A comparative proteomic analysis was employed to identify altered proteins in the yellow head virus (YHV) infected lymphoid organ (LO) of Penaeus monodon. At 24 h post-infection, the infected shrimps showed obvious signs of infection, while the control shrimps remained healthy. Two-dimensional electrophoresis of proteins extracted from the LO revealed significant alterations in abundance of several proteins in the infected group. Protein identification by MALDI-TOF MS and nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS revealed significant increase of transglutaminase, protein disulfide isomerase, ATP synthase beta subunit, V-ATPase subunit A, and hemocyanin fragments. A significant decrease was also identified for Rab GDP-dissociation inhibitor, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, actin, fast tropomyosin isoform, and hemolymph clottable protein. Some of these altered proteins were further investigated at the mRNA level using real-time RT-PCR, which confirmed the proteomic data. Identification of these altered proteins in the YHV-infected shrimps may provide novel insights into the molecular responses of P. monodon to YHV infection. 相似文献

Histological, cytochemical and ultrastructural changes in giant black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon were investigated at various time intervals after injection with yellow head virus (YHV). Hemocytes, lymphoid organs (LO) and gills were the main focus of the study. After injection with YHV, onset of mortality varied from 36 h onward. By normal hematoxylin and eosin staining, the 3 tissues showed clear and increasing prevalence of nuclear condensation, pyknosis and karyorrhexis from approximately 36 h post-injection (p.i.) until death, although pathology was evident in the LO as early as 12 h p.i. in some shrimp. By nuclear DNA staining with 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and by specific labeling of 3'-OH ends of nuclear DNA using a technique called terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxy-UTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL), cells of the 3 tissues showed evidence of chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation, respectively. Both are generally considered to be characteristic of apoptosis. In addition to TUNEL labeling, evidence for DNA fragmentation was supported by the appearance of approximately 200 base pair DNA ladders at approximately 48 h p.i. in hemocytes of YHV-infected but not uninfected shrimp. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of LO tissue revealed features of apoptosis in tissues of YHV-infected shrimp only. These included marginated, condensed and fragmented chromatin without concurrent cytoplasmic damage. Histological, cytochemical, ultrastructural and biochemical data were consistent with the hypothesis that widespread and progressive apoptosis occurred in susceptible shrimp infected with YHV. Although no specific tests were carried out to determine whether this purported apoptosis was the cause of mortality, moribund shrimp had extensive deterioration of vital tissues such as the hemolymph, gills, heart and LO, suggesting that many essential bodily functions had been severely compromised. This probably resulted in the gross signs of lethargy and weakness seen, and it is reasonable to suggest that further, progressive deterioration could have led to the collapse of vital functions followed by death. 相似文献

The changes in the histological and three dimensional organizations of lymphoid organ and characteristics of lymphoid cells after chronic infection with yellow head virus (YHV) in Penaeus monodon were investigated. The vascular cast of infected lymphoid organ showed less branching and dramatically shortened terminal capillaries that formed the lymphoid tubules, and only large stumps of these lymphoid tubules remained. This might occur because the terminal ends of the tubules were damaged from YHV infection, as stromal cells and hemocytes in the LT wall were infected and formed foci that could give rise to lymphoid spheroids that broke away from the original lymphoid tubules. Histologically, there was a decrease of PAS-stained connective tissue materials in lymphoid spheroids as well as a decrease of stromal cells as marked by anti-vimentin antibody. This indicated that stromal cells together with type 1 fibers and associated extracellular matrix degenerated in lymphoid spheroids, while type 2 or reticular fibers proliferated and encapsulated the spheroids. 相似文献

An expressed sequence tag (EST) library was constructed from hemocytes of the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) to identify genes associated with immunity in this economically important species. The number of complementary DNA clones in the constructed library was approximately 4 x 10(5). Of these, 615 clones having inserts larger than 500 bp were unidirectionally sequenced and analyzed by homology searches against data in GenBank. Significant homology to known genes was found in 314 (51%) of the 615 clones, but the remaining 301 sequences (49%) did not match any sequence in GenBank. Approximately 35% of the matched ESTs were significantly identified by the BLASTN and BLASTX programs, while 65% were recognized only by the BLASTX program. Of the 615 clones, 55 (8.9%) were identified as putative immune-related genes. The isolated genes were composed of those coding for enzymes and proteins in the clotting system and the prophenoloxidase-activating system, antioxidative enzymes, antimicrobial peptides, and serine proteinase inhibitors. Three full-length ESTs encoding antimicrobial peptides (antilipopolysaccharide and penaeidin homologues) and a heat shock protein (cpn10 homologue) are reported. 相似文献

