Alteration of mRNA abundance, oxidation products and antioxidant enzyme activities during oocyte ageing in common carp Cyprinus carpio.

ABSTRACT: Oocyte ageing is the most important factor affecting egg quality of several fish species after ovulation. Oxidative stress has been proposed as the initiator of the oocyte ageing process in other vertebrates. To identify the role of oxidative stress and apoptosis on the progress of oocyte ageing in the common carp Cyprinus carpio, changes in the relative mRNA abundance of selected transcripts were examined. The possible alteration in the oxidation status of the oocytes during ageing was also studied. In addition, the activity of antioxidant enzymes during oocyte ageing was evaluated. Oocytes from 6 females were incubated in vivo for 14 hours post-ovulation (HPO) and in vitro for 10 hours post-stripping (HPS) at 20°C before fertilization. Hatching rates were over 65% up to 4-6 HPO, finally dropping to 1.3% at 12-14 HPO.Hatching rates were over 65% up to 4-6 HPO, finally dropping to 1.3% at 12-14 HPO. Hatching rates were more than 70% for the eggs stored in vitro up to 6 HPS and then decreased to 21.3% at 10 HPS. The results demonstrated no significant changes in the relative mRNA levels of oxidative stress-related genes or genes involved in the cell cycle during the progress of oocyte ageing in common carp. Additionally, the amount of TBARS and carbonyls did not change as time elapsed following ovulation. The apoptosis-related genes however, were significantly altered following the prolonged time interval between ovulation and fertilization. The lack of response of both activities of antioxidant enzymes and oxidation products during oocyte ageing strengthens the conclusion that oxidative stress is unlikely to be a main factor determining the progress of oocyte ageing in common carp. However, an increase in the mRNA abundance of apoptosis-related genes demonstrates that apoptotic pathway might be involved in the progress of oocyte ageing.

Project description:Tea polysaccharides plays a role in lipid metabolism, antioxidant capacity and immunity of mammals. To investigate the functions of tea polysaccharides on fish, the common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) was selected as the animal model in this study. In our study, the common carp (45±0.71g) were randomly divided into four groups and were fed fodder with 50% carbohydrate. The common carp were orally administrated with 0 mg/kg BW (control group), 200 mg/kg BW (low-dose group), 400 mg/kg BW (medium-dose group) and 800 mg/kg BW (high-dose group) tea polysaccharide for two week. At the end of experiment, the serum glucose, TG, MDA contents and antioxidase activities were measured by commercial kits. The serum immune factors levels were tested by ELISA. The genes expression levels related to antioxidant capacity, metabolism and immunity were measured by real-time PCR. The results showed that the glucose, TG and MDA contents in serum were significantly decreased by tea polysaccharides treatment. The serum activities of SOD were significantly increased by low-dose tea polysaccharides treatment. The serum activities of GPX were significantly increased by medium-dose tea polysaccharides treatment. The serum levels of IL-1β and TNFα were significantly decreased in the tea polysaccharides treatment group. In the high-dose treatment group, the serum level of TGFβ was significantly increased, and the serum level of IL-12 was markedly decreased. In the hepatopancreas, the expression of acc1, fas, srebp1c, lpl, gys and pparγ were significantly reduced, and the expression of pygl, cat, mnsod, ho-1 and gr were significantly up-regulated in the tea polysaccharides group. In the intestine, the expression of zo-1, occ and gip was significantly up-regulated in the high-dose treatment group. Moreover, the expression of glut2 and sglt1 were significantly down regulated. In the spleen, the expression of il-12, tnfα and il-6 were significantly decreased, and the expression of il-10 and tgfβ was significantly increased by the tea polysaccharides. In the spleen cells, the tea polysaccharides could relieve the LPS-induced immune damage. In conclusion, tea polysaccharides can improve antioxidant capacity, lipid metabolism and immunity of common carp.
