課程大綱Course Description:
Course provides an overview of the immune system in fish with emphasis on commercial aquaculture species. The student will learn about the different organs, cells and molecules and how these work and collaborate, and how cells and functions are regulated and stimulated. The students will develop knowledge about fish immune response during vaccination and immune stimulants in shrimp with emphasis on the immune prophylaxis for aquaculture species.
English Outline:
1. History of Fish immunology
2. Immune organs of fish
3. Inflammation
4. Innate immunity of fish
5. Key cells involved in fish innate immunity – leucocytes
6. Innate immune sensing in fish: Cell based
7. Humoral-based immune sensing in fish
8. Fish Cytokines and chemokines
9. Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) in fish
10. Antigen presentation
11. T-cell response in fish
12. Immunoglobulins of fish
13. B-cell response in fish
14. Hemocytes in shellfish and tissues of their immune system
15. Pathogen recognition receptors (PRR) of shellfish
16. ProPO in shellfish
17. Coagulation in shellfish
18. Anti-viral mechanisms in shellfish
本科目教學目標Course Objectives:
The aim of this course is to develop updated knowledge among students about the fish immune system, its interaction with fish pathogens and its responses to stimulation and vaccines. Certain crustaceans will also be included. This knowledge will be developed through lectures, group discussion, written assignment submissions, student presentations and through laboratory courses.
