Insights into molecular mechanisms of skin color variation in hybrid F1 of wild-type rainbow trout ♂ × yellow mutant rainbow trout ♀ through whole transcriptome and ceRNA network analysis

ABSTRACT: Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is a well-known economical fish globally, and its market value and acceptance are greatly influenced by skin color. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying skin color variation in rainbow trout remains largely unknown. In this study, we compared the expression profiles of whole transcriptome in dorsal skin from wild-type (WTrt) and yellow mutant rainbow trout (YMrt) that are F1 generation of WTrt ♂ × YMrt ♀. A total of 115 differentially expressed (DE) mRNAs, 126 lncRNAs, 18 circRNAs and 56 miRNAs were identified, and several core genes (gch1, pts, slc2all, pax7a/pax7b, dgat2, plin6 and pnpla2) involved in pteridine and carotenoid synthesis were significantly upregulated in YMrt. Interestingly, we found that melanogenesis-related genes tyr, dct, mitfa and pmel were also notably elevated in YMrt. Functional enrichment analysis revealed some pigmentation-related GO terms and KEGG pathways, including pteridine-containing compound biosynthetic process, pigment metabolic process, melanosome, melanosome transport, tyrosine metabolism and melanogenesis. Based on competing endogenous RNA analysis, there were 25 and 21 lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA networks targeted to gch1 and mitfa, such as LOC110496571-miR-96-x-gch1, LOC110508587- miR-182-x-gch1, LOC110494316-miR-21-y-mitfa and LOC110526055- miR-182-x-mitfa. Additionally, one (novel_circ_000056), eight (including novel_circ_005436 and novel_circ_005586) and three circRNAs (novel_circ_000382, novel_circ_002592 and novel_circ_005868) were found to regulate dgat2, gch1 and mitfa by targeting 21 miRNAs. This study provides a systematic perspective on the potential functions of these DEmRNAs and ncRNAs, and lays a foundation for further study on the molecular mechanisms governing rainbow trout skin color variation.

Project description:Hypoxia negatively affects the behavior, growth, reproduction, and survival of fish, causing serious economic losses to aquaculture. Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), an important economic fish worldwide, belongs to a hypoxia-sensitive fish species. However, the regulatory mechanisms of miRNAs under hypoxia stress response of rainbow trout remains unclear. In this study, rainbow trout were subjected to hypoxia stress (DO: 3.5 mg/L) for 3 h (H3h_L), 12 h (H12h_L), 24 h (H24h_L) and 3 h reoxygenation (R3h_L) to systemically evaluate the changes of miRNA expression profiles in liver, and the functions of sha-miR-92a_L+2R+4 were investigated. We found 17, 144, 57 and 55 differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs in H3h_L vs. control (N_L), H12h_L vs. N_L, H24h_L vs. N_L and R3h_L vs. N_L comparisons, respectively. Enrichment analysis revealed that the targets of these DE miRNAs were significantly enriched in HIF signaling pathway, VEGF signaling pathway, FoxO signaling pathway and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis. Through miRNA-mRNA nteraction and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), five key DE miRNAs (sha-miR-92a_L+2R+4, ssa-miR-128-3p, ssa-miR-101b-3p_R+1, ola-miR-199a-5p_R+2 and tni-miR-199_1ss18CG) were identified, which can target at least two hypoxia-responsive genes, such as vegfaa, ho, glut1a and junb. Functional analysis found that sha-miR-92a_L+2R+4 directly regulated vegfaa expression by targeting its 3′-UTR, overexpression of sha-miR-92a_L+2R+4 significantly decreased vegfaa expression in rainbow trout liver cells, while opposite results were obtained after transfection of sha-miR-92a_L+2R+4 inhibitor. Furthermore, overexpression of sha-miR-92a_L+2R+4 promoted rainbow trout liver cell proliferation and inhibited apoptosis. These results deepen our understanding of the crucial roles of miRNAs under hypoxia stress in rainbow trout, and provide valuable information for further studying the regulatory mechanisms of key hypoxia-responsive miRNAs and breeding hypoxia-tolerant rainbow trout species.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to identify the difference of immunity between wild-type and yellow mutant rainbow trout in natural flowing water pond culture environment. Methods: The transcriptomic profiles of the skin were generated by using the Hiseq™4000 sequencing platform. Results: A total of 557,976,332 clean reads were yielded from six libraries and then assembled into 38,226 genes. Using P-value of 0.05 as the threshold, 3373 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained between WR_S and YR_S rainbow trout skin including the members of HSP90, V-ATPases, GST, SUGT1, NLRP3, NOD1, TLR3, IFR3, DHX58, IFIH1, JAK1, JAK2, STAT1 and NAMPT (|log2 fold-change| ranged from 1 to 4). Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis of DEGs were performed. A majority of DEGs were enriched in innate immune-related GO terms and pathways, such as activation of innate immune response, inflammatory response, innate immune response, NAD+ADP-ribosyltransferase activity and NAD biosynthetic process in sub-categories of GO terms, and RIG-I-like receptor signaling pathway, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, Phagosome, Jak-STAT signaling pathway in KEGG enrichment pathways. Meanwhile, several immune-related metabolic pathways were also identified including metabolism of Xenobiotics by cytochrome P450, Glutathione metabolism, Nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism. Additionally, 15 DEGs were selected and validated their expression level by qRT-PCR to confirm accuracy of the RNA-seq. Conclusions: Our study is the first time to clarify the skin innate immunity difference between wild-type and yellow mutant rainbow trout in the natural flowing water pond culture environment. Our results show that the expression of most immune-related genes in the corresponding pathways were up-regulated in WR_S rainbow trout. We presumed that the disease resistance of WR_S rainbow trout might be stronger than YR_S rainbow trout.

