dc.description.abstractThe effects of orally-administered dry and live marine red yeast Rhodosporidium paludigenum on antioxidant-related gene expression in the hepatopancreas and hemocytes of Litopenaeus vannamei were investigated by RT-PCR. In the hepatopancreas of L. vannamei fed dry yeast, manganese superoxidate dismutase (SODMn) and catalase (CAT) were enhanced while glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and ferritin remained at the same levels as in the control group. In the hepatopancreas of L. vannamei fed live yeast, SODMn and ferritin were higher than in the control. In hemocytes of L. vannamei fed dry yeast, SODMn was lower, ferritin was similar, and CAT and GPx fluctuated, in comparison to the control. In hemocytes of L. vannamei fed live yeast, SODMn was lower, ferritin was higher, and CAT and GPx tended to be lower than in the control group. Results suggest that consumption of the marine red yeast, R. paludigenum, can stimulate antioxidant gene expression in the hepatopancreas of shrimp.
