The virulence of E. piscicida is known to be associated with the type III secretion system (T3SS) which is a protein transport nanomachine that injects effector proteins directly into host cells to be resistant to phagocyte killing. The functions and importance of the T3SS genes for the virulence of E. piscicida have been identified using murine macrophages or model fish. In this study, we evaluated the contribution of the T3SS genes consisting of orf13 (escE), orf19 (esaE) and orf29/30 (eseJ) for the virulence in a natural host using Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Intracellular replication ability in macrophage-like cells isolated from Japanese flounder was significantly decreased in all knockout mutants compared to the wild-type strain. In the challenge test using Japanese flounder, the virulence of Δorf13 and Δorf19 mutants was significantly decreased, but not for Δorf29 and Δorf30 mutants. Thus, escE and esaE genes are considered to highly affect the virulence in Japanese flounder.

Herein, the skin cell line (SPSK) of <i>S. prenanti</i> was established using the tissue block method to aid in protecting <i>S. prenanti</i> at the cellular level and provide a skin cell line that can be applied in functional genomics and disease aetiology of the spring viraemia of carp virus (SVCV), which is highly infectious in Cyprinidae fish.

Karyotype analysis further revealed that the chromosome number of SPSK ranged between 140 and 149, with 146 accounting for the highest proportion. Significant fluorescent signals were observed after transfection of SPSK with pEGFP-N1 and Cy3-siRNA, with a 30% and 90% transfection efficiency, respectively. Severe cytopathic effects (CPE) were also observed when SPSK was infected with SVCV, and the SVCV glycoprotein gene was detected by RT-PCR, indicating that SPSK was susceptible to SVCV. To further explore the mechanism of bacterial infection, transcriptome analysis was conducted for LPS treated SPSK cells and 9099 differentially expressed genes were identified. These genes significantly enriched into pathways including the Haematopoietic Cell Lineage and Primary immunodeficiency. Furthermore, seven predominantly expressed epidermal maker genes were identified by transcriptomic data, suggesting that SPSK cells were mainly derived from skin epidermis, composed of epidermal stem cell, Merkel cell, and immune cell.
