Cellular immune responses consist of innate and adaptive cell-mediated immune
mechanisms, where all leukocyte subpopulations are included. Among these are vital …

Background Both bacterial and viral diseases are a major threat to farmed fish. As the
antiviral immune mechanisms in lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) are poorly understood …

Edwardsiella ictaluri is a highly destructive pathogen in cultured yellow catfish, thus it was
very necessary to study the immune response of yellow catfish against bacterial infection. In …

The family of TIR domain-containing receptors includes numerous proteins involved in
innate immunity. In this study, a member of this family was characterized from the ovary of …

Apoptosis is the autonomous and orderly death of cells under genetic control to maintain the
stability of the internal environment, and is a programmed cell death process with unique …

In this chapter the cytokine molecules and pathways present in teleost fish are described,
with a focus on the different types of immunity with which they are associated. Whilst there …

The recent development of single cell sequencing technologies has revolutionized the state-
of-art of cell biology, allowing the simultaneous measurement of thousands of genes in …

Leopard coral grouper (Plectropomus leopardus) is one of the most important cultured fish in
the Pacific and Indian oceans. Vibrio harveyi is a serious pathogen causing serious skin …

The environmental conditions and isolation in the Antarctic have driven the evolution of a
unique biodiversity at a macro to microorganism scale. Here, we investigated the possible …

Members of the myxovirus resistance (Mx) protein family play an essential role in antiviral
immunity. They are Dynamin-like GTPases, induced by interferons. In the current study, we …
