Abstract
IMPORTANCE In this study, Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains were collected from a large number of aquatic products globally and found that temperature has an impact on the virulence of these bacteria. As global temperatures rise, mutations in a gene marker called thermolabile hemolysin (tlh) also increase. This suggests that environmental isolates adapt to the warming environment and become more pathogenic. The findings can help in developing tools to analyze and monitor these bacteria as well as assess any link between climate change and vibrio-associated diseases, which could be used for forecasting outbreaks associated with them.

A novel scavenger receptor (EcSRECII) as a lipopolysaccharide recognition molecule involved in regulating NF-κB activation through extracellular EGF-like cysteine-rich repeat domains with lysosomes in Epinephelus coioides. Int J Biol Macromol 2023:125111. [PMID: 37257531 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 05/22/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
Scavenger receptors (SRs), as multifunctional pattern recognition receptors, play an important role in innate immunity in mammals, however, their function in fish is limited. Herein, scavenger receptor F2 in Epinephelus coioides (EcSRECII) induced an innate immune response to LPS in GS cells. EcSRECII markedly enhanced LPS-induced NF-κB and IFN-β signaling pathways, whereas knockdown of EcSRECII significantly inhibited LPS-induced NF-κB and IFN-β promoter activation. Interestingly, only retain of epidermal growth factor (EGF)/EGF-like domain in EcSRECII resulted in a punctate cytoplasmic distribution, while the C-terminal domain exhibited a distinct cytoskeletal cytoplasmic distribution. Moreover, this EGF/EGF-like domain fragment more sharply impaired its ability to activate EcSRECII-induced NF-κB activation than the C-terminal domain region, but both domains significantly induced IFN-β promoter activation. Full-length EcSRECII and the delete mutant of C-terminal domain could partly colocalize with lysosomes by LPS derived from V. parahaemolyticus (V.p. LPS) in GS cells, but there was no similar distribution in the delete mutant of EGF/EGF-like domain. This finding firstly suggested that the N-terminal EGF/EGF-like domain was necessary for the NF-κB signaling pathway to trigger resistance to vibrio infection and its functional exertion may be associated with lysosomes, thus providing insights into the regulation of vibrio infection resistance in teleosts.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 131:570-581. [PMID: 36257557 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2022.10.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2022] [Revised: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is an important inflammasome in mammals, which is of great significance to eliminate pathogens. However, the research of the NLRP3 inflammasome in teleost is limited. Tetraodon nigroviridis has the characteristics of small genome and easy feeding, which can be used as a model for the study of fish immune function. In present study, three NLRP3 inflammasome component genes (NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1) in T. nigroviridis has been cloned. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR showed that TnNLRP3 (T. nigroviridis NLRP3), TnASC (T. nigroviridis ASC) and Tncaspase-1 (T. nigroviridis caspase-1) mRNA in various tissues from health T. nigroviridis were highly expressed in immune-related tissues, such as spleen, gill, head kidney and intestine. After Vibrio parahemolyticus infection, the expression of TnNLRP3, TnASC and Tncaspase-1 mRNA in spleen, gill, head kidney reached a peak at 24 h, and the expression levels of these genes in intestine were the highest at 48 h. After the transfection of TnASC-pAcGFP-N1 monomer GFP plasmid into cos-7 cells, ASC specks, the activation marker of NLRP3 inflammasome, were observed. Bimolecular fluorescence complementarity and fluorescence colocation experiment showed that TnASC and Tncaspase-1 of TnNLRP3 inflammasome were co-located near the cell nucleus, and potentially interacted with each other. NLRP3 inflammasome inducer nigericin and agonist ATP could significantly induce the expression of TnNLRP3, TnASC and Tncaspase-1 mRNA, and activation of NLRP3 inflammasome could promote the generation of mature TnIL-1β (T. nigroviridis IL-1β). These results uncover that T. nigroviridis NLRP3 inflammasome could participate in the antibacterial immune response and the generation of mature TnIL-1β after activation.

