Inflammatory responses in primary muscle cell cultures in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The relationship between fish health and muscle growth is critical for continued expansion of the aquaculture industry. The effect of immune stimulation on the expression of genes related to the energy balance of fish is poorly understood. In mammals immune stimulation results in major transcriptional changes in muscle, potentially to allow a reallocation of amino acids for use in the immune response...
