The long-term impact of anthropopressure, environmental pollution and diseases have led to a risk of extinction. The aim of the present study was to determine the influence of Anguillid herpesvirus-1 infection on the innate immunity of European eel from natural conditions. Spleen phagocyte respiratory burst activity and potential killing activity, as well as pronephros lymphocyte proliferation stimulated by concanavalin A or lipopolysaccharide were measured. The analyses of the results showed that all studied parameters were significantly higher (P<0.05) in AngHV-1-negative fish compared to the ones where the presence of viral DNA was confirmed.}, type={Short Communications}, title={Immunosuppressive influence of Anguillid herpesvirus-1 (AngHV-1) infection on cellular defense mechanisms in European eel (Anguilla anguilla)}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/114791/PDF/20.pdf}, doi={10.24425/pjvs.2019.131410}, keywords={alloherpesviruses, cellular immunity, immunosuppression, innate immunity}, }