Integrative analyses of mRNA and microRNA expression profiles reveal the innate immune mechanism for the resistance to Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection in Epinephelus coioides. Front Immunol 2022; 13:982973. [PMID: 36059501 PMCID: PMC9437975 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.982973] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus, as one of the main pathogens of marine vibriosis, has brought huge losses to aquaculture. However, the interaction mechanism between V. parahaemolyticus and Epinephelus coioides remains unclear. Moreover, there is a lack of comprehensive multi-omics analysis of the immune response of grouper spleen to V. parahaemolyticus. Herein, E. coioides was artificially injected with V. parahaemolyticus, and it was found that the mortality was 16.7% in the early stage of infection, and accompanied by obvious histopathological lesions in the spleen. Furthermore, 1586 differentially expressed genes were screened by mRNA-seq. KEGG analysis showed that genes were significantly enriched in immune-related pathways, Acute-phase immune response, Apoptosis, Complement system and Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction. As for miRNA-seq analysis, a total of 55 significantly different miRNAs were identified. Further functional annotation analysis indicated that the target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs were enriched in three important pathways (Phosphatidylinositol signaling system, Lysosome and Focal adhesions). Through mRNA-miRNA integrated analysis, 1427 significant miRNA–mRNA pairs were obtained and “p53 signaling pathway”, “Intestinal immune network for IgA production” were considered as two crucial pathways. Finally, miR-144-y, miR-497-x, novel-m0459-5p, miR-7133-y, miR-378-y, novel-m0440-5p and novel-m0084-3p may be as key miRNAs to regulate immune signaling pathways via the miRNA-mRNA interaction network. The above results suggest that the mRNA-miRNA integrated analysis not only sheds new light on the molecular mechanisms underlying the interaction between host and V. parahaemolyticus but also provides valuable and new insights into resistance to vibrio infection.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) raises the issue of how hypoxia destroys normal physiological function and host immunity against pathogens. However, there are few or no comprehensive omics studies on this effect. From an evolutionary perspective, animals living in complex and changeable marine environments might develop signaling pathways to address bacterial threats under hypoxia. In this study, the ancient genomic model animal Takifugu obscurus and widespread Vibrio parahaemolyticus were utilized to study the effect. T. obscurus was challenged by V. parahaemolyticus or (and) exposed to hypoxia. The effects of hypoxia and infection were identified, and a theoretical model of the host critical signaling pathway in response to hypoxia and infection was defined by methods of comparative metabolomics and proteomics on the entire liver. The changing trends of some differential metabolites and proteins under hypoxia, infection or double stressors were consistent. The model includes transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), and epidermal growth factor (EGF) signaling pathways, and the consistent changing trends indicated that the host liver tended toward cell proliferation. Hypoxia and infection caused tissue damage and fibrosis in the portal area of the liver, which may be related to TGF-β1 signal transduction. We propose that LRG (leucine-rich alpha-2-glycoprotein) is widely involved in the transition of the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway in response to hypoxia and pathogenic infection in vertebrates as a conserved molecule.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an important marine pathogen that cause inflammation even death in teleost. It has brought huge economic losses to aquaculture and serious threats to the sustainable development of marine fisheries. Here, we isolated the DNA, RNA, and total flagellin from V. parahaemolyticus, and obtained the primary spleen and head kidney cells (including leukocytes) from Tetraodon nigroviridis. V. parahaemolyticus DNA, RNA, and total flagellin were used to treat the T. nigroviridis primary cells described above. The results show that the nitric oxide (NO) production and respiratory burst response were significantly induced after stimulation with V. parahaemolyticus total flagellin in T. nigroviridis head kidney and spleen cells. And total flagellin could promote the gene expression and protein production of IL-1β in T. nigroviridis leukocytes. T. nigroviridis TLR5M (TnTLR5M) and TLR5S (TnTLR5S) ORF sequences were obtained as the main recognition receptor for flagellin. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect the expression of pattern recognition receptor TnTLR5M and TnTLR5S, the important signal molecule of inflammatory system TnMyD88 and TnTRAF6, and inflammatory cytokines TnIL-1β and TnIFN-γ2. The results show that there were a significant upregulation after challenge with V. parahaemolyticus total flagellin. We further demonstrated that the total flagellin of V. parahaemolyticus could activate the luciferase activity of the NF-κB reporter gene mediated by TnTLR5M. Overall, our results suggest that V. parahaemolyticus total flagellin activated the NO production, respiratory burst response, and inflammatory cytokines expressions, such as TnIL-1β and TnIFN-γ2, through the TnTLR5M-NF-κB signaling pathway in T. nigroviridis.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a gram-negative halophilic bacterium responsible for gastrointestinal infection in human and vibriosis in aquatic animals. The thermostable direct hemolysin (tdh), tdh-related hemolysin (trh) and thermolabile hemolysin (tlh) positive strains of V. parahaemolyticus were identified from brackishwater aquaculture farms of West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh, India. Moreover, the presence of other virulent genes like vcrD1, vopD, vp1680 under type three secretion system 1 (T3SS1) and vcrD2 vopD2, vopB2, vopC2 under type three secretion system 2 (T3SS2) were detected in tdh positive strain of V. parahaemolyticus. Furthermore, the study revealed that the tdh and trh positive isolates were resistant to β-lactam antibiotics and were able to lyse more than 95% of human Red Blood Cells (RBCs). In addition, both the isolates showed high cytotoxicity in Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK) cell line compared to tlh positive strain. Additionally, intraperitoneal and oral administration of tdh and trh positive strain of V. parahaemolyticus in Indian Major Carp, Labeo rohita caused 100% mortality at the level of 2.0 × 108 CFU ml-1 and 1.6 × 108 CFU ml-1, respectively. In contrast, only 10% mortality was observed in the case of tlh positive strain at the level of 2.5× 108 CFU ml-1. The histopathological changes like infiltration of blood cells and degenerated hepatic tissue in the liver of L. rohita were observed after the experimental challenge. The changes like degeneration of glomeruli, necrosis of renal tubules and Bowman's capsule were observed in the kidney section. Ragged, irregular shaped villi and necrosis of the villus were observed in the intestinal lumen. Overall, the study demonstrates that isolated V. parahaemolyticus is a potent aquatic microbial pathogen. Additionally, as V. parahaemolyticus is also a human pathogen and might pose a threat to the human population, proper management strategies are required to prevent the possible occurrence of disease.

MicroRNA-29b modulates the innate immune response by suppressing IFNγs production in orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides). FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2020; 104:537-544. [PMID: 32470508 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2020.05.057] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2020] [Revised: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 05/23/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Interferon-γ (IFNγ), a type II interferon, is essential to host resistance against various infections. Unlike other vertebrates, fish have two types of IFNγs, IFNγ1 (also named IFNγ-rel) and IFNγ2. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate multiple biological processes by suppressing mRNA translation or inducing mRNA degradation. Among them, miR-29 can directly target IFNγ and affact innate and adaptive immune responses in mice. There are five members of the miR-29 family in orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides), which share the same miRNA seed region. However, whether miR-29 directly targets E. coioides IFNγs and regulate IFNγ production is still unknown. In the present study, the negative correlation between miR-29b and both IFNγs in immune tissues of healthy E. coioides and grouper spleen cells (GS cells) stimulated with LPS or poly I:C was demonstrated. Moreover, dual-luciferase reporter assays and western blotting were performed to demonstrate that miR-29b suppressed E. coioides IFNγ production. Studies of NO production in GS cells after miR-29b transfection revealed that miR-29b overexpression affected NO production through the downregulation of IFNγ expression. Taken together, our results suggest that miR-29b may directly target E. coioides IFNγs and modulate IFNγ-mediated innate immune responses by suppressing E. coioides IFNγs production.

