C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid P (SAP) play essential roles in the phagocytic cell-mediated innate immune response of mammals. In-depth studies into CRP and SAP have been completed in mammals; however, such studies, particularly those relating to the functions of CRP and SAP, are rare in fish species. In this study, a homolog of CRP/SAP (BpCRP/SAP) was identified in mudskipper (Boleophthalmus pectinirostris), which had the typical characteristics of a fish short pentraxin protein. Phylogenetic tree analysis revealed that BpCRP/SAP was most closely related to mudskipper CRP/SAP-l3. BpCRP/SAP transcripts were detected in all tested tissues, with the highest level observed in the liver; transcripts in the immune tissues and protein expression in the serum were induced in response toEdwardsiella tardainfection. The active recombinant BpCRP/SAP (rBpCRP/SAP) was able to augment the mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and attenuate the mRNA expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines in monocytes/macrophages (MO/MΦ). In addition, phagocytosis and bacterial killing ofE. tardaby mudskipper MO/MΦ were boosted by rBpCRP/SAP stimulation. rBpCRP/SAP also promoted M1-type MO/MΦ polarization, but inhibited M2-type polarization. In conclusion, the present research describes the pro-inflammatory function of BpCRP/SAP in mudskipper againstE. tardainfection.
