The shrimp defense mechanism: simple but efficient Pikul Jiravanichpaisal Germs are everywhere Infectious disease process Dose 1. Entry the host- getting in 2. Establishment- staying in 3. Avoid, evade, or compromise the host defense- defeat the host defenses 4. Damage the host 5.

Innate, natural or non-specific immunity 2. Acquired, adaptive or specific immunity Innate immune system Adaptive immune system Response is non-specific Exposure leads to Pathogen and antigen specific response immediate maximal Lag time between exposure and maximal response response Cell-mediated and humoral components Cell-mediated and humoral components No immunological memory Exposure leads to immunological memory Found in nearly all forms of life Found only in jawed vertebrates Germ-line coded Gene rearrangement More than 95% of all known species belongs to the invertebrates! Invertebrates rely solely on innate immunity Blood circulatory system Vertebrates Closed circulation Invertebrates Open circulation Blood: bloodplasma + red & white blood cells Hemolymph: plasma + hemocytes Shrimp haemocytes Text Hyaline cells Semigranular cell Granular cell How do shrimp defend themselves? First line of defense Optimal goal: Prevent microorganisms from gaining access - The exoskeleton or cuticle - layer of non-cellular material - thin, but tough and flexible, - cover the whole external body surface, stomach and hindgut and reproductive ducts Function: - To limit the entry or loss of water - Form an efficient barrier protecting against invasion by eukaryotic parasites and infection by microorganisms. Structure and formation of cuticle of shrimp the Shell/cuticle/skin Epicuticle Exocuticle Endocuticle The inner-most layer Epidermal cell Shrimp gut Physical and biochemical barrier Shrimp cuticle Shrimp stomach The immune role of the shrimp cuticle -Physical component of the cuticle defense -Biochemical component of the cuticle defense -Mounting as a component of cuticle defense Most pathogens aiming to colonize the haemocoel The last line of defense or haemocoelic internal defense Optimal goal: Neutralized and destroy invaders Complex network of cellular and humoral responses that work together to protect the body Clotting protein Phagocytosis Antiviral defense Antimicrobial peptides ProPO Pattern recognition protein Ecapsulation/ nodule formation Lectins Haemocoelic internal defense Staphylococcus aureus - injected crayfish E. Coli - injected crayfish a b c d Aeromonas hydrophila - injected crayfish a b c d Normal saline - injected crayfish a b c d Intestinal Immunity The digestive tract is a first entry point for many pathogens AHPND/Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS) Vibriosis Enterocytozoon Gregarines White Feces Syndrome 28 Aqua Biz and www.
