Abstract
We present the measurements of all-particle energy spectrum and mean logarithmic mass of cosmic rays in the energy range of 0.3-30 PeV using data collected from LHAASO-KM2A between September 2021 and December 2022, which is based on a nearly composition-independent energy reconstruction method, achieving unprecedented accuracy. Our analysis reveals the position of the knee at 3.67±0.05±0.15 PeV. Below the knee, the spectral index is found to be -2.7413±0.0004±0.0050, while above the knee, it is -3.128±0.005±0.027, with the sharpness of the transition measured with a statistical error of 2%. The mean logarithmic mass of cosmic rays is almost heavier than helium in the whole measured energy range. It decreases from 1.7 at 0.3 PeV to 1.3 at 3 PeV, representing a 24% decline following a power law with an index of -0.1200±0.0003±0.0341. This is equivalent to an increase in abundance of light components. Above the knee, the mean logarithmic mass exhibits a power law trend towards heavier components, which is reversal to the behavior observed in the all-particle energy spectrum. Additionally, the knee position and the change in power-law index are approximately the same. These findings suggest that the knee observed in the all-particle spectrum corresponds to the knee of the light component, rather than the medium-heavy components.

Abstract
Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates various biological processes in eukaryotes. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 9 (UBC9) is the sole E2-conjugating enzyme responsible for SUMOylation and plays an important role in essential cellular functions. Here, we cloned the UBC9 gene from sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus) (LjUBC9) and investigated its role in regulating the IFN response during red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection. The LjUBC9 gene consisted of 477 base pairs and encoded a polypeptide of 158 amino acids with an active site cysteine residue and a UBCc domain. Phylogenetic analysis showed that LjUBC9 shared the closest evolutionary relationship with UBC9 from Paralichthys olivaceus. Tissue expression profile analysis demonstrated that LjUBC9 was significantly increased in multiple tissues of sea perch following RGNNV infection. Further experiments showed that overexpression of LjUBC9 significantly increased the mRNA and protein levels of RGNNV capsid protein in LJB cells infected with RGNNV, nevertheless knockdown of LjUBC9 had the opposite effect, suggesting that LjUBC9 exerted a pro-viral effect during RGNNV infection. More importantly, we found that the 93rd cysteine is crucial for its pro-viral effect. Additionally, dual luciferase assays revealed that LjUBC9 prominently attenuated the promoter activities of sea perch type Ⅰ interferon (IFN) in RGNNV-infected cells, and overexpression of LjUBC9 markedly suppressed the transcription of key genes associated with RLRs-IFN pathway. In summary, these findings elucidate that LjUBC9 impairs the RLRs-IFN response, resulting in enhanced RGNNV infection.

Abstract
Viperin is an antiviral protein that exhibits a remarkably broad spectrum of antiviral activity. Viperin-like proteins are found all kingdoms of life, suggesting it is an ancient component of the innate immune system. However, viruses have developed strategies to counteract viperin's effects. Here, we describe a feedback loop between viperin and viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV), a common fish pathogen. We show that Lateolabrax japonicus viperin (Ljviperin) is induced by both IFN-independent and IFN-dependent pathways, with the C-terminal domain of Ljviperin being important for its anti-VHSV activity. Ljviperin exerts an antiviral effect by binding both the nucleoprotein (N) and phosphoprotein (P) of VHSV and induces their degradation through the autophagy pathway, which is an evolutionarily conserved antiviral mechanism. However, counteracting viperin's activity, N protein targets and degrades transcription factors that up-regulate Ljviperin expression, interferon regulatory factor (IRF) 1 and IRF9, through ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Together, our results reveal a previously unknown feedback loop between viperin and virus, providing potential therapeutic targets for VHSV prevention. Importance Viral hemorrhagic septicaemia (VHS) is a contagious disease caused by the viral hemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV), which poses a threat to over 80 species of marine and freshwater fish. Currently, there are no effective treatments available for this disease. Understanding the mechanisms of VHSV-host interaction is crucial for preventing viral infections. Here, we found that, as an ancient antiviral protein, viperin degrades the N and P proteins of VHSV through the autophagy pathway. Additionally, the N protein also impacts the biological functions of IRF1 and IRF9 through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, leading to the suppression of viperin expression. Therefore, the N protein may serve as a potential virulence factor for the development of VHSV vaccines and screening of antiviral drugs. Our research will serve as a valuable reference for the development of strategies to prevent VHSV infections.

Abstract
The diffuse Galactic γ-ray emission, mainly produced via interactions between cosmic rays and the interstellar medium and/or radiation field, is a very important probe of the distribution, propagation, and interaction of cosmic rays in the Milky Way. In this Letter, we report the measurements of diffuse γ rays from the Galactic plane between 10 TeV and 1 PeV energies, with the square kilometer array of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO). Diffuse emissions from the inner (15°10 TeV). The energy spectrum in the inner Galaxy regions can be described by a power-law function with an index of -2.99±0.04, which is different from the curved spectrum as expected from hadronic interactions between locally measured cosmic rays and the line-of-sight integrated gas content. Furthermore, the measured flux is higher by a factor of ∼3 than the prediction. A similar spectrum with an index of -2.99±0.07 is found in the outer Galaxy region, and the absolute flux for 10≲E≲60 TeV is again higher than the prediction for hadronic cosmic ray interactions. The latitude distributions of the diffuse emission are consistent with the gas distribution, while the longitude distributions show clear deviation from the gas distribution. The LHAASO measurements imply that either additional emission sources exist or cosmic ray intensities have spatial variations.

Abstract
Deep sea cold seep sediments have been discovered to harbor novel, abundant, and diverse bacterial and archaeal viruses. However, little is known about viral genetic features and evolutionary patterns in these environments. Here, we examined the evolutionary ecology of viruses across active and extinct seep stages in the area of Haima cold seeps in the South China Sea. A total of 338 viral operational taxonomic units are identified and linked to 36 bacterial and archaeal phyla. The dynamics of host-virus interactions are informed by diverse antiviral defense systems across 43 families found in 487 microbial genomes. Cold seep viruses are predicted to harbor diverse adaptive strategies to persist in this environment, including counter-defense systems, auxiliary metabolic genes, reverse transcriptases, and alternative genetic code assignments. Extremely low nucleotide diversity is observed in cold seep viral populations, being influenced by factors including microbial host, sediment depth, and cold seep stage. Most cold seep viral genes are under strong purifying selection with trajectories that differ depending on whether cold seeps are active or extinct. This work sheds light on the understanding of environmental adaptation mechanisms and evolutionary patterns of viruses in the sub-seafloor biosphere.

Abstract
Methylation at the N6 position of adenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal mRNA modification in eukaryotes, tightly associating with regulation of viral life circles and immune responses. Here, a methyltransferase-like 3 homolog gene from sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus), designated LjMETTL3, was cloned and characterized, and its negative role in fish virus pathogenesis was uncovered. The cDNA of LjMETTL3 encoded a 601-amino acid protein with a MT-A70 domain, which shared the closest genetic relationship with Echeneis naucrates METTL3. Spatial expression analysis revealed that LjMETTL3 was more abundant in the immune tissues of sea perch post red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) or viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) infection. LjMETTL3 expression was significantly upregulated at 12 and 24 h post RGNNV and VHSV infection in vitro. In addition, ectopic expression of LjMETTL3 inhibited RGNNV and VHSV infection in LJB cells at 12 and 24 h post infection, whereas knockdown of LjMETTL3 led to opposite effects. Furthermore, we found that LjMETTL3 may participate in boosting the type I interferon responses by interacting with TANK-binding kinase. Taken together, these results disclosed the antiviral role of fish METTL3 against RGNNV and VHSV and provided evidence for understanding the potential mechanisms of fish METTL3 in antiviral innate immunity.

