Expression of distinct corticosteroid receptor genes, glucocorticoid receptors 1 and 2 (GR-1 and GR-2, respectively) and mineralcorticoid receptor (MR), was quantified by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in peripheral blood leucocytes (PBL), spleen, and gill of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after an acute netting stress. Plasma cortisol levels were significantly increased 2 h after stress and returned to prestress levels within 24 h. Consistent with changes in plasma cortisol, GR-2 mRNA levels in PBL increased significantly at 2 h after stress, returning to initial levels by 8 h. In contrast, GR-1 and MR levels in PBL decreased significantly at 24 h after stress, and these reduced levels were maintained for 7 days. Splenic mRNA levels of GR-1 and GR-2 also decreased at 8 h and 24 h after stress, returning to control levels by 7 days, whereas no significant change was observed in MR. In gill, there was no obvious change in corticosteroid receptor mRNA levels after stress, except for a transient decrease at 8 h in MR. These results suggest a variety of roles for the three corticosteroid receptors during immunosuppression in response to acute stress in trout.

CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBPs) are transcription factors consisting of six isoforms and play diverse physiological roles in vertebrates. In rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), in addition to the reported C/EBPβ1, we have isolated cDNA of four other isoforms, C/EBPα, C/EBPβ2, C/EBPδ1, C/EBPδ2, from the liver. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence of rainbow trout C/EBPs with those of other vertebrates revealed that C/EBP isoforms are highly conserved. The profiles of tissue-specific expression of individual C/EBP isoform mRNA, determined by quantitative real-time (RT)-PCR showed distinct patterns. Furthermore, injection of bovine GH into yearling rainbow trout resulted in a significant increase of mRNA levels of C/EBPβ1, C/EBPβ2, and C/EBPδ2 but not C/EBPα and C/EBPδ1 in the liver. GH-dependent increase of mRNA levels of C/EBPβ1, C/EBPβ2, C/EBPδ2, and IGF-II were also confirmed by treating rainbow trout hepatoma cells expressing a goldfish GH receptor with bGH. Together with our previous findings, the results presented in this paper strengthen our previous hypothesis that GH may regulate the expression of the IGF-II gene via mediating the expression of C/EBPβ1, C/EBPβ2, and C/EBPδ2 mRNA.
