Effects of aflatoxin B1 on metabolism- and immunity-related gene expression in Hermetia illucens L. (Diptera: Stratiomyidae)

ABSTRACT: Contamination of food products with mycotoxins such as aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) poses a severe risk to human health. Larvae of the black soldier fly (BSFL), Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae), can successfully metabolize AFB1 without any negative consequences on their survival or growth. However, the underlying mechanisms that allow BSFL to metabolize AFB1 are unknown. In this study, five-day-old BSFL were fed with either a control or an AFB1-spiked (20 µg/kg) diet to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Larval samples were collected at three timepoints (6 h, 24 h, and 72 h) and subjected to RNA-Seq analysis to determine gene expression patterns. Provision of an AFB1-spiked diet resulted in an up-regulation of 357 and a down-regulation of 929 unique genes. Upregulated genes include multiple genes involved in AFB1 metabolism in other (insect) species. Downregulated genes were generally involved in the insects' growth, development, and immunity. BSFL possesses a diverse genetic arsenal that encodes for enzymes capable of metabolizing AFB1 without trade-offs on larval survival.

The salivary transcriptome of Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae) larvae: A microarrray-based study

Project description:In spite of the many recent developments in the field of vector sialomics, the salivary glands of larvalmosquitoes have been largely unexplored. We used whole-transcriptome microarray analysis to create a gene-expression profile of the salivary gland tissue of fourth-instar Anopheles gambiae larvae, and compare it to the gene-expression profile of a matching group of whole larvae. We identified a total of 221 probes with expression values that were (a) significantly enriched in the salivary glands, and (b)sufficiently annotated as to allow the prediction of the presence/absence of signal peptides in their corresponding gene products. Based on available annotation of the protein sequences associated with these probes, we propose that the main roles of larval salivary secretions include: (a) immune response, (b) mouthpart lubrication, (c) nutrient metabolism, and (d) xenobiotic detoxification. Other highlights of the study include the cloning of a transcript encoding a previously unknown salivary defensin (AgDef5), the confirmation of mucus secretion by the larval salivary glands, and the first report of salivary lipocalins in the Culicidae.

RNA-seq of stomach and pyloric caeca from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fed diets containing chitin from shrimp and black soldier fly larvae

Project description:Farmed Atlantic salmon was given either a 6 % cellulose diet, a diet containing 6 % shrimp shell chitin or a diet containing 6 % chitin from black soldier fly larvae for a period of 4 weeks. The fish were split into six tanks at the beginning of the experiment; six fish per tank and two tanks per diet. RNA from stomach and pyloric caeca from four fish given each diet was sequenced.

Dataset from The proteome landscape of the black soldier fly provides insights into protein function and microbial diversity

Project description:The larvae of black soldier fly (BSF) Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae), has demonstrated ability in the efficient bioconversion of organic waste into a sustainable source of food and feed, but fundamental biology remains to be discovered to exploit their full biodegradative potential. Herein, LC-MS/MS was used to assess the efficiency of eight differing extraction protocols to build foundational knowledge regarding the proteome landscape of both BSF larvae body and gut. No specific protocol was superior in capturing the BSF body and gut proteome, but each yielded complementary information to improve BSF proteome coverage. Protocol-specific functional annotation using protein level information has shown that the selection of extraction buffer can affect protein detection and their associated functional classes within the measured BSF larval gut proteome. Metaproteome analysis on BSF larvae gut has uncovered the prevalence of two bacterial phyla: actinobacteria and proteobacteria. We envisage that comparing a range of extraction protocols and investigating the proteome from the BSF body and gut separately will expand the fundamental knowledge of the BSF proteome and thereby provide translational opportunities for future research to enhance their efficiency for waste degradation and contribution to the circular economy.

Microarray analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans exposed to four indirect-acting toxicants

Project description:In this study, we exposed Caenorhabditis elegans wild types N2 to the model indirect-acting toxicants aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P), the PCB mixture Aroclor 1254 (PCB1254), and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD). In microarray experiments, we studied one concentration of AFB1 (30 μM), one concentration of B(a)P (30 μM), two concentrations of PCB1254 (1 μM and 30 μM), and two concentrations of TCDD (1 μM and 10 μM). As a control M9 medium with 0.5% DMSO was used. Age synchronized worms at developmental L4 larval stage were exposed to treatment for 24 hours. After flash freezing the samples, RNA was isolated, labeled and hybridized on oligo microarray (Agilent) slides.

Proteomics and ultrastructural analysis of Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) larval peritrophic matrix

Project description:This is a set of three raw data from the larval of Hermetia illucens. The total protein was extracted with protein lysis buffer (8M urea with appropriate protease inhibitor). The trypsin-digested peptides were analyzed by online nano-flow liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry performed on an EASY-nLC system (Thermo, USA) connected to a Q Exactive HF-X Quadrupole Orbitrap mass spectrometer (Thermo, USA) through a nanoelectrospray ion source.
