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

RI PT

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

accumulation of ROS in animals will cause serious cell damage, resulting in various diseases [17]. To

defense systems, including antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT),

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

56

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

Healthy adult M. japonicus, averaging weight 10.65 ± 0.34 g, were randomly collected from a

60

commercial farm in Zhongshan, China, and did not distinguish male and female. They were cultured in

61

filtered aerated seawater (salinity 16‰, pH 8.5) at 25 ± 0.5 ℃ for 7 days before processing. The

62

shrimps were fed daily with a ration of 5% of body weight, and one-thirds of the water in each group

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.

252

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

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

260

increased after desiccation 0.5 h, then decreased gradually at 1 h and 3 h, but still higher than the

261

control, suggesting that the enhancement of CAT activity is associated with increasing protection to

262

diminish the harm from a H2O2 induced by desiccation. But GPx activity dropped to a low level

263

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

GST have been demonstrated that it play roles in detoxification and protection from oxidative

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

280

antioxidant enzymes at earlier periods, but the longtime of desiccation induced ROS formation

281

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

stress [39,40].

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.
