Performance of WSSV-infected and WSSV-negative Penaeus monodon postlarvae in culture ponds [PDF]
In a survey of 27 Penaeus monodon culture ponds stocked with postlarvae (approximately PL10) at medium density (approximately 40 shrimp m(-2)), single-step nested white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) PCR was used to measure the WSSV infection rates in the shrimp populations within 1 mo after stocking. Seven ponds were initially WSSV-free, and the shrimp in

WSSV infection activates STAT in shrimp [PDF]
Although the JAK/STAT signaling pathway is usually involved in antiviral defense, a recent study suggested that STAT might be annexed by WSSV (white spot syndrome virus) to enhance the expression of a viral immediate early gene in infected shrimps. In the present study, we clone and report the first full-length cDNA sequence for a crustacean STAT from ...

Penaeus monodon GILT enzyme restricts WSSV infectivity by reducing disulfide bonds in WSSV proteins [PDF]
Gamma-interferon-inducible lysosomal thiol reductase (GILT) is involved in the adaptive immune response via its effects on major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted antigen presentation. In addition to antigen presentation, GILT exerts its antiviral activity by reducing disulfide bonds in proteins involved in viral infection and assembly ...

Expression Profiling of WSSV ORF 199 and Shrimp Ubiquitin Conjugating Enzyme in WSSV Infected Penaeus monodon [PDF]
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is one of the major viral pathogens affecting shrimp aquaculture. Four proteins, WSSV199, WSSV 222, WSSV 249 and WSSV 403, from WSSV are predicted to encode a RING-H2 domain, which in presence of ubiquitin conjugating enzyme (E2) in shrimp can function as viral E3 ligase and modulate the host ubiquitin proteasome ...

miR-9875 functions in antiviral immunity by targeting PDCD6 in mud crab (Scylla paramamosain)
Programmed cell death 6 (PDCD6) is a well-known apoptosis regulator that is involved in the immunity of mammals. However, the effects of miRNA-mediated regulation of PDCD6 expression on apoptosis and virus infection in organisms, especially in marine ...

Scavenger Receptor C Mediates Phagocytosis of White Spot Syndrome Virus and Restricts Virus Proliferation in Shrimp. [PDF]
Scavenger receptors are an important class of pattern recognition receptors that play several important roles in host defense against pathogens. The class C scavenger receptors (SRCs) have only been identified in a few invertebrates, and their role in ...

A VP24-truncated isolate of white spot syndrome virus is inefficient in per os infection
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a major pathogen of penaeid shrimp. Here we identified a new WSSV strain, WSSV-CN04, from naturally infected Marsupenaeus japonicus. Whole genomic sequencing results indicate that the WSSV-CN04 genome was 281 054 bp in

Protection against white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection in kuruma shrimp orally vaccinated with WSSV rVP26 and rVP28 [PDF]
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is the causative agent of white spot disease (WSD), one of the most serious diseases affecting global shrimp farming. We compared WSSV infection induction in kuruma shrimp Marsupenaeus japonicus by oral, immersion, and intramuscular injection (IM) exposure methods and evaluated the oral vaccine prepared from the ...

Laminin Receptor in Shrimp Is a Cellular Attachment Receptor for White Spot Syndrome Virus. [PDF]
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV, genus Whispovirus, family Nimaviridae) is causing huge economic losses in global shrimp farming, but there is no effective control. Shrimp cell laminin receptor (Lamr) may have a role in WSSV infection.

β-integrin mediates WSSV infection
White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) is a virulent and widespread dsDNA virus with a wide range of hosts. Although remarkable progress has been made on virus characterization, however, its mechanism of infection is poorly understood. In this study, by analyzing the phage display library of the WSSV genome, a WSSV envelope protein VP187 (wsv209) was found ...
