- Abstract
The aim was to examine the acute effects of sprint exercise (SIT) on global gene expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue (AT) in healthy subjects, to enhance understanding of how SIT influences body weight regulation. The hypothesis was that SIT upregulates genes involved in mitochondrial function and fat metabolism. A total of 15 subjects performed three 30-s all-out sprints (SIT). Samples were collected from AT, skeletal muscle (SM) and blood (brachial artery and a subcutaneous AT vein) up to 15 min after the last sprint. Results showed that markers of oxidative stress, such as the purines hypoxanthine, xanthine and uric acid, increased markedly by SIT in both the artery and the AT vein. Purines also increased in AT and SM tissue. Differential gene expression analysis indicated a decrease in signaling for mitochondrial-related pathways, including oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport, ATP synthesis, and heat production by uncoupling proteins, as well as mitochondrial fatty acid beta oxidation. This downregulation of genes related to oxidative metabolism suggests an early-stage inhibition of the mitochondria, potentially as a protective mechanism against SIT-induced oxidative stress., (© 2024 The Author(s).

- Abstract
Background: Low-volume sprint exercise is likely to reduce body fat. Interleukin (IL-6) may mediate this by increasing adipose tissue (AT) lipolysis. Therefore, the exchange of AT IL-6 and glycerol, a marker of lipolysis, was examined in 10 healthy subjects performing three 30-s all-out sprints., Methods: Blood samples were obtained from brachial artery (a) and a superficial subcutaneous vein (v) on the anterior abdominal wall up to 9 min after the last sprint and analysed for IL-6 and glycerol., Results: Arterial IL-6 increased 2-fold from rest to last sprint. AT venous IL-6 increased 15-fold from 0.4 ± 0.4 at rest to 7.0 ± 4 pg × mL
-1 (p < 0.0001) and AT v-a difference increased 45-fold from 0.12 ± 0.3 to 6.0 ± 5 pg x mL-1 (p < 0.0001) 9 min after last sprint. Arterial glycerol increased 2.5-fold from rest to 9 min postsprint 1 (p < 0.0001) and was maintained during the exercise period. AT venous and v-a difference of glycerol increased 2-fold from rest to 9 min postsprint 1 (p < 0.0001 and p = 0.01, respectively), decreased until 18 min postsprint 2 (p < 0.001 and p < 0.0001), and then increased again until 9 min after last sprint (both p < 0.01)., Conclusions: The concurrent increase in venous IL-6 and glycerol in AT after last sprint is consistent with an IL-6 induced lipolysis in AT. Glycerol data also indicated an initial increase in lipolysis after sprint 1 that was unrelated to IL-6. Increased IL-6 in adipose tissue may, therefore, complement other sprint exercise-induced lipolytic agents., (© 2023 The Authors.

- Abstract
Resistance toward the antiparasitic pyrethroid, deltamethrin, is reported in the Atlantic salmon louse ( Lepeophtheirus salmonis salmonis ), a persistent ectoparasite of farmed and wild salmonids. The resistance mechanism is linked to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), where genetic markers for resistance have been identified. Here, we investigated how widespread pyrethroid use in aquaculture may have influenced mtDNA variation in lice, and the dispersion of resistant haplotypes across the North Atlantic, using historical (2000-2002 "pre-resistance") and contemporary (2014-2017 "post-resistance") samples. To study this, we sequenced ATPase 6 and cytochrome b, genotyped two genetic markers for deltamethrin resistance, and genotyped microsatellites as "neutral" controls of potential population bottlenecks. Overall, we observed a modest reduction in mtDNA diversity in the period 2000-2017, but no reduction in microsatellite variation was observed. The reduction in mtDNA variation was especially distinct in two of the contemporary samples, fixed for one and two haplotypes, respectively. By contrast, all historical samples consisted of close to one mtDNA haplotype per individual . No population genetic structure was detected among the historical samples for mtDNA nor microsatellites. By contrast, significant population genetic differentiation was observed for mtDNA among some of the contemporary samples. However, the observed population genetic structure was tightly linked with the pattern of deltamethrin resistance, and we therefore conclude that it primarily reflects the transient mosaic of pyrethroid usage in time and space. Two historically undetected mtDNA haplotypes dominated in the contemporary samples, both of which were linked to deltamethrin resistance, demonstrating primarily two origins of deltamethrin resistance in the North Atlantic. Collectively, these data demonstrate that the widespread use of pyrethroids in commercial aquaculture has substantially altered the patterns of mtDNA diversity in lice across the North Atlantic, and that long-distance dispersion of resistance is rapid due to high level of genetic connectivity that is observed in this species., (© 2023 The Authors.

