Rete mirabile and gas gland epithelium from the swim bladders of six species of marine fishes were assayed for catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase activity. Correlation of the results of these assays with measurements of the concentration of oxygen in the lumen of the normal steady state swim bladders revealed that swim bladders in species containing higher levels of oxygen also exhibited higher levels of superoxide dismutase activity in the rete mirabile/gas gland epithelium region. There appeared to be no correlation between oxygen concentration and the level of catalase or glutathione peroxidase activity. Induction of the inflatory reflex in Opsanus tau by a single deflation of the swim bladder resulted in an increase in the percent of oxygen in the swim bladder lumen 18 to 24 hours later, but this was not accompanied by any significant increases in antioxidant enzyme activity. Swim bladders that were deflated three times at 24-hour intervals showed further increases in oxygen concentration at the end of the 72-hour period but no alteration in superoxide dismutase activity.
