An iridovirus-like agent was tested for the first time in vitro on cell-mediated immunity in sheatfish (Silurus glanis). The influence of the iridovirus-like agent on pronephric macrophage metabolism was examined at two temperatures, 20 and 30 degrees C, by studying the respiratory burst activity stimulated by phorbol myristate acetate as well as the proliferative ability of lymphocytes stimulated by concanavalin A (ConA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) measured by MTT assay. The results showed that the iridovirus-like agent decreased the macrophage activity at incubation temperatures of 20 and 30 degrees C. The highest inhibitory effect was observed at 30 degrees C. The proliferative ability of pronephric lymphocytes had a similar pattern. The results showed that applying a virus at the same time or after the mitogen at 20 and 30 degrees C decreased the lymphocyte proliferation that was stimulated by either ConA or LPS. The highest suppressive effect was observed when virus was applied 14 h after the mitogen. This preliminary in vitro study demonstrated a strong suppressive influence of the iridovirus-like agent on pronephric macrophage and lymphocyte activity in sheatfish.
