Nutritional control of reproductive status in honeybees via DNA methylation.

Fertile queens and sterile workers are alternative forms of the adult female honeybee that develop from genetically identical larvae following differential feeding with royal jelly. We show that silencing the expression of DNA methyltransferase Dnmt3, a key driver of epigenetic global reprogramming, in newly hatched larvae led to a royal jelly-like effect on the larval developmental trajectory; the majority of Dnmt3 small interfering RNA-treated individuals emerged as queens with fully developed ...[more]

Larval application of sodium channel homologous dsRNA restores pyrethroid insecticide susceptibility in a resistant adult mosquito population

Project description:Mosquitoes host and pass on to humans a variety of disease-causing pathogens such as infectious viruses and other parasitic microorganisms. The emergence and spread of insecticide resistance is threatening the effectiveness of current control measures for common mosquito vector borne diseases, such as malaria, dengue and Zika. Therefore, the emerging resistance to the widely used pyrethroid insecticides is an alarming problem for public health. Among the new approaches implemented for pest control, one of the most promising is RNA interference (RNAi). The aim of this study was to provide a feasible RNAi solution that can be applied on wild pyrethroid resistant mosquito populations in the near future. To achieve this, high dsRNA efficacy at economic quantities is required. It is recognized that the sodium channel transcript variability governs its functional diversity including the emergence of insecticide resistance. Therefore, to maximize the RNAi effect, we tiled a number of overlapping dsRNA constructs that together target about half of the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) transcript variants annotated in this work. This strategy provided a refined dsRNA trigger that increased mortality with a three-fold decrease in dsRNA amounts compared to the primary VGSC dsRNA construct. Thus, we demonstrated the use of RNA interference (RNAi) to increase susceptibility of adult mosquitoes to a widely used pyrethroid insecticide. Small RNA sequences from 5 mosquitoes treated with Random or VGSC dsRNAs were generated using Illumina HiSeq 2500.

RNA-seq of Hml-SwitchGal4 induced pathway activation in Drosophila plasmatocytes

Project description:Drosophila carrying Hml-SwitchGal4 were crossed to different uas-constructs (uas-eGFP, uas-PGRP-LC, uas-hop, uas-tkvQD). 3rd instar larvae were either kept as control or SwitchGal4 was activated by hormone feeding for 24h. Afterwards plasmatocytes were extracted and subjected to RNA-seq.

Dynamic response in the larval geoduck clam proteome to elevated pCO2

Project description:Pacific geoduck (Panopea generosa) clams are found along the Northeast Pacific coast where they are significant components of coastal and estuarine ecosystems and the basis of a highly profitable aquaculture industry. The Pacific coastline, however, is also the sight of rapidly changing ocean habitat, including significant reductions in pH. To better understand the physiological impact of ocean acidification on geoduck clams, we characterized for the first time the proteomic profile of this bivalve during early larval development and compared it to that of larvae exposed to low pH.Geoduck larvae wer reared at pH 7.5 (ambient) or 7.1 in a commercial shellfish hatchery from day 6 to 19 post-fertilization , and sampled at six time points for an in-depth proteomics analysis using high-resolution data dependent analysis. We found that larvae reared at low pH were smaller than those reared at ambient pH, especially in the prodissoconch II phase of development, and displayed a delay in their competency for settlement. Proteomic profiles revealed that metabolic, cell cycle, and protein turnover pathways differed between the two pH, suggesting that differing phenotypic outcomes between pH 7.5 and 7.1 are likely due to environmental disruptions to the timing of molecular physiological events. In summary, ocean acidification likely caused an energetic stress on geoduck larvae, casuing a shift in physiological prioritization.

Peptide of Trichinella spiralis infective larval extract that harnesses growth of human hepatoma cells

Project description:This project aimed to explore novel anticancer therapeutics from products of parasite since several data related to benefits from the T. spiralis infection have been documented. We validated antitumor activity of T. spiralis infective larval extract and extricate the parasite-derived-antitumor peptide. We found that larval extract exerted antitumor activity to three types of carcinoma cells including hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2, ovarian cancer SK-OV-3, and lung adenocarcinoma A549. Interestingly, it displayed the most antitumor effect to HepG2 cells. Using proteomic and bioinformatic approaches, three putative anticancer peptides were identified from T. spiralis infective larval extract. One of these peptides showed a dose-dependent-anti-HepG2 effect by inducing ROS accumulation, leading to inhibition of the cell proliferation. Our data indicate potential application of the larval extract-derived antitumor peptide as a complementary agent for human hepatoma treatment and highlight a positive aspect of parasite apart from its deleterious effect.

MiRNAs in the genomes of Bombus terrestris and Bombus impatiens

Project description:Our aims in this study were: 1) to identify the miRNAs of the bumble bees Bombus terrestris and B. impatiens; 2) to compare the total numbers of miRNAs between both bumble bee species and between them and the honey bee, Apis mellifera; and 3) to test whether the sequences and expression patterns of miRNAs were conserved between species. To investigate each of these aims we used miRNA-seq (deep sequencing of miRNA-enriched libraries) in B. terrestris, and bioinformatics prediction programs to identify miRNAs in both Bombus species. We identified 131 miRNAs in B. terrestris, and 114 in B. impatiens; of these, 17 were new miRNAs that had not previously been sequenced in any species. We found a striking level of difference in the miRNAs present between Bombus and A. mellifera, with 103 miRNAs in A. mellifera not being present in the genomes of the two bumble bees. miRNA profiles of Bombus terrestris at two developmental stages in larvae. This submission represents 'Bombus terrestris' component of study.
