Cells of the Adaptive Immune Response

8.9K
The T and B lymphocytes of the adaptive immune system develop from common lymphoid progenitor cells in the bone marrow. These progenitors give rise to precursors that eventually develop into both T and B lymphocytes. As these precursors mature, they gain the ability to detect and respond to foreign antigens in the body, a process known as immunocompetence. Additionally, these precursors acquire self-tolerance, a process that ensures they do not react to self-antigens. This intricate system...

Immune Response Against Viral Pathogens

2.0K
The immune system's response to viral infections is a complex and coordinated process involving natural killer (NK) cells, T cell-mediated responses, and antibody-mediated responses.
NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...

Cells of the Innate Immune Response

9.2K
The innate immune response is an immediate and non-specific response against pathogens, acting swiftly to prevent the spread of infections. The primary cells involved in this response are phagocytes and natural killer (NK) cells.
Phagocytes
Phagocytes police the peripheral tissues by removing cellular debris and responding to the invasion of foreign substances or pathogens. Many phagocytes attack and remove microorganisms even before lymphocytes detect them. The human body has two general...

Cytotoxic T Cells-mediated Immune Response

7.5K
Cytotoxic T cells are a vital component of the immune system. They have the remarkable ability to identify and target antigens on infected or abnormal cells. These antigens often originate from intracellular pathogens such as viruses or abnormal proteins cancer cells produce.
Immunological surveillance is the ability of immune cells to monitor and eliminate infected cells with intracellular pathogens, neoplastically transformed cells, and cells with non-self antigens. Cytotoxic T cells and NK...

Summary

Shrimps combat viruses using innate immunity, but White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) manipulates these defenses. Understanding shrimp immune responses to WSSV is key for developing effective antiviral strategies.

Area of Science:

  • * Aquatic animal immunology
  • * Viral pathogenesis in crustaceans

Background:

  • * White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a major threat to global penaeid shrimp aquaculture.
  • * Shrimps possess innate immune mechanisms (humoral and cellular immunity) to fight viral infections.
  • * WSSV infection presents a complex interplay, with the shrimp immune system playing a dual role in protection and susceptibility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • * To review current knowledge on shrimp innate immune responses against WSSV.
  • * To elucidate the molecular mechanisms employed by WSSV to evade or subvert shrimp immunity.
  • * To highlight the importance of understanding host-pathogen interactions for developing WSSV control strategies.

Main Methods:

  • * Comprehensive literature review of studies on shrimp immunity and WSSV.
  • * Analysis of molecular interactions between WSSV and shrimp immune components.
  • * Synthesis of current understanding of immune evasion and subversion strategies.

Main Results:

  • * Innate immune responses are crucial for shrimp defense against WSSV.
  • * WSSV utilizes sophisticated molecular mechanisms to counteract shrimp immunity.
  • * The virus can actively manipulate host immune pathways for its replication and spread.

Conclusions:

  • * Deciphering WSSV's immune evasion tactics is critical for shrimp health management.
  • * Understanding the balance between shrimp immunity and WSSV pathogenesis is essential.
  • * This knowledge is foundational for developing safe and effective WSSV countermeasures.
