摘要： The gastric sieve (GS) is a filtering structure found in the posterior stomach chamber (PSC) of Litopenaeus vannamei, which allows small particles to enter the hepatopancreas directly. However, it remains unclear if pathogens can also enter the hepatopancreas through this pathway. In this study, we examined the internal structural changes of the PSC via histological and ultra-structure analysis. We also orally administered fluorescent microspheres and bioparticles (Vibrio parahaemolyticus and WSSV) of varying sizes to shrimp to determine their passage under hypoxia stress. The results showed that the PSC could be divided into four segments based on structural changes, and the GS performed its filtering function through two kinds of setae with different morphologies. Under normal dissolved oxygen levels (approximately 7.6 mg/L), V. parahaemolyticus and 1 mu m fluorescent microspheres were unable to enter the hepatopancreas via GS. In contrast, under hypoxia stress (1.5-2 mg/L), both vibrio and 1 mu m fluorescent microspheres could enter the hepatopancreas via GS in a short timeframe. WSSV and 0.1 mu m fluorescent microspheres could enter the hepatopancreas via GS irrespective of hypoxia stress, while 5 mu m fluorescent microspheres could not enter the hepatopancreas via GS even under hypoxia. These results suggest that GS functions as a particle diameter-dependent filter, with its filtering function influenced by hypoxia stress. Pathogens around 1 mu m in size can invade the hepatopancreas through this pathway under hypoxia stress, providing novel insights into the mechanisms of pathogen invasion in shrimp.
