ABSTRACT In the present study, the oxidative stress response in hepatopancreas of
9
Marsupenaeus japonicas to desiccation stress and resubmersed in seawater were studied, such as
10
respiratory burst, ROS production (·O2-), activities of antioxidant enzymes (CAT, GPx, SOD, POD and
11
GST) and oxidative damage to lipid and protein (indexed by contents of MDA). The duration of
12
desiccation significantly influenced shrimp survival, and the mortality rates were 37.5% and 87.5%
13
after desiccation 5 h and 10 h, respectively. After desiccation stress 3 h, the respiratory burst, ROS
14
production, and the activity of SOD and CAT were up-regulated significantly. The activity of GPx and
15
POD, and the content of MDA decreased significantly at 0.5 h and 1 h, and then increased significantly
16
at 3 h. But GST activity was no significant change after desiccation. During the resubmersion period,
17
most of the antioxidant enzymes activities could recover to the control level at 24 h, but a small
18
quantity of the oxidative stress still existed in tissues. HE staining showed that desiccation stress
19
induced damage symptoms in hepatopancreas of M. japonicus. These results revealed that desiccation
20
influenced the antioxidative status and caused oxidative stress and tissue damage via confusion of
21
antioxidant enzymes in M. japonicas, but the oxidative stress could be eliminated within a certain range

25
The kuruma shrimp Marsupenaeus japonicus is an economically important shrimp species widely
27
cultured in Taiwan and southeastern Asia, and the shrimp productions increase every year [1-2]. Due to
28
its multiple merits, such as good reproductive performance, fast growth rate, and the capability of being
29
transported live without water, the culture areas of which expands rapidly. In the shrimp-grade culture
30
system, live shrimps are removed from the water and exposure in the air for transport between ponds
31
[3]. However, shrimps usually suffer from desiccation during transportation without water. In addition,
32
the habits of M. japonicus hidden in the sand, may lead to it exposed to the desiccation stress during the
33
process of the water exchange and ponds leakage. Previous studies have demonstrated that desiccation
34
is one of the more severe stressors to crustaceans, which can cause serious metabolic and respiratory
35
disturbances [4-8]. Therefore, better understanding of the adaptation mechanism of the kuruma shrimp
36
will be beneficial to the health management and varieties breeding in shrimp aquaculture.

Stress factors, including pathogen infection [9], acute salinity or pH changes [10], temperature stress
38
[11], hypoxia [12], and desiccation [3,13] have been shown to induce reactive oxygen species (ROS)
39
generation in aquatic animals. ROS, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide anion (·O2-) and
40
hydroxyl free radical (·OH), are thought to be involved in cancer, aging and various inflammatory
41
disorders [13,14]. In addition, these ROSs can kill harmful pathogens like bacteria and virus efficiently
42
and also play an important role in immune signal transduction [15,16]. However, the mass

However, little is known about the effects of desiccation on shrimp physiology and the role of
49
antioxidants in M. japonicus exposed to desiccation is uncertain. Whether the antioxidant enzymes of
50
M. japonicus play important roles in the resistance to desiccation stress worth for studying, and the
51
screening of evaluation index for desiccation is signality. Therefore, the aim of this study was to: (1)
52
investigate the mortalities of M. japonicus under desiccation exposure; (2) evaluate the effects of
53
desiccation on the ultrastructural changes of the cells in hepatopancreas of M. japonicus; (3) analyze
54
the effects of desiccation and resubmersion on the respiratory burst, ROS production and antioxidant
55
enzyme changes in hepatopancreas of M. japonicus. These results will be essential to better understand

the roles of antioxidant defense systems in immune response of M. japonicus.

