The role of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) on the sexual maturity of Prochilodus brevis is unknown. In this study evaluated the influence of gonadal maturation on GAGs level in P. brevis skeletal muscle. Male-M and female-F (167.30 ± 6.66-M / 209.50 ± 39.30 g-F, n = 4) gonads were selected and examined by macroscopy and gonadosomatic index (GSI) prior to filleting for determination (%, w w-1) of in natura / dehydrated muscle, water content (WC) after oven per mass difference and intramuscular GAGs extraction with papain comparing yield, metachromasy with cationic dye and structurally by infrared spectroscopy. The results showed that the gonadal stage reflecting (%, p < 0.05) in weight (2.24 ± 0.59-M vs 15.42 ± 3.48-F) and GSI (2.30 ± 0.62-M vs 18.81 ± 4.60-F) did not change (p > 0.05) the mass of fish fillet (22.69 ± 1.24-M vs 20.75 ± 3.51%-F, in natura / 5.17 ± 0.21-M vs 5.72 ± 0.46%-F, dehydrated) and WC (77.49 ± 0.72-M vs 69.19 ± 7.49%-F), but yield (0.09 ± 0.01-M vs 0.02 ± 0.00%-F, p < 0.05), anionic character and structural composition of GAGs differed in dermatan and/or keratan between sexes. The study suggested that the muscle’ GAGs may contribute as bioenergetic sources in reproduction of P. brevis.