A monoclonal antibody specific to yellow head virus (YHV) was produced from a mouse immunized with gill extracts prepared from laboratory-reared Penaeus monodon dually infected with YHV and white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). One clone designated V3-2B specifically bound to native and SDS-treated viral specific antigens. Immunocytochemical studies of infected gills revealed viral specific immunoreactivities in the cytoplasm of gill tissue and in haemocytes. No antibody binding was observed in gills from non-infected shrimp. In addition, immunocytochemical examination of tissues from shrimp experimentally infected with YHV gave a positive reaction, while tissues from uninfected control shrimp or shrimp experimentally infected with WSSV did not. Western blot analysis indicated that the antibody reacted with a protein of approximately 135 kD that was present only in shrimp infected with YHV. In dot-blot indirect immunoperoxidase assays, the antibody was able to detect viral associated antigen in diluted haemolymph up to 1:50 dilution and in an ammonium sulfate precipitate of haemolymph up to 1:1000 dilution. The results suggested that this antibody might be useful for development of effective diagnostic techniques for both heavy and mild YHV infections in shrimp. 相似文献

This work constitutes the second report from a continuing investigation of shrimp genes that may be involved in apoptosis associated death resulting from yellow head virus (YHV) infection. Here, we describe from the black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon, a ribophorin I-like gene that is probably a subunit of the oligosaccharyltransferase complex (OST), a key enzyme in N-linked glycosylation that occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum. The OST complex also contains DAD1 (defender against apoptotic death 1) that has been reported to control apoptosis and that we have previously reported from P. monodon. The full length ribophorin I of P. monodon comprised 2157 bp with the ORF of 1806 bp corresponding to 601 deduced amino acids and three putative N-linked glycosylation sites. Analysis revealed hydrophobic properties implying that it could be a membrane protein. Tissue distribution analysis using real-time RT-PCR with SYBR Green revealed that ribophorin I was endogenously expressed in all examined tissues of normal shrimp. However, unlike DAD1 that was down-regulated after YHV challenge, ribophorin I expression was up-regulated and remained high until the moribund stage. 相似文献

Yellow head virus is a highly pathogenic agent that can cause a fatal disease in several species of penaeid shrimps. Using a primary cell culture and an in vitro quantal assay (TCID50), this study sought to determine the propagation profile of yellow head virus after inoculation at a low multiplicity of infection in the lymphoid tissue (oka organ) of Penaeus monodon. Detectable levels of virus were present as early as 24 h post-inoculation. Maximal viral yields were reached by 4 d post-infection, approximately 24 h after the onset of a detectable cytopathic effect, which was normally observable at 3 d post-inoculation. The methodology provides a useful tool for studying yellow head virus-host-cell interactions. 相似文献

Yellow head virus (YHV) is an invertebrate nidovirus that has caused mass mortality of cultured Penaeus monodon in Asia. In this study, we investigated whether mouse polyclonal antiserum raised against the YHV gp116 or gp64 structural glycoproteins could neutralize YHV infectivity as determined using an in vitro quantal assay in primary cultures of lymphoid organ cells. Anti-gp116 antiserum showed virus-neutralizing activity whereas anti-gp64 antiserum failed to inhibit infection. The results suggest that gpl16 antiserum blocks binding of virions to cellular receptors to facilitate YHV entry into lymphoid organ cells. 相似文献

Four suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) cDNA libraries were constructed to identify differentially expressed salinity stress responsive genes of black tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon exposed to high (55 ppt) salinity conditions. One each of the forward and reverse SSH cDNA libraries were developed from the gill and gut tissues of shrimp and clones having inserts larger than 300 bp were unidirectionally sequenced. Based on the sequence homology search, the identified genes were categorized for their putative functions related to a wide range of biological roles, such as nucleic acid regulation and replication, immune response, energy and metabolism, signal transduction, cellular process, structural and membrane proteins, stress and osmoregulation. Gene expression levels in response to high salinity conditions at 2 weeks post salinity stress for some of the differentially expressed genes (Na+/K+-ATPase α-subunit, glutathione peroxidase, intracellular fatty acid binding protein, elongation factor 2, 14-3-3 like protein, penaeidin, translationally controlled tumor protein, transglutaminase and serine proteinase inhibitor B3) identified from SSH cDNA libraries were analysed by real-time RT-PCR. The highest gene expression levels was observed for Na+/K+-ATPase α-subunit in gill tissues (15.23-folds) and antennal glands (12.01-folds) and intracellular fatty acid binding protein in gut tissues (14.05-folds) respectively. The differential and significant levels of gene expression indicate the functional role of these genes in shrimp salinity stress adaptive mechanisms. 相似文献

