ABSTRACT
Bacterial LPS is a heat-stable endotoxin and wall components of gram negative bacteria, which can exhibit a toxicological effect on physiology and biochemical activities of fish. In this study, we investigated the effect of LPS exposure on cell viability, oxidative stress, caspase activity and immune-related gene expressions in cultured fin cell lines of red crucian carp, white crucian carp and their hybrid offspring. LPS stimulation could reduce fish cell viability, whereas gene expression levels and promoter activities in inflammatory signals increased dramatically. Moreover, enhanced levels of intracellular oxidative stress and decreased levels of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were observed in LPS-induced fish cells. N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) could alleviate LPS-stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and caspase-3 activity in fish cells. These results suggested that ROS-mediated cytotoxic stress was involved in LPS-induced inflammation and mitochondrial damage in cultured fish cells.
