How do organisms respond adaptively to environmental stress? Although some gene-specific responses have been explored, others remain to be identified, and there is a very poor understanding of the system-wide integration of response, particularly in complex, multitissue animals. Here, we adopt a transcript screening approach to explore the mechanisms underpinning a major, whole-body phenotypic transition in a vertebrate animal that naturally experiences extreme environmental stress. Carp were ex ...[more]

Project description:Dominance hierarchies of rainbow trout Trout form linear dominance hierarchies where there is a dominant, subdominant and subordinate. The dominant is the most aggressive, followed by the subdominant and the subordinate is the least dominant. Fish were scored on their aggressive performance to calculate position within the hierarchy, and once formed the hierarchies are very stable. Hypothesis: Gene expression is different in the brains of individuals with different dominance status. Six hierarchies containing a dominant, subdominant and subordinate were assessed behaviourally then killed and the brain removed. These were run in a reference based design. Hypothesis: On removal of the dominant the subdominant fish will become dominant and its transcript profile will become similar to the established dominant. The second experiment involved removing the dominant from an established hierarchy and then examining gene expression at 2hr, 48hr and 1 week in the new dominant.

Project description:The variability of the marine intertidal environment poses unique challenges for sessile species. Diurnal, tidal, and seasonal cycles introduce drastic variations in temperature, salinity, availability of nutrients and water. The California ribbed mussel Mytilus californianus is a filter feeder that dominates a middle range of the intertidal of many wave-swept rocky shores. The bivalve attaches to the substrate by several byssal threads. This sessile lifestyle allows us to accurately document the thermal history of an individual. We have profiled gene expression in M. californianus during a natural tidal cycle using a cDNA microarray composed of genes from mussels exposed to various stressors. Over three days, mussels were sampled from two sites differing in emersion exposure and average temperature. At each time point, three mussels were cut open in the field and frozen immediately on dry ice and stored at -80 degrees C until the gill, hepatopancreas, and adductor muscle were excised and processed for RNA extraction, reverse transcription, and hybridization to our microarrays. The resulting expression profile showed that genes involved in the cell cycle were diurnally regulated, heat shock proteins increased with temperature, and expression of several hundred other genes varied across the tidal cycle. Tide series (times and tide height): 26th July, low tide 0052, 0.8 ft; high tide 0705, 3.1 ft; low tide 1113, 2.4 ft; high tide 1810, 5.9ft. 27th July, low tide 0154, 0.1 ft; high tide 0837, 3.3 ft; low tide 1216, 2.7ft; high tide 1903, 6.2 ft. 28th July, low tide 0249, -0.6ft; high tide 0943, 3.5 ft; low tide 1323, 2.8ft; high tide 1903, 6.2ft. 15th Aug, low tide 0530, 0.26 ft; high tide 1200, 4.08 ft, low tide 0432, 2.65 ft; high tide 1036, 5.84 ft.

Project description:Common carp (~0.5kg) previously held for over 3 months at 25°C were randomly placed into two large aquarium tanks, one which remained throughout at 25°C (control) and the other that was cooled over 3 days to 11°C and held for 23 days. Replicate specimens from both tanks were then killed at up to 17 timepoints after cooling, kidney tissue was sampled, and transcript expression as a function of time after cooling determined by RNA-seq.

Project description:A high-density oligonucleotide microarray for channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) was designed and produced with Maskless Array Synthesizer technology (MAS). The microarray contained ~379,652 24-mer oligonucleotides covering ~18,999 catfish unique sequences. The global expression profiling of the catfish spleens stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 2h, 4h, 8h and 24h was investigated with the microarray. In the spleen samples, 409 genes were identified to be induced or repressed greater than 2-fold by LPS treatment. Self-organizing maps (SOM) clustering analysis was applied to interpret gene expression patterns, and 84 of these genes were clustered into six expression patterns. Real-time RT-PCR was used to verify the microarray results for 9 selected genes representing different expression levels. The results from real-time RT-PCR were positively correlated (R^2 = 0.87) with the results from the microarray. Channel catfish were injected with LPS or PBS carrier. Fish were killed by anesthesia overdose at 2, 4, 8, or 24h post-injection and total RNA was isolated from spleen. The experiment contained two replicate fish per time point. Relative signal intensities for each feature were generated using the Robust Multi-Array Average algorithm and log2 transformed. Transformed data were then processed using quantile normalization, and the average and std. error for each gene were calculated from the 10 perfectly matched oligos only. After detransformation, the ratio (fold change) was calculated using PBS treated samples (control) as the baseline against LPS-treated samples.

