Abstract
Polyvalent antibodies can resist multiple bacterial species, and immunoglobulin Y (IgY) antibody can be economically prepared in large quantities from egg yolk; further, IgY polyvalent antibodies have application value in aquaculture. The outer membrane proteins (OMPs) PF1380 and ExbB of Pseudomonas fluorescens were expressed and purified, and the corresponding IgY antibodies were prepared. PF1380, ExbB, and the corresponding IgY antibodies could activate the innate immune responses of chicken and Carassius auratus. The passive immunization to C. auratus showed that the IgY antibodies of PF1380 and ExbB had an immune protection rate, down-regulated the expression of antioxidant-related factors (MDA, SOD, GSH-Px, and CAT) to reduce the antioxidant reaction, down-regulated the expression of inflammation-related genes (IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-1β) to reduce the inflammatory reaction, maintained the integrity of visceral tissue structure, and reduced apoptosis and damage of tissue cells in relation to P. fluorescens and Aeromonas hydrophila infections. Thus, the IgY antibodies of PF1380 and ExbB could be considered as passive polyvalent vaccine candidates in aquaculture.