- Abstract
Vibrio vulnificus is a zoonotic pathogen that can cause death by septicaemia in farmed fish (mainly eels) and humans. The zoonotic strains that have been isolated from diseased eels and humans after eel handling belong to clade E (or serovar E (SerE)), a clonal complex within the pathovar (pv.) piscis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS) in the identification of SerE, using the other two main pv. piscis-serovars (SerA and SerI) from eels as controls. MALDI-TOF data were compared with known serologic and genetic data of five pv. piscis isolates or strains, and with the non pv. piscis reference strain. Based on multiple spectra analysis, we found serovar-specific peaks that were of ~3098 Da and ~ 4045 Da for SerE, of ~3085 Da and ~ 4037 Da for SerA, and of ~3085 Da and ~ 4044 Da for SerI. Therefore, our results demonstrate that MALDI-TOF can be used to identify SerE and could also help in the identification of the other serovars of the species. This means that zoonosis due to V. vulnificus could be prevented by using MALDI-TOF, as action can be taken immediately after the isolation of a possible zoonotic V. vulnificus strain., (© 2023 The Authors.

- Abstract
Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) is a transatlantic marine fish displaying large population sizes and a high potential for dispersal and gene-flow. These features are expected to result in weak population structure. Here, we investigated population genetic structure of lumpfish throughout its natural distribution in the North Atlantic using two approaches: I) 4,393 genome wide SNPs and 95 individuals from 10 locations, and II) 139 discriminatory SNPs and 1,669 individuals from 40 locations. Both approaches identified extensive population genetic structuring with a major split between the East and West Atlantic and a distinct Baltic Sea population, as well as further differentiation of lumpfish from the English Channel, Iceland, and Greenland. The discriminatory loci displayed ~2-5 times higher divergence than the genome wide approach, revealing further evidence of local population substructures. Lumpfish from Isfjorden in Svalbard were highly distinct but resembled most fish from Greenland. The Kattegat area in the Baltic transition zone, formed a previously undescribed distinct genetic group. Also, further subdivision was detected within North America, Iceland, West Greenland, Barents Sea, and Norway. Although lumpfish have considerable potential for dispersal and gene-flow, the observed high levels of population structuring throughout the Atlantic suggests that this species may have a natal homing behavior and local populations with adaptive differences. This fine-scale population structure calls for consideration when defining management units for exploitation of lumpfish stocks and in decisions related to sourcing and moving lumpfish for cleaner fish use in salmonid aquaculture., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright: © 2023 Jansson et al.

- Abstract
Low physical activity is responsible for approximately 0,83 million deaths globally every year according to the Global Burden of Disease (GBD), whereas others have estimated that low physical activity is responsible for about 4-5 million deaths annually. The underlying evidence for the GBD estimate is debatable. It is based on a substantially lower maximal risk reduction with a relative risk of about 10 % compared with a maximal relative risk reduction of more than 30 % in the recent WHO global physical activity recommendations. According to GBD, dietary risks are responsible for 10 times more deaths compared to low physical activity. This estimate is based on 15 different dietary risk factors without systematically considering covariation between risk factors. It is of utmost importance that a reliable and transparent evidence base is presented in future GBD publications about the impact of disease risk factors on the global disease burden. Misleading messages about the importance of physical activity for reducing chronic diseases will undermine the work conducted to develop evidence-based knowledge about the health effects of physical activity.

