Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) muscle structure integrity and lysosomal cathepsins B and L influenced by dietary n-6 and n-3 fatty acids

This study had two main objectives: first, to evaluate the impact of different types and levels of dietary n-6 and n-3 fatty acids (FAs) on Atlantic salmon muscle structure integrity; second, to highlight a possible role of lysosomes and lysosomal degrading enzymes, cathepsins, in fish muscle structure integrity, in relation to dietary fatty acids. Four groups of Atlantic salmon (90 g starting weight) in fresh water tanks were fed one of four...
