SQSTM1/p62 knockdown induces transcriptomic changes and hepatopancreatic structural alterations in Litopenaeus vannamei.
SQSTM1/p62 is a multifunctional adaptor protein involved in selective autophagy, oxidative stress regulation and innate immune signaling. However, its role in crustaceans in the absence of an experimental pathogen challenge remains largely unclear. In this study, RNA interference (RNAi) was used to investigate the tran...
