ± 12,7%) e FO (45,0 ± 10,5%) apresentaram valores mais elevados. Os resultados do estudo mostram a relevancia de utilizar fontes lipidicas com adequadas quantidades de acidos graxos das series n-3 e n-6 na prevencao da infeccao por patogenos em jundia. Palavras-chave: mortalidade, fagocitose, oleos, resposta imune. |
