Transcriptional profiles of adult Schistosoma japonicum in response to insulin


ABSTRACT: To define the differential gene regulation of adult Schistosoma japonicum in response to host insulin, we utilised a parasite microarray with 38,444 probes representing 19,222 genes. We cultured male and female adult worms were exposed to insulin and glucose; and then parasites were collected at three time-points. There were 1,437 probes (1101 genes) up or down regulated (±1.5 fold change) by insulin after 0.5, 3, 24 hours, with the majority, 712 probes (577 genes) and 623 probes (486 genes) were up-regulated at 24 hour of adding insulin in males and females respectively compared with the control (without insulin). Single colour microarray, insulin treated adult Schistosoma japonicum with technical replicates in duplicate: Separate male and female worms exposed to insulin at 0, 0.5, 3, 24 hours. This study includes 6 control samples for separate male and female worms cultured without insulin at 0, 0.5, 3, 24 hours.

Microarray analysis was used to investigate differential gene regulation in adult male and female Schistosoma japonicum cultured in the presence or absence of insulin in vitro. A total of 1,101 genes were up- or down-regulated in response to insulin, the majority of differential expression occurring 24h after the addition of insulin to the cultures. Genes differentially expressed in male or female worms were predominantly involved in growth and development, with significant sex-specific differen  ...[more]