Abstract
Ubiquitination, as one of the most prevalent posttranslational modifications of proteins, enables a tight control of host immune responses. Many viruses hijack the host ubiquitin system to regulate host antiviral responses for their survival. Here, we found that the fish pathogen nervous necrosis virus (NNV) recruited Lateolabrax japonicus E3 ubiquitin ligase ring finger protein 34 (LjRNF34) to inhibit the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR)-mediated interferon (IFN) response via ubiquitinating Lateolabrax japonicus TANK-binding kinase 1 (LjTBK1) and interferon regulatory factor 3 (LjIRF3). Ectopic expression of LjRNF34 greatly enhanced NNV replication and prevented IFN production, while deficiency of LjRNF34 led to the opposite effect. Furthermore, LjRNF34 targeted LjTBK1 and LjIRF3 via its RING domain. Of note, the interactions between LjRNF34 and LjTBK1 or LjIRF3 were conserved in different cellular models derived from fish. Mechanically, LjRNF34 promoted K27- and K48-linked ubiquitination and degradation of LjTBK1 and LjIRF3, which in turn diminished LjTBK1-induced translocation of LjIRF3 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Ultimately, NNV capsid protein (CP) was found to bind with LjRNF34, CP induced LjTBK1 and LjIRF3 degradation, and IFN suppression depended on LjRNF34. Our finding demonstrates a novel mechanism by which NNV CP evaded host innate immunity via LjRNF34 and provides a potential drug target for the control of NNV infection. IMPORTANCE Ubiquitination plays an essential role in the regulation of innate immune responses to pathogens. NNV, a type of RNA virus, is the causal agent of a highly destructive disease in a variety of marine and freshwater fish. A previous study reported NNV could hijack the ubiquitin system to manipulate the host's immune responses; however, how NNV utilizes ubiquitination to facilitate its own replication is not well understood. Here, we identified a novel distinct role of E3 ubiquitin ligase LjRNF34 as an IFN antagonist to promote NNV infection. NNV capsid protein utilized LjRNF34 to target LjTBK1 and LjIRF3 for K27- and K48-linked ubiquitination and degradation. Importantly, the interactions between LjRNF34 and CP, LjTBK1, or LjIRF3 are conserved in different cellular models derived from fish, suggesting it is a general immune evasion strategy exploited by NNV to target the IFN response via RNF34.

Abstract
Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have a tera-electron volt (TeV) afterglow, but the early onset of this has not been observed. We report observations with the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory of the bright GRB 221009A, which serendipitously occurred within the instrument field of view. More than 64,000 photons >0.2 TeV were detected within the first 3000 seconds. The TeV flux began several minutes after the GRB trigger, then rose to a peak about 10 seconds later. This was followed by a decay phase, which became more rapid ~650 seconds after the peak. We interpret the emission using a model of a relativistic jet with half-opening angle ~0.8°. This is consistent with the core of a structured jet and could explain the high isotropic energy of this GRB.

Abstract
Moloney leukemia virus 10 (MOV10) is a conserved RNA helicase and has multiple biological functions in mammals, but its role remains poorly understood in bony fish. Here, we cloned a MOV10 homolog from sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus), which contained 23 exons and 22 introns, with an open reading frame of 3000 bp encoding 1000 amino acids. Tissue distribution analysis showed that MOV10 was high expressed in blood of sea perch. Promoter analysis revealed several putative multiple transcription factors binding sites, including upstream transcription factor 1, GATA-box, transcription initiation factor IIB, activator protein 1 and two interferon (IFN) stimulated response elements. Further analysis found that IFNc, IFNh, and IFNγ could not only activate IFN regulatory factor (IRF) 1 expression which in turn led to the induction of MOV10, but also prompted the expression of IRF10 to hinder excessive MOV10 expression. Moreover, IRF2 also suppressed MOV10 expression that was initiated by IRF1. Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) infection upregulated MOV10 expression in vivo and in vitro, which in turn, enhanced IFNh expression and exhibited strong antiviral activity against VHSV proliferation. This study provides a basis to investigate the immune escape of VHSV by affecting the biological function of transcription factors in the signaling pathways associated with antiviral molecules.

Abstract
Deep sea cold seep sediments host abundant and diverse microbial populations that significantly influence biogeochemical cycles. While numerous studies have revealed their community structure and functional capabilities, little is known about genetic heterogeneity within species. Here, we examine intraspecies diversity patterns of 39 abundant species identified in sediment layers down to 430 cm below the sea floor across six cold seep sites. These populations are grouped as aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria, anaerobic methanotrophic archaea and sulfate-reducing bacteria. Different evolutionary trajectories are observed at the genomic level among these physiologically and phylogenetically diverse populations, with generally low rates of homologous recombination and strong purifying selection. Functional genes related to methane (pmoA and mcrA) and sulfate (dsrA) metabolisms are under strong purifying selection in most species investigated. These genes differ in evolutionary trajectories across phylogenetic clades but are functionally conserved across sites. Intrapopulation diversification of genomes and their mcrA and dsrA genes is depth-dependent and subject to different selection pressure throughout the sediment column redox zones at different sites. These results highlight the interplay between ecological processes and the evolution of key bacteria and archaea in deep sea cold seep extreme environments, shedding light on microbial adaptation in the subseafloor biosphere.

Abstract
The kilometer square array (KM2A) of the large high altitude air shower observatory (LHAASO) aims at surveying the northern γ-ray sky at energies above 10 TeV with unprecedented sensitivity. γ-ray observations have long been one of the most powerful tools for dark matter searches, as, e.g., high-energy γ rays could be produced by the decays of heavy dark matter particles. In this Letter, we present the first dark matter analysis with LHAASO-KM2A, using the first 340 days of data from 1/2-KM2A and 230 days of data from 3/4-KM2A. Several regions of interest are used to search for a signal and account for the residual cosmic-ray background after γ/hadron separation. We find no excess of dark matter signals, and thus place some of the strongest γ-ray constraints on the lifetime of heavy dark matter particles with mass between 10^{5} and 10^{9} GeV. Our results with LHAASO are robust, and have important implications for dark matter interpretations of the diffuse astrophysical high-energy neutrino emission.

Abstract
Members from the Inoviridae family with striking features are widespread, highly diverse, and ecologically pervasive across multiple hosts and environments. However, a small number of inoviruses have been isolated and studied. Here, a filamentous phage infecting Alteromonas abrolhosensis, designated ϕAFP1, was isolated from the South China Sea and represented a novel genus of Inoviridae. ϕAFP1 consisted of a single-stranded DNA genome (5986 bp), encoding eight putative ORFs. Comparative analyses revealed ϕAFP1 could be regarded as genetic mosaics having homologous sequences with Ralstonia and Stenotrophomonas phages. The temporal transcriptome analysis of A. abrolhosensis to ϕAFP1 infection revealed that 7.78% of the host genes were differentially expressed. The genes involved in translation processes, ribosome pathways, and degradation of multiple amino acid pathways at the plateau period were upregulated, while host material catabolic and bacterial motility-related genes were downregulated, indicating that ϕAFP1 might hijack the energy of the host for the synthesis of phage proteins. ϕAFP1 exerted step-by-step control on host genes through the appropriate level of utilizing host resources. Our study provided novel information for a better understanding of filamentous phage characteristics and phage-host interactions. IMPORTANCE Alteromonas is widely distributed and plays a vital role in biogeochemical in marine environments. However, little information about Alteromonas phages is available. Here, we isolated and characterized the biological characteristics and genome sequence of a novel inovirus infecting Alteromonas abrolhosensis, designated ϕAFP1, representing a novel viral genus of Inoviridae. We then presented a comprehensive view of the ϕAFP1 phage-Alteromonas abrolhosensis interactions, elucidating reprogramed host metabolism and motility. Our study provided novel information for better comprehension of filamentous phage characteristics and phage-host interactions.

