Abstract

Living systems encounter a variety of stresses at the organismal and cellular levels during their continuous interaction with the environment. Fish are particularly threatened by aquatic pollution, and the environmental stress they face may help shape their ecology, evolution, or biological systems (Sorensen and Loeschcke 2007). At the cellular level, stress can be regarded as any disturbance to normal development (Tiligada 2006). Environmental stress often activates the endogenous production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are an integral part of intracellular communication (Fedoroff 2006). Hence, constant exposure to stressors may result in ROS-mediated oxidative sequelae that irreversibly damage proteins (Eustace and Jay 2004) and thus compromise antioxidant defense, cellular function, and survival (Thomson et al. 1998). To repair such damage or eliminate damaged components, organisms have evolved the cellular stress response, which includes the induction of a highly conserved set of cytoprotective proteins called stress proteins or heat shock proteins (HSPs; Schlesinger et al. 1982).
