Metabolic disorder induces fatty liver in Japanese seabass, Lateolabrax japonicas fed a full plant protein diet and regulated by cAMP-JNK/NF-kB-caspase signal pathway

A 10-week growth trial was conducted to investigate the effects of replacing dietary fishmeal with plant proteins on nutrition metabolism, immunity, inflammation and apoptosis responses in liver tissues of Japanese seabass, Lateolabrax japonicas (initial body weight = 10.42 ± 0.01 g). Two isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets were formulated. A basal diet containing 54% fishmeal (FM), whereas another diet was prepared by totally replacing FM...