Abstract
Autophagy-related gene 5 (Atg5), an essential component of autophagy machinery, is associated with innate immune responses. Here, the Atg5 of sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus) (LjAtg5) was cloned and its role in regulating autophagy and interferon (IFN) response during red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection was investigated. The LjAtg5 cDNA encoded a polypeptide of 275 amino acids with an APG5 domain, and had the closet genetic relationship with Micropterus salmoides Atg5. Autophagic detection showed LjAtg5 was conserved in inducing cell autophagy. Spatial expression analysis revealed LjAtg5 had a higher expression level in liver, brain, and kidney tissues of RGNNV-infected sea perch compared with the control group. In RGNNV-infected LJB cells, overexpression of LjAtg5 significantly increased the mRNA and protein levels of capsid protein, whereas knockdown of LjAtg5 led to the opposite effect, indicating LjAtg5 played a pro-viral role during RGNNV infection. Furthermore, dual luciferase reporter assay revealed LjAtg5 significantly suppressed the activation of sea perch type I IFN promoter in vitro, and overexpression of LjAtg5 strongly weaken the expression of genes related to the RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) signaling pathway and IFN stimulated genes. These results suggested LjAtg5 promoted RGNNV infection by negatively regulating RLRs-IFN signaling pathway.

Abstract
Autophagy, a conserved cellular degradative process, plays a crucial role in innate immunity during viral infections. Nervous necrosis virus (NNV), a leading cause of fish diseases with morbidity and mortality, triggers cell autophagy to promote viral replication; however, the details of how NNV utilises autophagy to facilitate its own replication remain largely unexplored. Here, we investigated the mechanism by which the sea perch Nectin4 (LjNectin4), a receptor of NNV, regulates autophagy and the innate immune system by targeting TNFR-associated factor 3 (TRAF3). Our data demonstrated that LjNectin4 directly binds to the NNV capsid protein and facilitates NNV entry, indicating that LjNectin4 functions as an NNV receptor. Moreover, LjNectin4 promoted NNV replication by inhibiting key elements of the RLR signalling pathway (MDA5, MAVS, TRAF3, TBK1, and IRF3)-induced IFN response. Mechanistically, LjNectin4 directly interacted with TRAF3 and promoted its autophagy-mediated lysosomal degradation. Domain mapping of the interaction between TRAF3 and LjNectin4 or TBK1 showed that both LjNectin4 and TBK1 interacted with the ZF2 and TRAF-C domains of TRAF3, suggesting that LjNectin4 blocked TRAF3-TBK1 complex formation. Collectively, our study revealed that NNV utilises LjNectin4 to suppress IFN production by mediating TRAF3 autophagic degradation and disrupting the TRAF3-TBK1 complex, thereby promoting NNV replication.

Abstract
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV), a highly pathogenic RNA virus, is a major pathogen in the global aquaculture industry. To efficiently infect fish, NNV must evade or subvert the host IFN for their replication; however, the precise mechanisms remain to be elucidated. In this study, we reported that capsid protein (CP) of red-spotted grouper NNV (RGNNV) suppressed the IFN antiviral response to promote RGNNV replication in Lateolabrax japonicus brain cells, which depended on the ARM, S, and P domains of CP. CP showed an indirect or direct association with the key components of retinoic acid-inducible gene-I-like receptors signaling, L. japonicus TNFR-associated factor 3 (LjTRAF3) and IFN regulatory factor (LjIRF3), respectively, and degraded LjTRAF3 and LjIRF3 through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in HEK293T cells. Furthermore, we found that CP potentiated LjTRAF3 K48 ubiquitination degradation in a L. japonicus ring finger protein 114-dependent manner. LjIRF3 interacted with CP through the S domain of CP and the transcriptional activation domain or regulatory domain of LjIRF3. CP promoted LjIRF3 K48 ubiquitination degradation, leading to the reduced phosphorylation level and nuclear translocation of LjIRF3. Taken together, we demonstrated that CP inhibited type I IFN response by a dual strategy to potentiate the ubiquitination degradation of LjTRAF3 and LjIRF3. This study reveals a novel mechanism of RGNNV evading host immune response via its CP protein that will provide insights into the complex pathogenesis of NNV.

Abstract
Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: None.
Background
Cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) use is steadily increasing, with subsequent need to solve lead failure issues and device upgrades with an occluded vein. Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) has inherent risks that must be carefully weighed. Currently there is lack of conclusive data regarding many non-infectious indications.
Methods
A retrospective study on indications and outcomes of TLE for non-infectious reasons at our medical center, between the years 2011 to 2020 was performed. Occluded vein (OV) presence was compared for characteristics, extraction methods and periprocedural complications and outcomes.
Results
A total of 88 patients underwent TLE for non-infectious reasons. The majority were referred due to lead malfunction (70.5%) and CIED upgrade with an OV (25%), while 4 patients had other TLE indication (intractable pain, heart transplant, severe Tricuspid regurgitation, and irradiation). fourteen patients referred due to lead malfunction had an OV observed during venography.
The OV group (36 patients) were significantly older (65.7±14.1 vs 53.8±15.9 respectively, p=0.001) and had more comorbidities. EF was significantly lower for the OV group (27.5% vs 57.5%, p=0.001) as was longer lead dwell time (3226±2324 vs 2191±1355 days, respectively, p=0.012).
Major complications were exclusive for the OV group (16.7% vs none, p=0.02), and most minor complications occurred in the OV group as well (38.9% vs 4.1% respectively, p<0.001). Laser sheath and Mechanical tools for TLE were frequently used for OV as compared to the non-occluded group (94.4% vs 73.5% respectively, p=0.012). Procedure success was higher in the non-occluded group compared to the OV group (98% vs 83.3%, respectively, p=0.047). Despite these results, peri-procedural mortality was similar between groups.
Conclusions
Among TLE for non-infectious reasons, vein occlusion appears as a major predictor for complex TLE tools use, complications, and procedural success. Venography should be routinely performed prior to non-infectious TLE to identify high-risk patients.

Abstract
Upon virus invasion of the host, APCs process Ags to short peptides for presentation by MHC class II (MHC-II). The recognition of virus-derived peptides in the context of MHC-II by CD4+ T cells initiates the adaptive immune response for virus clearance. As a survival instinct, viruses have evolved mechanisms to evade Ag processing and presentation. In this study, we discovered that IFN-γ induced endogenous MHC-II expression by a sea perch brain cell line through the STAT1/IFN regulatory factor 1 (IRF1)/CIITA signaling pathway. Furthermore, viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus infection significantly inhibited the IFN-γ-induced expression of IRF1, CIITA, MHC-II-α, and MHC-II-β genes. By contrast, although STAT1 transcript was upregulated, paradoxically, the STAT1 protein level was attenuated. Moreover, overexpression analysis revealed that viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus N protein blocked the IFN-γ-induced expression of IRF1, CIITA, MHC-II-α, and MHC-II-β genes, but not the STAT1 gene. We also found out that N protein interacted with STAT1 and enhanced the overall ubiquitination level of proteins, including STAT1 in Lateolabrax japonicus brain cells. Enhanced ubiquitination of STAT1 through K48-linked ubiquitination led to its degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, thereby inhibiting the biological function of STAT1. Our study suggests that aquatic viruses target Ag presentation in lower vertebrates for immune evasion as do mammalian viruses.