By screening differentially expressed genes in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells by subtractive hybridization, we identified three conserved but uncharacterized genes encoding bromodomain containing 3 (BRD3), protein lysine methyltransferase (PLM), and kelch domain containing 2 (KLHDC2), which were downregulated during endothelial differentiation. An RNA blot study showed that these genes were markedly expressed in undifferentiated ES cells, whereas the expression was reduced upon endothelial differentiation; a study of mouse endothelium showed a significant reduction in the expression of BRD3. A study of human BRD3, located on chromosome 9 at q34, a region susceptible to genomic rearrangement, showed an altered expression in 4 of 12 patients with bladder cancer, compared with adjacent noncancerous tissues. Taken together with the result of siRNA inhibition showing the positive regulation of cell proliferation by BRD3, it is suggested that this molecule plays a role in allowing cells to enter the proliferative phase of the angiogenic process. 相似文献

The cellular signal-transduction process is largely controlled by protein phosphorylation. Shrimp infected with yellow head virus show dramatic changes in their hemocyte phosphoproteomic patterns, and aberrant activation of phosphorylation-based signaling networks has been implicated in a number of diseases. In this study, we focused on phosphorylation of Penaeus monodon myosin regulatory light chain (PmMRLC) that is induced at an early hour post YHV infection and is concomitant with cellular actin remodeling. In shrimp cell cultures, this phosphorylation was inhibited by the myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) inhibitors ML-7 and ML-9, suggesting that PmMLC phosphorylation is MLCK pathway-dependent. Blocking PmMRLC phosphorylation resulted in increased replication of YHV and reduction of phagocytic activities of shrimp hemocytes called semigranular cells (SGC) and granular cells (GC). Injection of MLCK inhibitors prior to YHV challenge resulted in dose-dependent elevation in quantity of YHV-positive GC and cytoplasmic YHV protein, coincident with high shrimp mortality. Altogether, we demonstrated that PmMRLC phosphorylation increases after YHV infection in shrimp and that inhibition of the phosphorylation leads to increased YHV replication, reduced hemocyte phagocytic activity (probably through actin remodeling) and subsequent shrimp death. Thus, further studies on the MLCK activation pathway may lead to new strategies in development and implementation of therapy for YHV infections in shrimp. 相似文献

We investigated variations in the gene expression of Bombyx mori following infection with a densonucleosis virus (BmDNV-Z). Two B. mori near-isogenic lines, Jingsong and Jingsong.nsd-Z.NIL, which are highly susceptible and completely resistant to BmDNV-Z, respectively, were used in this study. The infection profiles of BmDNV-Z in the midguts of the B. mori Jingsong and Jingsong.nsd-Z.NIL larvae revealed that the virus invaded the midguts of both of these strains. However, its proliferation was notably inhibited in the midgut of the resistant strain. By using the suppression subtractive hybridization method, three cDNA libraries were constructed to compare BmDNV-Z responsive gene expression between the two silkworm lines. In total, 151 differentially expressed genes were obtained. Real-time qPCR analysis confirmed that 11 genes were significantly up-regulated in the midgut of the Jingsong.nsd-Z.NIL strain following BmDNV-Z infection. Our results imply that these up-regulated genes might be involved in B. mori immune responses against BmDNV infection. 相似文献

Gill-associated virus (GAV) is a nidovirus that commonly infects Penaeus monodon (black tiger shrimp) in eastern Australia, causing morbidity and mortalities in the acute stage of disease. Here we explored the possibility of inhibiting GAV replication and disease using double-stranded (ds)RNAs expressed in bacteria and delivered either orally or by muscle injection. To enhance potential RNA interference (RNAi) responses, 5 long dsRNAs were used that targeted open reading frame 1a/1b (ORF1a/b) gene regions and thus only the genomic length RNA. To examine oral delivery, P. monodon were fed pellets incorporating a pool of formalin-fixed bacteria containing the 5 GAV-specific dsRNAs before being injected with a minimal lethal GAV dose. Feeding with the pellets continued post-challenge but did not reduce mortality accumulation and elevation in GAV loads. In contrast, muscle injection of the dsRNAs purified from bacteria was highly effective at slowing GAV replication and protecting shrimp against acute disease and mortalities. In synergy with these data, dsRNA targeted to P. monodon beta-actin mRNA caused 100% mortality following injection, whilst its oral delivery caused no mortality. Findings confirm that injected dsRNA can mount effective RNAi responses in P. monodon to endogenous shrimp mRNA and exogenous viral RNAs, but when delivered orally in bacteria as a feed component, the same dsRNAs are ineffective. The efficacy of the RNAi response against GAV provided by injection of dsRNAs targeted to multiple genome sites suggests that this strategy might have general applicability in enhancing protection against other shrimp single-stranded (ss)RNA viruses, particularly in hatcheries or breeding programs where injection-based delivery systems are practical. 相似文献
