• The Atlantic Salmon Gill Transcriptome Response in a Natural Outbreak of Salmon Gill Pox Virus Infection Reveals New Biomarkers of Gill Pathology and Suppression of Mucosal Defense 

      Gjessing, Mona Cecilie; Krasnov, Aleksei; Timmerhaus, Gerrit; Brun, Svante; Afanasyev, Sergey; Dale, Ole Bendik; Dahle, Maria (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-04)
      The salmon gill poxvirus (SGPV) is a large DNA virus that infects gill epithelial cells in Atlantic salmon and is associated with acute high mortality disease outbreaks in aquaculture. The pathological effects of SGPV infection include gill epithelial apoptosis in the acute phase of the disease and hyperplasia of gill epithelial cells in surviving fish, causing damage to the gill respiratory surface. ...

    • First record of experimentally induced salmon gill poxvirus disease (SGPVD) in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)

      Salmon gill poxvirus (SGPV) infection is a common denominator in many cases of complex gill disease in the Norwegian salmon farming industry and may, as a single agent infection, result in salmon poxvirus disease (SGPVD). Experiences from the field suggest that stress may be a decisive factor for the induction of SGPVD. Here we investigated the effect of stress hormone treatment on SGPV kinetics and ...
    • Fish Skin and Gill Mucus: A Source of Metabolites for Non-Invasive Health Monitoring and Research 

      Ivanova, Lada; Rangel-Huerta, Oscar Daniel; Tartor, Haitham; Gjessing, Mona Cecilie; Dahle, Maria; Uhlig, Silvio (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-31)
      Mucous membranes such as the gill and skin mucosa in fish protect them against a multitude of environmental factors. At the same time, changes in the molecular composition of mucus may provide valuable information about the interaction of the fish with their environment, as well as their health and welfare. In this study, the metabolite profiles of the plasma, skin and gill mucus of freshwater ...
    • Genotyping of Salmon Gill Poxvirus Reveals One Main Predominant Lineage in Europe, Featuring Fjord- and Fish Farm-Specific Sub-Lineages 

      Gulla, Snorre; Tengs, Torstein; Mohammad, Saima; Gjessing, Mona Cecilie; Garseth, Åse Helen; Sveinsson, Karoline Overn; Moldal, Torfinn; Petersen, Petra; Tørud, Brit; Dale, Ole Bendik; Dahle, Maria (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-29)
      Salmon gill poxvirus (SGPV) can cause serious gill disease in Atlantic salmon (<i>Salmo salar</i> L.) and represents a significant problem to aquaculture industries in Northern Europe. Here, a single-tube multi-locus variable-number tandem-repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) genotyping assay, targeting eight VNTR loci, was developed for studying the epizootiology of SGPV. Through MLVA typing of SGPV ...
    • Mucosal and Systemic Immune Responses to Salmon Gill Poxvirus Infection in Atlantic Salmon Are Modulated Upon Hydrocortisone Injection 

      Amundsen, Marit Måsøy; Tartor, Haitham; Andersen, Kathrine; Sveinsson, Karoline Overn; Thoen, Even; Gjessing, Mona Cecilie; Dahle, Maria (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-09)
      Salmon Gill Poxvirus Disease (SGPVD) has emerged as a cause of acute mortality in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) presmolts in Norwegian aquaculture. The clinical phase of the disease is associated with apoptotic cell death in the gill epithelium causing acute respiratory distress, followed by proliferative changes in the regenerating gill in the period after the disease outbreak. In an ...

    • Røde blodceller - er de sensorer for laksens helsetilstand? 

      Dahle, Maria; Gjessing, Mona Cecilie; Tsoulia, Thomais (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-11)
      Det er ikke tvil om at røde blodceller er livsviktige, siden de forsyner kroppen med oksygen, og laksens blodceller frakter oksygen kanskje enda mer effektivt enn våre blodceller gjør. Men det er ikke det eneste de røde blodcellene i laksen kan. De har en cellekjerne som kan uttrykke en mengde gener - de har sensorer for virus og stresshormoner og mye mer - og får signaler fra ...
