“…This upregulation was significant due to the pro and anti-inflammatory mechanisms, aquatic animals balanced the immune response for better defence against stress and infection 56 . Though the presence of cytokine family genes in crustacean tissue including crayfish are evident 41,[75][76][77][78][79] , however, their role have not been studied yet. Hence, further transcriptomic analysis of mRNA is recommended to identify the expressed genes under cytokine family and its level of expression in the intestinal tissue of marron.…”

This study aimed to investigate the combined effects of two most potent probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus plantarum on overall health and immune status of freshwater crayfish, marron under laboratory conditions. A total of 36 marron were distributed into six different tanks and two different feeding groups, control and probiotic-fed group. After acclimation, control group was fed with basal diet while probiotic group was fed 10 9 cfU/mL per kg of bacterial supplemented feed for 60 days. The results showed no significant differences in weight gain, however, probiotic feed significantly enhanced some hemolymph parameters and biochemical composition of tail muscle. Histology data revealed better hepatopancreas health and higher microvilli counts in the marron gut fed probiotic diet. The probiotic bacteria triggered significant shift of microbial communities at different taxa level, mostly those reported as beneficial for crayfish. The probiotic diet also enriched the metabolic functions and genes associated with innate immune response of crayfish. Further correlation analysis revealed significant association of some taxa with increased activity for hemolymph and immune genes. therefore, dietary Lactobacillus supplementation can modulate the overall health and immunity as well as gut microbial composition and interaction network between gut microbiota and immune system in crayfish. Aquaculture has become an important food sector for meeting the overall protein demand for growing population. The global consumption of crustaceans has increased greatly and especially those with live transport abilities are increasingly becoming popular 1-3. Marron (Cherax cainni) is one of the largest freshwater crayfish farmed in Western Australia (WA) that has high nutritive value and widespread consumer preferences 4,5. In addition, long distance live transportation ability of marron further increases its international demand, and thus has become an ideal crayfish species for commercial farming 6,7. However, the production of marron in WA has remained stagnant for a long time 7. Selection of proper diets and maintaining the optimum water quality are the two most crucial factors required for marron farming 5,7. Although no disease outbreaks have yet been reported, the interest and intend of intensification in marron farming can expose marron to possible crayfish pathogens including Vibrio, Aeromonas and Rhodobacter 5,6. In the past, several laboratory based trials have been conducted 3,6-9 , however, finding a suitable diet and identifying the beneficial bacteria that potentially can influence the growth and immune performance of marron has still remained unknown. Towards sustainable development of aquaculture, the use of feed additives including probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, parabiotics and phytogenics in crustacean's diet to boost biological indices has gained extensive attention from the researchers and farmers. Probiotics are microorganisms associated with health and immune benefits for the host ...

“…Several previous studies have demonstrated that IL‐16 and IL‐17 could be stimulated by poly I:C and LPS (Du, Feng, et al., ; Du, Qin, et al., ; Korenaga et al., ; Liang et al., ; Monte, Wang, Holland, Zou, & Secombes, ; Wang et al., , , ). Thus, we examined the transcript levels of these genes in vitro using primary spleen leukocytes.…”

“…Dabry's sturgeon pro‐IL‐16 contains four putative PDZ domains (Figure ), which was conserved among different species. However, the IL‐16‐like of pacific white shrimp possessed two PDZ domain (Liang et al., ), that may suggested that the function of IL‐16 is different among teleost fish and crustaceans. Dabry's sturgeon pro‐IL‐16 did not contain N‐terminal signal peptide, while IL‐17D possesses signal peptides (1–25 aa) which is similar with grass carp IL‐17D (Du et al., ).…”

“…Dabry's sturgeon IL‐16 was significantly upregulated from 12 to 48 hr, and reached its highest expression level at 12 hr when treated with LPS (Figure a). In comparison, the level of Litopenaeus vannamei IL‐16 ( LvIL‐16 ) mRNA was increased at 4, 12, and 24 hr post injection of LPS, with its highest level at 4 hr (Liang et al., ). This difference might suggest that the primary cells should adapt to a new environment in which the cell line should not be.…”

Identification ofinterleukin‐16(IL‐16) andinterleukin‐17D(IL‐17D) genes from Dabry's sturgeon (Acipenser dabryanus)

et al. 2018

Dabry's sturgeon (Acipenser dabryanus) represents an ancient Actinopterygian lineage that are termed “living fossils”. Many diseases have been found in Dabry's sturgeon. In the present study, genes encoding interleukin (IL)‐16 and IL‐17D in Dabry's sturgeon were identified by RNA‐sequencing. Phylogenetic tree analysis suggested that they clustered together with the corresponding pro‐IL‐16 proteins and IL‐17D proteins from other fish. Sequence analysis revealed that IL‐17D protein was more conserved than pro‐IL‐16. Dabry's sturgeon pro‐IL‐16 contains four putative PDZ domains and do not include signal peptides, while IL‐17D only possesses signal peptides (1–25 aa). The expression patterns of IL‐16 and IL‐17D genes were investigated in Dabry's sturgeon to reveal their functions in disease. The expression level of IL‐16 showed no significant changes in embryos; however, the high expression level of IL‐17D at 0–14 hpf (hours post fertilization) implied the existence of maternal expression in the oocyte and an association with embryonic development. Tissue distribution analysis revealed that IL‐16 and IL‐17D proteins have potential functions in immune and non‐immune tissue compartments. IL‐16 and IL‐17D had different fold changes in primary spleen leukocytes after polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration, which suggested that IL‐16 has a stronger antiviral capability compared with its antibacterial response, and IL‐17D has a stronger antibacterial capability compared with its antiviral response. IL‐16 showed an earlier response to virus compared with IL‐17D, and IL‐17D showed earlier and shorter response to bacteria compared with IL‐16. Our findings suggested the roles of IL‐16 and IL‐17D in Dabry's sturgeon, and provided the theoretical basis for the prevention and control of diseases of Dabry's sturgeon.

“…The TNF members have been identified in Marsupenaeus japonicus, Litopenaeus vannamei, and Macrobrachium nipponense (Mekata et al, 2010;Wang et al, 2012;Qin et al, 2019). The interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase-1 and interleukin-16-like gene were characterized in Fenneropenaeus penicillatus and Litopenaeus vannamei (Liang et al, 2017;Xu et al, 2017). The interferon regulatory factor was also identified in Litopenaeus vannamei (Li et al, 2015).…”

The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of fish oil replacement by vegetable oils on growth performance, histology, and antioxidant capacity of Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Three isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets were formulated with different lipid sources included. DFO diet contained 6% fish oil, whereas DSO and DRO diets included 6% soybean oil and rapeseed oil (RO) as alternatives for fish oil, respectively. Prawns were fed thrice daily for 8 weeks. The results showed that prawns in DFO group showed significantly lower final weight, weight gain ratio, and specific growth rate (SGR), but higher feed intake and feed coefficient ratio than those in DSO and DRO groups. In hepatocellular ultrastructure, malformed and atrophic nucleus and higher apoptosis ratio were observed in DFO group. In addition, levels of haemolymph proinflammatory cytokines, activities of anti-superoxide anion, inducible-type NO-synthase (iNOS) and content of nitric oxide, and hepatopancreas NF-κB signal pathway gene expression in DFO group increased markedly compared to those of DSO and DRO groups. The results suggested that vegetable oils, such as soybean oil and RO might be the better lipid sources in diets for Macrobrachium rosenbergii than fish oil, it may be attributed to modified oxidative status induced by NF-κB-NO signal pathway.
