Water temperature significantly affects the physiological balance of aquatic organisms like crustaceans, and heat shock proteins (HSPs) are crucial for stress resistance and pathogen defense. This study conducted a genome-wide analysis to explore the functional characteristics of the Hsp70 gene family in Procambarus clarkii. Fifteen Hsp70 family members were identified, with several genes showing upregulation under non-lethal heat shock (NLHS) and pathogen challenges. RNA-Seq and qPCR analyses confirmed increased expression of certain PcHsp70s during NLHS, indicating NLHS activation of the Hsp70 family to enhance immune regulation. dsRNA-mediated silencing of Hsp70 led to downregulation of TLR pathway genes (e.g., TLR1, TLR6), suggesting Hsp70 regulates the TLR signaling pathway for immune responses. These findings reveal that NLHS-induced Hsp70 upregulation improves pathogen resistance, offering insights for addressing temperature fluctuations and disease outbreaks in aquaculture to optimize management practices.
