Enteromyxosis caused by the intestinal myxozoan parasite Enteromyxum scophthalmi is a serious threat for turbot (Scophthalmus maximus, L.) aquaculture, causing severe catarrhal enteritis leading to cachectic syndrome, with no therapeutic options available. There are still many aspects of host-parasite interaction and disease pathogenesis that yet be elucidated, date, analysis transcriptomic changes induced E. in organs has been conducted. In this study, RNA-seq technology was applied head...

Abstract Zebrafish has become a popular research model in the last years, and several diseases affecting zebrafish facilities have been reported. However, only one case of naturally occurring viral infections was described for this species. In 2015, infectious spleen kidney necrosis virus ( ISKNV ) detected from facility Spain. Affected fish showed lethargy, loss appetite, abnormal swimming, distention coelomic cavity and, most severe cases, respiratory distress, pale gills petechial...

Abstract Background Genomic resources for plant and animal species that are under exploitation primarily human consumption increasingly important, among other things, understanding physiological processes establishing adequate genetic selection programs. Current available techniques high-throughput sequencing have been implemented in a number of species, including fish, to obtain proper description the transcriptome. The objective this study was generate comprehensive transcriptomic database...

Introduction The marine aquaculture industry has been witnessing a worldwide emergence of tenacibaculosis, poorly understood bacterial disease caused by Tenacibaculum maritimum that affects commercially important fish. So far, knowledge on the T. virulence mechanisms is scarce and pathogen-host interaction operating in tenacibaculosis remain to be disclosed. This study aimed at contributing better understanding this disease, evaluating early innate immune response triggered European sea bass...

Summary An ultrastructural study was performed on the gills of juvenile Argentinian silverside, Odontesthes bonariensis . The are composed two sets four holobranchs and, in turn, each holobranch consists a gill arch and rows caudolaterally projecting branchial filaments. From dorsal ventral surfaces filament, lamellae radiate out as foldings epithelial layer. Gill rakers present arches, anteromedial side opposite to rakers, arches filaments covered by stratified epithelium, whereas...

In the last decade, a new parasite that causes severe losses has been detected in farmed turbot Psetta maxima (L.), north-western Spain. The was classified as myxosporean and named Enteromyxum scophthalmi. aim of this study to characterize main histological changes occur E. scophthalmi-infected turbot. provoked catarrhal enteritis, intensity lesions correlated with progression infection development parasite. Infected fish were into 3 groups, according lesional degree they showed (slight,...

We examined the ability of pseudorabies virus (PRV) to induce and suppress apoptosis in trigeminal ganglion during acute infection its natural host. Eight pigs were intranasally inoculated with a virulent field strain PRV, at various early times after inoculation, ganglia assessed histologically. PRV-infected cells detected by use immunohistochemistry situ hybridization, was identified terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling. Light electron microscopy also used...

In this study, several neuropeptides were identified by immunohistochemistry in neuroendocrine cells (NEC) located the gut epithelium and nerve cell bodies of enteric nervous system pejerrey Odontesthes bonariensis, a species that is promising candidate for intensive aquaculture. The involved orexigenic or anorexigenic action, i.e. gastrin, cholecystokinin-8, neuropeptide Y calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), displayed significantly higher number immunoreactive NECs anterior intestine,...

In Venezuela, the restricted manner of works on scorpion envenoming has contributed little to real magnitude and knowledge this subject in our country. The lack basic scorpiofauna knowledge, distribution, clinical manifestations, especially specific treatments justify multidisciplinary studies. purpose these studies is obtain information that allows elaboration a preventive plan. This paper demonstrates envenomings Venezuela.
