At 20 °C goldfish survive anaerobic conditions for only a few hours while at 4 °C survival is extended to several days. During the course of low-temperature anaerobiosis there was a rise in blood glucose and lactate, a decline in liver glycogen concentration, and an increase in liver water content, while liver size remained constant.The better cold anaerobic survival of winter and hypophysectomized goldfish compared with spring and sham-operated animals was correlated with greater glycogen stores in the livers of the former. It is concluded that liver glycogen is a necessary energy source during cold anaerobiosis, and it is suggested that the resulting hyperglycemia may represent a mechanism to increase glycolytic energy yield. Cold anaerobiosis also resulted in elevated liver glucose-6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9) activity, suggesting an increase in glycogenolysis, but no change in glycogen phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) activity. While cold anaerobic survival is short term it is possible that liver glycogen may sustain goldfish for longer periods at low oxygen levels through a mixed aerobic–anaerobic metabolism.

Serum prolactin concentrations in serially sampled goldfish (Carassius auratus) did not vary significantly between 30 s and 3 min after initial capture. A marked decrease in prolactin concentration was noted 9–17 min after initial capture followed by a recovery at 30–48 min. Although there was a circadian variation in prolactin concentration, the pattern of response to capture and sampling did not vary significantly among the times tested.

Nocturnin (NOC) is a unique deadenylase with robust rhythmic expression involved in the regulation of metabolic processes in mammals. Currently, the possible presence of NOC in fish is unknown. This report aimed to identify NOC in a fish model, the goldfish ( Carassius auratus), and to study the possible regulation of its expression by feeding. Two partial-length cDNAs of 293 and 223 bp, named nocturnin-a ( noc-a) and nocturnin-b ( noc-b), were identified and found to be highly conserved among vertebrates. Both mRNAs show a similar widespread distribution in central and peripheral tissues, with higher levels detected for noc-a compared with noc-b. The periprandial expression profile revealed that noc-a mRNAs rise sharply after a meal in hypothalamus, intestinal bulb, and liver, whereas almost no changes were observed for noc-b. Food deprivation was found to exert opposite effects on the expression of both NOCs (generally inhibitory for noc-a, and stimulatory for noc-b) in the three mentioned tissues. A single meal after a 48-h food deprivation period reversed (totally or partially) the fasting-induced decreases in noc-a transcripts in all studied tissues and the increases in noc-b expression in the intestinal bulb. Together, this study offers the first report of NOC in fish and shows a high dependence of its expression on feeding and nutritional status. The differential responses to feeding of the two NOCs raise the possibility that they might be underlying different physiological mechanisms (e.g., food intake, lipid mobilization, energy homeostasis) in fish.
