Journal ArticleDOI

RNA-seq analysis of mucosal immune responses reveals signatures of intestinal barrier disruption and pathogen entry following Edwardsiella ictaluri infection in channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus.

TL;DR: The results set a foundation for future studies comparing mechanisms of pathogen entry and mucosal immunity across several important catfish pathogens including E. ictaluri, Edwardsiellatarda, Flavobacterium columnare, and virulent atypical Aeromonas hydrophila.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression analysis of the acute phase response in channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) after infection with a Gram-negative bacterium.

TL;DR: A new high-density in situ oligonucleotide microarray evaluation of the acute phase response in channel catfish liver following infection with Edwardsiella ictaluri revealed a well-developed APR in catfish, with particularly high upregulation of genes involved in iron homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Epidemiology of Bacterial Diseases in Food-Size Channel Catfish

TL;DR: Three possible risk factors associated with ESC/columnaris are identified, namely, operation size, stocking density, and feeding rate, which generate hypotheses about managerial and environmental interactions that represent substantial risks to production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microarray analysis of gene expression in the blue catfish liver reveals early activation of the MHC class I pathway after infection with Edwardsiella ictaluri.

TL;DR: A 28K in situ oligonucleotide microarray composed of blue catfish and channel catfish transcripts is developed and utilized to provide a solid foundation for future functional characterization, genetic mapping, and QTL analysis of immunity-related genes from catfish.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary supplementation with Bacillus subtilis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aspergillus oryzae enhance immunity and disease resistance against Aeromonas hydrophila and Streptococcus iniae infection in juvenile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus

TL;DR: The present study demonstrated the potential of B. subtilis, S. cerevisiae and A. oryzae combined as beneficial dietary probiotic in juvenile O. niloticus, which may exhibit up-regulating effects on tilapia immune parameters.
