Argulus siamensis is a major pathogen in freshwater aquaculture. The immune responses of Indian major carp, Labeo rohita to experimental infection of A. siamensis was evaluated by quantitation of immune‐relevant gene expression in head kidney and skin, and serum innate immune parameters through the course of infection. In skin of infected fish, antioxidant genes like natural killer cell enhancing factor (NKEF‐B) and superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) were significantly up‐regulated in addition to lysozyme G and β2 microglobulin (β2M). Both tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα) and toll‐like receptor 22 (TLR22) genes were significantly down‐regulated in skin during early phases of the infection. Most of the genes exhibited significant down‐regulation in head kidney; immunoglobulin (IgM) and β2M genes being the exceptions which were significantly up‐regulated at 12 h and 3 days post infection. Most of the innate immune parameters like serum complement activity and ceruloplasmin levels showed significant reduction in infected fish. The observed results are indicative of A. siamensis modulating the immune response of rohu by down‐regulation of many immune factors which may explain the susceptibility of rohu to A. siamensis infection. The interaction of this parasite with the host need to be further explored to understand its pathogenesis. 相似文献

This study evaluated the effect of sublethal doses of antifungal drug miconazole nitrate (MCZ) on immunological responses and its role as a prophylactic drug against S. parasitica in Labeo rohita fingerlings. Fish were fed with sublethal doses of MCZ, that is, T1—6.30 mgMCZ kgBW?1, T2—12.61 mgMCZ kgBW?1 and T3—25.22 mgMCZ kgBW?1, and sampling was done at different time intervals for 240 hr. Immunological parameters viz. lysozyme activity, oxygen radical production and plasma antiprotease activity showed significant enhancement (p < 0.05) in fish fed with T2 and T3 doses. Expression of immune‐relevant genes such as TLR‐22 and β2‐M showed significantly higher expression at 6 hr and 24 hr of sampling in both liver and head kidney. However, these genes showed a downregulation after 120 hr of sampling in both the tissues. Preventive efficacy study showed that single dose of MCZ provides protection against oomycetes up to the fourth day of infection. Significantly higher mortality was observed in control diet‐fed fish as compared to fish fed with MCZ medicated diet. Thus, it can be concluded that the MCZ can act as a potent antifungal agent for preventing oomycetes infection as well as to enhance the immune response. 相似文献

In this study, the use of Lactobacillus acidophilus as a probiotic for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) culture was studied. Fish survival and the expression of some genes involved in the immune response were assessed. Diet supplementation with L. acidophilus for 15 days caused a significant increase in fish survival during a challenge with Aeromonas hydrophila and variations in immune response related to IL‐1β and transferrin expression in Nile tilapia spleen and kidney. Moreover, extracellular products (ECPs) of L. acidophilus showed high antibacterial activity against fish pathogens such as A. hydrophila and Streptococcus agalactiae in vitro. It was also observed that viable L. acidophilus was able to disrupt quorum sensing activity in Chromobacterium violaceum. 相似文献

Haemocyanin is a multi‐subunit protein complex found in the haemolymph and is involved in the immune system of crustaceans. In this study, a haemocyanin gene of Macrobrachium rosenbergii, designated MrHc, was successfully isolated. The MrHc gene contained an open reading frame (ORF) of 1,992 nucleotides, encoding a protein of 663 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 76.5 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence contained distinct structural motifs of the haemocyanin superfamily, including an all‐alpha domain, a copper‐containing domain and an immunoglobulin‐like domain. Based on the phylogenetic analysis, the MrHC protein demonstrated a close relationship with the haemocyanins of Palaemon carinicauda and Macrobrachium nipponense. The MrHc gene was expressed in various shrimp tissues, including the hepatopancreas, gill, haemocytes, stomach and muscle. After Macrobrachium rosenbergii nodavirus (MrNV) challenge tests, the MrHc gene was up‐regulated 237‐fold at day 2. A recombinant protein of the MrHc immunoglobulin‐like domain exhibited antibacterial activity against Vibrio vulnificus, V. parahaemolyticus, Aeromonas caviae, A. veronii, A. hydrophila and Bacillus cereus. This study suggested that MrHc may play important roles in the shrimp innate immune response to MrNV infection and bacterial infection. 相似文献

