Three types of clonal cell lines were isolated according to their size and phenotype from the adherent cell populations in long-term liquid cultures from the embryonic fibroblast cells of Zebrafish, Danio rerio. All kind of cell lines were well proliferated. The size and number of clonal cell lines derived colonies from stable embryonic cells were significantly increased in the presence of NAC and A2P conditioned medium from the cell lines. The stable cell lines and clonal cell lines were cap-able of well proliferation in vitro. These cell lines have been maintained in continuous culture without change in characteristics. A majority of the clonal cells (80%) was shown a normal chromosomal complement (50 chromosomes, 2N) in according with FACs analysis. Majority of cells were positive to vimentin staining and none of them were positive for nestin and Oct -4 by immunocytochemistry. These results indicate that the clonal cell lines obtained from cultured cells are fibroblasts and may be extremely useful in genetic manipulation for further nuclear transfer and fish cloning.

유전독성물절외 검출과 평가에 용이하게 사용할 수 있는 모델 시스템의 개발 및 DNA 회복기작을 규명할 목적으로 수종의 돌연변이, 발암원을 이용하여 배양 포유동물세포 및 어류세포에서 세포생존률, DNA 합성 및 복제억제의 양상 등을 비교 분석하였다. MMS및 MNNG 와 같은 알칼라제는 CHO 세포에서 유의한 DNA 합성저해, DNA 복재억제, DNA 단사절단 및 비주기성 DNA 합성률의 증가를 유발하였다. Benzo(a)pyrene과 3-methylcholanthrene좌 같은 DNA 상해 전구물질의 경우 유전독성 여부의 판정에는 반드시 S-9/15과 같은 대사활성계 또는 mouse embryonic fibroblast와 같은 대사 활성능이 있는 세포와의 co-culture system들이 필요함을 확인하였으며, 이들에 의한 DNA 상해와 복재억제 유도의 작용양상은 자외선의 작용양상과 유사하였다. 배양 어류세포에서 자외선에 의한 세포생존율의 측정, 광재활성능의 분석 및 자외선에 의해 유발된 피리미딘 이량체 절제능 검토 및 DNA 합성 저해능의 결과를 분석함으로써 유전독성 평가를 위한 모델 시스템 구축의 기초결과를 얻었다.

The effect of dexamethasone injection on the burden of marine birnavirus (MABV) in asymptomatically infected olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) fingerlings was investigated. In real time PCR analysis, the threshold cycle (Ct) value of the fish injected with dexamethasone was significantly lower than that of the fish in the PBS-injected and no-handling groups. The higher amplification of the MABV gene in the dexamethasone-injected group than the 2 control groups was confirmed also by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The results indicate an increase of MABV burden in olive flounder fingerlings after a single injection with dexamethasone.

Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) contains a bi-segmented viral genome, RNA1 (3.4 kb, RdRp), and RNA2 (1.4 kb, capsid protein) in a small particle (25 nm). Despite its extremely compact size, NNV has caused serious damage by infecting approximately 120 fish species worldwide since it was first reported in the late 1980s. In order to minimize the damage caused by NNV infection and develop effective vaccines, it is necessary to understand the intra cellular signaling system according to NNV infection. NNV infection induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase via the p53-dependent pathway to use the cellular system for its replication. Otherwise, host cells recognize NNV infection through the RIG-1-like receptor (RLR) signaling pathway to control the virus and infected cells, and then ISGs required for antiviral action are activated via the IFN signaling pathway. Moreover, apoptosis of infected cells is triggered by the unfolded protein response (UPR) through ER stress and mitochondria-mediated cell death. Cell signaling studies on the NNV infection mechanisms are still at an early stage and many pathways have yet to be identified. Understanding the various disease-specific cellular signaling systems associated with NNV infection is essential for rapid and accurate diagnosis and vaccine development.
