AI Article Synopsis
- SHIP2 is a negative regulator of immune responses in vertebrates, and a similar protein called CgSHIP2 was identified in Pacific oysters.
- CgSHIP2 is expressed in various tissues, with the highest levels found in the haemolymph, and its expression increases in haemocytes following stimulation by the bacterium Vibrio splendidus.
- Inhibition of CgSHIP2 expression led to a significant increase in interleukin mRNA levels and noticeable physical changes in the gills of oysters, indicating its crucial role in managing bacterial-induced inflammation.
Article Abstract
SH2 domain containing inositol polyphosphate5-phosphatase-2 (SHIP2) is a member of the 5-phosphatase family, acting as a vital negative regulator of immune response in vertebrates. In the present study, a SHIP2 homologue (designed as CgSHIP2) was identified from Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas. There was a SH2 domain, an IPPc domain and a SAM domain in CgSHIP2. The mRNA transcripts of CgSHIP2 were widely expressed in all the tested tissues with the highest expression in haemolymph. The mRNA expressions of CgSHIP2 in haemocytes increased significantly at 6, 12, 48 and 72 h after Vibrio splendidus stimulation. The positive green signals of CgSHIP2 protein were mainly located in cytoplasm of haemocytes. After the expression of CgSHIP2 was inhibited by RNA interference, the mRNA transcripts of interleukin 17s (CgIL-17-1, CgIL-17-2, CgIL-17-3 and CgIL-17-6) in the haemocytes increased significantly at 24 h after V. splendidus stimulation, which were 8.15-fold (p < 0.001), 3.44-fold (p < 0.05), 2.15-fold (p < 0.01) and 4.63-fold (p < 0.05) compared with that in NC-RNAi group, respectively. Obvious branchial swelling and cilium shedding in gills were observed in CgSHIP2-RNAi group at 24 h after V. splendidus stimulation. The results suggested that CgSHIP2 played an important role in controlling inflammatory response induced by bacteria in oysters.

Prostaglandin E2 imparts diverse physiological effects on multiple cells through its actions on four distinct E-type prostanoid (EP) receptor subtypes (EP1-EP4), among which the EP4 is one of subtypes known to mediate the immune response in mammalian monocytes and macrophages. However, the precise characteristics and functions of EP4 in mollusks remain unclear. In the present study, an EP4 homologue (designated as CgEP4) was identified from oyster Crassostrea gigas.

Adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) is a major molecule in the inner membrane of mitochondria that plays an important role in regulating mitophagy. In the present study, a conserved ANT2 homologue (designated as CgANT2) was identified and functionally characterized in oyster Crassostrea gigas. There were three typical Mito_carr tandem repeats in CgANT2.

The oyster Crassostrea gigas larvae in embryonic development stage have been suffering high mortality rate during hatching, which have seriously hindered the sustainable development of oyster seedling industry. This study explored the immune protection and developmental effects of priming with inactivated Vibrio splendidus in oyster larvae at middle umbo stage (10 d post fertilization, dpf). The results showed that the immune system of umbo larvae was activated after pre-immune stimulation with inactivated V.

Phagocytosis is a major cellular mechanism for mollusk granulocytes to eliminate nonself substances and dead cells, and thus to preserve the immune homeostasis. The knowledge of the regulatory mechanisms controlling phagocytic capacity is vital to understanding the immune system. In the present study, an ATF3 homolog (CgATF3) with a typical bZIP domain was identified in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas.
