Genome-wide identification of interleukin-17 (IL17) in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) and its expression following Aeromonas hydrophila infection

Expression profile of cytokine genes in the common carp species Cyprinus carpio L. following infection with Aeromonas hydrophila

In the current study, the expression levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), CC-chemokine and CXC-chemokine were examined in head kidney (HK) leukocytes of common carp Cyprinus carpio L. following experimental infection with Aeromonas hydrophila and compared with those of carp treated with formalin-killed A. hydrophila. The expression of IL-1β was highest at 8 h p...

Genome Wide Identification, Phylogeny, and Expression of Aquaporin Genes in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio)

BACKGROUND Aquaporins (Aqps) are integral membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of water and small solutes across cell membranes. Among vertebrate species, Aqps are highly conserved in both gene structure and amino acid sequence. These proteins are vital for maintaining water homeostasis in living organisms, especially for aquatic animals such as teleost fish. Studies on teleost Aqps ...

Immunogenicity of Hemolysin, Protease and Lipopolysaccharide Extracted from Aeromonas hydrophila in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.).

Common Carp, Cyprinus carpio

The common carp (Cyprinus carpio) belongs to the family Cyprinidae. In nature, carp live in the middle or lower reaches of a river with slow currents, or in marshes. Their habitats are usually weedy areas with a muddy bottom. Carp fry feed on zooplankton such as rotifers and copepods, but as they grow up they become benthic feeders, feeding on animals and other organic material. The cyprinids h...

Common carp - Cyprinus carpio

Distribution ! e common carp [Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus (1758)] has been one of the oldest domesticated species of fi sh for food. Culture of carp in China dates back to at least the 5th century BC, although domestication began much later. ! e European races of carp derived from wild carp of the Danube; the earliest attempts date back to the Roman Empire and spread of Christianity in Europe, fro...
