Abstract
IMPORTANCE Viruses are able to mimic the physiological or pathological mechanism of the host to favor their infection and replication. Virus-mock basement membrane (VMBM) is a Megalocytivirus-induced extracellular structure formed on the surface of infected cells and structurally and functionally mimics the basement membrane of the host. VMBM provides specific support for lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) rather than blood endothelial cells to adhere to the surface of infected cells, which constitutes a unique phenomenon of Megalocytivirus infection. Here, the structure of VMBM and the interactions between VMBM components and LECs have been analyzed at the molecular level. The regulatory effect of VMBM components on the proliferation and migration of LECs has also been explored. This study helps to understand the mechanism of LEC-specific attachment to VMBM and to address the issue of where the LECs come from in the context of Megalocytivirus infection.

Stress-associated β -glucan administration stimulates the TLR - MYD88 - NFKB1 signaling pathway in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 142:109089. [PMID: 37722438 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.109089] [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: 04/27/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/16/2023] [Indexed: 09/20/2023]
Abstract
There is evidence that the administration of β-glucan can effectively activate several defense mechanisms, such as the Tlr-Myd88-Nfkb1 pathway that induces the expression of immune cytokines. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate whether β-glucan acts on the mechanisms of gene transcription via the Tlr-Myd88-Nfkb1 pathway in Nile tilapia under stress after challenge with Streptococcus agalactiae. Therefore, we evaluated the expression of immune system genes such as toll-like receptors 1 (tlr1), toll-like receptors 2 (tlr2), primary myeloid differentiation response gene (myd88) and nuclear factor kappa B1 (nfkb1). A total of 408 fish were distributed in 24 polyethylene boxes and randomly divided into eight groups with 3 replications each: C15: Tilapias received a control diet (free of β-glucan) for 15 days and were sampled after the 15th day of the experiment; C15D: Tilapias received a control diet (free of β-glucan) for 15 days, were challenged on the 14th day and were sampled at the 15th day of the experiment; β15: Tilapias received experimental diet (1g kg-1 of β-glucan) for 15 days and were sampled after 15 days; β15D: Tilapias received an experimental diet (1g kg-1 of β-glucan) for 15 days, were challenged on the 14th day and were sampled at the 15th day of the experiment; C30: Tilapias received a control diet (free of β-glucan) for 30 days and were sampled on the 30th day of the experiment; C30D: Tilapias received a control diet (free of β-glucan) for 30 days, were challenged on the 29th day and were sampled at the 30th day of the experiment; β30: Tilapias received experimental diet (1g kg-1 of β-glucan) for 30 days and were sampled after 30 days and β30D: Tilapias received experimental diet (1g kg-1 of β-glucan) for 30 days, were challenged on the 29th day and were sampled at 30 of the experiment. In the fish sampled at 15 and 30 days of the experiment, after being anesthetized and killed by brain section, cranial kidney and spleen were collected for gene expression analysis. The analyzes showed that the association of β-glucan and stressful management modulated the immune system, using the Tlr-Myd88-Nfkb1 signaling pathway, indicating that this compound can be used to promote early defense and protect fish against diseases.

Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) is the type species of the Megalocytivirus genus that infects a number of marine and freshwater fishes, causing huge economic losses in aquaculture. The ISKNV infection leads to increase of reducing power in cells. As the antibiotic neomycin can promote the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in animal cells, in the current study, the potential therapeutic effect of neomycin on ISKNV infection was explored. We showed that neomycin could decrease the reducing power in cultured MFF-1 cells and inhibit ISKNV infection by antagonizing the shift of the cellular redox balance toward reduction. In vivo experiments further demonstrated that neomycin treatment significantly suppresses ISKNV infection in mandarin fish. Expression of the major capsid protein (MCP) and the proportion of infected cells in tissues were down-regulated after neomycin treatment. Furthermore, neomycin showed complex effects on expression of a set of antiviral related genes of the host. Taking together, the current study suggested that the viral-induced redox imbalance in the infected cells could be used as a target for suppressing ISKNV infection. Neomycin can be potentially utilized for therapeutic treatment of Megalocytivirus diseases by antagonizing intracellular redox changes.