Abstract
Yellowfin sea bream (Acanthopagrus latus) is an important economic fish, which is seriously threatened by various fish viruses. In this study, a cell line designated as ALL derived from the liver of yellowfin sea bream was developed and characterized. The cell line grew well in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium containing 10%-20% foetal bovine serum at 28°C. Amplification of the cytochrome B gene indicated that ALL cells originated from yellowfin sea bream. The modal chromosome number of ALL cells was 48. ALL cells were efficiently transfected with pEGFP-N3 plasmids, indicating the potential application of ALL cells in exogenous gene manipulation studies. ALL cells were susceptive to three main fish viruses, including viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV), red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) and largemouth bass virus (LMBV). The replication of VHSV, RGNNV and LMBV in ALL cells was confirmed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, virus titre and transmission electron microscopy assays. Moreover, ALL cells could respond to VHSV, RGNNV and LMBV infections, as indicated by the differential expression of antiviral genes involving in the innate immune response. In conclusion, the newly established ALL cell line will be an excellent in vitro platform for the study of the virus-yellowfin sea bream interaction.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in post-transcriptional repression in nearly every biological process including germ cell development. Previously, we have identified a zebrafish germ plasm-specific miRNA miR-202-5p, which regulates PGC migration through targeting cdc42se1 to protect cdc42 expression. However, knockdown of cdc42se1 could not significantly rescue PGC migration in maternal miR-202 mutant (MmiR-202) embryos, indicating that there are other target genes of miR-202-5p required for the regulation of PGC migration. Herein, we revealed the transcriptional profiles of wild type and MmiR-202 PGCs and obtained 129 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), of which 42 DEGs were enriched cell migration-related signaling pathways. From these DEGs, we identified two novel miR-202-5p target genes prdm12b and rab10. Furthermore, we found that disruption of rab10 expression led to significantly migratory defects of PGC by overexpression of rab10 siRNA, or WT, inactive as well as active forms of rab10 mRNA, and WT rab10 overexpression mediated migratory defects could be partially but significantly rescued by overexpression of miR-202-5p, demonstrating that rab10 is an important factor involved miR-202-5p mediated regulation of PGC migration. Taken together, the present results provide significant information for understanding the molecular mechanism by which miR-202-5p regulates PGC migration in zebrafish.

Abstract
CXC Chemokine signaling plays an important role in wound healing. The four-eyed sleeper (Bostrychus sinensis) is a commercially important marine fish, which is prone to suffer skin ulceration at high temperature seasons, leading to mass mortality of fish in aquaculture farms. The genetic background related to skin ulceration and wound healing has remained unknown in this fish. Herein, we identified 10 differentially expressed Bostrychus sinensis CXC chemokine receptors (BsCXCRs) in skin ulcerated fish by de novo transcriptome sequencing. The transcripts of these BsCXCRs were classified in seven types, including BsCXCR1a/1b, BsCXCR2, BsCXCR3a1/3a2, BsCXCR4a/4b, and BsCXCR5-7, and BsCXCR6 was the first CXCR6 homologue experimentally identified in teleost fish. These BsCXCRs were further characterized in gene and protein structures, as well as phylogenetics, and the results revealed that BsCXCRs have expanded to divergent homologues. Our results showed that, in healthy fish, the BsCXCR transcripts was mainly distributed in the muscle and immune related organs, and that BsCXCR1a/1b proteins located in the cytomembrane, BsCXCR4a/4b/5/6 in the cytomembrane and perinuclear region, and BsCXCR3a1/3a2/7 in the cytomembrane, perinuclear region, and nuclear membrane, respectively. In skin injured fish, the transcripts of all BsCXCRs were transiently increased within one hour after injury, suggesting the involvement of BsCXCRs into the early inflammatory response to skin injury in the four-eyed sleeper. These results are valuable for understanding the evolutionary events of fish CXCR genes and provide insights into the roles of CXCR family in fish skin injury.

Abstract
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) is one of the most destructive fish viruses and affects more than 120 marine and freshwater teleost species. However, the pathogenesis of NNV has not been made clear. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of viral infection. To understand the roles and regulation patterns of miRNAs in NNV infection, high-throughput sequencing was carried out in Lateolabrax japonicus brain (LJB) cells with or without red-spotted grouper NNV (RGNNV) infection at 12 and 24 hr. Here, we identified 59 known and 61 novel differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs) between mock and RGNNV-infected LJB cells. KEGG pathway analysis showed that the target genes of DE miRNAs were significantly enriched in immune-related signalling pathways, such as autophagy, mitophagy and TGF-beta signalling pathways. The expression patterns of four DE miRNAs (lja-miR-145, lja-miR-182, lja-miR-183 and lja-miR-187) were verified by qRT-PCR both in vivo and in vitro. We found that lja-miR-145 promoted RGNNV proliferation, while lja-miR-183 suppressed RGNNV proliferation. Furthermore, lja-miR-145 facilitated RGNNV-induced autophagy activation, whereas lja-miR-183 repressed autophagy in LJB cells as measured by LC3B-II/I and p62 protein levels. All these results indicate the involvement of lja-miR-145 and lja-miR-183 in RGNNV-induced autophagy. In conclusion, this study provides evidence for the important roles of miRNAs in NNV infection and a basis for uncovering the molecular regulation mechanism of NNV-induced autophagy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine expression characteristics of XTP8 and TGIF1 in gastric carcinoma (GC), and the potential roles of XTP8/TGIF1 axis in influencing the progression of GC. MATERIALS AND METHODS The expression levels of XTP8 and TGIF1 in GC tissues and cells were detected. Their functions in prognosis in GC patients were evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The correlation between the XTP8 level and the pathological indexes of the GC patients were analyzed. The changes in the proliferation, migration, and invasion capacities of MKN-45 and SGC-7901 cells affected by XTP8 and TGIF1 were assessed. The interaction between XTP8 and TGIF1 was determined through Dual-Luciferase reporter gene assay and rescue experiments. RESULTS XTP8 was upregulated in GC tissues and cells. XTP8 level was positively correlated with lymphatic and distant metastasis, as well as poor prognosis of GC patients. The silence of XTP8 attenuated proliferation, migration, and invasion capacities of MKN-45 and SGC-7901 cells. TGIF1 was the downstream gene binding to XTP8, which was downregulated in GC, and XTP8 negatively regulated the TGIF1 level in GC tissues. Importantly, the knockdown of TGIF1 could abolish the regulatory effect of XTP8 on GC cell behaviors. CONCLUSIONS XTP8 is upregulated in GC and is closely linked to lymphatic metastasis, distant metastasis, and poor prognosis of GC patients. Besides, it accelerates the malignant progression via negatively regulating TGIF1.

Abstract
Tilapia is one of the most important economic and fastest-growing species in aquaculture worldwide. In 2015, an epidemic associated with severe mortality occurred in adult tilapia in Hubei, China. The causative pathogen was identified as Tilapia parvovirus (TiPV) by virus isolation, electron microscopy, experimental challenge, In situ hybridization (ISH), indirect immunofluorescence (IFA), and viral gene sequencing. Electron microscopy revealed large numbers of parvovirus particles in the organs of diseased fish, including kidney, spleen, liver, heart, brain, gill, intestine, etc. The virions were spherical in shape, non-enveloped and approximately 30nm in diameter. The TiPV was isolated and propagated in tilapia brain cells (TiB) and induced a typical cytopathic effect (CPE) after 3 days post-infection (dpi). This virus was used to experimentally infect adult tilapia and clinical disease symptoms similar to those observed naturally were replicated. Additionally, the results of ISH and IFA showed positive signals in kidney and spleen tissues from TiPV-infected fish. To identify TiPV-specific sequences, the near complete genome of TiPV was obtained and determined to be 4269 bp in size. Phylogenetic analysis of the NS1 sequence revealed that TiPV is a novel parvovirus, forms a separate branch in proposed genus Chapparvovirus of Parvoviridae. Results presented here confirm that TiPV is a novel parvovirus pathogen that can cause massive mortality in adult tilapia. This provides a basis for the further studies to define the epidemiology, pathology, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of this emerging viral disease. A novel parvovirus isolated from adult tilapia causes substantial morbidity and mortality. Using a SISPA-PCR and RACE, we identified and characterized 4269 nucleotides of this parvovirus. Tentatively named Tilapia parvovirus (TiPV), this is to our knowledge the first putative member of the family Parvoviridae shown to infect a teleost host. We found that a nucleotide sequence similarity search by BLASTX had no significant matches with other viruses, while amino acid sequence comparison indicated approximately 34.6% ~ 50.0% amino acids (aa) homology with other parvoviruses. Similarities between the genomes of parvoviruses infecting hosts in different phyla or divisions indicate a need to update previously suggested hypotheses on the origins of parvovirus. Our findings may represent new avenues to explain viral evolution and suggest a need to further study parvovirus pathogenesis.

