Moroxydine hydrochloride (Mor) and ribavirin (Rib) are known for their multi-antiviral activities against DNA and RNA viruses but little information is available about the pharmacological impact in aquaculture. The present study was undertaken to investigate the response of host cells to antiviral compounds during the anti-GCRV treatment. The scanning electron microscope results showed that Ctenopharyngodon idella kidney (CIK) cells have a higher death rate at 72 h post virus infection. At the concentration of 40 μg mL − 1 , Mor and Rib had a significant protective effect on virus-infected cells. Moreover, the gene expressions of vp5, vp6 and NS66 were significantly inhibited by treatment with Mor or Rib, especially gene expression of the vp5 . For the immunoregulatory action, no distinct induction of the expression of immune genes was observed after the addition of Mor and Rib to the virus-free cells. However, the compounds significantly decreased the virus-induced gene overexpression of Myd88, Mx1, IL-1β, IL-8, I-IFN and TNFα in CIK cells. Moreover, Mor and Rib significantly inhibited the immune genes upregulation which was induced by GCRV in kidney, liver, muscle and gill of grass carp, despite greater partial gene expressions were detected than the virus-free control group. Besides, Mor and Rib blocked cell cycle changes, cytopathic effects, cellular death and virus proliferation in CIK cells thereby maintaining normal morphological structure. Overall, Mor and Rib as antiviral compounds are effective for the control of GCRV replication and the indirectly regulation of cellular immune response.

Grass carp hemorrhagic disease caused by grass carp reovirus (GCRV) results in significant economic losses to the global grass carp aquaculture industry. Oral vaccination is an ideal choice for disease precaution in aquaculture. However, oral vaccine can be degraded in the gut. Therefore, the selection of loading materials is essential. In this study, the S6 and S7 fragments (encoding the outer capsid protein VP4 and fibronectin VP56 of GCRV) and grass carp interferons (IFNs), including IFN1, IFN3, and IFNγ2 were used to create DNA vaccines and adjuvants based on pcDNA3.1, respectively. The oral DNA vaccine was encapsulated in poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with IFNs. The PLGA-PVA (PP) nano-microspheres were prepared by double emulsion-solvent evaporation technique. Using transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering assays, it was determined the vaccines had a spherical structure with uniform particle size (643.5 ± 35.3 nm). The nano-microspheres possessed excellent encapsulation efficiency (81.6 ± 2.6%) and loading rate (0.54 ± 0.02%), and simultaneously exhibited negligible hemolytic activity and cell toxicity. The protection rate and tissue viral loads post-GCRV challenge in grass carp were assessed. The oral PP nano-microsphere with pVP4 + pIFN1 (PP41) vaccine increased protection rate by 44% compared with the control group and was correlated with relatively low viral loads in the spleen, head kidney, and hindgut. Further, three crucial serum biochemical indexes, total superoxide dismutase (TSOD), complement C3 (C3), and lysozyme (LZM), were also dramatically increased. Furthermore, mRNA expressions of representative immune-related genes (IgM, IFN1, IFNγ2, MHC-Ⅰ, and CD8α) in the head kidney and spleen were significantly enhanced. In addition, mRNA expression of IgT was significantly boosted in the hindgut. The results indicate that DNA vaccine capsulated with PP is effective against GCRV infection. The present study provides insights into a prospective strategy for oral vaccine development in aquaculture.

Our previous studies have verified that moroxydine hydrochloride (Mor) could inhibit replication of grass carp reovirus (GCRV) and suppress apoptosis of Ctenopharyngodon idella kidney cells, but be lack of information whether exists on antiviral activity in vivo. The paper was undertaken to explore the antiviral response of Mor against GCRV in grass carp and investigate the safety of drug for aquatic organisms. The results showed that injection treatment of Mor could more effectively inhibit GCRV replication than immersion administration. All the RNA systheses of vp3 and vp6 on day 7 in head kidney, gill, hepatopancreas and dorsal muscle in the Mor injection group were lesser than 0.07-fold than that of in control group. And the GCRV-inducing grass carp mortality was effectively controlled within 7 days post Mor injection therapy. Additionally, the reduction of superoxide dismutase activity, total antioxidant capacity and catalase activity in serum was effectively controlled by Mor. Moreover, drug safety assessment results showed that 500 mg/L of Mor was safe to C. idella , Bacillus subtilis , Chlorella vulgaris and Tetrahymena thermophila , which was far higher than the therapeutic concentration. The present study proved Mor as harmless formulations or products had potential value in the control of GCRV in aquaculture, with the advantage of super in vivo antiviral activity and environmental safety.

Moroxydine hydrochloride (Mor) is known to have multi-antiviral activities against DNA and RNA viruses but very little information exists on its pharmacology. The paper was undertaken to explore the antiviral response and antiapoptotic mechanism of Mor against grass carp reovirus (GCRV) in Ctenopharyngodon idella kidney (CIK) cells. The results showed that exposing GCRV-infected cell to 6.3 μg mL −1 of Mor for 96 h avoid ca. 50% apoptosis . Meanwhile, Mor had lower cytotoxicity than ribavirin (Rib) as the value of safe concentration was threefold higher than effective concentration and the compound could ensure sufficient into and out of cells within 4 h when tested at the maximal safe concentration. Mor blocked the GCRV-induced cytopathic effects and eliminated nucleocapsids in CIK cells to keep the normal morphological structure. Moreover, the expressions of viral protein genes were significantly inhibited especially the guanylyl transferase and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase related expression. Furthermore, GCRV caused Bcl-2 down-regulation and Bax mitochondrial translocation was prevented by treatment of CIK cells with Mor. The downstream effector, caspase activity was also significantly inhibited in Mor treated cells. The potential mechanism might be that mitochondrial apoptotic signals were not activated by the intervention of Mor for targeting viral gene expression. Taken together, Mor showed high anti-GCRV activity and had been proved as a secure and promising agent in viral controlling in aquaculture industry.
