Project description:We established a bacteria infective intestinal inflammation in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus). And found that β-glucan could significantly alleviate the phenotype of turbot intestinal inflammation. We performed single cell transcriptome analysis to study bacteria infective intestinal inflammation and the effects of β-glucan. Furthermore, we revealed that β-glucan through activates Th17 cells to alleviate intestinal inflammation in turbot.
Project description:We establish a trained immunity activation model in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) by training with β-glucan in vivo. Through single cell RNA-sequencing analysis, we annotate 16 clusters of immune cells and blood cells from head kidney and spleen, and successfully characterize that neutrophils exhibit distinguished feature of trained immunity.
Project description:The process of producing the GRC zebrafish assembly included the high-quality sequencing and finishing of clones representing alternate haplotypes to corresponding regions in the current primary assembly. This project reports the variation between those alternate haplotype clones and the primary assembly.
Project description:With the aim of shedding light on the protection conferred by the DNA vaccines based in the G glycoprotein of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV) in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) we have used a specific microarray highly enriched in antiviral sequences to carry out the transcriptomic study associated to VHSV DNA vaccination/infection. The differential gene expression pattern in response to empty plasmid (pMCV1.4) and DNA vaccine (pMCV1.4-G860) intramuscular administration with regard to non-stimulated turbot was analyzed in head kidney at 8, 24 and 72 hours post-vaccination. Moreover, the effect of VHSV infection one month after immunization was also analyzed in vaccinated and non-vaccinated fish at the same time points.
