This study aims to investigate the protective effects of astragaloside IV (AS‐IV) on the hepatocytes of grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella ) on heat stress. Cultured cells were treated with AS‐IV (0, 50, 100 and 200 μg/ml) at 28°C for 24 h and then exposed to heat stress by increasing the culturing temperature (32 ± 0.5°C) for 6 h. The increased temperatures significantly reduced cell viability and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, and increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the 0 μg/ml AS‐IV treatment group at 32°C, but the grass carp hepatocytes treated with 100 and 200 μg/ml AS‐IV had significantly increased cell viability and SOD activity and decreased MDA levels. The mRNA levels of keap1a , keap1b , nrf2 , gsh‐px , cat , cu‐zn sod , mgst1 and il‐6 were significantly lower in the 0 μg/ml AS‐IV treatment group at 32°C, while those of keap1a , nrf2 , gsh‐px , cat , cu‐zn sod , gstp1 , ho‐1 and il‐6 were significantly higher in cells treated with 100 or 200 μg/ml AS‐IV. Our findings indicate that AS‐IV could enhance the antioxidative stress capacity of grass carp hepatocytes under heat stress, and its mechanism may be associated with the activation of the Keap1‐Nrf2 pathway. Thus, these results provide new insights into how to alleviate heat stress in grass carp.
