Salmonids have an extraordinary complex type I IFN system: characterization of the IFN locus in rainbow trout oncorhynchus mykiss reveals two novel IFN subgroups.

چکیده
Fish type I IFNs are classified into two groups with two (group I) or four (group II) cysteines in the mature peptide and can be further divided into four subgroups, termed IFN-a, -b, -c, and -d. Salmonids possess all four subgroups, whereas other teleost species have one or more but not all groups. In this study, we have discovered two further subgroups (IFN-e and -f) in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss and analyzed the expression of all six subgroups in rainbow trout and brown trout Salmo trutta. In rainbow trout RTG-2 and RTS-11 cells, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid stimulation resulted in early activation of IFN-d, whereas the IFN-e subgroup containing the highest number of members showed weak induction. In contrast with the cell lines, remarkable induction of IFN-a, -b, and -c was detected in primary head kidney leukocytes after polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid treatment, whereas a moderate increase of IFNs was observed after stimulation with resiquimod. Infection of brown trout with hemorrhagic septicemia virus resulted in early induction of IFN-d, -e, and -f and a marked increase of IFN-b and IFN-c expression in kidney and spleen. IFN transcripts were found to be strongly correlated with the viral burden and with marker genes of the IFN antiviral cascade. The results demonstrate that the IFN system of salmonids is far more complex than previously realized, and in-depth research is required to fully understand its regulation and function.

Identification of a second group of type I IFNs in fish sheds light on IFN evolution in vertebrates.
In this report, three type I IFN genes were identified in rainbow trout (rt) Oncorhynchus mykiss and are classified into two groups based on their primary protein sequences: group I containing two cysteine residues; and group II containing four cysteines residues. The group I rtIFNs were induced in fibroblasts (RTG-2 cells), macrophages (RTS-11 cells), and head kidney leukocytes when stimulated...
متن کاملBio-functions of carvacrol-supplemented feeds on lipopolysaccharide-induced rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792)
To investigate the effects of carvacrol supplementation in rainbow trout induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), relative gene expressions levels of some pro-inflammatory cytokines and apoptosis markers in kidney and liver were measured. Fish with a mean weight of 44.71±1.33 g were studied using four different treatments with three replicates each. Inflammation and apoptosis were performed using L...

To investigate the effects of carvacrol supplementation diets in rainbow trout induced by LPS, we measured gene expressions relative to pro-inflammatory and apoptosis in kidney and liver. Fish, which that were studied by four different treatments with three replicates each, was 44.71±1.33 gr. All fish were infected with E. coli LPS (25 µg ml-1) expect control and only carvacrol containing diet ...
