Hepcidin, a multifunctional hormone oligopeptide, not only exhibits a regulatory role in iron metabolism, but also participates in the regulation of teleostean immunity. In this study, ORF sequence of WR-hepcidin was 258 bp and encoded 85 amino acid residues. Tissue-specific analysis revealed that the highest expression of WR-hepcidin was observed in liver. Aeromonas hydrophila challenge can sharply increased WR-hepcidin mRNA expression in liver, trunk kidney and spleen. The purified WR-hepcidin fusion peptide can directly bind to A. hydrophila and Streptococcus agalactiae, reduce the relative bacterial activity, limit bacterial growth and attenuate their dissemination to tissues in vivo. In addition, the treatment of WR-hepcidin fusion protein can diminish the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. These results indicated that WR-hepcidin can play a negative regulatory role in bacteria-stimulated pro-inflammatory cytokines production and MyD88-IRAK4 activation.
