Gel-enhanced liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (GeLC-MS/MS) was used to analyze the proteome of Macrobrachium rosenbergii hepatopancreas responded to Poly (I:C). GeLC-MS/MS analysis identified 515 differentially-expressed proteins with ≥1.5 and ≤ -0.5 log fold change. Of these, 195 differentially-expressed proteins were significantly matched to known proteins in the database, of which 102 proteins were up-regulated and 93 proteins were down-regulated. These proteins were classified into 21 categories, i.e. metabolic process, oxidative stress response, signaling, transcription, translation, cell cycle, transport, etc. Several immune factors were up-regulated upon Poly (I:C) injection. Protein-protein interaction network analysis of these immune factors identified three major protein clusters including RNAi, stress responses, and Toll pathway-proPO system, implying that Poly (I:C) activates immune responses in prawn through several mechanisms.

Sperm activation occurring in both male and female reproductive tract involves a highly complex series of biomolecular dynamics, particularly on membrane lipids and proteins. In mammals, the universal anticipation in cholesterol (CHO) sequestration plays a role in mammalian sperm maturation/capacitation, subsequently enhancing sperm fertilizing ability. In shrimp, we have previously shown that the level of cholesterol (CHO) is significantly reduced in vas deferens sperm when compared with sperm in the testes, presumably due to the sequestering action of the lipid-binding protein, one of which is Niemann-Pick Type C-2 (NPC2).

Our previous studies revealed a mating attractant or possibly a pheromone released from molting reproductive mature female prawns, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, stimulates the expression of insulin-like androgenic gland hormones in a co-culture system. The released attractant is perceived by olfactory receptors with setae located on the short lateral antennules (slAn), which connect to the olfactory neuropil in the central nervous system (CNS) of male prawns. This neural signaling propagating through the CNS is mediated by at least four neuropeptides, namely neuropeptide F (NPF), short NPF (sNPF), tachykinin (TK), and allatostatin-A (ATS-A) whose transcripts have been detected in the present study.

The anatomical, histological, and histochemical characteristics of the foregut (FG), midgut (MG), and hindgut (HG), as well as their alterations during the ovarian cycle in female prawns, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, were investigated. The esophagus (ESO), cardia (CD), and pylorus (PY) are the main components of the FG. An epithelium (Ep) with thick cuticle (Cu) layers lining the ESO, and the ESO is encircled by the ESO glands.

The selection and expression of conspicuous colorations in animals is often related to anti-predation strategies and sociosexual communication. The giant river prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879) is a species with three male morphotypes that vary in claws' coloration and the size of the animals. It has been suggested that male reproductive quality might be associated to their coloration, but evidence is still conflicting.