4. Discussion Oxidative bursts, a rapid, transient, production of large amounts of ROS, are one of the important
224
defense strategies of crustaceans against stress factors, including chemical, physical and biological
225
stressors [20]. During desiccation stress condition, the combined effects of low dissolved oxygen, pH,
226
salinity and temperature causes severely damage and triggers more complicated oxidative stress such as
227
ROS production response to aquatic organisms [19]. Most cells have protective mechanisms to balance
228
ROS production and avoid oxidative stress, namely antioxidants. The antioxidant system of aerobic
229
organisms prevents the deleterious effects of ROS, playing a vital role in protecting cells against
230
oxidative stress, preventing or repairing oxidative damage [21-23]. Previous studies have demonstrated
231
that organism recovery a period of time after environment stresses could eliminate the metabolites in
232
tissues and alleviate the pressure of the stresses [24]. Hepatopancreas was regarded as the metabolic
233
center for ROS production and the most sensitive tissue response to external stress stimulation in
234
crustacean [25,26]. Therefore, information on the antioxidant enzymes activity in hepatopancreas of
235
shrimps after desiccation and resubmersion would be helpful to better understand its immunological
236
function.

The ·O2- is the first product released from a respiratory burst [20]. In the present study, ·O2- was
238
significantly induced by desiccation. As an important endogenous antioxidant protein, SOD provides
239
the first and most important line of ROS eliminated from the cells, which catalyzes the conversion
240
of ·O2- to H2O2 and molecular oxygen, then H2O2 is transformed to water and oxygen via CAT or GPx
241
[27,28]. In the present study, respiratory bursts and ·O2- generation capacity in hepatopancreas of M.
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT japonicus increased significantly after desiccation, indicating that desiccation affects the oxidative
243
status of M. japonicus. Following the elevation of respiratory bursts, SOD activity in hepatopancreas of
244
M. japonicus increased significantly after desiccation 1 h and 3 h. Similar patterns exhibited in several
245
aquatic animals under limited O2 conditions. For example, SOD activity increased significantly in
246
Litopenaeus vannamei [3], Paralomis granulosa [29] and Chlamys farreri [30] after them under
247
desiccation. In addition, the muscles of L. vannamei showed a higher SOD activity in response to
248
hypoxia than under controlled conditions, which all revealed that SOD activity could be due to a
249
transient systemic response to the injury inflicted during desiccation that would be expected to generate
250
increased systemic levels of ROS for avoiding harmful effects caused by desiccation [31]. After
251
resubmersed in aerated seawater for 24 h, respiratory bursts and SOD activity in hepatopancreas of M.

GPx is generally thought to be more important than CAT as a H2O2-removing system because GPx
255
have a higher degree of affinity for H2O2 than CAT [9]. GPx can eliminate H2O2 effectively even if the
256
concentration of H2O2 is very low, whereas CAT can not. In addition, GPx are distributed widely in cell,
257
but CAT only located in the peroxisome, which causes it to function only when the concentration of
258
H2O2 is high in cell and H2O2 diffuses into the peroxisome [32,33]. In the present study, following the
259
elevation of respiratory bursts and SOD activity, the CAT activity of hepatopancreas significantly

significantly after desiccation 0.5 h and 1 h, similar results were found in the activity of POD, which

MDA is the end product of lipid peroxidation, which can reflect the degree of lipid peroxidation and
275
is recognized as an important indicator of oxidative damage to the cellular membrane [36,37]. In P.
276
granulosa, lipid peroxidation levels of the hepatopancreas increased after subjected to air exposure [38].
277
In our study, a significant decrease in MDA levels was observed in hepatopancreas of M. japonicus
278
after desiccation 0.5 h and 1 h, then increased significantly at 3 h, and at last recovered to the normal
279
during the resubmersion period, which indicated that the ROS of tissues could be eliminated by

excessive and intensified membranous lipid peroxidation, leading to cellular damage and oxidative

In conclusion, the present study documented changes of respiratory bursts, ·O2- generation capacity,
284
antioxidant enzymes (CAT, GPx, SOD, POD and GST) activity and MDA contents in hepatopancreas
285
of M. japonicus after desiccation stress and resubmersion. Antioxidant enzymes are modulated in
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT response to oxidative stress induced by desiccation stress, and these activities or contents data can
287
serve as sensitive indicator of oxidative damage in monitoring desiccation stress. Oxidative stress can
288
be eliminated within a certain stress range, such as desiccation 3 h, when the shrimp back to the normal
289
habitat environments. These results will be essential to provide the valuable data about the
290
transportation without water and the regulatory mechanisms of the resistance to desiccation in M.
