Abstract
Peroxiredoxin1(Prx1), also known as natural killer enhancing factor A (NKEF-A), is a crucial antioxidant involving in various cellular activities and immune response against bacterial and viral infection in fish. In the present study, a full-length Prx1 cDNA sequence (TfPrx1) was firstly cloned from roughskin sculpin (Trachidermus fasciatus), which was composed of 1044 bp nucleotides encoding a peptide of 199 amino acids with a molecular weight of 22.35 kDa and a theoretical pI of 6.42, respectively. The predicted peptide was a typical 2-cys Prx containing two conserved characteristic motifs 43FYPLDFTFVCPTEI56 and 170GEVCPA175 with the two conserved peroxidatic and resolving cysteine residuals forming disulfide bond. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that TfPrx1 was ubiquitously expressed in all tested tissues with the highest expression in the intestine. It could be significantly induced following LPS injection and heavy metal exposure. Recombinant TfPrx1 (rTfPrx1) displayed insulin disulfide reduction and ROS-scavenging activity in a concentration-dependent manner, and further exhibited DNA and cytoprotective effects under oxidative stress. These results suggested that TfPrx1 protein may play an important role in fish immune protection from oxidative damage.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023:108915. [PMID: 37355217 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.108915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/26/2023]
Abstract
Peroxiredoxin-4 from Penaeus vannamei (LvPrx4) is considered a damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) that can activate the expression of immune-related genes through the Toll pathway. We previously demonstrated that the recombinant LvPrx4 (rLvPrx4) can enhance shrimp resistance against Vibrio parahaemolyticus, causing acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (VPAHPND), which causes great production losses in shrimp farming. Herein, we showed that the rLvPrx4 had a thermal tolerance of around 60 °C and that the ionic strength had no noticeable effect on its activity. We discovered that feeding a diet containing rLvPrx4 to shrimp for three weeks increased the expression of the immune-related genes LvPEN4 and LvVago5. Furthermore, pre-treatment with rLvPrx4 feeding could significantly prolong shrimp survival following the VPAHPND challenge. The shrimp intestinal microbiome was then characterized using PCR amplification of the 16S rRNA gene and Illumina sequencing. Three weeks of rLvPrx4 supplementation altered the bacterial community structure (beta diversity) and revealed the induction of differentially abundant families, including Cryomorphaceae, Flavobacteriaceae, Pirellulaceae, Rhodobacteraceae, and Verrucomicrobiaceae, in the rLvPrx4 group. Metagenomic predictions indicated that some amino acid metabolism pathways, such as arginine and proline metabolism, and genetic information processing were significantly elevated in the rLvPrx4 group compared to the control group. This study is the first to describe the potential use of rLvPrx4 supplementation to enhance shrimp resistance to VPAHPND and alter the composition of a beneficial bacterial community in shrimp, making rLvPrx4 a promising feed supplement as an alternative to antibiotics for controlling VPAHPND infection in shrimp aquaculture.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) widely exist in organisms and can prevent oxidative damage. Here, the characterization and biological function of NdPrx3 from Neocaridina denticulata sinensis were analyzed. The coding sequence of NdPrx3 consists of 684 bp open reading frame (ORF), encoding 227 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 24.7 kDa and theoretical pI 6.49. Multiple sequence alignments showed that the conserved domains of NdPrx3, including catalytic triad, dimer interface, decamer interface, peroxidatic, and resolving cysteines, were similar to those of other organisms. The phylogenetic relationship demonstrated that NdPrx3 clustered in the Prx3 class. The highest relative expression of NdPrx3 mRNA was confirmed in gill among the nine tissues from healthy shrimp. The transcript level of NdPrx3 was significantly upregulated from 0 h to 48 h and decreased in 72 h under copper challenge, indicating that NdPrx3 may play an important role in the copper challenge of N. denticulata sinensis. In addition, NdPrx3 was recombinantly expressed in E. coli and purified to one band on SDS-PAGE. The DNA protection of rNdPrx3 was verified. The enzymatic assay of the recombinant NdPrx3 indicated that it had the oxidoreductase function and was stable at a low temperature (10-30 °C).

Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11030440. [PMID: 35326091 PMCID: PMC8944765 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11030440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Salinity is one of the important environmental factors affecting survival and growth of aquatic animals. However, the impact of low-salinity stress on M. rosenbergii post-larvae at different development stages remains elusive. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the underlying mechanisms of hypotonic stress at different development stages of M. rosenbergii post-larvae through transcriptome analysis and antioxidant parameters detection. The salinity of the control group was 15 psu (S15) and the hypotonic stress group was 6 psu (S6). Samples were collected at 7 days-post-hatch (dph), 14 dph and 21 dph larvae. The results showed that hypotonic stress caused oxidative damage in post-larvae evidenced by decreased glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px); superoxide dismutase (SOD); anti-superoxide anion free radical (ASAFR); and increased malondialdehyde (MDA); nitric oxide (NO); and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) levels. Transcriptome analysis showed that there were 1428, 1187, 132 DEGs including 301, 366, 4 up-regulated genes and 1127, 821, 128 down-regulated genes at 7 dph, 14 dph and 21 dph larvae under hypotonic stress, respectively. Furthermore, GO and KEGG enrichment indicated that hypotonic stress led to dysregulation of immune signals including lysosome and autophagy in the 7 dph larvae. The autophagy-related genes including beclin 1-associated autophagy-related key regulator (Barkor); ubiquitin-like modifier-activating enzyme ATG7 (ATG7); Beclin; autophagy-related protein 13 (ATG13); nuclear receptor-binding factor 2 (Nrbf2); ubiquitin-like-conjugating enzyme ATG3 (ATG3); vacuole membrane protein 1 (VMP1); and autophagy-related protein 2 (ATG2) decreased at 7 dph, and 14 dph larvae, and then increased at 21 dph larvae under hypotonic stress. In the 14 dph and 21 dph larvae, the renin-angiotensin system was activated. In conclusion, our data indicated that hypotonic stress reduced the antioxidant capacity and impaired the immune system in post-larvae, but as development progresses, the adaptability of post-larvae to hypotonic stress gradually increased, and might reach a new homeostasis through the RAS signaling pathway.

Abstract
A 65-day growth trial was conducted to investigate the dietary protein requirements for Culter mongolicus fingerlings. Isolipidic and isoenergetic diets were formulated with five dietary protein levels (32%, 37%, 42%, 47%, and 52%). Each diet was assigned to triplicate groups of 70 C. mongolicus fingerlings (0.99±0.08 g). The results indicated that weight gain and specific growth rate (SGR) increased with increasing dietary protein levels up to 47%. The activities of intestinal trypsin and lipase were the lowest in the 32% protein and 52% protein groups, while amylase activity reduced markedly in the 47% protein group. These results suggest that different dietary protein levels may cause different transformations of nutrients. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and lysozyme were not affected by varying dietary protein levels, except for those in the 32% protein group. In contrast, the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) increased with increasing dietary protein levels and reaching a maximum in the 52% protein group, suggesting that MDA accumulation depends on the protein concentration and the potential oxidative stress. Taken together, based on the broken-line analysis of SGR, we recommended the optimum dietary protein for C. mongolicus fingerlings to be 48.97%~49.31%.

