“…Histological examinations were performed as described previously [ 23 ]; tissues from the fish were dissected, fixed in neutral buffered formalin for 24 h, washed with Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline (DPBS, Sigma, New York, NY, USA), dehydrated with 30% sucrose/DPBS, and embedded in optimum cutting temperature compound (OCT). Eight micrometer sections of all tissue specimens were made using a cryostat (CM1950, Leica, Nussloch, Germany).…”

“…The gills of the diseased fish exhibited an extensive fusion of the adjacent lamellae and clear collapse and necrosis (Figure 2D). Thus, the diseased crucian carp exhibited symptoms characteristic of goldfish haematopoietic necrosis virus disease [6,23,27]. Transmission electron microscopy images of kidney cells from naturally diseased crucian carp (Figure 3) showed numerous 150 to 250 nm spherical virions present across the entire cell.…”

Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2), a member of the Alloherpesviridae family belonging to the genus Cyprinivirus, is a fatal contagious aquatic pathogen that affects goldfish (Carassius auratus) and crucian carp (Carassius carassius). Although crucian carp and goldfish belong to the genus Carassius, it is unclear whether they are susceptible to the same CyHV-2 isolate. In addition, the origin of the crucian carp-derived CyHV-2 virus isolate remains unclear. CyHV-2 SH01 was isolated during herpesviral hematopoietic necrosis disease (HVHN) outbreaks in crucian carp at a local fish farm near Shanghai. CyHV-2 SH01 was confirmed by PCR and Western blot analysis of kidney, spleen, muscle, and blood tissue from the diseased crucian carp. Moreover, histopathological and ultra-pathological analyses revealed pathological changes characteristic of CyHV-2 SH01 infection in the tissues of the diseased crucian carp. In the present study, goldfish and crucian carp were challenged with CyHV-2 SH01 to elucidate viral virulence. We found that CyHV-2 SH01 could cause rapid and fatal disease progression in goldfish and crucian carp 24 h post-injection at 28 °C. Experimental infection of goldfish by injection indicated that the average virus titer in the kidney of the goldfish was 103.47 to 103.59 copies/mg. In addition, tissues exhibited the most prominent histopathological changes (cellular wrinkling and shrinkage, cytoplasmic vacuolation, fusion of the gill lamellae, and hepatic congestion) in CyHV-2 SH01-infected goldfish and crucian carp. Thus, crucian carp and goldfish showed a high sensitivity, with typical symptoms, to HVHN disease caused by CyHV-2 SH01.

“…Although infection-initiated oxidative stress plays a key role in the activation of innate immunity to fight off pathogenic microbes, a number of viruses were shown to induce oxidative stress on purpose to facilitate their replication inside the cell, which at least included influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), human metapneumovirus (hMPV), dengue virus (DENV), rotavirus, herpes simplex virus, Zika virus, and HIV (McCord et al, 2020). CyHV-2 infection in crucian carp remains a challenge for the aquaculture section worldwide, and the lack of vaccine or medicine in the field urgently required the development of a novel antiviral strategy (Su et al, 2021). Nrf2 and its principal negative regulator Keap1 play a central role in the maintenance of intracellular redox homeostasis and regulation of inflammation.…”

“…For example, the upregulation of intracellular ROS during the early phase of retroviral infection plays an important role in viral establishment in the host cell, and the treatment of apocynin, an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, could decrease viral titer in the mouse brain and increase the lifespan of infected mice (Kim and Wong, 2013). Recently, we reported that BBR could systematically impede CyHV-2 replication and protect crucian carp from CyHV-2 challenge in a dose-dependent manner (Su et al, 2021). However, it is not clear whether BBR-mediated modulation of ROS signaling involves the anti-CyHV-2 activity of BBR.…”

Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2) has caused great economic loss to the crucian carp breeding industry. Upon viral stimulation, eukaryotic cells generally activate the expression of anti-oxidative genes to maintain the intracellular oxidative balance and resist viral infection. Here, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in CyHV-2-infected cells were monitored to show that CyHV-2 induced the increase of intracellular ROS during early infection, and intracellular excessive accumulation of ROS was ameliorated during late infection, which was accompanied by activated expression of genes related to Nrf2 signaling pathway. In order to explore the interaction between CyHV-2 infection and ROS production, RyuF-2 cells were treated with either antioxidant epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) or berberine hydrochloride (BBH) and then infected with CyHV-2. Both BBH and EGCG could effectively inhibit the amplification of CyHV-2 while inhibiting the accumulation of intracellular ROS. Consistent with this, the oxidant stress-related genes were up-regulated by CyHV-2 infection and down-regulated in cells treated with either BBH or EGCG, through which the production of intracellular ROS was modulated. These results collectively demonstrated that early ROS accumulation favored the replication of CyHV-2, while antioxidants (BBH and EGCG) could inhibit the amplification of CyHV-2 by inhibiting ROS induction.

Although berberine (BBR) is well known as a traditional medicine used in treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, its potent against viral gastroenteritis has not been specifically reported. This study aims to investigate the antiviral activity of BBR against rotavirus and evaluate its cytotoxicity and pharmacological efficacies, including antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory activities in vitro. Using ultraviolet‐visible absorption spectroscopy, the saturation concentration of BBR was determined as 2261 µg/mL, indicating that BBR is a poor water‐soluble compound. The inhibition rate of NO production of BBR solution at a concentration of 238 µg/mL was similar to that of Cardamonin 0.3 µM with a cell viability of 92,46±0.35%, revealing the anti‐inflammatory activity of BBR. The cytotoxicity of BBR solution depended on its concentration, whereby the 50% cytotoxicity concentration (CC50) of BBR after 96 h exposure was 664 µg/mL. Investigation of cytopathic effects (CPE) of MA104 cells treated with BBR and BBR‐incubated rotavirus indicates that BBR could effectively inhibit the replication of rotavirus. CPEs were not observed in the cells inoculated with rotavirus (100TCID50) which was pre‐incubated with BBR for 96 hours at BBR concentration of 283 µg/mL. Therefore, the study provides reliable results to demonstrate the ability of BBR to inhibit the replication of rotavirus.
