doi: 10.1016/j.aninu.2025.12.011

Figure Lengend Snippet: The possible mechanism of dietary selenium regulating muscle growth of sub-adult grass carp. SELO = selenoprotein O; GPX1 = glutathione peroxidase 1.

Article Snippet: And the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and L-glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), protein carbonyl (PC), and hydroxyproline (HYP) contents were assayed using kits from Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute (A005, A006, A003-1, A087-1, and A030-1, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Spearman correlation analysis between health status parameters and fecal microbiota and SCFAs concentrations. Red indicates positive correlation; blue indicates negative correlation. The color scale represents the correlation coefficient from negative to positive, and deeper color intensity indicates a stronger association. SCFAs = short-chain fatty acids; GSH-Px = glutathione peroxidase; SOD = superoxide dismutase; E2 = estradiol; P4 = progesterone; IL-6 = interleukin-6; TNF-α = tumor necrosis factor-α. ∗ 0.01 < P ≤ 0.05, ∗∗ 0.001 < P ≤ 0.01.

Article Snippet: The serum malondialdehyde (MDA; A003-1), superoxide dismutase (SOD; A001-1), catalase (CAT; A007-1-1), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px; A005-1) were measured using commercial kits (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China) following the instructions of the manufacturer with a microplate reader (Synergy H1, BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT, USA).