An 84‐day feeding trial was carried out to evaluate the effects of aqueous Psidium guajava leaf extract (PGE) on growth, intestinal morphology, physiology, immune response and susceptibility of Oreochromis niloticus to Aeromonas hydrophila. Diets containing 0% (P0), 0.25% (P1), 0.50% (P2), 0.75% (P3) and 1.00% (P4) PGE were fed to triplicate groups of fish (mean weight; 1.32 ± 0.04 g) for 84 days. After the 84‐day feeding trial, test fish were injected with pathogenic A. hydrophila and then fed for 14 days. More feed were consumed in groups of fish fed PGE‐treated diets and resulted in significantly higher weight gain and feed intake. Incidentally, there was an increase in the calculated area of absorption of fish fed PGE diets, as accounted for by marginally higher villi length and width. Antioxidant and immune response were improved with PGE inclusion in diets as total protein, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S‐transferase significantly increased (p < 0.05) in fish fed PGE diets. Results of the challenge test with A. hydrophila revealed that the highest mortality (100%) was recorded in P0. This study revealed that inclusion of P. guajava extract in the diet of O. niloticus improved growth, nutrient utilization, immune system and survival of O. niloticus fingerlings. 相似文献

Effects of various concentrations of Scutellaria baicalensis (SB) extract in diets on growth, body composition, serum chemistry and disease challenge test of far eastern catfish (Silurus asotus) were determined and compared with a commercially available immune enhancer. Eight experimental diets were prepared in triplicate: control (Con) diet without supplementation of SB and SB‐0.25, SB‐0.5, SB‐1, SB‐2, SB‐3 and SB‐5 diets containing SB at concentrations of 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 5%, respectively. In addition, 0.1% of a commercial immune enhancer product (CP) was also tested. No significant difference in weight gain of fish was found. Feed consumption, feed efficiency ratio and protein retention of fish were not affected by the experimental diets. At the end of the 8‐week feeding trial, 10 externally normal fish from each tank were infected by Vibrio anguillarum or Strepotococcus iniae. Cumulative mortality of fish fed the Con diet was higher than that of fish fed the all other diets in 10 and 25 days after V. anguillarum or S. iniae infection. Results of this study indicated that dietary inclusion of SB extract was effective in improving survival of eastern catfish after V. anguillarum and S. iniae infection, but the various concentrations of SB did not affect fish performance. 相似文献

Mucins are large glycoproteins that cover epithelial surfaces of the body and play important roles in prevention of inflammatory and various infectious diseases. In this study, five membrane‐bound and seven secreted mucin genes in the channel catfish were identified. All these identified mucin genes possess at least one PTS, von Willebrand D (VWD) or SEA domains. The expression of the 12 mucin genes in channel catfish was first studied with infection of Edwardsiella ictaluri and Flavobacterium columnare. Expression difference in MUC13a, MUC13, MUC2 and MUC5b was found in the intestine after E. ictaluri infection. Eight mucin gene expressions (except MUC3a, MUC2, MUC4 and MUC5f) were up‐regulated at 4 hr and down‐regulated after 24 hr in the gill with F. columnare infection. Expression level of MUC2 gene was up‐regulated in the intestine with E. ictaluri infection without no significant change in the gill under the F. columnare infection, which indicate that MUC2 is tissue‐specific gene expression and has different immune respond to two bacterial challenge. Taken together, the study showed mucin from the gill by F. columnare challenge induced an obvious response than mucin from the intestine with E. ictaluri infection. 相似文献

A 70‐day experiment was conducted to examine the effects of different macroalgal meals and lipid sources on growth, body wall composition and fatty acid (FA) profile of sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus. Two macroalgal meals including Sargassum muticum (SM) and Gracilaria lemaneiformis (GL) and two lipid sources including fish oil (FO) and vegetable oil (VO) were formulated into four diets, i.e., S. muticum and fish oil (SF), S. muticum and vegetable oil (SV), G. lemaneiformis and fish oil (GF) and G. lemaneiformis and vegetable oil (GV). The results showed that the specific growth rates (SGR) of A. japonicus fed diets containing SM were significantly higher than those fed diets containing GL. No significant differences in SGR between the FO‐based and VO‐based groups were observed. Similar results were observed in the body wall lipid content. Most body wall FAs changed to resemble the dietary FA proportions because of the dietary effect. Concentrations of 20:4n‐6 of the SF and GF groups were significantly lower than the SV and GV groups, while levels of 20:5n‐3 and 22:6n‐3 were significantly higher than the SV and GV groups. The n‐3/n‐6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) ratios of the SF and GF groups were significantly higher than the SV and GV groups. Moreover, the SF group had significantly higher 20:5n‐3 and 22:6n‐3 contents and n‐3/n‐6 PUFAs ratio than the GF group. These findings reveal that the SF diet can show beneficial effects on both growth performance and body wall n‐3 PUFAs content of A. japonicus. 相似文献

