Identification of an anti-lipopolysaccharide factor AV-R isoform (LvALF AV-R) related to Vp_PirAB-like toxin resistance in Litopenaeus vannamei

Publication date: Available online 4 October 2018Source: Fish & Shellfish ImmunologyAuthor(s): Sasiwipa Tinwongger, Jumroensri Thawonsuwan, Hidehiro Kondo, Ikuo HironoAbstractAcute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) is a shrimp farming disease, caused by the pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus carrying a plasmid encoding Vp_PirAB-like toxins. Formalin-killed cells of V. parahaemolyticus AHPND-causing strain D6 (FKC-VpD6) were used to select Vp_PirAB-like toxin-resistant Litopenaeus vannamei by oral administration. Stomach and hepatopancreas tissues of shrimps that survived for one week were subjected to RNA sequencing. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between surviving shrimp, AHPND-infected shrimp, and normal shrimp were identified. The expressions of 10 DEGs were validated by ...