Abstract
IgA nephropathy (IgAN), membranous nephropathy (MN), and lupus nephritis (LN) represent important causes of chronic kidney disease. They belong to the immune-mediated glomerulonephritis (GNs), and have distinct pathogenesis, distinct clinical courses, and variable responses to treatment. Therefore, specific diagnostic procedures are necessary for more effective patient management. Recently, a role for oxidative stress has been proposed in various renal disorders. Thus, molecules related to oxidative stress, such as 2-Cys-peroxiredoxins (PRDXs), may represent plausible candidates for biomarkers in renal pathologies. The aim of this study was to assess whether there are differences between individual GNs and healthy controls in the context of PRDXs serum concentration. We enrolled 108 patients with biopsy-proven IgAN (47), MN (26), LN (35) and 30 healthy age- and sex-matched controls. The serum concentrations of PRDX 1-5 were measured with ELISA assays and correlated with demographic and clinical data. The PRDXs' concentration varied depending on the GN type. We also observed an association of PRDXs with lower estimated glomerular filtration rates, complement, hemoglobin, and body mass index. Our study indicates that individual PRDX can play roles in pathophysiology of selected GNs and that their serum concentrations may become useful as a new supplementary diagnostic markers in IgAN, MN as well as LN. The results of this study open a new avenue for prospective research on PRDXs in renal diseases.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are a group of evolutionarily conserved selenium-independent thiol-specific antioxidant proteins. In this study, the peroxiredoxin-4 (CiPrx4) gene from grass carp was identified and characterized. The full-length of CiPrx4 is 1339 bp, encoding 260 amino acids that contain two peroxiredoxin signature motifs and two GVL motifs. CiPrx4 belongs to the typical 2-Cys subfamily and shows the highest homology with Prx4 from Cyprinus carpio (95.4%). CiPrx4 mRNA was constitutively expressed in all tested tissues and was upregulated by grass carp reovirus and pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) stimulation. CiPrx4 was localized in the cytoplasm and co-localized with the endoplasmic reticulum. The purified CiPrx4 protein protected DNA from degradation in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the overexpression of CiPrx4 in Escherichia coli and fish cells showed apparent antioxidant and antiviral activities. Collectively, the results of the present study provide new insights for further understanding the functions of Prx4 in teleost fish.

Abstract
The aim of this review was to summarize the current knowledge regarding the effects of aeromonosis on fish oxidative status. The bibliographic survey was carried out on the research platforms: Scopus and Science Direct. The keywords 'Aeromonas', 'fish' and 'oxidative status' (or 'oxidative stress', 'oxidative damage' and similar terms) were used. Scientific papers and short communications were considered. Studies involving fish aeromonosis and enzymatic or non-enzymatic markers of oxidative status were selected. The results of antioxidant enzymes activities/expressions after infection lack consistency, suggesting that these findings should be interpreted with caution. Most of the analysed studies pointed to an increase in reactive oxygen species, malondialdehyde and protein carbonylation levels, indicating possible oxidative damage caused by the infection. Thus, these three biomarkers are excellent indicators of oxidative stress during infection. Regarding respiratory burst activity, several studies have indicated increased activity, but other studies have indicated unchanged activity after infection. Nitric oxide levels also increased after infection in most studies. Therefore, it is suggested that the fish's immune system tries to fight a bacterial infection by releasing reactive oxygen and nitrogen species.

Abstract
This study was aimed to investigate the facilitation of anthraquinone extract on growth performance, immunity, and antioxidant capacity of the oriental river prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense), and whether it could ameliorate the hyperthermia stress. A 12-week rearing experiment was conducted with 0, 125, 250, 500, and 1000 mg kg-1 anthraquinone extract from Rheum officinale Bail-supplemented diets (AE0, AE125, AE250, AE500, and AE1000), and followed a 48-h thermal stress with 32℃ incubation. Results indicate AE250 and AE500 significantly improved the growth performance and feed utilization, the optimum level was estimated to be 251.22 mg kg-1 based on the regression analysis of special growth ratio (SGR). Meanwhile, AE250 and AE500 improved antioxidant enzyme activity and immune-related protein concentration of iNOS-NO signaling. Under thermal stress, AE250 and AE500 improved the heat tolerance, and Toll-Relish signaling was active to the resistance. These results indicate anthraquinone extract could be used as an effective immunostimulant to improve growth performance, physiological balance and protect organism form environmental hyperthermia stress. This may provide insights for immunostimulant development in aquaculture production.