Abstract
Deubiquitinases are widely involved in the regulation of the virus-triggered type I interferon (IFN) signaling. Here, we found sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus) ubiquitin-specific protease 5 (LjUSP5) was a negative regulatory factor of the red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV)-triggered IFN response. LjUSP5 encoded a polypeptide of 830 amino acids, containing a zinc finger UBP domain (residues 197-270 aa), two ubiquitin-associated domains (residues 593-607 aa; 628-665 aa), and one UBP domain (residues 782-807 aa), and shared the closest genetic relationship with the USP5 of Larimichthys crocea. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that LjUSP5 was ubiquitously expressed and up-regulated significantly in all inspected tissues post RGNNV infection, and its transcripts significantly increased in brain, liver and kidney tissues post RGNNV infection. LjUSP5 was up-regulated in cultured LJB cells after poly I:C and RGNNV treatments. In addition, overexpression of LjUSP5 significantly inhibited the activation of zebrafish IFN 1 promoter and promoted RGNNV replication in vitro. Furthermore, LjUSP5 inhibited the activation of zebrafish IFN 1 promoter induced by key genes of retinoic acid-inducible gene I-like receptors signaling pathway. Our findings provides useful information for further elucidating the mechanism underlying NNV infection.

Abstract
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) can infect many species of fish and causes serious acute or persistent infection. However, its pathogenic mechanism is still far from clear. Specific cellular surface receptors are crucial determinants of the species tropism of a virus and its pathogenesis. Here, the heat shock protein 90ab1 of marine model fish species marine medaka (MmHSP90ab1) was identified as a novel receptor of red-spotted grouper NNV (RGNNV). MmHSP90ab1 interacted directly with RGNNV capsid protein (CP). Specifically, MmHSP90ab1 bound to the linker region (LR) of CP through its NM domain. Inhibition of MmHSP90ab1 by HSP90-specific inhibitors or MmHSP90ab1 siRNA caused significant inhibition of viral binding and entry, whereas its overexpression led to the opposite effect. The binding of RGNNV to cultured marine medaka hMMES1 cells was inhibited by blocking cell surface-localized MmHSP90ab1 with anti-HSP90β antibodies or pretreating virus with recombinant MmHSP90ab1 or MmHSP90ab1-NM protein, indicating MmHSP90ab1 was an attachment receptor for RGNNV. Furthermore, we found that MmHSP90ab1 formed a complex with CP and marine medaka heat shock cognate 70, a known NNV receptor. Exogenous expression of MmHSP90ab1 independently facilitated the internalization of RGNNV into RGNNV impenetrable cells (HEK293T), which was blocked by chlorpromazine, an inhibitor of clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Further study revealed that MmHSP90ab1 interacted with the marine medaka clathrin heavy chain. Collectively, these data suggest that MmHSP90ab1 is a functional part of the RGNNV receptor complex and involved in the internalization of RGNNV via the clathrin endocytosis pathway.

Abstract
In many lower animals, germ cell formation, migration, and maintenance depend on maternally provided determinants in germ plasm. In zebrafish, these processes have been extensively studied in terms of RNA-binding proteins and other coding genes. The role of small non-coding RNAs in the regulation of primordial germ cell (PGC) development remains largely unknown and poorly investigated, even though growing interests for the importance of miRNAs involved in a wide variety of biological processes. Here, we reported the role and mechanism of the germ plasm-specific miRNA miR-202-5p in PGC migration: (i) both maternal loss and knockdown of miR-202-5p impaired PGC migration indicated by the mislocalization and reduced number of PGCs; (ii) cdc42se1 was a direct target gene of miR-202-5p, and overexpression of Cdc42se1 in PGCs caused PGC migration defects similar to those observed in loss of miR-202-5p mutants; (iii) Cdc42se1 not only interacted with Cdc42 but also inhibited cdc42 transcription, and overexpression of Cdc42 could rescue PGC migration defects in Cdc42se1 overexpressed embryos. Thus, miR-202-5p regulates PGC migration by directly targeting and repressing Cdc42se1 to protect the expression of Cdc42, which interacts with actin to direct PGC migration.

Abstract
The RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) signaling pathway is essential for inducing type I interferon (IFN) responses to viral infections. Meanwhile, it is also tightly regulated to prevent uncontrolled immune responses. Numerous studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential for the regulation of immune processes, however, the detailed molecular mechanism of miRNA regulating the RLRs signaling pathway remains to be elucidated. Here, our results showed that miR-202-5p was induced by red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection in zebrafish. Overexpression of miR-202-5p led to reduced expression of IFN 1 and its downstream antiviral genes, thus facilitating viral replication in vitro. In comparison, significantly enhanced levels of IFN 1 and antiviral genes and significantly low viral burden were observed in the miR-202-5p-/- zebrafish compared to wild type zebrafish. Subsequently, zebrafish tripartite motif-containing protein 25 (zbTRIM25) was identified as a target of miR-202-5p in both zebrafish and humans. Ectopic expression of miR-202-5p suppressed zbTRIM25-mediated RLRs signaling pathway. Furthermore, we showed that miR-202-5p inhibited zbTRIM25-mediated zbRIG-I ubiquitination and activation of IFN production. In conclusion, we demonstrate that RGNNV-inducible miR-202-5p acts as a negative regulator of zbRIG-I-triggered antiviral innate response by targeting zbTRIM25. Our study reveals a novel mechanism for the evasion of the innate immune response controlled by RGNNV.

Abstract
RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) play important roles in response to virus infection by regulating host innate immune signaling pathways. Meanwhile, the RLR signaling pathway is also tightly regulated by host and virus to achieve the immune homeostasis between antiviral responses and virus survival. Here, we found that zebrafish TRIM25 (zbTRIM25) functioned as a positive regulator of RLR signaling pathway during red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection. Post-RGNNV infection, zbTRIM25 expression was obviously inhibited and ectopic expression of zbTRIM25 led to enhanced expression of RLR signaling pathway-related genes. Overexpression and knockdown analysis revealed that zbTRIM25 promoted zebrafish RIG-I (zbRIG-I)-mediated IFN signaling and inhibited RGNNV replication. Mechanistically, zbTRIM25 bound to zbRIG-I; in particular, the SPRY domain of zbTRIM25 interacted with the tandem caspase activation and recruitment domains (2CARD) and repressor domain (RD) regions of zbRIG-I. zbTRIM25 promoted the K63 polyubiquitination of 2CARD and RD regions of zbRIG-I. Furthermore, zbTRIM25-mediated zbRIG-I activation of IFN production was enhanced by K63-linked ubiquitin, indicating that zbTRIM25-mediated zbRIG-I polyubiquitination was essential for RIG-I-triggered IFN induction. In conclusion, these findings reveal a novel mechanism that zbTRIM25 positively regulates the innate immune response by targeting and promoting the K63-linked polyubiquitination of zbRIG-I.