Abstract
The inflammatory response to viral infection in humans is a dynamic process with complex cell interactions that are governed by the immune system and influenced by both host and viral factors. Due to this complexity, the relative contributions of the virus and host factors are best studied in vivo using animal models. In this review, we describe how the zebrafish (Danio rerio) has been used as a powerful model to study host-virus interactions and inflammation by combining robust forward and reverse genetic tools with in vivo imaging of transparent embryos and larvae. The innate immune system has an essential role in the initial inflammatory response to viral infection. Focused studies of the innate immune response to viral infection are possible using the zebrafish model as there is a 4-6 week timeframe during development where they have a functional innate immune system dominated by neutrophils and macrophages. During this timeframe, zebrafish lack a functional adaptive immune system, so it is possible to study the innate immune response in isolation. Sequencing of the zebrafish genome has revealed significant genetic conservation with the human genome, and multiple studies have revealed both functional conservation of genes, including those critical to host cell infection and host cell inflammatory response. In addition to studying several fish viruses, zebrafish infection models have been developed for several human viruses, including influenza A, noroviruses, chikungunya, Zika, dengue, herpes simplex virus type 1, Sindbis, and hepatitis C virus. The development of these diverse viral infection models, coupled with the inherent strengths of the zebrafish model, particularly as it relates to our understanding of macrophage and neutrophil biology, offers opportunities for far more intensive studies aimed at understanding conserved host responses to viral infection. In this context, we review aspects relating to the evolution of innate immunity, including the evolution of viral pattern recognition receptors, interferons and interferon receptors, and non-coding RNAs.

Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV), causing serious infectious diseases to marine and freshwater fishes, is the type species of the genus Megalocytivirus, family Iridoviridae. In this study, the transcriptional programs of ISKNV in vitro (MFF-1 cells) and in vivo (spleens from mandarin fish) were investigated using real-time PCR. Transcription of all the putative open reading frames (ORFs) of ISKNV was verified. The temporal expression patterns of ISKNV ORFs in vitro and in vivo, including peak expression times (PETs) and relative maximal expression levels, were determined and compared. The K-means clustering with Spearman rank correlation was generated in heat maps constructed based on ISKNV ORF expression profiles in vivo and in vitro. The current study may provide a global picture of ISKNV infection at the transcription level and help better understand the molecular pathogenic mechanism of megalocytiviruses.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression by complementary binding to target mRNAs. Virus-encoded miRNAs play important roles in virus life cycle and virus-host interactions. Viruses from the Megalocytivirus genus, family Iridoviridae, infect a wide range of fishes, bringing great challenges to aquaculture. Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) is the type species of the Megalocytivirus genus. In this study, using Illumina sequencing coupled with miRNA precursor prediction and stem-loop real-time PCR, 14 putative ISKNV-encoded miRNAs were preliminarily identified from ISKNV-infected mandarin fish MFF-1 cells. To initially study their functions, inhibitors of the 14 viral miRNAs were synthesized and transfected into MFF-1 cells, which were further infected with ISKNV. The results showed that these viral miRNAs could affect the virus titers in the supernatant of ISKNV-infected cells and the expression of major capsid protein (MCP). Moreover, we observed that inhibition of several ISKNV miRNAs had different effects on MCP expression and on titer of released virus, suggesting complex roles of viral miRNAs in ISKNV infection. The current study may provide a fundamental information for further identification and functional studies on miRNAs encoded by Megalocytivirus.

