| Abstract | Background In the past years, our laboratory successfully generated transgenic rainbow trout bearing cecropin P1 transgene. These fish exhibited resistant characteristic to infection by Aeromonas salmonicida, Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV) and Ceratomyxa shasta (a parasitic pathogen). Previously, treating rainbow trout macrophage cells (RTS-11) with cecropin B, pleurocidin and CF17, respectively, resulted in elevated expression of two pro-inflammatory genes, e.g. cyclooxygenase-2 (cox-2) and interleukin-1β (il-1β). In addition, a profiling of global gene expression by 44 k salmonid microarray analysis was conducted, and the results showed that immune relevant processes have been perturbed in cecopin P1 transgenic rainbow trout. Therefore, we hypothesized that cecropin P1 may not only eliminate pathogens directly, but also modulate the host immune systems, leading to increased resistance against pathogen infections. To confirm this hypothesis, we performed de novo mRNA deep sequencing (RNA-Seq) to analyze the transcriptomic expression profiles in three immune competent tissues of cecropin P1 transgenic rainbow trout. Results De novo sequencing of mRNA of the rainbow trout spleen, liver and kidney tissues were conducted by second-generation Illumina system, followed by Trinity assembly. Tissue specific unigenes were obtained, and annotated according to the Gene Ontology (GO) and the Nucleotide Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST). Over 2000 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were determined by normalized ratio of Reads Per Kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads (RPKM) among the transgenic and non-transgenic fish in a tissue specific manner, and there were 82 DEGs in common among the three tissues. In addition, the enrichment analysis according to Gene Ontology Biological Process (GO:BP), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) based pathway analysis associated with innate/adaptive immunity of fish were also performed to illustrate the altered immune-related functions in each tissue. Conclusions According to the RNA-Seq data, the correlations between alteration of gene expression profiles and the functional perturbations of the host immune processes were revealed. In comparison with the results of cDNA microarray analysis conducted by Lo et al., the overall results supported our hypothesis that the gene product of cecropin P1 transgene may not only directly eliminate pathogens, but also modulate the host immune system. Results of this study present valuable genetic information for Oncorhynchus mykiss, and will benefit future studies on the immunology of this fish species. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
