Abstract
The family of TIR domain-containing receptors includes numerous proteins involved in innate immunity. In this study, a member of this family was characterized from the ovary of the oriental river prawn Macrobrachium nipponense and identified as interleukin-1 receptor (MnIL-1R). Meanwhile, to elucidate the conservation of IL-1R, its orthologous were identified in several crustacean species as well. In addition, the expression pattern of MnIL-1R in various adult tissues and post different pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) challenge in ovary was analyzed with qRT-PCR technology. Finally, the roles of MnIL-1R in the ovary were analyzed by RNAi technology. The main results are as follows: (1) MnIL-1R comprises a 1785 bp ORF encoding 594 amino acids and is structurally composed of five domains: a signal peptide, two immunoglobulin (IG) domains, a transmembrane region, and a TIR-2 domain; (2) the TIR domain showed a high conservation among analyzed crustacean species; (3) MnIL-1R is widely detected in all tested tissues including ovary; (4) MnIL-1R showed a positive response to challenges with LPS, PGN, and polyI:C in the ovary; (5) its IG domain showed strong binding ability to LPS and PGN, confirming its role as a pattern recognition receptor; (6) the expression patterns of several members of the Toll signaling pathway (Myd88, TRAF-6, Dorsal, and Relish) was similar to that of MnIL-1R after challenges with LPS, PGN, and polyI:C in the ovary; (7) the silencing of MnIL-1R resulted in down-regulation of theses gene' (Myd88, TRAF-6, Dorsal, and Relish) expression level in the ovary. These results suggest that MnIL-1R can activate the Toll signaling pathway in the ovary by directly recognizing LPS and PGN through its IG domain, thereby contributing to the immune response in the ovary of M. nipponense.

Qin L, Qian Q, Chen A, Zhang Y, Tang X, Yin T, Jiang Q, Zhang X, Gao X. Isolation and the pathogenicity characterization of Decapod iridescent virus 1 (DIV1) from diseased Macrobrachium nipponense and its activation on host immune response. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2024; 146:109403. [PMID: 38266793 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2024.109403] [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: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 01/20/2024] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 01/26/2024]
Abstract
The high morbidity and mortality of Macrobrachium nipponense occurred in several farms in China, with cardinal symptoms of slow swimming, loss of appetite, empty of intestine, reddening of the hepatopancreas and gills. The pathogen has been confirmed as Decapod Iridescent Virus 1 (DIV1), namely DIV1-mn, by molecular epidemiology, histopathological examination, TEM observation, challenge experiment, and viral load detection. Histopathological analysis showed severe damage in hepatopancreas and gills of diseased prawns, exhibited few eosinophilic inclusions and pyknosis, and TEM of diseased prawns revealed that icosahedral virus particles existed in hepatopancreas and gill, which confirmed the disease of the farmed prawns caused by the DIV1 infection. Besides, challenge tests showed LD50 of DIV1 to M. nipponense was determined to be 2.14 × 104 copies/mL, and real-time PCR revealed that M. nipponense had a very high DIV1 load in the hemocytes, gills and hepatopancreas after infection. Furthermore, qRT-PCR was undertaken to investigated the expression of six immune-related genes in DIV1-infected M. nipponense after different time points, and the results revealed UCHL3, Relish, Gly-Cru2, CTL, MyD88 and Hemocyanin were significantly up-regulated in hemocytes, gills and hepatopancreas, which revealed various expression patterns in response to DIV1 infection. This study revealed that DIV1 infection is responsible for the mass mortality of M. nipponense, one of the important crustacean species, indicating its high susceptibility to DIV1. Moreover, this study will contribute to exploring the interaction between the host and DIV1 infection, specifically in terms of understanding how M. nipponense recognizes and eliminates the invading of DIV1.
