ABSTRACT
Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a CXC chemokine, exerts pivotal effect on cell migration, inflammatory response, and immune regulation. In this study, we examined the immunological characteristics of an IL-8 like homologue (PoIL8-L) in Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). PoIL8-L contains a conserved chemokine CXC domain and 105 amino acid residues. PoIL8-L expression in tissues was constitutive, and significantly regulated by V. havieri or E. tarda infection. In vitro, rPoIL8-L could bind to eight tested bacteria, exhibited bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects against certain bacteria, and could bind to the targeted bacterial â
£ pilin protein rPilA of E. tarda. Furthermore, rPoIL8-L could attach to peripheral blood leukocytes, and enhance their immune genes expression, respiratory burst, chemotaxis, proliferation, acid phosphatase activity, and phagocytic activity. Additionally, rPoIL8-L induce neutrophils to extrude neutrophil extracellular traps. In vivo, rPoIL8-L could promote host resistance to E. tarda infection. In summary, these findings provide fresh perspectives on the immunological antibacterial properties of IL-8 in teleost.