Abstract
Mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) is a significant cultured species with high added value in China. With the expansion of farming, diseases of mandarin fish such as Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) diseases are becoming more and more serious. Human endogenous retrovirus subfamily H long terminal repeat associating protein 2 (HHLA2) is a type 1 transmembrane molecule with three extracellular Ig domains (IgV-IgC-IgV) and plays important roles in the T cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. The HHLA2-homologues have not been found in virus. In this study, a viral HHLA2 protein encoded by ISKNV ORF069L was identified and the virulence of the deleted ORF069L reconstruction ISKNV strain (ΔORF069L) was investigated. ISKNV ORF069L gene was predicted to encode a 222-amino acids peptide. The bioinformation analysis revealed that ISKNV ORF069L contained an Ig HHLA2 domain and was homologous to vertebrate B7-CD28 family proteins. The recombinant virus strain of ΔORF069L was constructed by homologous recombination technology. The virus titer and growth curves between ISKNV wild type (WT) and ΔORF069L on cellular level showed no significant differences indicating that the ORF069L did not influence the ISKNV replication. The expression levels of immune-related genes (Mx1, IL-1β, IL-8, TNF-a and IgM) were increased in fish infected with ΔORF069L, compared to those in fish infected with ISKNV WT. Furthermore, the lethality caused by ΔORF069L declined by 40% compared with ISKNV WT, indicating that ORF069L was a virulence gene of ISKNV. Most importantly, the protection rate was nearly 100% for fish immunized with ΔORF069L strain. Those results suggested that ΔORF069L could be developed as a potential attenuated vaccine against ISKNV. Our work will be beneficial to promote the development of gene deletion attenuated vaccines for ISKNV disease.

This was demonstrated by direct inoculation and through cohabitation. Transmission by cohabitation was also demonstrated from inoculated freshwater Murray cod Maccullochella peelii to euryhaline Australian bass Macquaria novemaculeata and to marine silver sweep. The virus was also transmitted from infected marine silver sweep to euryhaline Australian bass and then to freshwater Murray cod. This study is the first to demonstrate the virulence of a megalocytivirus derived from ornamental fish in an Australian marine species and the first to show a feasible pathway for the exchange of megalocytiviruses between freshwater and marine finfish hosts. These results demonstrate that megalocytiviruses from freshwater ornamental fish have the potential to spread to diverse aquatic environments.

Non-Targeted UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS-Based Metabolomics Reveals a Metabolic Shift from Glucose to Glutamine in CPB Cells during ISKNV Infection Cycle. Metabolites 2019; 9:metabo9090174. [PMID: 31487859 PMCID: PMC6780522 DOI: 10.3390/metabo9090174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2019] [Revised: 08/28/2019] [Accepted: 08/31/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) has caused serious economic losses in the cultured mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) industry in China. Host metabolism alteration induced by disease infection may be the core problem of pathogenesis. However, to date, little is known about the disease-induced fish metabolism changes. In this study, we first reported ISKNV, the fish virus, induced metabolism alteration. The metabolomics profiles of Chinese perch brain cells (CPB) post-ISKNV infection at progressive time points were analyzed using the UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS technique. A total of 98 differential metabolites were identified. In the samples harvested at 24 hours post-infection (hpi; the early stage of ISKNV infection), 49 differential metabolites were identified comparing with control cells, including 31 up-regulated and 18 down-regulated metabolites. And in the samples harvested at 72 hpi (the late stage of ISKNV infection), 49 differential metabolites were identified comparing with control cells, including 27 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated metabolites. These differential metabolites were involved in many pathways related with viral pathogenesis. Further analysis on the major differential metabolites related to glucose metabolism and amino acid metabolism revealed that both glucose metabolism and glutamine metabolism were altered and a metabolic shift was determined from glucose to glutamine during ISKNV infection cycle. In ISKNV-infected cells, CPB cells prefer to utilize glucose for ISKNV replication at the early stage of infection, while they prefer to utilize glutamine to synthetize lipid for ISKNV maturation at the late stage of infection. These findings may improve the understanding of the interaction between ISKNV and host, as well as provide a new insight for elucidating the ISKNV pathogenic mechanism.

