Several immune-related genes, including Toll-like receptors (TLR), are associated with circadian rhythms in mammals. However, information on the circadian rhythmic expression of TLRs in fish is limited. In this study, we aimed to analyze the regulation of diel oscillations in the expression of TLR genes in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes). The expression analysis revealed diel expression patterns of tlr1, tlr5m, tlr21, and clock genes (bmal1 and clock1) under a 12 h light:12 h dark cycle. The clock gene response element (E-box) was identified in the transcriptional regulatory regions of tlr1, tlr5m, and tlr21. Moreover, overexpressed bmal1 and clock1 enhanced expression levels of tlr1, tlr5m, and tlr21 in medaka embryo (OLHdrR-e3) cells. The expression of tlr1, tlr5m, and tlr21 was significantly decreased in OLHdrR-e3 after generating a bmal1 knockdown using a morpholino oligo. These results indicate the regulation of the diel rhythmic expression of several fish TLRs by clock genes.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs), as a family of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), possess specific pathogen-related molecular pattern (PAMP) recognition spectrum in inducing immune responses. In this study, sixteen TLRs were identified and characterized in mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi). All these TLRs consist of leucine-rich repeats (LRRs), a transmembrane domain and a Toll/interleukin-I receptor (TIR) domain, with the exception of TLR5S which lacks TIR domain, and they can be clustered into five branches, i.

Oncorhynchus kisutch is the third most cultivated salmonid species in the Chilean salmon industry and its farming conditions are characterised by high stocking density leading to the generation of high levels of organic matter (food - feces) and decomposition. In addition to the increasingly frequent hypoxic oceanographic events, these inappropriate farming conditions increase the demand for oxygen within the fish farm pen and lead to the appearance of hypoxic events that are harmful to fish.This study aimed to evaluate the stress response (cortisol) and transcription of genes involved in the immune response in head kidney and spleen of Oncorhynchus kisutch subjected to chronic hypoxic stress conditions.

The innate immune system is the first line of defense against infection by pathogens. It consists of various elements, including Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which recognize molecular patterns associated with pathogens and trigger the immune response, through activation of important transcription factors such as NF-κB, which are usually found sequestered in the cytoplasm by IκBα until it receives the release signal. Piscirickettsia salmonis causes piscirickettsiosis or salmonid rickettsial septicemia, a disease of great importance in Chile, representing 79.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is considered as a powerful inducer of muscle atrophy in higher vertebrates due to skeletal muscle cell recognition of the endotoxin and a consequent activation of catabolic signaling pathways. In contrast, there is no evidence of LPS directly inducing skeletal muscle atrophy in lower vertebrates, such as fish. For years it has been assumed that fish are resistant to LPS, mainly due to differences in the key features of toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathways when compared with mammals.
