Project description:Fish gills are not only the respiratory organ, but also essential for ion-regulation, acid-base control, detoxification, waste excretion and host defense. Multifactorial gill diseases are common in farmed Atlantic salmon, and still poorly understood. Understanding gill pathophysiology is of paramount importance, but the sacrifice of large numbers of experimental animals for this purpose should be avoided. Therefore, in vitro models, such as cell lines, are urgently required to replace fish trials. An Atlantic salmon gill epithelial cell line, ASG-10, was established at the Norwegian Veterinary institute in 2018. This cell line forms a monolayer expressing cytokeratin, e-cadherin and desmosomes, hallmarks of a functional epithelial barrier. To determine the value of ASG-10 for comparative studies of gill functions, the characterization of ASG-10 was taken one step further by performing functional assays and comparing the cell proteome and transcriptome with those of gills from juvenile freshwater Atlantic salmon. The ASG-10 cell line appear to be a homogenous cell line consisting of epithelial cells, which express tight junction proteins. We demonstrated that ASG-10 forms a barrier, both alone and in co-culture with the Atlantic salmon gill fibroblast cell line ASG- 13. ASG-10 cells can phagocytose and express several ATP-binding cassette transport proteins. Additionally, ASG-10 expresses genes involved in biotransformation of xenobiotics and immune responses. Taken together, this study provides an overview of functions that can be studied using ASG-10, which will be an important contribution to in vitro gill epithelial research of Atlantic salmon.

Project description:To identify genes involved in the developmental process of Atlantic salmon smoltification, gene expression was compared between smolt and parr in tissues involved in osmoregulation (gill), metabolism (liver), imprinting (olfactory rosettes) and neuroendocrine control (hypothalamus and pituitary). Tissue samples were harvested from laboratory-reared parr and smolts on the same date. Smolts were distinguished from parr by size and appearance; developmental status was confirmed by physiological assays. Eight biological replicates (16 fish) balanced for sex and for dye were used in the liver, gill, olfactory rosette, and hypothalamus comparisons. Four male parr were compared to four male smolts and four female parr were compared to four female smolts; smolts were labeled with Alexa Fluor 555 on four arrays and with Alexa Fluor 647 on four arrays. Six biological replicates (12 fish) were used for the pituitary comparison (two female and four male).

Project description:Atlantic cod (~70 g) were exposed to water temperatures of 12 and 17 degrees Celsius (flow-through system), then half the fish in each temperature group were infected with Francisella noatunensis (injection). Fish were sampled prior to temperature challenge, when water temp reached 17 degrees, and five weeks after infection. The left section of the olfactory organ was collected on RNAlater for RNA isolation and sequencing.

Project description:Exposure to environmental contaminants like nonylphenol can disrupt smolt development and may be a contributing factor in salmon population declines. We used GRASP 16K cDNA microarrays to identify genes that are differentially expressed in the liver, gill, hypothalamus, pituitary, and olfactory rosettes of Atlantic salmon smolts treated with nonylphenol compared to control smolts. Nonylphenol treatment was confirmed using physiological assays: nonylphenol-treatment significantly decreased gill Na+,K+-ATPase activity and plasma cortisol and T3 levels. Microarray analyses were used to compare expression in nonylphenol-injected fish with expression in vehicle-injected fish: eight arrays each for liver, gill, olfactory rosettes, hypothalamus, and pituitary tissues. Total RNA was isolated from the tissues of eight nonylphenol-injected fish (six males and two females) and eight vehicle-injected fish (two males and six females) and reverse transcribed separately (not pooled); each slide represents a biological replicate. For each tissue, the eight arrays were balanced for dye: nonylphenol-injected fish were labeled with Alexa Fluor 555 and vehicle-injected fish were labeled with Alexa Fluor 647 on four slides, nonylphenol-injected fish were labeled with Alexa Fluor 647 and vehicle-injected fish were labeled with Alexa Fluor 555 on four slides. Liver, gill, hypothalamus, pituitary, and olfactory rosette tissues were analyzed separately.

Project description:The anadromous Atlantic salmon undergo preparatory physiological transformations before seawater entry, referred to as smoltification. Little is known about the photoperiod-influence and genome regulatory processes driving smoltification such as the large scale changes in lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis in the developing smolt liver. To shed light on this, we performed a smoltification trial using contrasting photoperiod regimes and generate a transcriptome data from livers throughout smoltification and after seawater transfer. In this experiment two groups of Atlantic salmon were reared for a total of 46 weeks from the parr stage, through smoltification, and seawater transfer. After 21 week from first feeding, the experiment group was given artificial winter photoperiod (8 hours light, 16 hours dark) for 8 weeks to induce smoltification before returning to constant light. The second control group received constant light throughout the experiment. Liver tissue was sampled from individuals first at week 1, 21 weeks after first feeding, then again at week 10, after the winter period, at week 19, after the expected smoltification time, and lastly at week 25, after transfer to seawater.

