An infectious disease emerged in recent years, Tilapia Lake Virus Disease (TiLVD), has severely restricted the development of global tilapia industry. Vaccination has proved potential strategy to prevent its causative agent Tilapia Lake Virus (TiLV) infectious. However, the response intensity of subunit vaccine is limited by its low immunogenicity, thus inclusion of adjuvants is required. Thus, we prepared a biomimetic nano-system (Cs-S2@M-M) with a particle size of ∼100 nm and an encapsulation efficiency of about 79.15% based on erythrocyte membrane. The immune response was detected after intramuscular injection to assess the effectiveness of the vaccine. The biomimetic system significantly up-regulates the expression of immune genes, enhances the activity of non-specific immune-related enzymes (P < 0.05) and improved relative percentage survival by 17.4%-26.1% in TiLV challenge. The biomimetic nano-system based on erythrocyte membrane induced significant immune response in tilapia and enhanced protection against TiLV, promising as a model for fish vaccines.

Piscine orthoreovirus-1 and 3 (PRV-1, PRV-3) cause highly prevalent infection in cultured salmonids and can induce heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) resulting in economic losses in aquaculture. However, to date, PRV-1 and PRV-3 have withstood replication in continuous cell lines. In this study, we used beating heart cell cultures obtained from different developmental stages of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (RTC-L and RTC-A) and tested their ability to sustain replication of PRV-1 and PRV-3.

Background: is a member of the tilapia family that is considered one of the main food sources in different countries all over the world.
Aim: Thus, studying the different pathogens infecting tilapia species is still one of the interesting search points.
Methods: One hundred and eighty specimens of were collected from Lake Manzala and transported directly in iceboxes to the laboratory of the faculty of Science at Port Said University.

Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) disease is highly contagious and causes substantial mortality in tilapia. Currently, no effective treatments or commercial vaccines are available to prevent TiLV infection. In this study, TiLV segment 4 (S4) was cloned into the pET28a(+)vector and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3).
