| Abstract: |
| Mammalian macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) plays an important role as an indispensable mediator in the pathogenesis of inflammatory disease like septicemia, but little is known about the role of MIF homologue in fish septicemia. The authors have cloned the MIF homologue in large yellow croaker Pseudosciaena crocea (LycMIF) using RACE approach. The full-length cDNA of LycMIF was 634 bases and contained an ORF of 345 bases encoding a protein of 115 amino acid residues. As demonstrated by RT-PCR and QRT-PCR assay, MIF mRNAs were constitutively expressed in 11 selected tissues and were abundant in brain and liver. Moreover, the LycMIF transcripts in the liver and head kidney were responsive to bacteria infection and could be significantly up-regulated. Our results provide the first direct evidence that fish MIF was implicated in pathogenesis of fish vibrosis and play an important role in response to bacteria infection. |