Abstract
Fish rhabdoviruses are a family of viruses responsible for large-scale fish die-offs worldwide. Here, we reported the isolation and identification of a member of rhabdoviruses from wild largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) in the coastal area of the Pearl River Estuary, China. This virus isolate was identified as viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV) by specific RT-PCR. Furthermore, the virus (VHSVLB2018) was isolated by cell culture using fathead minnow cells and confirmed by RT-PCR. Electron microscopy showed the presence of bullet-shaped viral particles in the cytoplasm of infected cells. The complete sequencing of VHSVLB2018 confirmed that it was genome configuration typical of rhabdoviruses. Phylogenetic analysis based on whole-genome sequences and G gene nucleotides sequences revealed that VHSVLB2018 was assigned to VHSV genogroup Ⅳa. The pathogenicity of VHSVLB2018 was determined in infection experiments using specific pathogen-free largemouth bass juveniles. VHSVLB2018-infected fish showed typical clinical signs of VHSV disease, including darkened skin, petechial haemorrhages and pale enlarged livers, with the cumulative mortalities reached 63.3%-93.3% by 7 days post-infection. VHSVLB2018 was re-isolated from dead fish and confirmed by RT-PCR. Together, this is the first report of isolation and identification of a VHSV isolate from wild largemouth bass in China.

Abstract
A cell line (PaF) derived from the fin tissue of silver pomfret (Pampus argenteus) was established and characterized in this study. The cell line has been subcultured for more than 50 times in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 15% foetal bovine serum (FBS) since the initial primary culture. PaF cells grew well at temperatures from 24°C to 28°C in DMEM supplemented with 15% FBS. Partial amplification and sequence analysis of the cytochrome B gene indicated that PaF originated from silver pomfret. Cytogenetic analysis demonstrated that the modal chromosome number was 48. A significant cytopathic effect was observed in PaF cells during viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV) infection, and the VHSV replication was confirmed by qRT-PCR and viral titre assays. In contrast, PaF cells were resistant to red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus infection. Moreover, PaF cells could respond to VHSV and lipopolysaccharide treatments, as indicated by the expression of immune-related genes, TLR5 and TLR9. In conclusion, the establishment of PaF cell line will provide an appropriate in vitro tool for the study of mechanisms of pathogen-silver pomfret interaction.

Abstract
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV), one of the most prevalent fish pathogens, has caused significant losses in both yield and economy to the aquaculture. Host factors involved in NNV infection remain to be identified due to the lack of ideal model for the study of NNV and host interaction. Haploid stem cells have proven to be ideal materials in genetic screens. Here, we generated a cell line HX1G1 (simply named G1) with the activity against red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) by N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU)-mediated whole genome random mutagenesis from the haploid embryonic stem cell HX1a, a cell clone from haploid cell line HX1 that we previously derived from the medaka fish. G1 cells retained the characteristics of haploidy and pluripotency as indicated by the EBs differentiation ability after genetic mutagenesis. Compared with HX1a cells, no typical cytopathic effects were observed, and the expression of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RDRP) was significantly reduced in G1 cells post RGNNV infection, indicating the enhanced anti-RGNNV activity of G1. Furthermore, we demonstrated that RGNNV entry into G1 cells was partially inhibited, and this inhibition might be relevant to the induced mutation of heat shock cognate protein 70 (HSC70) which was decisive for NNV entry. Interestingly, G1 cells were to some extent permissive to RGNNV infection, but RGNNV was spontaneously cleared in G1 cells during serial passage. In addition, we also found that the expression levels of interferon (IFN)-related genes were higher in G1 cells than those in HX1a cells, suggesting that viral clearance might be associated with the elevated expression of IFN-related genes in G1 cells.

Abstract
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) is one of the fish pathogens that have caused mass mortalities of many marine and freshwater fishes in the world. To better comprehend the molecular immune mechanism of sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus) against NNV infection, the comparative transcriptome analysis of red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV)-infected or mock-infected L. japonicus brain (LJB) cells was performed via RNA sequencing technology. Here, 1,969 up-regulated genes and 9,858 down-regulated genes, which were widely implicated in immune response pathways, were identified. Furthermore, we confirmed that p53 signalling pathway was repressed at 48 hr post-RGNNV infection, as indicated by up-regulation of Mdm2 and down-regulation of p53 and its downstream target genes, including Bax, Casp8 and CytC. Overexpression of L. japonicus p53 (Ljp53) significantly inhibited RGNNV replication and up-regulated the expression of apoptosis-related genes, whereas the down-regulation caused by pifithrin-α led to the opposite effect, suggesting Ljp53 might promote cell apoptosis to repress virus replication. Luciferase assay indicated that Ljp53 could enhance the promoter activities of zebrafish interferon (IFN)1, indicating that Ljp53 could exert its anti-RGNNV activities by enforcing the type I IFN response. This study revealed the potential antiviral role of p53 during NNV infection.

Abstract
Identification of germ cell markers is important for investigating reproduction biology in fish. Vasa is one of the most studied germ cell markers in mammals and lower vertebrates including fish. Here, we characterized a vasa homologue from the fish marbled goby (Oxyeleotris marmorata), termed omvasa. The full length of omvasa cDNA is 2344 bp and encodes 658 amino acids, sharing high identities with Vasa homologues of other vertebrates. OmVasa protein contains 15 RG/RGG repeats at N-terminus, 2 ATPase motifs, as well as RNA unwinding and RNA binding domains at C-terminus. Phylogenetic tree showed that omVasa had the closest relationship with the Vasa homologue from the fish Boleophthalmus pectinirostris, the great blue-spotted mudskipper. qRT-PCR analysis indicated that omvasa was specifically transcribed in gonads, and the transcription level was gradually increased during oocyte development. The germ cell-specific distribution of omvasa mRNA was revealed by fluorescent in situ hybridization. In ovary, the signal of omvasa RNA displayed strong-weak-strong dynamics from oogonia over pre-vitellogenic oocytes to vitellogenic oocytes. In testis, omvasa signal was strong in spermatogonia, modest in spermatocytes but undetectable in spermatids and somatic cells. During embryogenesis, the transcription of omvasa mRNA was high at blastula stage, gradually decreased from gastrula stage and maintained at a low level in later developmental stages. Whole mount in situ hybridization indicated that omvasa mRNA was specific to primordial germ cells (PGCs). In summary, marbled goby vasa is a germ cell-specific transcript during gametogenesis, and can be used as an ideal marker for tracing PGC formation and migration, which is pivotal to germ cell manipulation in this species.

Here, an IRF3 gene from sea perch (LjIRF3) was identified and its role in regulating early apoptosis signaling and IFN response was investigated during red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection. The cDNA of LjIRF3 encoded a putative 465 amino acids protein, containing a DNA binding domain, an IRF association domain and a serine-rich domain. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that LjIRF3 shared the closest genetic relationship with Epinephelus coioides IRF3. LjIRF3 was constitutively expressed in all examined tissues with the highest expression level in the liver. Upon RGNNV infection, mRNA transcript level of LjIRF3 was significantly up-regulated in vivo and in vitro, indicating the involvement of LjIRF3 in immune response to RGNNV infection. Furthermore, overexpression of LjIRF3 significantly suppressed RGNNV replication in vitro, meanwhile significantly up-regulating the expression of IFNI and IFN stimulated genes and resulting in the activation of caspase 3 and 9 proteases in the early stage of RGNNV infection. In short, these results demonstrated that LjIRF3 exerted antiviral function against RGNNV infection via triggering early apoptotic cell death and inducing IRF3-dependent IFN immune response.

