Yersinia ruckeri flagellin is a potent activator of fish pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Y. ruckeri flagellin also activates acute phase proteins and antimicrobial peptides.
Paralogues of trout inflammatory genes are differentially activated by flagellin.
IFN-γ pretreament modulates flagellin-mediated inflammatory responses.
IFN-γ pretreament promotes the expression of specific IL-12 isoforms in rainbow trout.
