RESUMO
Aeromonas hydrophila can pose a great threat to the survival of farmed fish. In current study, we investigated the pathological characteristics and immune response in gut-liver axis of white crucian carp (WCC) upon gut infection. WCC anally intubated with A. hydrophila exerted a tissue deformation in damaged midgut with elevated levels of goblet cells along with a significant decrease in tight junction proteins and villi length-to-width ratios. In addition, immune-related gene expressions and antioxidant properties increased dramatically in gut-liver axis of WCC following gut infection with A. hydrophila. These results highlighted the immune modulation and redox alteration in gut-liver axis of WCC in response to gut infection.

A novel A. pittii J08 with heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) isolated from pond sediments could rapidly degrade inorganic nitrogen (N) and total nitrogen (TN-N) with ammonium (NH4+-N) preference. N degradation rate of NH4+-N, nitrite (NO2--N) and nitrate (NO3--N) were 3.9 mgL-1h-1, 3.0 mgL-1h-1 and 2.7 mgL-1h-1, respectively. In addition, strain J08 could effectively utilize most of detected low-molecular-weight carbon (LMWC) sources to degrade inorganic N with a wide adaptability to various culture conditions. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis revealed that assembled genome of stain J08 possessed the crucial genes involved in dissimilatory/assimilatory NO3--N reduction and NH4+-N assimilation. These results indicated that strain J08 could be applied to wastewater treatment in aquaculture.

Edwardsiella tarda is an intracellular pathogenic bacteria that can imperil the health of farmed fish. However, the interactive networks of immune regulation and metabolic response in E. tarda-infected fish are still unclear. In this investigation, we aimed to explore immunometabolic interplay in crucian carp after E. tarda infection by utilizing multiomics analyses. Crucian carp (Carassius auratus) receiving E. tarda infection showed increased levels of tissue damage and oxidative injury in liver. Multiomics analyses suggested that carbon and amino acid metabolism may be considered as crucial metabolic pathways in liver of crucian carp following E. tarda infection, while spaglumic acid, isocitric acid and tetrahydrocortisone were the crucial liver biomarkers. After that, a potential antimicrobial peptide (AMP) sequence called apolipoprotein D (ApoD) was identified from omics study. Then, tissue-specific analysis indicated that liver CaApoD showed the highest expression among isolated tissues. After Aeromonas hydrophila stimulated, CaApoD expressions increased sharply in immune-related tissues. Moreover, CaApoD fusion protein could mediate the in vitro binding to A. hydrophila and E. tarda, attenuate bacterial growth as well as diminish bacterial biofilm forming activity. These findings may have a comprehensive implication for understanding immunometabolic response in crucian carp upon infection.
RESUMO
Aeromonas veronii is one of the predominant pathogenic species that can imperil the survival of farmed fish. However, the interactive networks of immune regulation and metabolic response in A. veronii-infected fish are still unclear. In this investigation, we aimed to explore immunometabolic interplay in white crucian carp (WCC) after the A. veronii challenge. Elevated levels of immune-related genes were observed in various tissues after A. veronii infection, along with the sharp alteration of disease-related enzymatic activities. Besides, decreased levels of antioxidant status were observed in the liver, but most metabolic gene expressions increased dramatically. Multiomics analyses revealed that metabolic products of amino acids, such as formiminoglutamic acid (FIGLU), L-glutamate (L-Glu), and 4-hydroxyhippuric acid, were considered the crucial liver biomarkers in A. veronii-infected WCC. In addition, A. veronii infection may dysregulate endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function to affect the metabolic process of lipids, carbohydrates, and amino acids in the liver of WCC. These results may have a comprehensive implication for understanding immunometabolic response in WCC upon A. veronii infection.
