    Abstract:
    As the direct executors of biological function, the expression level of proteins in host will reveal the molecular mechanisms regulating bacteria infection more directly. In the present study, the differential proteomes of Macrobrachium nipponense hemocytes response to Aeromonas hydrophila infection were identified with isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) labeling followed by liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. The hemocyte proteins from the unchallenged and A. hydrophila challenged prawn, M. nipponense, at 12, 24 and 36 h post infection were compared. From this, a total of 3372 proteins were identified and 1014 proteins were considered differentially expressed, of which 117 common differentially expressed proteins were indicated between the time points. Hierarchical clustering, Gene Ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment and protein-protein interaction network analyses were performed for the general characterization of overall enriched proteins. Cytoskeletal proteins including myosin heavy chain, myosin regulatory light chain, actin, tubulin alpha/beta chain, troponin I and troponin T as well as antioxidant enzymes such as catalase and cytosolic MnSOD were found significantly up-regulated in hemocytes, indicating that the phagocytosis process and ROS system were induced after challenge with A. hydrophila. And other proteins such as integrin β, innexin inx2-like and heat shock protein 60 also participate in prawn immune response against bacteria. Parallel reaction monitoring analyses were carried out for validation of the expression levels of differentially expressed proteins, which indicated high reliability of the proteomic results. This is the first report on proteome of M. nipponense hemocytes against A. hydrophila infection, which contributes to better understanding on the molecular mechanisms of prawns.
