Song Z, Li K, Li K. Acute effects of the environmental probiotics Rhodobacter sphaeroides on intestinal bacteria and transcriptome in shrimp Penaeusvannamei. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2024; 145:109316. [PMID: 38142021 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.109316] [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: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/25/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, a substantial number of studies have been dedicated to exploring the potential benefits of probiotics in aquaculture. Rhodobacter sphaeroides can be used in aquaculture-related environmental bioremediation, and its protein is also used as a feed additive in Penaeus vannamei culture. To investigate the effects of releasing R. sphaeroides as environmental probiotics on P. vannamei, we employed 16S rRNA gene and mRNA transcriptome sequencing. Our study focused on assessing alterations in intestinal bacteria and intestinal gene expression in P. vannamei, establishing correlations between them. Our findings revealed a significant increase in the relative abundances of Rhodobacter, Paracoccus, Sulfitobacter, and other bacterial OTUs within the intestinal bacterial community. Additionally, we observed enhanced complexity and stability in the intestinal bacterial correlation network, indicating improved synergy among bacteria and reduced competition. Moreover, the introduction of R. sphaeroides resulted in the down-regulation of certain immune genes and the up-regulation of genes linked to growth and metabolism in the intestinal tissues of P. vannamei. Importantly, we identified a noteworthy correlation between the changes in intestinal bacteria and these alterations in intestinal tissue gene expressions. By conducting analyses of the intestinal bacterial community and intestinal tissue transcriptome, this study revealed the effects of releasing R. sphaeroides as sediment probiotics in P. vannamei culture water. These results serve as vital scientific references for the application of R. sphaeroides in P. vannamei aquaculture.

Zhan F, Zhou S, Shi F, Li Q, Lin L, Qin Z. Transcriptome analysis of Macrobrachium rosenbergii hemocytes in response to Staphylococcus aureus infection. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023:108927. [PMID: 37406892 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.108927] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 06/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
The aquaculture industry has suffered significant financial losses as a result of disease outbreaks. In particular, disease outbreaks have become a major problem that can seriously affect the sustainable development of the Macrobrachium rosenbergii aquaculture industry. It is crucial to determine the defense mechanism of the host after pathogenic invasion in order to provide effective defense measures after disease outbreaks. Shrimp, like other invertebrates, primarily depend on their innate immune systems to defend against pathogens, and recognize and resist pathogens through humoral and cellular immune responses. In this investigation, we used RNA-seq technology to investigate the transcriptome of hemocytes from M. rosenbergii induced by Staphylococcus aureus. Our main targets were immune pathways and genes related to innate immunity. RNA-seq identified 209,069 and 204,775 unigenes in the control and experimental groups, respectively. In addition, we identified 547 and 1734 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) following S. aureus challenge after 6 and 12 h (h), respectively. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that the DEGs were significantly enriched in several biological signalling pathways, including NOD-like receptor, PI3K-Akt, Toll and Imd, IL-17, TGF-beta, RIG-I-like receptor, cAMP, apoptosis, and C-type lectin receptor. Sixteen DEGs were chosen at random for qPCR verification; these results concurred with those from sequencing. Our findings revealed that immune-related genes play an important role in antibacterial activities and have specific functions for gram-positive bacteria. These results provide more data for the prevention of M. rosenbergii diseases and offer a basis for the better prevention of diseases.
