摘要： Thymosin beta 4 is a multifunctional protein in vertebrates that participates in physiological processes, such as wound healing, immune response, cell proliferation and migration. We assessed the multifarious roles of this small peptide in Pinctada fucata, an oyster commonly used in pearl culture in China. Our results showed that when P. fucata was challenged by bacterial pathogens or LPS, the relative expression level of Pfthymosin beta 4 mRNA was significantly up-regulated, suggesting its involvement in immune response of the animal. Recombinant Pfthymosin beta 4 (rPfthymosin beta 4) was produced and showed in vitro different antibacterial activities against different pathogenic bacteria; the inhibitory effect of rPfthymosin beta 4 on bacterial growth was relatively stronger in the broth culture than agar culture. The overexpression of Pfthymosin beta 4 in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) cells could improve their resistance to Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, and H2O2, suggesting that Pfthymosin beta 4 is likely involved with antioxidant. rPfthymosin beta 4 also significantly promoted the proliferation and migration of mouse aortic vascular smooth muscle cells as indicated by MTT assay and cell scratch assay, respectively. In addition, chemically synthesized or recombinant Pfthymosin beta 4 could transiently increase the circulating total hemocytes counts but down-regulated by RNAi in P. fucata. Taking together above results and previous studies suggested that Pfthymosin beta 4 is potentially able to promote wound healing through enhancing antibacterial activity and antioxidant capacity, promotion of cell proliferation and migration, and increase of circulating hemocytes in P. fucata due to nucleus implantation injury. Thus, the future of recombinant Pfthymosin beta 4 should be promising in the culture of pearls in P. fucata.