Project description:Domesticated animal populations often show profound reductions in predator avoidance and fear-related behavior compared to wild populations. These reductions are remarkably consistent and have been observed in a diverse array of taxa including fish, birds, and mammals. Experiments conducted in common environments indicate that these behavioral differences have a genetic basis. In this study, we quantified differences in fear-related behavior between wild and domesticated zebrafish strains and used microarray analysis to identify genes that may be associated with this variation. Compared to wild zebrafish, domesticated zebrafish spent more time near the water surface and were more likely to occupy the front of the aquarium nearest a human observer. Microarray analysis of the brain transcriptome identified high levels of population variation in gene expression, with 1,749 genes significantly differentially expressed among populations. Genes that varied among populations belonged to functional categories that included DNA repair, DNA photolyase activity, response to light stimulus, neuron development and axon guidance, cell death, iron-binding, chromatin reorganization, and homeobox genes. Comparatively fewer genes (112) differed between domesticated and wild strains with notable genes including gpr177 (wntless), selenoprotein P1a, synaptophysin and synaptoporin, and acyl-CoA binding domain containing proteins (acbd3 and acbd4). Microarray analysis identified a large number of genes that differed among zebrafish populations and may underlie behavioral domestication. Comparisons with similar microarray studies of domestication in rainbow trout and canids identified sixteen evolutionarily or functionally related genes that may represent components of shared molecular mechanisms underlying convergent behavioral evolution during vertebrate domestication. However, this conclusion must be tempered by limitations associated with comparisons among microarray studies and the low level of population-level replication inherent to these studies. RNA was extracted from the brains of fish from four behaviorally distinct strains of zebrafish and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. Brains from 2-5 individual fish of the same sex were pooled and homogenized together, for a total of two biological replicate pools per sex per strain (16 microarrays total).

Project description:We report the proteomic characterization of livers from Sparus aurata exposed to cold temperatures. In this study, mimicking the winter challenge conditions, a 8 week feeding trial was carried out on gilthead sea bream juveniles reared in RAS systems at a temperature ramp made of two phases of four weeks each: a cooling phase from 18°C 8 (t0) to 11°C (t1) and a cold maintenance phase at 11°C (t2). Sparus aurata livers, after exposure to the three temperature phases (t0, t1 and t2), were collected and analyzed using a shotgun proteomics approach based on filter-aided sample preparation followed by tandem mass spectrometry, peptide identification carried out using Sequest-HT as search engine within the Proteome Discoverer informatic platform, and label-free differential analysis. Along the whole trial, sea breams underwent several changes occurring upon thermal stress in liver protein abundance. These occurred mostly during the cooling phase, when catabolic processes were mainly observed. These included protein and lipid degradation and a decrease in protein synthesis and amino acid metabolism. A decrease in protein mediators of oxidative stress protection was also seen. Liver protein profiles showed less marked changes during cold maintenance, although pathways such as the methionine cycle and sugar metabolism were significantly affected. This study provided useful hints on the dynamics and extent of the metabolic shift occurring in sea bream liver with decreasing water temperature, helping the development of feeds aimed at compensating the thermal stress encountered by fish in offshore farming conditions.

Project description:Animal and epidemiological studies suggest that lycopene and fish oil may modify the risk or delay progression of prostate cancer, however, the molecular mechanisms involved are poorly understood. We examined the effects of these micronutrients on prostate gene expression in a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial (Molecular Effects of Nutritional Supplements, MENS). Eighty-four men with low risk prostate cancer were stratified based on self-reported dietary consumption of fish and tomatoes and then randomly assigned to a 3-month intervention of lycopene (intervention B; n = 29) or fish oil (intervention C; n = 27) supplementation or placebo (intervention A; n = 28). Gene expression in morphologically normal prostate tissue was studied at baseline and at 3 months via cDNA microarray analysis. Differential gene expression and pathway analyses were performed to identify genes and pathways modulated by dietary intake of fish or tomato or by lycopene or fish oil supplementation.

Project description:In mammals, increasing data suggests that there exists a complex and bi-directional relationship between thyroid and immune systems. However the existence of such interactions in fish is unknown. Here, we administered the biologically active hormone 3.3�.5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) and the anti-thyroid drug, propilthiouracil (PTU) to juvenile rainbow trout and examined the head kidney expression profile with a custom-made microarray enriched in immune-related genes. A seven day-experiment was performed. Fish were divided in 3 groups. First group received 20 µg/g fish feed of T3; second group received 5000 µg/g fish feed of PTU; third group served as control. After 7 days orally administering T3 or PTU, differentially expressed transcript levels from selected immune-related rainbow trout genes were studied in head kidney. Three groups were studied (T3-treated, PTU treated and control), each group having 4 biological replicates (each replicate consisting of 2 pooled fish).
