ABSTRACT
Thermal pollution creates substantial challenges that alter energy demand and produce reactive oxygen species that damage fish DNA, proteins, and lipids. Rhamdia voulezi is a species of fish native to the Iguaçu river, Paraná, Brazil, that does not have scientific records of minimum (CTmin) and maximum (CTmax) temperatures required for survival. As it is a top predator species in the food chain and lives at temperatures below 22 °C, the loss of the species can cause functional problems in controlling the ecosystem and energy flow. The study evaluated the tissue metabolism of the brain, heart, and muscle of R. voulezi (n = 72) subjected to acute thermal stress of 31 °C for 2, 6, 12, 24, and 96 h after acclimatization to 21 °C. The biochemical markers SOD, GPx, MDH, HK, and CK of the brain, PCO of the heart and CAT, glycogen, G6PDH, and ALT of muscle were significant. PCA, IBR, thermal sensitive, and condition factor suggested that R. voulezi has different physiological strategies for acclimatization to 31 °C to mobilize and sustain the metabolic needs of oxygenation and energy allocation/utilization for tissue ATP production.
