Six hours after infection, the metabolic changes induced by WSSV neutralise the host's oxidative stress defenses
Levels of intracellular ROS (reactive oxygen species) were significantly increased in hemocytes collected from WSSV-infected shrimp within the first 30–120min after infection. Measurement of the NADPH/ NADP+ and GSH/GSSG ratios revealed tha ...
