TLDR
This review summarizes the current state of knowledge pertaining to V. anguillarum, focusing on pathogenesis, known virulence factors, diagnosis, prevention and treatment.Abstract:
Vibrio anguillarum, also known as Listonella anguillarum, is the causative agent of vibriosis, a deadly haemorrhagic septicaemic disease affecting various marine and fresh/brackish water fish, bivalves and crustaceans. In both aquaculture and larviculture, this disease is responsible for severe economic losses worldwide. Because of its high morbidity and mortality rates, substantial research has been carried out to elucidate the virulence mechanisms of this pathogen and to develop rapid detection techniques and effective disease-prevention strategies. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge pertaining to V. anguillarum, focusing on pathogenesis, known virulence factors, diagnosis, prevention and treatment.read more

TL;DR: Control measures, particularly a disease-free source of fish, biosecurity of the farm, improved water quality, and other preventive measures (e.g., vaccination) might be able to control the infection.

Comparative skin mucus and serum humoral defence mechanisms in the teleost gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata)
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that gilthead seabream skin mucus contains lower levels of IgM, similar levels of lysozyme, alkaline phosphatase and proteases, and higher esterase, peroxidase and antiprotease activities than serum, while human bacteria can even grow more in the presence of mucus.

Innate immunity of fish (overview).
TL;DR: The innate immune system is the only defence weapon of invertebrates and a fundamental defence mechanism of fish and plays an instructive role in the acquired immune response and homeostasis and is therefore equally important in higher vertebrates.

Accelerated reaction by loop-mediated isothermal amplification using loop primers.
TL;DR: The LAMP method presented here uses loop primers to achieve reaction times of less than half that of the original LAMP, which should facilitate genetic analysis, including genetic diagnosis in the clinical laboratory.

Impact of 16S rRNA Gene Sequence Analysis for Identification of Bacteria on Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases
TL;DR: A future challenge is to translate information from 16S rRNA gene sequencing into convenient biochemical testing schemes, making the accuracy of the genotypic identification available to the smaller and routine clinical microbiology laboratories.
