RESUMO
Peroxinectin, which has both peroxidase and cell adhesion activities, is crucial for invertebrate innate immune responses. In this study, we first cloned the full-length cDNA of Procambarus clarkii Peroxinectin (denoted as Pc-Px) and evaluated its immune roles. The Pc-Px cDNA had 2460 base pairs (bp) and 819 amino acid residues, including peroxidase domain and a putative integrin-binding motif. Pc-Px tissue expression was found to be ubiquitous in all examined tissues under normal physiological conditions. Pc-Px mRNA levels were highest in hemocytes, followed by gills and heart, and were lowest in the gut. The LPS, PGN, and Poly I:C treatment significantly up-regulated the transcript level of Pc-Px gene, but the expression trends were different after the microbials component treatments. Pc-Px knockdown using double-stranded RNA altered the transcription profiles of various immune-related genes in hepatopancreas of P. clarkii. Taken together, Pc-Px is an important component of immune system that likely to modulate immune function of P. clarkii via regulating immune-associated genes.

Diabetic wounds cannot undergo normal wound healing due to changes in the concentration of hyperglycemia in the body and soon evolve into chronic wounds causing amputation or even death of patients. Diabetic wounds directly affect the quality of patients and social medical management; thus researchers started to focus on skin transplantation technology. The acellular fish skin grafts (AFSGs) are derived from wild fish, which avoids the influence of human immune function and the spread of the virus through low-cost decellularization. AFSGs contain a large amount of collagen and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and they have an amazing effect on wound regeneration. However, after our search in major databases, we found that there were few research trials in this field, and only one was clinically approved. Therefore, we summarized the advantages of AFSGs and listed the problems faced in clinical use. The purpose of this paper is to enable researchers to better carry out original experiments at various stages.
