Outline of Final Research Achievements |
After vaccination with DNA vaccine and recombinant vaccine against VP-28 protein of white spot syndrome virus, we found that the anti-bacterial peptide genes, eg. crustine, lysozyme and penaeidine genes, can be used for bio-indicators for “quasi-immunity” in kuruma shrimp (Marsupenaeus japonicus). Cytokines are known to play important roles in the mechanism for vaccine efficiency in mammals. However, little is known about them in shrimp. We found over 20 cytokine genes in kuruma shrimp. The group IL-17 and related receptor genes were found. During WSSV infection, Dicer 2 and Argonaute 2 genes showed high expression in the early stage of the infection (from 12 hours post infection). This indicates the degradation of the foreign genes by these factors is a defense system in shrimp against virus. However, during the later stage, the SOCS gene was activated and suppressed the JAK/STAT pathway, another anti-virus defense system, resulting in massive growth of virus.
