摘要: Abstract The effects of silencing the mRNA cytosolic manganese superoxide dismutase (cMnSOD), an enzyme involved in antioxidant defense, were analyzed Whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei adults. Shrimp intramuscularly injected with long dsRNAs corresponding to N-terminal portion cMnSOD and held under normoxic conditions for 24 h. Another group shrimp was exposed hypoxia 6 h followed by reoxygenation 1 h. had lower transcripts gills hepatopancreas. In silenced (SOD) activity decreased but not subjected SOD hepatopancreas; production anion (O 2 − ) hemocytes also this group. Reoxygenation reverted effect increasing levels transcripts, O . These results suggest that contributes significantly hepatopancreas indicate its importance redox system regulation L.
