The mucosal immune system of fish: The evolution of tolerating commensals while fighting pathogens

Abstract: The field of mucosal immunology research has grown fast over the past few years, and our understanding on how mucosal surfaces respond to complex antigenic cocktails is expanding tremendously. With the advent of new molecular sequencing techniques, it is easier to understand how the immune system of vertebrates is, to a great extent, orchestrated by the complex microbial communities that live in symbiosis with their hosts. The commensal microbiota is now seen as the “extended self” by many scientists. Similarl… Show more

“…In fish, the intestinal immune barrier mainly depends on gutassociated lymphoid tissue, which consists of variably sized immune cells such as monocytes, lymphocytes, macrophages and granulocytes [9]. These cells could produce immune molecules such as lysozyme, acid phosphatase (ACP) and complement protein 3 (C3), which play an important role in the intestinal innate immune responses of fish [10].…”

“…Esta red de proteínas da la estructura de viscosidad al mucus (Padra et al, 2014). También contienen uno o más dominios de proteí-na con sitios de unión extensa O-glicano (Gómez et al, 2013). Están compuestas en un 70 a 90% de carbohidratos, que se pueden separar de otras proteínas sobre la base de la densidad (Padra et al, 2014).…”

“…En la carpa, dos genes de mucina se han caracterizado: MUC2 y MUC5B, exhibiendo homología con las mucinas de mamí-feros (Marel et al, 2012). Estos avances en la comprensión de la respuesta inmune de las mucosas en peces teleósteos, abren el potencial de los teleósteos como modelos de investigación de animales para el estudio de enfermedades de las mucosas humanas (Gómez et al, 2013). MUC2, MUC5AC y MUC5B se encuentra en la piel de salmón del Atlántico (Micallef et al, 2012); sin embargo, la comprensión de cómo el pez hués-ped del parásito es capaz de regular la expresión génica de la mucina está lejos de ser completa (Gómez et al, 2013).…”
