MiR-205 Mediated Cu-Induced Lipid Accumulation in Yellow Catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco.

ABSTRACT: The present working hypothesis is that the Cu-induced changes in lipid metabolism may be mediated by miRNAs. Here, we describe the miRNA profile of the liver tissues of yellow catfish exposed to waterborne Cu, based on larger-scale sequencing of small RNA libraries. We identified a total of 172 distinct miRNAs. Among these miRNAs, compared to the control, mRNA expression levels of 16 miRNAs (miR-203a, 205, 1788-3p, 375, 31, 196a, 203b-3p, 2187-5p, 196d, 459-3p, 153a and miR-725, and two novel-miRNAs: chr4-1432, chr-7684) were down-regulated, and mRNA levels of miR-212 and chr20-5274 were up-regulated in Cu-exposed group. The functions of their target genes mainly involved ether lipid metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism and ?-linolenic acid metabolism. Cu exposure inhibited the expression of miR-205, whose predicted target genes were enriched in the pathway of lipid metabolism, including fas, lxr?, ddit3, lamp2, casp3a and baxa. These potential target genes were further verified by Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Using primary hepatocytes of yellow catfish, Cu incubation down-regulated miR-205 expression, and increased TG contents and FAS activity. LXR antagonist effectively ameliorate the Cu-induced change of TG content and FAS activity. These data suggest that down-regulation of the miRNA-205 may be an important step in Cu-induced changes in lipid metabolism in yellow catfish.

Project description:Although several studies have been conducted to study leptin function, information is very scarce on the molecular mechanism of leptin in fatty acid β-oxidation and oocytes maturation in fish. In this study, we investigated the potential role of fatty acid β-oxidation in leptin-mediated oocytes maturation in Pelteobagrus fulvidraco. Exp. 1 investigated the transcriptomic profiles of ovary and the differential expression of genes involved in β-oxidation and oocytes maturation following rt-hLEP injection; rt-hLEP injection was associated with significant changes in the expression of genes, including twenty-five up-regulated genes (CPT1, Acsl, Acadl, Acadm, Hadhb, Echsl, Hsd17b4, Acca, PPARα, CYP8B1, ACOX1, ACBP, MAPK, RINGO, Cdc2, MEK1, IGF-1R, APC/C, Cdk2, GnRHR, STAG3, SMC1, FSHβ and C-Myc) and ten down-regulated gene (PPARγ, FATCD36, UBC, PDK1, Acads, Raf, Fizzy, C3H-4, Raf and PKC), involved in fatty acid β-oxidation and oocytes maturation. In Exp. 2, rt-hLEP and specific inhibitors AG490 (JAK-STAT inhibitor) were used to explore whether leptin induced oocytes maturation, and found that leptin incubation increased the diameters of oocytes and percentage of germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD)-MII oocytes, up-regulated mRNA levels of genes involved in oocytes maturation and that leptin-induced oocyte maturation was related to activation of JAK-STAT pathway. In Exp. 3, primary oocytes of P. fulvidraco were treated with (R)-(+)-etomoxir (an inhibitor of β-oxidation) or l-carnitine (an enhancer of β-oxidation) for 48 h under rt-hLEP incubation. Exp. 3 indicated that the inhibition of fatty acid β-oxidation resulted in the down-regulation of gene expression involved in oocytes maturation, and repressed the leptin-induced up-regulation of these gene expression. Activation of fatty acid β-oxidation improved the maturation rate and mean diameter of oocytes, and up-regulated gene expression involved in oocytes maturation. Leptin is one of the main factors that links fatty acid β-oxidation with oocyte maturation; β-oxidation is essential for leptin-mediated oocyte maturation in fish.