Abstract
Interferon stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) is an IFN inducible ubiquitin-like protein and plays a critical role in immune response against viral infection. In this study, an ISG15 gene (AsISG15) was cloned and characterized from the marine fish black seabream, Acanthopagrus schlegelii. The full-length cDNA of AsISG15 was 1302 bp and encoded 155 amino acids containing two ubiquitin-like motifs and a LRGG conjugation domain. Multiple alignment and phylogenetic tree showed that AsISG15 shared 31-70% amino acid identity with other known ISG15s and had a closer evolutionary relationship with teleost ISG15s. In vitro, AsISG15 expression was inducible by poly I:C, LPS and red spotted nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) in cultured black seabream brain cells. In vivo, AsISG15 was ubiquitously expressed in all examined tissues with higher expression levels in eye and gill, and the expression was significantly up-regulated in most tissues post RGNNV infection, especially in liver, spleen and kidney. The testing of antiviral activity showed that silencing AsISG15 significantly increased RGNNV replication in RGNNV infected AsS cells, and the LRGG domain was crucial for the anti-RGNNV activity of AsISG15. By promoter-driven luciferase reporter assay, we demonstrated that two IFN-stimulated response elements within the promoter region of AsISG15 and the promoter-proximal intron were essential for AsISG15 expression. Furthermore, our results showed that the gamma-IFN activation sequence located in the intron was required for the intron mediated enhancement for AsISG15 expression. Our results would provide insights for understanding the underlying regulation mechanism of ISG15 in teleost.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 3 (TRAF3) is a multifunctional regulator implicated in both bacterial defense and antiviral immunity. Here, a TRAF3 gene from the seawater fish sea perch, designated as LjTRAF3, was characterized. The full-length cDNA of LjTRAF3 was 2972 bp including a 5' untranslated region (UTR) of 243 bp, a 3'UTR of 941 bp and a putative open reading frame of 1608 bp encoding a putative protein of 536 amino acid. The deduced LjTRAF3 protein contained a RING finger, two zinc fingers, a coiled-coil, and a meprin and TRAF-C homology domain. Phylogenetic analysis showed that LjTRAF3 shared the closest genetic relationship with Larimichthys crocea TRAF3. Gene expression analyses suggested that LjTRAF3 mRNA was ubiquitously expressed in all the tissues tested, and was up-regulated post red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection in vivo and in vitro. Reporter gene assay showed that LjTRAF3 significantly activated zebrafish type I interferon (IFN) promoter in vitro. During RGNNV infection, ectopic expression of LjTRAF3 significantly reduced the RNA dependent RNA polymerase transcription of RGNNV, and enhanced the expression of RIG-I-like receptors (RLR), janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK-STAT) signaling pathway related genes and IFN stimulated genes (ISGs), including ISG15, PKR, VIG and TRIM39. Taken together, our results suggested that LjTRAF3 might trigger the expression of various ISGs to counter RGNNV infection by regulating the RLR-induced IFN and JAK-STAT signaling pathways.

Abstract
Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV) is one of the major causative agents of fish diseases and has caused significant economic losses in the aquaculture industry. There is currently no commercial vaccine or effective antiviral treatment against SGIV infection. Annually, an increasing number of small molecule compounds from various sources have been produced, and many are proved to be potential inhibitors against viruses. Here, a high-throughput in vitro cell viability-based screening assay was developed to identify antiviral compounds against SGIV using the luminescent-based CellTiter-Glo reagent in cultured grouper spleen cells by quantificational measurement of the cytopathic effects induced by SGIV infection. This assay was utilized to screen for potential SGIV inhibitors from five customized compounds which had been reported to be capable of inhibiting other viruses and 30 compounds isolated from various marine organisms, and three of them [ribavirin, harringtonine, and 2-hydroxytetradecanoic acid (2-HOM)] were identified to be effective on inhibiting SGIV infection, which was further confirmed with droplet digital PCR (ddPCR). In addition, the ddPCR results revealed that ribavirin and 2-HOM inhibited SGIV replication and entry in a dose-dependent manner, and harringtonine could reduce SGIV replication rather than entry at the working concentration without significant toxicity. These findings provided an easy and reliable cell viability-based screening assay to identify compounds with anti-SGIV effect and a way of studying the anti-SGIV mechanism of compounds.

Abstract
Porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3) is a newly identified circovirus from swine in the USA, China and Poland. This novel circovirus has been associated with porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS), reproductive failure and multisystemic inflammation; moreover, PCV3 poses a potential threat to the swine industry. In this retrospective study, a phylogenetic analysis was conducted to address the epidemiology and evolutionary dynamics of this novel circovirus. The total positive sample rate of PCV3 was 26.7% (76/285) and has increased gradually over the past 3 years. Of these PCV3-positive samples, 22.3% (17/76) were coinfected with PCV2. PCV3 can be detected in multiple sample types with different positive rates, and the positive rate is highest among stillborn. We also divide PCV3 into three clades (PCV3a, PCV3b and PCV3c) based on two amino acid mutations (A24V and R27K) on the cap protein in this study. In addition, the origin of PCV3 was approximately 1966 and may have originated from a bat-associated circovirus. Our results suggested that PCV3 is widely distributed in southern China and has been circulating in swine herds for nearly half a century. PCV3 has evolved into different clades caused by mutations in cap proteins; thus, further research on PCV3 epidemiology should be conducted.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), functioning as a stress induced protective protein, has been reported to participate in various biological processes, including apoptosis, thermal protection, and virus infection. In this study, a HSP27-like gene from the seawater fish sea perch, designated as LjHSP27, was characterized. The 1361 bp full-length cDNA of LjHSP27 encoded a 221 amino acid protein containing a conserved α-crystallin domain, two variable amino- and carboxy-terminal extensions, a WD/EPF motif, two serine phosphorylation sites, and two putative actin binding regions. Phylogenetic analysis showed that LjHSP27 shared the closest genetic relationship with HSP27 of the Asian seabass Lates calcarifer. LjHSP27 mRNA was ubiquitously expressed in all tissues examined, but significantly up-regulated in spleen and kidney and down-regulated in brain post red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection. In vitro, LjHSP27 transcript was remarkably reduced post RGNNV infection, but rapidly increased after polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid treatment. Up-regulation and down-regulation of LjHSP27 inhibited and promoted RGNNV replication in cultured LJB cells, respectively. Luciferase assay indicated that LjHSP27 could enhance the promoter activities of zebrafish interferon (IFN)1 and IFN3, suggesting its potential role in innate immune responses. Moreover, overexpression of LjHSP27 inhibited RGNNV-induced apoptosis, as indicated by the up-regulation of anti-apoptotic genes and down-regulation of pro-apoptotic genes, while KNK437 caused down-regulation of LjHSP27 dramatically led to opposite results, suggesting that LjHSP27 might exert its anti-RGNNV activities by regulating the apoptosis signaling pathway. Our results would provide a new insight into the underlying molecular mechanism of HSP and RGNNV interaction.

Abstract
Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is a major component in immunological signaling and plays a key role in resisting viral infection. In this study, we identified and characterized an IFN-γ gene (AsIFN-γ) in the marine fish black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii). We cloned AsIFN-γ genomic sequence, which comprises four exons, three introns and an upstream promoter including several conserved regulatory elements. The complete cDNA of AsIFN-γ was 816 bp in length and encoded a putative 194 amino acids (aa) protein with a 22 aa signal peptide, six α-helices and one nuclear localization signal (NLS). Multiple alignment showed that AsIFN-γ protein shared 31-60% identity with IFN-γ of other fish but low identity with fish IFN-γrel and IFN-γ of other vertebrates. AsIFN-γ was constitutively expressed in all examined tissues with the highest expression level in immune organs, such as spleen, gill and kidney. In black seabream infected by red spotted nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV), the expression of AsIFN-γ was significantly up-regulated in most tissues, and RGNNV infection in vitro also induced significant up-regulation of AsIFN-γ, indicating that AsIFN-γ was involved in immune response to RGNNV infection. Overexpression of AsIFN-γ in cultured Acanthopagrus schlegelii brain (AsB) cells rapidly and transiently stimulated the expression of JAK-STAT signaling pathway related genes including STAT1, STAT2 and IRF9, as well as the downstream antiviral genes MX1 and ISG15. Furthermore, overexpression of AsIFN-γ was able to significantly inhibit RGNNV replication and virus production in AsB cells. In summary, we identified a conserved IFN-γ gene of black seabream, and demonstrated the rapid and strong antiviral activities of AsIFN-γ against RGNNV in black seabream.