Large yellow croaker peroxiredoxin IV protect cells against oxidative damage and apoptosis. Mol Immunol 2020; 127:150-156.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and inflammation lead to cell damage and are implicated in many disease states. High concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) may mediate cells apoptosis by increasing intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. In this study, we established a LYCK-PrxIV cell line (large yellow croaker head kidney cell line stably expressing peroxiredoxin IV). The level of nitric oxide (NO), superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in this LYCK-PrxIV cells were significantly lower than those in control cells of LYCK-pcDNA3.1 (LYCK cell line stably transfected by pcDNA3.1 vector). Additionally, when exposed to H2O2, cell apoptosis was significantly alleviated in LYCK-PrxIV than in control cells. Meanwhile, the ROS level and ATP content were maintained more stable in LYCK-PrxIV than in LYCK-pcDNA3.1. The over-expression of LcPrxIV in LYCK-PrxIV cells induced a declined mRNA expression of LcCXC, LcCC, LcIL-8 and LcTNF-α2, as well as an increase of LcIL-10 mRNA expression, when compared to LYCK-pcDNA3.1. On the other hand, the expression of chemokine LcCXC, LcCC and LcTNF-a2 increased in LYCK-pcDNA3.1 after H2O2 stimulation, while that of LcIL-8 and LcIL-10 decreased. The regualtion of gene expression in LYCK-PrxIV cells was almost the same as that in LYCK-pcDNA3.1, but the change fold was much more moderate. These results suggest that LcPrxIV may be an indispensable ROS scavenger protecting LYCK cells against oxidative damage as well as the subsequent apoptosis and inflammatory response, which provides a clue that LcPrxIV may be an assist in fish immune response.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxin (Prx), also named thioredoxin peroxidase (TPx), is a selenium independent antioxidant enzyme that can protect organisms from oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is important for immune responses. In this study, the molecular cloning and characterization of a Prx2 homologue (CiPrx2) were described from grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). The full-length cDNA of CiPrx2 was 1163 bp containing 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of 52 bp, a 3'-UTR of 517 bp with the putative polyadenylation consensus signal (AATAAA), an open reading frame (ORF) of 594 bp encoding polypeptides of 197 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 21.84 kDa and theoretical isoelectric point of 5.93. The analysis results of multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree confirmed that CiPrx2 belong to the typical 2-Cys Prx subfamily. The CiPrx2 mRNA was ubiquitously expressed in all tested tissues. The temporal expression of CiPrx2 were differentially induced infected with grass carp reovirus (GCRV), polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in liver and spleen. Subcellular localization of CiPrx2-GFP fusion proteins were only distributed in the cytoplasm. The purified recombinant CiPrx2 possessed an apparent antioxidant activity and could protect DNA against oxidative damage. Finally, CiPrx2 proteins could obviously inhibit H2O2 and heavy metal toxicity. However, further researches are needed to better understand the regulation of CiPrx2 under oxidative stresses.

Abstract
The fourth member of the typical 2-cysteine peroxiredoxin (Prx4) is a well-known antioxidant enzyme, which reduces different peroxides in their catalytic process. The present study reports the identification of the rockfish Sebastes schlegelii Prx4 (SsPrx4) at a genomic level, as well as the characterization of its structural and functional features. SsPrx4 harbors a complete ORF of 786 bp encoding a polypeptide (29 kDa) of 262 amino acids (aa) with an isoelectric point of 6.2. Thioredoxin 2 domain was prominent in the SsPrx4 sequence, which has a signal peptide (31 bp) at the N-terminus. Hence, the SsPrx4 may be functionally active in the cytoplasm of rockfish cells. Moreover, two VCP motifs and three catalytic triad residues (112T, 115C, 191R) were identified in the SsPrx4 protein sequence. A peroxidatic cysteine (115CP) and resolving cysteines (236CR) were detected at the VCP motifs. The rockfish Prx4 genome consists of seven exons, which are similar to the architecture of other Prx4 orthologs. The deduced amino acid sequence of SsPrx4 shares a relatively high amino acid sequence identity (91.6%) and close evolutionary relationship with Miichthys miiuy and Stegastes partitus Prx4. The potential for scavenging extracellular H2O2 was evidenced by the purified recombinant SsPrx4 protein (rSsPrx4) in vitro system. Moreover, rSsPrx4 may protect the plasmid DNA in a metal-catalyzed oxidation system and catalyze the reduction of an insulin disulfide bond. Quantitative real-time PCR revealed that SsPrx4 mRNA was ubiquitously expressed in fourteen different tissues, with the highest expression observed in the liver followed by the ovary, and kidney tissues. Transcriptional modulations were observed in liver and spleen tissues of rockfish after injecting them with bacterial stimuli, including Streptococcus iniae, LPS, and a viral mimic of poly I:C. Together, the results suggest that SsPrx4 may play an important role in both the antioxidant and innate immune defense of black rockfish. These findings provide structural and functional insights into the SsPrx4 of the teleost.