Abstract
Megalocytiviruses, particularly red seabream iridovirus, infect a broad range of fish including both freshwater and marine species. Although a limited number of infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) strains have been reported in association with mortality events in marine aquaculture species, the potential host range for ISKNV strains, particularly of those that have been detected in ornamental fish, has not been well characterised. There have also been few reports on the susceptibility of euryhaline fish species that could potentially transmit megalocytiviruses between freshwater and marine environments. We found that the euryhaline Australian native percichthyid fish, Australian bass Macquaria novemaculeata, is susceptible experimentally to ISKNV (strain DGIV-10), obtained from a freshwater ornamental fish, dwarf gourami Trichogaster lalius. Australian bass developed clinical disease following direct inoculation and also following cohabitation with infected fish, and were able to transmit DGIV-10 to naïve Murray cod Maccullochella peelii. This study demonstrated the potential for a euryhaline species to become infected with, and transmit, the megalocytivirus ISKNV between fish populations.

Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) has caused significant losses in the cultured mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) industry. The molecular mechanisms that underlie interaction between ISKNV and hosts are not fully understood. In this study, the proteomic profile of CPB cells at progressive time points after ISKNV infection was analyzed by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ). A total of 2731 proteins corresponding to 6363 novel peptides (false discovery rate <0.01) were identified. In the samples harvested 24 h (early-stage) and 72 h (late-stage) post-infection, 232 and 199 differentially expressed proteins were identified comparing with mock-infected cells, respectively. Western-blotting analysis of several proteins as G6PDH, β-tubulin and RPL11 were done to validate iTRAQ data. Among those differentially expressed proteins, several glucose metabolism-related enzymes, including glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDP) and fumarate hydratase (FH), were up-regulated, while pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) and enolase (ENO) were down-regulated at 24 h poi, suggesting that ISKNV enhanced glucose metabolism in CPB cells in early-stage infection. Simultaneously, expression of apoptosis-related proteins including Caspase 8, phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks), and regulatory-associated protein of mTOR-like isoform X3 changed upon ISKNV infection, indicating that ISKNV induced apoptosis of CPB cells. Autophagy-related proteins including LC3 and PI3Ks were up-regulated at 24 h poi, indicating that ISKNV induced autophagy of CPB cells in early-stage infection. These findings may improve the understanding of ISKNV and host interaction and help clarify its pathogenesis mechanisms.

Abstract
Teleost fish are unique in having type I and type II interferons (IFNs) only, and the type I IFNs are classified into Group one and Group two based on the presence of two or four cysteines respectively, and are further classified into seven subgroups. In the present study, three distinct type I IFNs, IFNc, IFNd and IFNh, have been identified in the genome sequences of a perciform fish, the mandarin fish Siniperca chuatsi. These IFNs are induced following the stimulation of Polyinosinic polycytidylic acid (poly(I:C)) and Resiquimod (R848) either in vivo or in vitro. But, the infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) infection caused a delayed response of IFNs, which may be resulted from the viral inhibition of type I IFN production and related signalling. The three receptor subunits, cytokine receptor family B 1 (CRFB1), CRFB2 and CRFB5 are also expressed in a similar manner as observed for the IFNs, and IFNc, IFNd and IFNh use preferentially the receptor complex, CRFB2 and CRFB5, CRFB1 and CRFB5, CRFB1 and CRFB5 respectively for their effective signalling in the induction of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). Moreover, the IFNs are able to induce their own expression, and also the IRF3 and IRF7 expression, leading to the amplification of IFN cascade. It is further revealed that these three IFNs are transcribed differently by IRF7 and IRF3. The composition, function, signalling and transcription of type I IFNs have been investigated in detail in a teleost fish.

