    Abstract:
    As a lipid mediator with important immune function, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) has been widely studied in mammals, whereas its synthetic pathway and immune function in fish have yet to be fully studied. To investigate the regulation of PGE2 synthetic pathway and inflammatory genes expression by dietary different oils and the underlying relationship, a 10-week feeding experiment and an immune challenge were carried out in marine fish Larimichthys crocea. Replacement of dietary fish oil (FO) with four vegetable oils (VO), including soybean oil, linseed oil, palm oil, and olive oil, all reduced PGE2 levels, and the decrease of arachidonic acid (ARA, substrate for PGE2) could account for this decline. Meanwhile, the expression of PGE2 synthesis related genes was basically upregulated, which seemed to be a feedback regulation, but it cannot compensate the deficiency of ARA. In addition, mRNA expression of inflammatory genes, including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α and interferon (IFN)γ was all upregulated in four VO groups compared with FO group, which was the opposite of PGE2 levels. To verify the inflammatory regulation of PGE2, an immune challenge was conducted, and PGE2 alleviated LPS-induced expression of inflammatory genes, including IL-6, TNFα and IFNγ, and the similar downregulation of toll-like receptor (TLR) genes expression revealed that TLR signaling pathway participated in the anti-inflammatory regulation of PGE2. In conclusion, replacement of dietary FO with four VO (lack of ARA) reduced the levels of PGE2 that could alleviate LPS-induced inflammatory genes expression via TLR signaling pathway, which could be one of the reasons that VO induced inflammation in marine fish.