In this experiment, a feeding trial was performed to determine the effects of fructooligosaccharide (FOS) on growth performance, digestive enzyme activity and immune response of Japanese sea bass, Lateolabrax japonicus juveniles (initial weight 38.3 ± 0.5 g), and the fish were examined following feeding with six levels of FOS (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 6 g/kg) for 28 days. Significant enhancement of weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR) was found in fish fed 1 g/kg FOS incorporated diets (p < .05), while the feed conversion ratio (FCR) in the 1, 2 g/kg FOS groups reduced significantly compared with the control (p < .05). Besides, the crude lipid in the 4, 6 g/kg FOS groups increased significantly compared with the control (p < .05). On the other hand, the erepsin and lipase activities significantly elevated in intestine of fish fed 2 g/kg FOS (p < .05) and the lysozyme activity in serum of fish fed 2 g/kg FOS were significantly higher than that in the control (p < .05). Moreover, the alkaline phosphatase activities in serum of fish fed 0.5, 1, 2 g/kg FOS were significantly higher than in control (p < .05). Regression analysis showed that the relationships between dietary FOS levels and either SGR, FCR, erepsin or lysozyme activities were best expressed by regression equations, and the optimal inclusion levels are 1.37, 1.80, 3.06, 3.11, 1.93 and 1.80 g/kg for SGR, FCR, erepsin, lipase, lysozyme and total superoxide dismutase activities, respectively. Overall, this study revealed that FOS incorporated diets could beneficial for L. japonicus culture in terms of increasing the growth, digestion and immune activities. Under the present experimental condition, the optimal supplementary level of FOS in the diet of L. japonicus is 1–3 g/kg. 相似文献

The expression of immune‐related genes and immune responses to Aeromonas hydrophila were investigated on Oreochromis niloticus (6.07 ± 0.07 g), by feeding them six different diets for 8 weeks to apparent satiation. Diets contained fish oil (60g/kg FO), virgin coconut oil (60g/kg VCO) and corn oil (60g/kg CO) as sole lipids or blends of 30g/kg FO + 30g/kg VCO (3FVCO), 30g/kg FO + 30g/kg CO (3FCO) and 30g/kg VCO + 30g/kg CO (VO). Fish fed 3FCO recorded higher final weight, percentage weight gain (%WG) and specific growth rate (%SGR) but not significantly higher than all other groups. Triglyceride was higher in fish fed 3FCO than 3FVCO and CO (p ? 0.05), whereas total immunoglobulin (TIg) was not significant (p ? 0.05) between groups. Lysozyme activity was significantly higher in fish fed diet CO while groups FO, 3FCO and VCO recorded the least activities (p ? 0.05). Although alternative complement activity (ACH50), complement proteins (C3 and C4), was not influenced, antibody titre production was significantly higher in fish fed diet 3FCO and lower in group CO. mRNA expression of IL‐1β was significantly upregulated in fish fed VO while the expression of C‐type lysozyme and TGF‐β was not significantly influenced across treatments, although group fed FO recorded higher expression levels, respectively. Lower mortalities of fish were recorded in groups fed 3FCO and VO after 14 days postchallenge with A. hydrophila disease indicating the enhancing effects of vegetable oils to boost immune response and resistance to disease. The study concludes that alternative lipid sources with high polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs‐ALA and LA) (CO) and blend of saturated fatty acids (SFA)(VCO) can partially and or exclusively replace FO with an improved effect on tilapia and resistance to A. hydrophila in tilapia. 相似文献

Molecular cloning of heat shock protein 60 from Marsupenaeus japonicus and its expression profiles at early developmental stages and response to heat stress 下载免费PDF全文
下载免费PDF全文 Water temperature is an essential environmental factor in aquaculture that affects many aspects of organism, and a rise in water temperature stresses aquatic animals. HSP60 is a major component of the chaperone system and plays an important role in stress response. In this study, the full‐length cDNA sequence of HSP60 from Marsupenaeus japonicus was cloned for the first time, and the tissue distributions and expression profiles of MjHSP60 at the early developmental stages of M. japonicus and under heat stress were verified by qRT‐PCR. The full‐length cDNA sequence of MjHSP60 was 2,303 bp with the deduced amino acid (AA) sequence of 579 AA. MjHSP60 was expressed in all eight tested tissues of M. japonicus and was mainly expressed in the hepatopancreas under normal condition. MjHSP60 was expressed in all of the early developmental stages examined from the fertilized egg to the post‐larval stage, and the expression level of MjHSP60 peaked at zoea II and reached a trough at the transition periods between each two stages (N and M1) and showed a relatively stable expression level at the post‐larval stage. The expression level of MjHSP60 was significantly up‐regulated in the gills, muscle, heart, hepatopancreas and stomach at 3 hr post‐heat‐stress and showed varied sensitivity to heat stress. The expression profile of MjHSP60 in the hepatopancreas and gill showed a time‐dependent manner post‐heat‐stress and peaked at 3 hr post‐heat‐stress. The present study provided a basis for further studies for elucidating the function of MjHSP60 in the heat stress response and the early developmental stages of M. japonicus. 相似文献
