Proposed model. E. tarda infection causes tilapia death through virulence factors and septic shock-associated oxidative stress. The oxidative stress could be relieved by serine, which fluxes into the glutathione metabolism to reduce ROS production. Glutathione antagonized the ROS, thereby protecting host death from overactive immune responses like ROS.
