Medaka larvae were exposed to HBCD

ABSTRACT: Recently, omics techniques have been widely applied to the discovery of potential bio-markers and explore triggering mechanism. To get a more comprehensive diagnosis of HBCD impacts on marine medaka (Oryzias melastigma), the larvae (within 24 hours post-hatch) were exposed to gradient doses of HBCD. After exposure for 7 days, the profiles of genes expression were examined using a custom-commercial 26, 430-oligonucleotide arrays (4×44K) of Japanese medaka which is shared much genomic information with marine medaka.At the end of the treatment period, 30 larvae/sample were pooled for RNA extraction and labeled by One-Color. A total of twelve independent arrays: three control (DMSO), three low-concentration HBCD (0.2 nM) exposures, three medium-concentration HBCD (2 nM) exposures, and three high-concentration HBCD (20 nM) exposures.

Project description:The anabolic androgen 17M-NM-2-trenbolone (TB) can cause masculinization and reduce fecundity of fish. However, the underlying mechanisms of various biological pathways including metabolism, biosynthesis etc. are largely unknown. Here, we evaluated the effects of TB using the medaka DNA microarray representing 36,398 genes. Larval medaka, Oryzias latipes, (within 24 hrs posthatch) were exposed to TB at various concentrations (2, 6, 20, 60, 100, 200 ng/L) for up to 7 days. Dose-response relationships in gene expression levels of the categorized genes were analyzed using the cumulative chisquared method. Microarray analyses of the TB-exposed larvae showed that 117 and 32 genes were determined as up and down-regulated genes, respectively. The most significant GO term for biological process identified within this gene list was lipid metabolic process, which contained 26 genes in up-regulated genes. In this category, M-bM-^@M-^\cholesterol biosynthetic processM-bM-^@M-^] was highlighted as an important subcategory with 15 genes, including hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA synthase cytoplasmic, squalene monooxygenase, lanosterol synthase etc. RT-PCR measurements in these genes were consistent with the microarray results in the direction and magnitude of these changes in gene expression. On the other hands, in the category of M-bM-^@M-^\sexual differentiation and developmentM-bM-^@M-^], genes related to hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis were not affected by TB treatment except for one gene encoded to cytochrome P450 19A1. Genes related to oogenesis, such as choriogenins and vitellogenins were weakly down regulated at 2-200 ng/L of TB. Our findings demonstrate that genes encoding cholesterol synthesis pathway via the mevalonate pathway were controlled by TB in larval medaka. TB concentrations used were 0 (control), 2, 6, 20, 60, 100 and 200 ng/L for 7 days of exposure. Each TB treatment had 90 larval medaka for each chamber. At day 7 of the exposures, triplicate samples (30 larvae/sample) from each chamber respectively were collected, flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored in liquid nitrogen until RNA extraction.
