Abstract

Vaccination is a practical step in preventing diseases caused by koi herpes virus (KHV) in koi fish (Cyprinus carpio haematopterus). We have developed two DNA vaccines for KHV named as GP-25 and GP-11 from two local isolates coded as ORF25 and ORF81, respectively. Although both vaccines have been reported to increase survival rates, the evaluation of koi fish immune responses at the molecular level has not been done post-vaccinations. The aim of this research was to determine the effects of koi herpesvirus DNA vaccine on the immune-modulation of koi fish at mRNA level. This recent research used the best vaccine doses of both vaccines determined from our previous study: 7.5 and 12.5 µg per 100 g fish of GP-11, and 12.5 µg per 100 g fish of GP-25. The immune gene expression was analyzed using the RT-qPCR method from the fish liver at 0, 1, 7, 14, and 28 days post-vaccination (dpv). The results showed that, in the vaccinated fish, the immune genes viz. tumor necrosis factor a (TNFa), interleukin-1b (IL1b), interferon-g (IFNg), Mx1, immunoglobulin Mu chain (IgM), and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and class II were induced to significant extents. The higher dose vaccination using the GP-11 vaccine showed higher immune gene expression than that of the lower dose. Furthermore, the GP-25 vaccine had induced lower immune responses than the GP-11 vaccine when using the same dose of vaccination, but relatively the same when the half-dose of GP-11 vaccine was used. In conclusion, the GP-11 and GP-25 vaccine provided the immune-modulatory effects on the koi fish immune response after vaccination.

Abstract

Highlight ResearchThe F2 of GH-transgenic B. imbellis was successfully producedThe transgene inheritance by the F2 fish was more than 90%The growth and body size of transgenic fish was significantly higher than controlF2 fish reached a larger body size in a shorter period compared to the F1 AbstractIn our previous research, we had successfully produced G0 and G1 Pangasianodon hypophthalmus growth hormone (PhGH) transgenic B. imbellis, native ornamental betta from Indonesia, which its giant-sized variant has valuable price for the breeders. The G0 and G1 transgenic (TG) fish showed higher growth rate and body size compared to the non-transgenic (NT) fish. The study was aimed to produce and evaluate the consistencies of transgene transmission and expression in G2 generation. The growth rate and body size between TG and NT fish was also compared. The G2 generation was produced using crosses between TG and NT G1 fish: ♂TG í— â™€TG, ♂TG í— â™€NT, ♂NT í— â™€TG, and ♂NT í—♀ NT. Fish were reared for 12 weeks, and transgene detection was performed using the polymerase chain reaction method (PCR) on isolated DNA from the caudal fin clips. The endogenous and exogenous GH expression analysis was conducted using the quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) method. The results showed that the inheritance of the GH transgene by the G2 fish was more than 90% in all transgenic crosses. Endogenous GH was expressed at the same levels in the brain of TG and NT fish, but the exogenous GH expression was highly detected only in the TG fish. The G2 transgenic fish had a higher specific growth rate, up to 31%, compared to the control. The body length of TG crosses were 23−35% higher and had 111−135% higher body weight compared to NT fish. These results showed a promising approached in mass-producing stable lines of giant-sized betta using the GH-transgenic technology.