- Abstract
Recommendations on physical activity and sedentary behaviour for improved health have been prepared by Professional Associations for Physical Activity (YFA) and approved by the Swedish Society of Medicine. All adults should do aerobic physical activity 150-300 minutes at moderate or 75-150 minutes at high intensity, or combined, at a weekly basis. For additional health benefits, muscle-strengthening activity should be performed on at least 2 days a week, and sedentary time should be limited and replaced by physical activity. Older adults should, as part of their weekly physical activity, do multicomponent physical activity that emphasizes balance and strength on at least 2-3 days a week to enhance functional capacity and prevent falls. The benefits of physical activity outweigh the risks. The Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare recommends that healthcare providers offer counselling with exercise on prescription to individuals with physical activity under the recommended dose.

- Abstract
It was hypothesized that the typical adult pattern of higher glycolytic capacity in skeletal muscle of males compared to females is not observed in children and that fiber cross-sectional area (CSA) is a determinant of glycolytic capacity in children. Biopsies were performed in vastus lateralis in 9-12 years-old healthy boys and girls (N = 27). Fiber types were classified by myofibrillar ATPase staining and CSA was measured using planimetry. Citrate synthase (CS) and lactate dehydrogenase (LD) were analyzed using fluorometric and spectrophotometric methods. There was no significant difference between boys and girls in CS activity (0.45 ± 0.1 μkat g
-1 dry muscle in boys and 0.42 ± 0.1 in girls) or LD activity (24 ± 6 μkat g-1 dry muscle in boys and 25 ± 7 in girls). CSA did not differ between boys and girls. CS was inversely related to type I CSA (r = -0.62, p < 0.001) and LD was directly related to type IIA (r = 0.63, p < 0.001) and type IIB CSA (r = 0.72, p < 0.001). CSA was a significant determinant of CS and LD, even after adjusting for sex and relative fiber type area in multiple regression analysis. This suggests that the typical adult pattern of higher muscle glycolytic capacity in males than in females, as estimated by LD activity, was not observed in children. Sex-specific patterns in glycolytic capacity thus appear to develop during the transition from childhood to adulthood. In addition, fiber CSA was a strong determinant of both muscle glycolytic and oxidative capacity in children, regardless of sex., (© 2022 The Authors.

- Abstract
Bacterial kidney disease (BKD), caused by Renibacterium salmoninarum (Rs), can be transmitted both horizontally and vertically and there is no available cure or prophylaxis. The control of BKD requires continuous surveillance, which is challenging in aquaculture as well as in programs for conservation and restoration of salmonid fish strains. BKD is a notifiable disease in Sweden and is monitored through the mandatory health control program using a polyclonal ELISA for detection of the Rs p57 protein in kidney. Fish must be killed for sampling, an obvious disadvantage especially regarding valuable broodfish. The present study shows that gill-/cloacal swabs collected in vivo for real-time PCR (qPCR
gc ), allow a sensitive and specific detection of Rs. The sensitivity of qPCRgc was estimated to 97.8% (credible interval (ci) 93.8%-100%) compared to 98.3% (ci 92.7%-100%) and 48.8% (ci 38.8%-58.8%) of kidney samples for qPCR (qPCRk ) and ELISA (ELISAk ) respectively, by use of the Bayesian Latent Class Analysis (BLCA). Since the goal of the program is eradication of BKD the most sensitive test is preferrable. Using qPCRgc instead of ELISAk will result in a lower false negative rate and can be useful for surveillance in aquaculture and in breeding programs with valuable fish. However, a higher false positive rate warrants confirmatory lethal testing before a previously Rs negative farm is subject to restrictions., (© 2022 The Authors.

