ABSTRACT
Aeromonas hydrophila, the pathogen that is the causative agent of motile Aeromonas septicemia (MAS) disease, commonly attacks freshwater fishes, including yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco). Although the kidney is one of the most important organs involved in immunity in fish, its role in disease progression has not been fully elucidated. Understanding the cellular composition and innate immune regulation mechanisms of the kidney of yellow catfish is important for the treatment of MAS. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed on the kidney of hybrid yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco â × Pelteobagrus vachelli â) after A. hydrophila infection. Nine types of kidney cells were identified using marker genes, and a transcription module of marker genes in the main immune cells of hybrid yellow catfish kidney tissue was constructed using in-situ hybridization. In addition, the single-cell transcriptome data showed that the differentially expressed genes of macrophages were primarily enriched in the Toll-like receptor and Nod-like receptor signaling pathways. The expression levels of genes involved in these pathways were upregulated in macrophages following A. hydrophila infection. Transmission electron microscopy and TUNEL analysis revealed the cellular characteristics of macrophages before and after A. hydrophila infection. These data provide empirical support for in-depth research on the role of the kidney in the innate immune response of hybrid yellow catfish.