Abstract
Interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) are a family of mediators in various biological processes including immune modulation of interferon (IFN) and proinflammatory cytokine expression. However, the data on the complete composition of IRFs is rather limited in teleost fish. In the present study, all IRF members, i.e. IRF1‒11 with two IRF4, IRF4a and IRF4b have been characterised in an aquaculture species of fish, the mandarin fish, Siniperca chuatsi, in addition to the previous report of IRF1, IRF2, IRF3 and IRF7 from the fish. These IRFs are constitutively expressed in various organs/tissues of the fish, and their expression can be induced following the stimulation of polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly(I:C)) and the infection of infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV), a viral pathogen of mandarin fish in aquaculture. The ISKNV infection induced the significant increase in the expression of some IRF genes, i.e. IRF2, IRF4a, IRF7, IRF9, IRF10 at 24 or 36 h post-infection (hpi) in spleen and head-kidney, and the significant increase of some other IRF genes, e.g. IRF1, IRF3, IRF4b, IRF5, IRF6, IRF8 at later stage of infection from 72, or 96, or even 120 hpi, which may imply the inhibitory effect of ISKNV on fish immune response. It is considered that the present study provides the first detailed analysis on all IRF members in an aquaculture species of fish, and can be served as the base for further investigation on the role of IRFs in teleost fish.

Abstract
Members of the Iridoviridae family have been considered as aetiological agents of iridovirus diseases, causing fish mortalities and economic losses all over the world. Virus identification based on candidate gene sequencing is faster, more accurate and more reliable than other traditional phenotype methodologies. Iridoviridae viruses are covered by a protein shell (capsid) encoded by the important candidate gene, major capsid protein (MCP). In this study, we investigated the potential of the MCP gene for use in the diagnosis and identification of infections caused Megalocytivirus of the Iridoviridae family. We selected data of 66 Iridoviridae family isolates (53 strains of Megalocytivirus, eight strains of iridoviruses and five strains of Ranavirus) infecting various species of fish distributed all over the world. A total of 53 strains of Megalocytivirus were used for designing the complete primer sets for identifying the most hypervariable region of the MCP gene. Further, our in silico analysis of 102 sequences of related and unrelated viruses reconfirms that primer sets could identify strains more specifically and offers a useful and fast alternative for routine clinical laboratory testing. Our findings suggest that phenotype observation along with diagnosis using universal primer sets can help detect infection or carriers at an early stage.

High reduced/oxidized glutathione ratio in infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus-infected cells contributes to degradation of VP08R multimers. Vet Microbiol 2017; 207:19-24.

Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) is the type species of the genus Megalocytivirus, family Iridoviridae. The ISKNV-infected cells in fish tissues are attached by lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), which is a unique pathological phenomenon of ISKNV infection. The viral proteins VP23R and VP08R and the host protein nidogen-1 constitute the virus-mock basement membrane (VMBM) on the membrane of infected cells to provide attaching sites for LECs. VP08R can form cross-linked multimers via intermolecular disulfide bonds to make VMBM a compact and strong structure. A question is that when the virions mature, how do they penetrate VMBMs to be released from the cells? In this study, the redox state in ISKNV-infected cells was investigated. We demonstrated that the ratio of reduced/oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) was significantly elevated in ISKNV-infected cells, suggesting the increasing of reducing power. Remarkable changes were also observed in activities of many GSH metabolic enzymes and in the ratio of NADPH/NADP. We further exhibited that the high ratio of GSH/GSSG could lead to degradation of the VP08R multimer in vitro. These may suggest that the high GSH/GSSG ratio in infected cells could act on the VP08R multimer to facilitate the disassembly of VMBMs after virus maturation.

Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) is the type species of the genus Megalocytivirus, family Iridoviridae. Infection of ISKNV is characterized by a unique pathological phenomenon in that the infected cells are attached by lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). ISKNV mediates the formation of a virus-mock basement membrane (VMBM) structure on the surface of infected cells to provide attaching sites for LECs. The viral protein VP08R is an important component of VMBM. In this study, a novel ISKNV-encoded microRNA, temporarily named ISKNV-miR-1, was identified. ISKNV-miR-1 is complementary to the VP08R-coding sequence and can modulate VP08R expression through reducing its mRNA level. This suggests that formation of VMBM may be under fine regulation by ISKNV.

Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) has caused significant economic losses in the cultured Mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) industry. The molecular mechanisms that underlie the pathogenesis of the viral infection remain poorly understood. In this study, deep RNA sequencing technique was used to analyze the transcriptomic profiles of Mandarin fish brain cells (CPB) at progressive time points after ISKNV infection. A total of 96,206,040 clean data from 98,235,240 sequence reads were obtained. These raw data were assembled into 66,787 unigenes. Among these unigenes, 33,225 and 29,210 had significant hit the Nr and SwissProt databases where they matched 27,537and 19,638 unique protein accessions, respectively. In the samples harvested at 24 or 72 h post of the infection, a total of 10,834 or 7584 genes were differentially expressed in infected CPB cells compared to non-infected cells, including 5445 or 3766 up-regulated genes and 5389 or 3818 down-regulated genes, respectively. In addition, 12 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were validated by quantitative PCR. These DEGs were involved in many pathways of viral pathogenesis. Further analysis of the major DEGs genes involved in the RLRs and apoptosis pathways revealed some interesting findings. In the RLRs pathway, ISKNV infection inhibited the activation of NF-κB via over expression of the IKKB-α and IKKB-β and lessened expression of interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4). In the apoptosis pathway, ISKNV infection could induce apoptosis mainly via tumor necrosis factor (TNF) mediated extrinsic pathway. The cellular apoptosis induced by ISKNV infection was confirmed using annexinV-FITC/PI and DAPI staining methods.

Abstract
Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV), family Iridoviridae, genus Megalocytivirus, may cause high mortality rates such as those seen in mandarin fish, Siniperca chuatsi. ISKNV has attracted much attention due to the possible environmental threat and economic losses it poses on both cultured and wild populations. We have investigated the pathogenicity of ISKNV-like agent Megalocytivirus, isolated from infected pearl gourami, in golden mandarin fish, Siniperca scherzeri - a member of the Percichthyidae family - and in another Percichthyidae species, S. chuatsi. Fish were challenged with four different doses of ISKNV-like agent Megalocytivirus (1, 10, 100 or 1000 μg per fish) over a 30-day period, and cumulative fish mortalities were calculated for each group. No significant mortality was observed for fish challenged with the lowest dose (1 μg per fish) relative to a control group. However, all other challenged groups showed 100% mortality over a 30-day period in proportion to the challenge dose. Quantitative real-time PCR was performed to measure mRNA expression levels for six immune-related genes in golden mandarin fish following ISKNV-like agent challenge. mRNA expression levels for IRF1, Mx, viperin and interleukin 8 significantly increased, while mRNA levels for IRF2 and IRF7 remained constant or declined during the challenge period.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV), the type species of the genus Megalocytivirus, family Iridoviridae, brings great harm to fish farming. In infected tissues, ISKNV infection is characterized by a unique phenomenon, in that the infected cells are attached by lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), which are speculated to wall off the infected cells from host immune attack. A viral membrane protein, VP23R, binds and recruits the host nidogen-1 protein to construct a basement membrane (BM)-like structure, termed virus-mock basement membrane (VMBM), on the surface of infected cells to provide attaching sites for LECs. VMBMs do not contain collagen IV protein, which is essential for maintenance of BM integrity and functions. In this study, we identified the VP08R protein encoded by ISKNV. VP08R was predicted to be a secreted protein with a signal peptide but without a transmembrane domain. However, immunofluorescence assays demonstrated that VP08R is located on the plasma membrane of infected cells and shows an expression profile similar to that of VP23R. Coimmunoprecipitation showed that VP08R interacts with both VP23R and nidogen-1, indicating that VP08R is a component of VMBM and is present on the cell membrane by binding to VP23R. Through formation of intermolecular disulfide bonds, VP08R molecules self-organized into a multimer, which may play a role in the maintenance of VMBM integrity and stability. Moreover, the VP08R multimer was easily degraded when the ISKNV-infected cells were lysed, which may be a mechanism for VMBM disassembly when necessary to free LECs and release the mature virions. IMPORTANCE Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV; genus Megalocytivirus, family Iridovirus) is most harmful to cultured fishes. In tissues, the ISKNV-infected cells are attached by lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs), which are speculated to segregate the host immune system. A viral membrane protein, VP23R, binds and recruits the host nidogen-1 protein to construct virus-mock basement membranes (VMBMs) on the surface of infected cells to provide attaching sites for LECs. Although VMBMs lack the collagen IV network, which is an essential structural part of true BMs, VMBMs still show an intact structure. An ISKNV-encoded VP08R protein can self-assemble into a multimer and bind both VP23R and nidogen-1 to maintain the integrity and stability of VMBMs. On the basis of these facts, we redrew the putative schematic illustration of the VMBM structure. Our study suggests that the virus adopts a strategy to remodel the cellular matrix and may provide an important reference to elucidate BM functions and the mechanisms of lymphangiogenesis.

