Project description:Lake trout are used as bioindicators for toxics exposure in the Great Lakes ecosystem. However, there is no knowledge about lake trout proteome. Here we performed the first lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) liver proteomics and searched the databases against (NCBI and UniProtKB) Salvelinus, Salmonidae, Actinopterygii and the more distant Danio rerio. In the NCBI search, we identified 4371 proteins in 1252 clusters. From these proteins, we found 2175 proteins in Actinopterygii 1253 in Salmonidae, 69 in Salvelinus and 901 in Danio rerio NCBI searches. In the UniProtKB search, we identified 2630 proteins in 1100 clusters. From these proteins, we found 317 in Actinopterygii, 1653 in Salmonidae, 37 in Salvelinus and 666 in Danio rerio UniProtKB searches. A similar outcome was also obtained from a technical replicate experiment. A large number of lake trout liver proteins were not in any Salvelinus databases, suggesting that lake trout liver proteins have homologues to some proteins from the Salmonidae family and Actinopterygii class, as well as to the species Danio rerio, a more highly studied Cypriniformes fish. Therefore, our study not only builds the first comprehensive lake trout protein database, but also establishes protein homology-based evolutionary relationships between the fish within their family and class, as well as distant-related fish (lake trout and zebrafish). In addition, this study opens the possibility of identifying evolutionary relationships (i.e. adaptive mutations) between various groups (i.e. zebrafish, Salmonidae, Salvelinus and lake trout) through evolutionary proteomics

Project description:Lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) are a top-predator species in the Laurentian Great Lakes that are often used as bioindicators of chemical stressors in the ecosystem. Although many studies are done using these fish to determine concentrations of stressors like legacy persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic chemicals, there are currently no proteomic studies on the biological effects these stressors have on the ecosystem. This lack of proteomic studies on Great Lakes lake trout is because there is currently no complete, comprehensive protein database for this species. In this research, we aimed to use proteomic methods and established protein databases from NCBI and UniProtKB to identify potential proteins in the lake trout species. The current study utilized heart tissue and blood from two separate lake trout. Our previous published work on the lake trout liver revealed 4,194 potential protein hits in the NCBI databases and 3,811 potential protein hits in the UniProtKB databases. In the current study, using the NCBI databases we identified 838 potential protein hits for the heart and 580 potential protein hits for the blood of the first lake trout (biological replicate 1). In the second lake trout (biological replicate 2), using the NCBI databases we identified 1,180 potential protein hits for the heart and 561 potential protein hits for the blood. Similar results were obtained using the UniProtKB databases. This study builds on our previous work by continuing to build the first comprehensive lake trout protein database. Through this investigation, we are also able to make observations as to protein homology through evolutionary relationships.

Project description:Fish oil, olive oil, and coconut oil dietary supplementation have several cardioprotective benefits, but it is not established if they can protect against air pollution-induced adverse effects. We hypothesized that these dietary supplements would attenuate ozone-induced systemic and pulmonary effects. Male Wistar Kyoto rats were fed either a normal diet, or a diet enriched with fish, olive, or coconut oil starting at 4 weeks of age for 8 weeks. Animals were then exposed to air or ozone (0.8 ppm), 4h/day for 2 consecutive days. The fish oil diet completely abolished phenylephrine-induced vasoconstriction that was increased following ozone exposure in the animals fed all other diets. Only the fish oil diet increased baseline levels of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) markers of lung injury and inflammation. Ozone-induced pulmonary injury/inflammation were comparable in rats on normal, coconut oil, and olive oil diets with altered expression of markers in animals fed the fish oil diet. Fish oil, regardless of exposure, led to enlarged, foamy macrophages in the BALF that coincided with decreased mRNA expression of cholesterol transporters, cholesterol receptors, and nuclear receptors in the lung. Serum miRNA profile was assessed using small RNA-sequencing in normal and fish oil groups and demonstrated marked depletion of a variety of miRNAs, several of which were of splenic origin. No ozone-specific changes were noted. Collectively, these data indicate that while fish oil offered protection from ozone-induced aortic vasoconstriction, it increased pulmonary injury/inflammation and impaired lipid transport mechanisms resulting in foamy macrophage accumulation, demonstrating the need to be cognizant of potential off-target pulmonary effects that might offset the overall benefit of this vasoprotective dietary supplement.