Project description:The frequency of fish encountering hypoxia has risen dramatically as global warming and water pollution intensify, posing a serious threat to survival. Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), which is an economically important fish worldwide, belongs to a typical hypoxia-sensitive fish. However, little is known about the response mechanisms employed by rainbow trout to hypoxia stress. In this study, we systematically analyzed the changes of liver biochemical parameters in rainbow trout exposed to moderate hypoxic conditions (DO: 4.5 ± 0.1 mg/L) for different durations (4, 8, 12, 24 h and 1 month) and 12 h and 24 h reoxygenation, and histologic and transcriptome (lncRNA, miRNA and mRNA) under hypoxia stress for 12 h (Tm12L) and 1 month (TmlL) compared with control, and the interaction between LOC110520201, miR-2188-y and sod1 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter, overexpression and silencing assays. Histological observations revealed that liver suffered severe damage in Tm12L but not in TmlL. Integrating biochemical parameters and mRNA expression profiles, we found that exposure to short-term hypoxia stress resulted in enhanced immune response, aerobic and anaerobic glycolysis, gluconeogenesis and lipid metabolism. In TmlL, increased anaerobic glycolysis and decreased aerobic glycolysis were observed, and antioxidant and immune capacity has returned to normal. Additionally, several key hypoxia-related genes (epo, vegfc, epor, sod1, ppara, foxo1a, gk, dusp1, nlrc3 and nlrp3) and ceRNA regulatory networks were identified from 2711 differentially expressed (DE) mRNAs, 575 DElncRNAs and 395 DEmiRNAs, including LOC110520201-miR-2188-y-sod1, LOC110533332-miR-144-y-vegfc, LOC110526066-miR-465-x-ppara and LOC110535032-miR-743-y-nlrp3. The analysis of expression patterns in liver and rainbow trout liver cells treated with hypoxia suggested that changes in LOC110520201, miR-2188-y and sod1 showed a ceRNA regulatory relationship. Further experiments demonstrated that sod1 is a target of miR-2188-y, and LOC110520201 silencing increased the expression of miR-2188-y and inhibited sod1 expression. These results facilitated our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of hypoxia response in rainbow trout and provided genetic resources for breeding hypoxia-tolerant varieties.