Type F scavenger receptor expressed by endothelial cells (SREC)-II from Epinephelus coioides is a potential pathogen recognition receptor in the immune response to Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2020; 98:262-270. [PMID: 31899357 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2019.12.086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2019] [Revised: 12/24/2019] [Accepted: 12/28/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Scavenger receptors play a central role in defending against infectious diseases in mammals. However, the function of SRECII remains unknown in teleost fish. In this study, type F scavenger receptor expressed by endothelial cells-II (SRECII) cDNA sequence was first identified from Epinephelus coioides, named EcSRECII, which contained an N-terminal signal peptide, eight EGF/EGF-like cysteine-rich motifs and a C-terminal low-complexity region. The gene location maps revealed that EcSRECII has the conservation of synteny among selected species. Subcellular localization showed that EcSRECII was mainly located in the cytoplasm in HEK293T cells and GS cells. In healthy E. coioides, EcSRECII mRNA was highly expressed in spleen, skin, gill, thymus and head kidney. The relative EcSRECII mRNA expression after Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection was significantly up-regulated at 12 h in spleen, head kidney and thymus, but downregulated at 1 d in skin and reduced at 3 d and 1 w in spleen. Furthermore, overexpression of EcSRECII activated NF-κB and IFN-β signaling pathway in vitro. Taken together, these results indicated that EcSRECII could be as the potential pathogen recognition receptor for involving in bacterial infection by regulating innate immunity responses in E. coioides.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus flagellin induces cytokines expression via toll-like receptor 5 pathway in orange-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2019; 87:573-581.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is the major pathogen of vibriosis in aquatic animals and causes inflammation that may be related to tissue damage. Here, we have established a V. parahaemolyticus flagellin stimulation model using grouper spleen (GS) cell line. Purified V. parahaemolyticus flagellin was used to stimulate GS cells. Our results showed that the mRNA levels of orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) toll-like receptor 5M (EcTLR5M), EcTLR5S and downstream cytokines, such as interferon-γ2 (IFN-γ2), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), were all significantly increased after stimulation with V. parahaemolyticus flagellin in GS cells. Gene silencing of the EcTLR5M and EcTLR5S in GS cells by using small interfering RNA resulted in suppression of the V. parahaemolyticus flagellin-induced cytokines expression. We further demonstrated that activation of both mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) were required for cytokines expression. We observed that the phosphorylation of NF-κB inhibitor-α (IκBα), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 were induced following treatment with flagellin. Additionally, most of p65, a NF-κB subunit, was found to translocate to the nucleus after 60 min stimulation. Overall, our results suggest that V. parahaemolyticus flagellin influences cytokines expression, such as IFN-γ2, IL-6 and TNF-α, via EcTLR5s recognition and MAPKs/NF-κB signaling pathway activation in GS cells.

Enhancing gilthead seabream immune status and protection against bacterial challenge by means of antigens derived from Vibrio parahaemolyticus. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2017; 60:205-218.

Abstract
In an attempt to control the proliferation of the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio parahaemolyticus in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata), the immunostimulant effect of lysate and ToxA from this bacterium was evaluated. Fish were intraperitoneally injected twice (first injection, day 1 of the experiment; second injection, day 7) and sampled after one week (on days 8 and 15). Afterwards, all fish specimens were experimentally infected with V. parahaemolyticus and mortality was recovered for 1 week. Fish injected with lysate, ToxA and phosphate buffer saline (control) showed 100%, 50% and 0% survival, respectively, when challenged with the pathogen. Skin mucus immune parameters and immune-related gene expression in skin and spleen were also evaluated. The results showed that mucus immune parameters were enhanced in the lysate and ToxA groups compared with the values obtained for fish from the control group. Expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, C3 and IgM genes was significantly up-regulated in the lysate and ToxA groups, principally after infection with the bacterium. Interestingly, TLR5 gene expression increased in fish immunized with lysate. The most prominent histological characteristic in gut from infected fish was the presence of a great number of intraepithelial leucocytes as well as inflammation of the submucosa, while severe hydropic degeneration and hemosiderosis were detected in liver from infected fish. Injection of lysate or ToxA had a protective effect against the deleterious consequences of subsequent infection with V. parahaemolyticus in gut and liver. The findings underline the potential of lysate and ToxA as potent preventive antigens against this kind of vibriosis.