Abstract
Gametogenesis is a complicated biological process by which sperm and egg are produced for genetic transmission between generations. In many animals, the germline is segregated from the somatic lineage in early embryonic development through the specification of primordial germ cells (PGCs), the precursors of gametes for reproduction and fertility. In some species, such as fruit fly and zebrafish, PGCs are determined by the maternally provided germ plasm which contains various RNAs and proteins. Here, we identified a germ plasm/PGC-specific microRNA miR-202-5p for the first time in zebrafish. MiR-202-5p was specifically expressed in gonad. In female, it was expressed and accumulated in oocytes during oogenesis. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR and whole mount in situ hybridization results indicated that miR-202-5p exhibited a typical germ plasm /PGC-specific expression pattern throughout embryogenesis, which was consistent with that of the PGC marker vasa, indicating that miR-202-5p was a component of germ plasm and a potential PGC marker in zebrafish. Our present study might be served as a foundation for further investigating the regulative roles of miRNAs in germ plasm formation and PGC development in zebrafish and other teleost.

Abstract
RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) can recognize viral RNA and initiate innate antiviral response. In earlier studies, we demonstrated that RLRs were implicated in the antiviral immunity against RGNNV in the seawater fish sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus). However, potential regulators of RLRs-mediated signaling pathways involved in RGNNV infection remain unclear. In this study, a novel ribonucleoprotein PTB-binding 1 (Raver1) of sea perch (LjRAVER1) was identified for the first time. The cDNA of LjRAVER1 was 4066 bp in length and encoded a deduced polypeptide of 733 amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a closer affinity of LjRAVER1 with Larimichthys Crocea Raver1. LjRAVER1 mRNA was constitutively expressed in all 10 sampled tissues, and rapidly and significantly increased in vivo upon RGNNV infection. Time course analysis showed that LjRAVER1 transcripts were significantly increased both in vivo and in vitro after RGNNV infection. Viral infection and poly I:C treatment caused translocation of LjRAVER1 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Ectopic expression of LjRAVER1 increased the transcription level of several RLR signaling pathway related genes inducible by poly I:C treatment in vitro. Moreover, the viral gene transcription and virus production of RGNNV were significantly decreased in LjRAVER1 overexpressing cells. Luciferase reporter assays demonstrated that overexpression of LjRAVER1 significantly increased the promoter activity of zebrafish IFN1. Taken together, these findings indicated that LjRAVER1 might be an important component of RLR signaling pathway and involved in RLR pathway-mediated IFN response in sea perch.

Abstract
The RIG-I-like receptors family is a group of cytosolic RNA helicase proteins that can recognize viral RNA via binding to pathogen associated molecular pattern motifs within RNA ligands. A novel vertebrate RLR counterpart named LjMDA5 was firstly identified from the marine fish sea perch Lateolabrax japonicus in this study. The full-length cDNA of LjMDA5 is 3750 bp and encodes a polypeptide of 988 amino acids, containing two N-terminal tandem caspase activation and recruitment domains, a DExH (Asp-Glu-X-His) box domain, an HELICc domain, and a C-terminal domain RIG-I. Phylogenetic analysis showed that LjMDA5 shared the closest genetic relationship with the MDA5 of Larimichthys crocea. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that LjMDA5 was ubiquitously expressed and up-regulated significantly in all selected tissues in vivo post NNV infection. Time course analysis showed that LjMDA5 transcripts significantly increased in spleen and kidney. We found LjMDA5 could be regulated in the sea perch LJB and LJF cell lines after lipopolysaccharide, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid treatment and NNV challenge. RNA interference experiment indicated that silencing of LjMDA5 significantly increased RGNNV replication and virus production in NNV infected LJF cells. Our results revealed that MDA5 was essential for host defense against NNV, which provided new insights into the function of RLR signaling pathway during NNV infection in fish.

Abstract
The mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS) is vital for host defenses against viral infection by inducing expression of type I interferon. Here, the MAVS of sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus) (LjMAVS) was cloned and analyzed. The complete cDNA sequence of LjMAVS was 3207 bp and encoded a polypeptide of 601 amino acids. LjMAVS contains an N-terminal CARD-like domain, a central proline-rich domain and a C-terminal transmembrane domain. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that LjMAVS exhibited the closest relationship to O. fasciatus MAVS. LjMAVS was ubiquitously expressed in all tested tissues of healthy fish. The expression of LjMAVS was significantly increased post nervous necrosis virus (NNV) infection in vivo in all the selected tissues. Furthermore, time course analysis showed that LjMAVS transcripts significantly increased in the brain, spleen and kidney tissues after NNV infection. LjMAVS mRNA expression was significantly up-regulated in vitro after poly I:C stimulation. The viral gene transcription of RGNNV was significantly decreased in LjMAVS over-expressing LJB cells. These findings provide useful information for further elucidating the function ofLjMAVS in antiviral innate immune against NNV in sea perch.

Abstract
LGP2 (laboratory of genetics and physiology 2) as a key component of the retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs), plays a predominant role in modulating RLRs-mediated cellular antiviral signaling during viral infection. In the present study, we cloned the LGP2 gene from the sea perch (Lateolabrax japonicus) (LjLGP2), an economically important farmed fish. The complete cDNA sequence of LjLGP2 was 2790 nt and encoded a polypeptide of 682 amino acids which contains four main structural domains: one DEAD/DEAH box helicase domain, one conserved restriction domain of bacterial type III restriction enzyme, one helicase superfamily c-terminal domain and one C-terminal domain of RIG-I, similar to most vertebrate LGP2. Subcellular localization analysis showed that LjLGP2 spanned the entire cytosol. The LjLGP2 mRNA was widespread expressed in the tested 10 tissues of healthy fish and significantly up-regulated post NNV infection. Furthermore, time course analysis showed that LjLGP2 transcripts significantly increased in the spleen, kidney and liver tissues after NNV infection. LjLGP2 mRNA expression was rapidly and significantly up-regulated in LJB cells after poly I:C stimulation and NNV infection. The present results suggest that LjLGP2 may be involved in recognization of NNV and play a role in antiviral innate immune against NNV in sea perch.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most underdeveloped countries do not meet core disease outbreak surveillance because of the lack of human resources, laboratory and infrastructural facilities. The use of cell phone technology for disease outbreak syndromic surveillance is a new phenomenon in Sierra Leone despite its successes in other developing countries like Sri Lanka. In this study we set to evaluate the effectiveness of using cell phone technology for Ebola hemorrhagic fever syndromic surveillance in a high risked community in Sierra Leone. OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the effectiveness of using cell phone messaging (text and calls) for community Ebola hemorrhagic fever syndromic surveillance in high risked community in southern Sierra Leone. METHOD All cell phone syndromic surveillance data used for this study was reported as cell phone alert messages-texts and voice calls; by the Moyamba District Health Management Team for both Ebola hemorrhagic fever suspect and mortalities. We conducted a longitudinal data analysis of the monthly cumulative confirmed Ebola hemorrhagic fever cases and mortalities collected by both the traditional sentinel and community cell phone syndromic surveillance from August 2014 to October 2014. RESULTS A total of 129 and 49 Ebola hemorrhagic fever suspect and confirmed cases respectively were recorded using the community Ebola syndromic surveillance cell phone alert system by the Moyamba District Health Management Team in October 2014. The average number of Ebola hemorrhagic fever suspects and confirmed cases for October 2014 were 4.16 (Std.dev 3.76) and 1.58 (Std.dev 1.43) respectively. Thirty-four percent (n=76) of the community Ebola syndromic surveillance cell phone alerts that were followed-up within 24 hours reported Ebola hemorrhagic fever suspect cases while 65.92% (n=147) reported mortality. CONCLUSION Our study suggests some form of underreporting by the traditional sentinel Ebola hemorrhagic fever disease surveillance system in Moyamba District southern Sierra Leone for August-September 2014. Cell phone messaging technology can be effectively use as a tool for community epidemic surveillance from peripheral health care facilities to higher levels.
