Experiments were conducted to examine the effects of salinity fluctuation frequency on the osmolarity, Na^＋-K^＋-ATPase activity and HSP70 of Chinese shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis ruth initial wet body weight of 1....Experiments were conducted to examine the effects of salinity fluctuation frequency on the osmolarity, Na^＋-K^＋-ATPase activity and HSP70 of Chinese shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis ruth initial wet body weight of 1.460g±0.091 g. The salinity in the control group （DO） was 28 throughout the experiment, whereas treatments D2, D4, D6 and D8 were subjected to different salinity fluctuation frequencies of 2, 4, 6 and 8d, respectively. The salinity in treatments D2, D4, D6 and D8 was kept at 28 for 2, 4, 6 and 8d, respectively, decreased abruptly to salinity 24, lasted for another 2 d, and then was raised to its initial value 28. This was a complete salinity fluctuation cycle that afterwards repeated itself. After 32 days, the osmolarity in treatments D2, D4, D6 and D8 was significantly lower than that in treatment DO （P〈0.05）. There were significant differences in both muscle and eyestalks HSP70 expression among groups. The HSP70 expressions in muscle and eyestalks in group D4 were 61.4% and 57.0% higher, respectively, than that in the control group DO （P〈0.05）. There were, however, no significant differences in gill or hepatopancreas Na^＋-K^＋-ATPase activity between the treatments and the control.展开更多
