摘要： The effects of oral administration of enrofloxacin (ENR) and San-Huang-San (SHS), singly or in combination, on the survival performance, disease resistance, and immunity of Litopenaeus vannamei were investigated. After challenge with an AHPND-causing strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VPAHPND), shrimp were immediately fed a drug-free diet, diets containing only ENR (20 mgkg(-1)) or SHS (500 mg.kg(-1)) or diets containing low-dose (10 mg.kg(-1) ENR + 250 mg. kg(-1) SHS), medium-dose (20 mg.kg(-1) ENR + 500 mg kg(-1) SHS), and high-dose (40 mg.kg(-1) ENR + 1000 mg.kg(-1) SHS) drug combinations for 5 days. The cumulative shrimp mortality over 5 days after injection of VPAHPND in the ENR + SHS combination groups was significantly lower than that in the ENR or SHS alone groups (p < 0.05). Immune parameters, including the vibrio density, total hemocyte counts (THCs), hemocyanin (HEM) concentration, antibacterial activity, activity levels of lysozyme (LZM), acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (AKP), and phenoloxidase (PO) in cell-free hemolymph, and the expression levels of the immune-related genes anti-lipopolysaccharide factor (ALF), cathepsin B (catB), crustin, lectin (Lec), lysozyme (LZM), and Toll-like receptor (TLR) in hemocytes were determined in the shrimp. The results showed that the shrimp in drug combination groups cleared more VPAHPND than that in the ENR or SHS group in the same time. The values for other immune parameters in the drug combination groups were higher than those in the ENR or SHS group (p < 0.05). Finally, in the histological examinations, the histological structural alignment and integrity of the hepatopancreatic tubules in the drug combination groups were better than that in the ENR and SHS groups. Under the experimental conditions, compared with ENR or SHS used alone, the combination use of ENR and SHS could improve immunity and disease resistance in shrimp after VPAHPND infection, and could reduce the use of ENR when the better therapeutic effect was achieved.