Abstract
Red sea bream iridovirus (RSIV) is a representative of the genus Megalocytivirus which causes severe disease to aquaculture fish, mainly in Japan and South-east Asia. However, information to assess the viral kinetics of RSIV in fish is limited since reports on experimental infection by the immersion route, which is the natural infection route, are scarce. In this study, a method to evaluate the titre of RSIV was first developed. Experimental infections were continuously performed using RSIV cell culture as the inoculum to juvenile Japanese amberjack (Seriola quinqueradiata) (initial body weight 12.2 g) by immersion at three different concentrations. In addition, to investigate the prevalence of the virus among the organs of experimentally infected fish, viral DNA was measured at selected times by the real-time PCR method following viral inoculation by immersion. The developed titration method showed a 102 increase in sensitivity compared with the conventional method. We demonstrated that grunt fin cells can be used for continuous passage of RSIV. In the experimental infection, fish which were intraperitoneally injected with the RSIV cell culture or immersed with RSIV cell culture at 10−2 and 10−3 dilutions showed cumulative mortalities of 100 %. The results of measurements of the viral DNA of several organs from infected fish strongly suggest that the spleen is the target organ of RSIV in Japanese amberjack. Since the viral genome was detected from all the tested organs of two of five surviving fish which appeared to completely recover from the disease, it is suggested that these fish may become carriers.

Abstract
Iridovirus infections remain a severe problem in aquaculture industries worldwide. Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV), the type species of the genus Megalocytovirus in the family Iridoviridae, has caused significant economic losses among freshwater fish in different Asian countries. To investigate the molecular mechanism of iridoviral pathogenesis, we analyzed the differential proteome from the spleen of ISKNV-infected zebrafish through two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). Mass spectrometry revealed 35 altered cellular protein spots, including 15 upregulated proteins and 20 downregulated proteins at five days post-infection. The altered host proteins were classified into 13 categories based on their biological processes: cytoskeletal protein, stress response, lipoprotein metabolism, ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, carbohydrate metabolism, signal transduction, proteolysis, ion binding, transport, metabolic process, catabolic process, biosynthesis, and oxidation reduction. Moreover, 14 corresponding genes of the differentially expressed proteins were validated by RT-PCR. Western blot analysis further demonstrated the changes in α-tubulin, β-actin, HSC70, and major capsid protein (MCP) during infection. β-Actin was selected for further study via co-immunoprecipitation analyses, which confirmed that the cellular β-actin interacts with the MCP protein of ISKNV in the infected zebrafish. These findings provide insight into the interactions between iridoviruses (especially ISKNV) and host, as well as the mechanism and pathogenesis of ISKNV infections.
