Modulation of the immune response of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) after infection with viral haemorragic septicaemia virus

ABSTRACT: Turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) is a valuable resource for aquaculture in Galicia (NW Spain). Since it has been observed that viral hemorraghic septicaemia can affect turbot, among other finfish, increase of knowledge in molecular factors affected by the exposure to pathogen could help to develop strategies of VHSV prevention and treatment. In this study, it has been used a custom oligo-microarray by Agilent to identify genes differentially expressed in several turbot families showing different susceptibility to VHSV. Fishes from each family (n=30) were injected with either VHSV (Resistant) or control medium (Naive) and monitored for 30 days, when each group was splitted in two new groups and rechallenged with VHSV (Infected) or control medium (Control).
