Partial cDNA sequences of the Pf_C8\u03b1, Pf_C8\u03b2 and Pf_C9 genes (Pf: abbreviation of Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) were cloned from yellow catfish. The Pf_C8\u03b1, Pf_C8\u03b2 and Pf_C9 genes showed the greatest amino acid similarity to C8\u03b1 (54%) and C8\u03b2 (62%) of zebrafish and to C9 (52%) of grass carp, respectively. Ontogenetic expression analyses using real-time quantitative PCR suggested that the three genes may play crucial roles during embryonic and early larval development. The mRNA expressions of the three genes were all at the highest levels in liver tissue, and at lower or much lower levels in 16 other tissues, demonstrating that the liver is the primary site for the protein synthesis of Pf_C8\u03b1, Pf_C8\u03b2 and Pf_C9. Injection of Aeromonas hydrophila led to up-regulation of the three genes in the spleen, head kidney, kidney, liver and blood tissues, indicating that the three genes may contribute to the host\u2019s defense against invading pathogenic microbes. An increased understanding of the functions of the Pf_C8\u03b1, Pf_C8\u03b2 and Pf_C9 genes in the innate immunity of yellow catfish will help enhance production of this valuable freshwater species.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms17030345","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,8]],"date-time":"2016-03-08T10:14:25Z","timestamp":1457432065000},"page":"345","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Molecular Characterization and Expression Analyses of the Complement Component C8\u03b1, C8\u03b2 and C9 Genes in Yellow Catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco) after the Aeromonas hydrophila Challenge"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Huan","family":"Zheng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Animal Breeding, Ministry of Agriculture, College of Fisheries, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wei","family":"Ji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Animal Breeding, Ministry of Agriculture, College of Fisheries, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gui-Rong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Animal Breeding, Ministry of Agriculture, College of Fisheries, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiao-Ting","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Animal Breeding, Ministry of Agriculture, College of Fisheries, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ze-Chao","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Biodiversity Conservation, Ministry of Agriculture, Yangtze River Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kai-Jian","family":"Wei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Animal Breeding, Ministry of Agriculture, College of Fisheries, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rui-Bin","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Animal Breeding, Ministry of Agriculture, College of Fisheries, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jonathan","family":"Gardner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Freshwater Animal Breeding, Ministry of Agriculture, College of Fisheries, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"Freshwater Aquaculture Collaborative Innovation Center of Hubei Province, Wuhan 430070, China"},{"name":"School of Biological Sciences, Victoria University of Wellington, P O Box 600, Wellington 6140, New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"981","DOI":"10.1038\/ni1113","article-title":"The complement system in regulation of adaptive immunity","volume":"5","author":"Carroll","year":"2004","journal-title":"Nat.
