<i>Background:</i> Consumption of seafood can produce allergic symptoms in susceptible individuals and crustacean allergies are the most frequently reported causes reactions. <i>Methods:</i> An allergen from muscle white shrimp <i>Litopenaeus vannamei</i> was purified by ion exchange chromatography identified mass spectrometry tryptic peptides its specific enzymatic activity. Moreover, corresponding full-length cDNA obtained an <i>L. library....
Litopenaeus vannamei do not have an adaptive immune response system. White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is the most severe pathogen in shrimps. Bacillus subtilis spores carrying heterologous antigens on its surface been evaluated as a vaccine inducing specific systemic responses vertebrates. Orally administrated Vp28 vaccines investigated crustaceans. Vp26 also important constituent of WSSV structure but little known about oral vaccination capacity L. vannamei.In this study, for first time,...
Due to global warming, world water bodies have higher temperatures and lower oxygen concentrations that affect aquatic species including the white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. This withstands these conditions, but information of physiological responses allow them survive are scarce. We analyzed effects high temperature, hypoxia, reoxygenation, combination factors on relative expression selected genes: HSF1, Hsp70, p53, TIGAR, HIF-1α, VEGF1–3 in gills L. Additionally, glucose, lactate, NADP,...
