• Early proinflammatory cytokine gene expression induced by megalocytivirus in rock bream was studied.
• Normally expected immune gene expression by LPS and polyI:C in head kidney and spleen.
• Down-regulated proinflammatory gene expressions by RBIV infection in head kidney and spleen cells in vitro.
• Differential proinflammatory gene expression in brain, head kidney, spleen, gill, heart and liver.
• Antiviral gene expressions were down-regulated by RBIV infection in vitro and in vivo.
Early induction of proinflammatory cytokines is known to regulate the later immune responses to inhibit the progress of infectious diseases. In this study, proinflammatory cytokine gene expression has been studied in immune tissues to understand the early immune response induced by megalocytivirus in rock bream (Oplegnathus faciatus). For this, we have cloned interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-8 gene and performed the phylogenetic and structural analysis. Also the constitutive gene expressions of IL-1β and IL-8 were assessed in 12 organs and found to be the highest expression in tail fin and liver, respectively. The expressions of proinflammatory cytokine genes including IL-1β, IL-8, TNFα and Cox-2, and antiviral genes like Mx and IFN1 were analysed by stimulation with PAMPs and RBIV infection. In vitro study showed the highly up-regulated proinflammatory gene expressions in head kidney and the moderate up-regulation in spleen by LPS. Same concentration of polyI:C moderately upregulated IL-1β gene expression in head kidney but down-regulated IL-8 and TNFα gene expression in head kidney and spleen at 8 h. Mx and IFN1 gene expressions were highly upregulated by polyI:C in head kidney and spleen cells in vitro. By RBIV infection, proinflammatory gene expressions were initially up-regulated and later down-regulated in head kidney. In spleen, although mostly not significant, proinflammatory cytokine gene expressions were down-regulated by RBIV infection except up-regulation of Cox-2 gene expression by low concentration of RBIV at 24 h. Mx and IFN1 gene expressions were down-regulated by high dose of RBIV infection in vitro. In vivo study revealed that IL-8, TNFα, and IFN1 gene expressions were down-regulated in brain, head kidney, spleen, and gill while up-regulated in heart and liver, indicating differential proinflammatory and antiviral responses in the organs. It is supposed that down-regulation of proinflammatory gene expression in the immune organs may result in the failure of antiviral immune responses, causing high mortalities by megalocytivirus infection in rock bream.