Project description:The evolutionary origin of vertebrate type 2 immunity is a topic of great interest. Several studies have focused on the immune cell components of evolutionary older vertebrates such as fish. However, how fish cytokines function and whether they have similar roles as in mammals is still a matter of speculation. Here, we have used the zebrafish (Danio rerio) to gain insights into il4/13a and il4/13b genes and characterized their role under both homeostatic and inflammatory conditions. We established knockouts for both il4/13a and il4/13b genes and showed that they are needed to suppress inflammation in larvae and in the gill mucosa. As a counterpoint, we examined the gills of il10 defective zebrafish and revealed the importance of il10 in maintaining homeostasis in this mucosal tissue. As in mammals, zebrafish il10 appears to have an anti-inflammatory function.

Little is known about the photoperiod-influence and genome regulatory processes driving smoltification such as the large scale changes in lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis in the developing smolt liver. To shed light on this, we performed a smoltification trial using contrasting photoperiod regimes and generate ATAC-seq data from livers throughout smoltification and after seawater transfer to assess the differences in chromatin accessibility. In this experiment Atlantic salmon were reared for a total of 46 weeks from the parr stage, through smoltification, and seawater transfer.

Project description:Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is an ectoparasitic condition of some farm-reared marine fish and is caused by Neoparamoeba perurans. Tanks housing Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) were inoculated with Neoparamoeba perurans and fish were sampled at 36 days postinoculation (pi.). AGD-affected gill tissue was dissected from N. perurans infected fish, and a DNA microarray was used to compare global gene expression against tissues from AGD-naive fish. To determine whether the changes in gene expression were restricted to AGD-lesions, lesion tissue from AGD-affected fish was also compared with non-lesion gill tissue dissected from the same gill arch. Samples were assessed using a DNA microarray. mRNA from lesion and non-lesion gill tissue was amplified and labeled. Six biological and two technical replicates were utilised to hybridise to 12 arrays using amplified RNA from AGD-affected lesion gill tissue with AGD-naive fish as a control. Four biological and two technical replicates were utilised to hybridise to 8 arrays using amplified RNA from AGD-affected lesion gill tissue with non-lesion tissue from the same gill arch as a control. The assignment of microarrays to treatment groups for hybridization was randomised by using a random number generator.

Project description:Prymnesium parvum is regarded as one of the most notorious harmful algal bloom (HAB) species worldwide. In recent years, it has frequently formed toxic blooms in coastal and brackish waters of America, Europe, Australia, Africa and Asia, causing large-scale mortalities of wild and cultured fish and other gill-breathing animals. In the last decade, blooms of P. parvum have expanded to inland fresh waters in the USA, presumably due to changes in environmental conditions. The aim of the experiment was to establish the gill transcriptomic responses to P. parvum in rainbow trout. We used 2 different concentrations of P. parvum and identified fish with low and moderate responses to the algae. Based on the dose of and the fish response, fish were classified into 4 groups with high exposure/moderate response (HM), high exposure/low response (HL), low exposure/low response (LL) and control group (C) with no exposure/no response. Gene expression profiling of the gill tissue was performed using a microarray platform developed and validated for rainbow trout.

Project description:In the North Sea and adjacent North Atlantic coastal areas fish experience relatively high levels of persistent organic pollutants. The aim of this study is to compare the mode of actions of environmentally relevant concentrations of halogenated compounds and their mixtures in Atlantic cod. Juvenile male cod were fed mixtures of chlorinated (PCBs, DDT analogs, chlordane, lindane and toxaphene), brominated (PBDEs) and fluorinated (Perfluorooctanesulfonate/PFOS) compounds for one month. One group received a mixture of all three compounds. Transcriptome analysis of liver samples was performed to identify the main affected pathways. Accumulated levels of chemicals in cod liver reflected concentrations found in wild fish. Pathway analysis revealed that the treatment effects by each of the three groups of chemicals (chlorinated, brominated and fluorinated) converged on activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). The results of our transcriptomics analysis suggest that the UPR pathway is a sensitive common target of halogenated organic environmental pollutants
