Abstract
Innate immunity plays the most important system responsible for protecting crustaceans against invading pathogens. White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is considered a serious pathogen in crustaceans with high cumulative mortality and morbidity in infected animals. Understanding the mechanism of the response of hosts to WSSV infection is necessary, which is useful for effective prevention in controlling infection. In this review, we summarize the participation of signaling pathways (toll, immune deficiency, JAK/STAT, endocytosis, mitogen-activated protein kinase, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, cGAS-STING, Wingless/Integrated signal transduction, and prophenoloxidase (proPO) cascade) and the activity of cells (apoptosis, autophagy, as well as, reactive oxygen species and antioxidant enzymes) in the cellular-mediated immune response of crustaceans during WSSV infection. The information presented in this current review is important for a better understanding of the mechanism of the response of hosts to pathogens. Additionally, this provides a piece of basic knowledge for discovering approaches to strengthen the immune system and resistance of cultured animals against viral infections.

DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 130:104360.

Abstract
Clip domain serine proteinases participate in invertebrate innate immunity by acting as crucial enzymes in the signaling cascade involved in shrimp immunity. To functionally characterize its role in Fenneropenaeus merguiensis, FmclipSP cDNA was cloned and characterized. The FmclipSP gene comprised 1353 bp with an open reading frame of 1110 bp and encoded 369 amino acids. The protein contained clip and serine protease domains. FmClipSP mRNA is highly expressed in hemocytes, and its expression was significantly upregulated by bacterial or viral pathogen challenge. Furthermore, FmClipSP recombinant protein (rFmClipSP) was produced and possessed protease activity, stimulating prophenoloxidase activity. Additionally, rFmClipSP exhibited antibacterial activity against pathogens and nonpathogens. ELISA results demonstrated the binding ability of rFmClipSP to a recombinant protein of VP28 (rVP28). Interestingly, the binding significantly inhibited prophenoloxidase activity. Altogether, we partially characterized the function of FmclipSP and demonstrated its association with VP28. This study indicates the importance of clipSP as a component of F. merguiensis innate immunity. However, the role of clipSP in crustaceans remains unclear and requires further investigation.

Abstract
Innate immunity is the only defense system for resistance against infections in crustaceans. In crustaceans, white spot diseases caused by white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) are a serious viral disease with high accumulative mortality after infection. Attachment and entry into cells have been known to be two initial and important steps in viral infection. However, systematic information about the mechanisms related to WSSV infection in crustaceans is still limited. Previous studies have reported that cellular receptors are important in the innate immune system and are responsible for the recognition of foreign microorganisms and in the stimulation of the immune responses during infections. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the functions of cellular receptors, including Toll, C-type lectin, scavenger receptor, β-integrin, polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, laminin receptor, globular C1q receptor, lipopolysaccharide-and β-1,3-glucan-binding protein, chitin-binding protein, Ras-associated binding, and Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule in the innate immune defense of crustaceans, especially shrimp and crabs, in response to WSSV infection. The results of this study provide information on the interaction between viruses and hosts during infections, which is important in the development of preventative strategies and antiviral targets in cultured aquatic animals.

Abstract
Clip domain serine protease (cSPs) play an important role in the innate immune defense of crustaceans. In this study, a clip domain serine protease (MncSP) and its alternative transcript (MncSP-isoform) were identified from Macrobrachium nipponense. The full-length cDNA sequences of MncSP and MncSP-isoform were 2447 and 2351 bp with open reading frames comprising 1497 and 1401 bp nucleotides and encoding 498 and 466 amino acids, respectively. The genome of MncSP had 10 exons and 9 introns. MncSP contained all 10 exons, whereas MncSP-isoform lacked the second exon. MncSP and MncSP-isoform contained a signal peptide, a clip domain, and a Tryp_SPc domain. Phylogenetic tree analysis showed that MncSP and MncSP-isoform clustered with cSPs from Palaemonidae. MncSP and MncSP-isoform were widely distributed in hemocytes, heart, hepatopancreas, gills, stomach, and intestine. The expression profiles of MncSP and MncSP-isoform in the hemocytes of M. nipponense changed after simulation by Vibrio parahaemolyticus or Staphylococcus aureus. The RNAi of MncSP could inhibit the expression of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), including crustins and anti-lipopolysaccharide factors. Phenoloxidase activity was also down-regulated in MncSP-silenced prawns. This study indicated that MncSP participated in the synthesis of AMPs and the activation of prophenoloxidase.

Abstract
Melanin production from different types of phenoloxidases (POs) confers immunity from a variety of pathogens ranging from viruses and microorganisms to parasites. The arthropod proPO expresses a variety of activities including cytokine, opsonin and microbiocidal activities independent of and even without melanin production. Proteolytic processing of proPO and its activating enzyme gives rise to several peptide fragments with a variety of separate activities in a process reminiscent of vertebrate complement system activation although proPO bears no sequence similarity to vertebrate complement factors. Pathogens influence proPO activation and thereby what types of immune effects that will be produced. An increasing number of specialised pathogens - from parasites to viruses - have been identified who can synthesise compounds specifically aimed at the proPO-system. In invertebrates outside the arthropods phylogenetically unrelated POs are participating in melanization reactions obviously aimed at intruders and/or aberrant tissues.