- Abstract
Bacterial kidney disease (BKD) can be a devastating bacterial infection in salmonids, and it is present in aquaculture throughout the world. BKD is caused by the Gram-positive facultative intracellular bacterium Renibacterium salmoninarum (R. salmoninarum) that is spread both horizontally and vertically. Disease signs include external ulcerations and blisters and internal signs such as organ swelling, granulomas, petechiae and ascites. In Sweden, BKD accounts for a significant income loss in aquacultures due to expensive decontamination of the facility and increased disease susceptibility for the immunocompromised fish leading to higher mortality rates. In addition, uncontrolled spread in aquaculture may threaten the survival of wild fish populations. The aim of our study was to investigate the prevalence of R. salmoninarum in wild salmonids caught in Swedish waters where net pen farms with a recent history of BKD are present. Four rivers with at least one BKD-positive or recently BKD-positive farm were selected. In addition, we evaluated the use of environmental DNA (eDNA) for surveillance and monitoring of ongoing infections at these locations. In total, 1058 fish were sampled from four different river systems, and of them 52 (4.9%) were positive for R. salmoninarum by antigen ELISA. Surprisingly, these fish were not evenly distributed between the four river systems, but 50 were caught in the same river (Ljungan). This accounts for an alarmingly high rate of 17% R. salmoninarum-positive samples in wild salmonids in this area. This number is far above what was expected and clearly shows the risk with an open farming system as well as the importance of effective health monitoring programmes to avoid an uncontrolled spread of the disease. The use of eDNA for monitoring BKD is somewhat difficult to evaluate. Few of the water samples analysed were PCR positive for R. salmoninarum (2 of 38) and those were collected where no ELISA positive fish were identified. In addition to water, sediment samples were collected under a net pen farm that had recently slaughtered all fish due to ongoing R. salmoninarum infections. Sediment samples are more promising than water as 4 of 5 samples at one farming facility where positive for R. salmoninarum. Thus, sediment samples may be valuable for monitoring potential ongoing BKD in farms, without the need to sacrifice valuable fish., (© 2022 The Authors.

- Abstract
Wearable sweat sensors are emerging as promising platforms for personalized and real-time tracking of evolving health and fitness parameters. While most wearable sweat sensors focus on tracking biomarker concentration profiles, sweat secretion rate is a key metric with broad implications for assessing hydration, cardiac, and neural conditions. Here we present a wearable microfluidic sensor for continuous sweat rate measurement. A discrete impedimetric sensing scheme relying on interdigitated electrodes within a microfluidic sweat collector allows for precise and selective sweat rate measurement across a broad physiological range. Integration of a manually activated pressure pump to expel sweat from the device prevents sensor saturation and enables continuous sweat rate tracking over hours. By enabling broad range and prolonged sweat rate measurement, this platform tackles a key obstacle to realizing meaningful and actionable sweat sensing for applications in exercise physiology and medicine.

- Abstract
Flexible plastic substrates are widely used in printed electronics; however, they cause major climate impacts and pose sustainability challenges. In recent years, paper-based electronics has been studied to increase the recyclability and sustainability of printed electronics. The aim of this paper is to analyze the printability and performance of metal conductor layers on different paper-based substrates using both flexography and screen printing and to compare the achieved performance with that of plastic foils. In addition, the re-pulpability potential of the used paper-based substrates is evaluated. As compared to the common polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, the layer conductivity on paper-based substrates was found to be improved with both the printing methods without having a large influence on the detail rendering. This means that a certain surface roughness and porosity is needed for the improved ink transfer and optimum ink behavior on the surface of the substrate. In the case of uncoated paper-based substrates, the conductivity and print quality decreased by preventing the formation of the proper and intimate ink-substrate contact during the ink transfer. Finally, the re-pulpability trials together with layer quality analysis detected very good, coated substrate candidates for paper-based printed electronics competing with or even outperforming the print quality on the reference PET foil.
