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. Exit

Pathogens can be found in various compartments of the body

The Immune System
A body system designed to protect us from pathogens that
attack and try to invade our bodies
1. 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

maximal Lag time between exposure and maximal
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

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.

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

Antimicrobial peptides
ProPO
Pattern recognition protein
Ecapsulation/

Intestinal Immunity
The digestive tract is a
first entry point for
many pathogens