Project description:The lung response to inhalation exposure to oil vapor particles was investigated in a rat model. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed by whole-body inhalation to air or an aerosol containing oil vapor particles at concentrations of 300 ppm, 6 hours/day for 1 day (shot-term) or 300 ppm, 6 hours/day, 4 days/week for 4 weeks (long-term). The control and oil vapor exposed rats were euthanized at post-exposure time intervals of 1 and 28 days and lung toxicity determined. Analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage parameters of toxicity such as lactate dehydrogenase activity, oxidant generation, and inflammation did not reveal any significant lung toxicity in the oil vapor exposed rats. Approximately 50 genes each were found significantly differentially expressed in both the short- and long-term exposure groups of the rats at the one-day post-exposure time interval. The data obtained from the present study demonstrated that oil vapor inhalation exposure, under the exposure conditions employed in the present study, did not result in any significant lung toxicity in the rats despite the gene expression changes detected.

Project description:Samples of oil and production water were collected from five wells of the Qinghai Oilfield, China, and subjected to GeoChip hybridization experiments for microbial functional diversity profiling. Unexpectedly, a remarkable microbial diversity in oil samples, which was higher than that in the corresponding water samples, was observed, thus challenging previously believed assumptions about the microbial diversity in this ecosystem. Hierarchical clustering separated oil and water samples, thereby indicating distinct functional structures in the samples. Genes involved in the degradation of hydrocarbons, organic remediation, stress response, and carbon cycling were significantly abundant in crude oil, which is consistent with their important roles in residing in oil. Association analysis with environmental variables suggested that oil components comprising aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons, and a polar fraction with nitrogen-, sulfur-, and oxygen-containing compounds were mainly influential on the structure of the microbial community. Furthermore, a comparison of microbial communities in oil samples indicated that the structures were depth/temperature-dependent. To our knowledge, this is the first thorough study to profile microbial functional diversity in crude oil samples.

Project description:Purpose:To help identify molecular mechanisms and pathways potentially involved in the developmental toxicity for fish exposed to Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil, transcriptomic profiles in mahi-mahi (Coryphaena hippurus) embryos exposed to different DWH oils (source and artificially weathered oil) were evaluated at different critical windows of development using High Throughput Sequencing (HTS). Methods:Total mRNA profiles of 24, 48, 96 hpf mahi-mahi larvae after slick and source oil exposure were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina HiSeq2500. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Results: Exposure to slick oil induced more pronounced changes in gene expression over time than did exposure to source oil. Predominant transcriptomic responses included alteration of E1F2 signaling, steroid biosynthesis, ribosome biogenesis, perturbation in eye development and peripheral nervous, and activation of P450 pathway. Comparisons of changes of cardiac / Ca2+-associated genes with phenotypic responses revealed reduced heart rate and increased pericardial edema in larvae exposed to slick oil but not source oil.

Project description:The effect of different diets (i.e. fish oil based vs vegetable oil based) on liver transcription profiles over the life history stages (freshwater and marine phases) of cultured Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) were explored. Two groups of fish were raised from first feeding on different lipid containing diets; a) the standard 100% fish oil based diet, the other enriched with a blend of vegetable oils (75%) + fish oil (25%). Liver samples were taken from fish at four time points: two freshwater phase (as parr 36 weeks post hatch (wph); as pre-smolts, 52 wph) and two marine phase ( as post-smolts 55 wph; and as adult fish , 86 wph). A total of 96 cDNA microarray hybridisations - TRAITS / SGP Atlantic salmon 17k feature cDNA microarray - were performed ( 2 diets x 4 time points x 6 biological replicates x 2 -dye swap) using a comon pooled reference contol design.
