摘要： Culter alburnus is sensitive to stressors. Arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide, which can effectively relieve the level of oxidative stress and improve the antioxidant and immune capacity of fish. The effect of different arginine levels on topmouth culter (Culter alburnus) fry development performance, liver antioxidant capacity, and immune parameters were investigated in this study. Five diets (1.96%, ARG1, control group; 2.28%, ARG2; 2.52%, ARG3; 2.81%, ARG4; 3.09%, ARG5) were used to feed fry (initial weight 0.31 +/- 0.01 g) for 8 weeks. The data showed that the final weight (FW), weight gain rate (WGR), and specific growth rate (SGR) of the ARG3 and ARG4 groups were significantly improved, while the feed conversion ratio (FCR) reduced significantly. Compared with the ARG1 group, all groups remarkably reduced the crude ash content of the whole body. The activity of hepatic superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of hepatic glutathione (GSH) were significantly increased in the ARG3 and ARG4 groups, while the malondialdehyde (MDA) content was significantly decreased. Compared with the ARG1 group, arginine levels in ARG2, ARG3, and ARG4 groups up-regulated the expression levels of Nrf2, down-regulated the gene expression level of Keap1 in the liver. And the expression of Nrf2/Keap1 pathway downstream genes Mn-SOD and CAT was up-regulated in ARG2 and ARG3 groups. Furthermore, the expression levels of MyD88 and IL-1 beta were down-regulated, and the anti-inflammatory gene TGF-beta expression levels were up-regulated in the ARG2, ARG3, and ARG4 groups. Additionally, compared to the ARG1 group, there was a significant increase in the relative expression levels of the C3 and C4 genes in the ARG4 group. In conclusion, 2.28-2.81% dietary arginine levels improved the growth performance, promoted antioxidant capacity, and enhance immune response. The optimal level of arginine was determined by the quadratic regression analysis of SGR and FCR to be 2.55% of diet (5.43% of dietary protein) and 2.53% of diet (5.38% of dietary protein), accordingly.