Abstract
Viral immediate early (IE) genes encode regulatory proteins that are critical for viral replication. WSV056 is an IE protein of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), an important pathogen of farmed shrimp. It targets the host Rb protein(s) and, according to a previous study, may enhance the replication of the viral genome. However, the ectopic expression of WSV056 in transgenic Drosophila melanogaster exerted an inhibitory effect on the replication of Drosophila C virus (DCV). Transcriptome study using Affymetrix GeneChip suggested that the enrichment of serine proteases (SPs) likely accounts for DCV inhibition in WSV056-overexpressing Drosophila. Injection of recombinant WSV056 to the WSSV natural host Litopenaeus vannamei enhanced the expression of the SP family member prophenoloxidase-activating enzyme 2 (LvPPAE2) and conferred shrimp with more resistance to WSSV infection. LvPPAE2 knockdown contributed to decreased expression of antimicrobial peptides LvAlf1 and LvLyz1, reduced hemolymph phenoloxidase activity, and increased virus load, suggesting that LvPPAE2 is involved in the host defense against WSSV infection. Taken together, these results suggest that wsv056 plays a role in restricting viral replication by inducing the SP-mediated immune responses in the host.

Abstract
The effects of temperature on the progression of White Spot Disease (WSD) have been studied in the freshwater crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus. In this study, we aimed to understand the reason for previously observed low mortalities with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infected crayfish at low temperatures. The susceptibility of freshwater crayfish to WSSV was studied at different temperatures. The mortality rate at 6 °C was zero, meanwhile the animals kept at 22 °C developed WSD symptoms and died in a few days after WSSV injections, however upon transfer of animals from 6 °C to 22 °C the mortality reached 100% indicating that the virus is not cleared at 6 °C. Moreover, the VP28 expression at 6 °C was significantly lower compared to animals kept at 22 °C. We injected animals with demecolcine, an inhibitor that arrests the cell cycle in metaphase, and observed a delayed mortality. Furthermore, the VP28 expression was found to be lower in these animals receiving both injections with WSSV and demecolcine since cell proliferation was inhibited by demecolcine. We quantified WSSV copy numbers and found that virus entry was blocked at 6 °C, but not in demecolcine treatments. We supported this result by quantifying the expression of a clip domain serine protease (PlcSP) which plays an important role for WSSV binding, and we found that the PlcSP expression was inhibited at 6 °C. Therefore, our hypothesis is that the WSSV needs proliferating cells to replicate, and an optimum temperature to enter the host hematopoietic stem cells successfully.

A novel white spot syndrome virus protein WSSV164 controls prophenoloxidases, PmproPOs in shrimp melanization cascade. DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2018; 86:109-117.

Abstract
Melanization, mediated by the prophenoloxidase (proPO)-activating system, is an important innate immune response in invertebrates. The implication of the proPO system in antiviral response and the suppression of host proPO activation by the viral protein have previously been demonstrated in shrimp. However, the molecular mechanism of viral-host interactions in the proPO cascade remains largely unexplored. Here, we characterized the viral protein, namely, WSSV164, which was initially identified from the forward suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) cDNA library of the PmproPO1/2 co-silenced black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon that was challenged with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). Using the yeast two-hybrid system, WSSV164 was found to interact with the PmproPO2 protein. The subsequent validation assay by co-immunoprecipitation revealed that WSSV164 directly bound to both PmproPO1 and PmproPO2. The gene silencing experiment was carried out to explore the role of WSSV164 in the control of the proPO pathway in shrimp, and the results showed that suppression of WSSV164 can restore PO activity in WSSV-infected shrimp hemolymph. The recombinant proteins of PmproPO1 and PmproPO2 were produced in Sf-9 cells and were shown to be successfully activated by exogenous trypsin and endogenous serine proteinases from shrimp hemocyte lysate supernatant (HLS), yielding PO activity in vitro. Moreover, the activated PO activity in shrimp HLS was dose-dependently reduced by the recombinant WSSV164 protein, suggesting that WSSV164 may interfere with the activation of the proPO system in shrimp. Taken together, these results suggest an alternative infection route of WSSV through the encoded viral protein WSSV164 that binds to the PmproPO1 and PmproPO2 proteins, interfering with the activation of the melanization cascade in shrimp.

Abstract
Freshwater crayfish is an important commodity as well as a successful model for studies on crustacean immunity. Due to the ease with which they are kept and the available methods for hemocyte separation and culture they have proven to be very useful. Here, recent progress regarding pattern recognition, immune effector production and antiviral mechanisms are discussed. Several cases of functional resemblance between vertebrate complement and the crayfish immune reactions are highlighted.
