Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE25440: Individual variation in confinement response at 168h GSE25473: Time course study of confinement stress in HR and LR trout lines Refer to individual Series
Project description:Farmed fish are unavoidably exposed to husbandry-related stressors which can result in outbreaks of disease, reduced reproductive success and poor growth. Biomarkers are needed for the establishment of selective breeding approaches for the production of stress resistant fish. In this context, microarray analysis has been carried out on liver tissues of two genetic lines of rainbow trout, high responders (HR) and low responders (LR), after confinement for various time periods. Microarray hybridisations provided gene expression profiles for pools of fish (stress: n=5; control: n=3) after 6h, 24h and 168h of confinement stress. Keywords : stress response, pools, time course, comparison of two lines.

Project description:Confinement stress in HR and LR trout lines
Project description:Farmed fish are unavoidably exposed to husbandry-related stressors which can result in outbreaks of disease, reduced reproductive success and poor growth. Biomarkers are needed for the establishment of selective breeding approaches for the production of stress resistant fish. In this context, microarray analysis has been carried out on liver tissues of two genetic lines of rainbow trout, high responders (HR) and low responders (LR), after confinement for various time periods. Microarray hybridisations provided gene expression profiles for 10 individual fish (5 of the HR line and 5 of the LR line) after 168h of confinment stress. Keywords : stress response, individual variation, fixed time point, comparison of two lines

Keywords : stress response, pools, time course, comparison of two lines. Samples were hybridised directly to each other in a parallel loop design. Each treatment (LC, LS, HC, HS) was hybidised in a loop of all 3 time points and each treatment loop was interconnected by hybridisations at a specific time. The publication will have this figure.

Each sample was hybridised twice against this reference using a dye-swap setup.

Project description:Stocking density is considered as a key factor determining the productivity of fish aquaculture systems. The transcriptomic response to crowding stress is, however, still poorly investigated. We aimed at the identification of potential biomarker genes via microarray analyses to get insight into molecular pathways modulated through density-induced stress in farmed rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. Transcriptome profiling in liver, kidney, and gills was complemented with behaviarol observation and analysis of classical plasma parameters. Individuals of two trout strains were exposed for eight days to definite stocking densities, 1 kg/m³ (low density); 10 kg/m³ (moderate); 18 kg/m³ (elevated); and 35 kg/m³ (high). Whereas stocking density had no significant effect on cortisol levels, plasma glucose levels were elevated in trout kept at high density. Pathway enrichment analyses confirmed the upregulation of HIF1a signaling in liver contributing to glucose homeostasis during stress conditions, while mTOR and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways were downregulated. Further perturbed hepatic pathways were involved in protein ubiquitination and the biosynthesis of cholesterol, retinol and glutathione. Three stocking density conditions were investigated: an uncrowded âmoderateâ density (MD: 10 kg trout/m³) , an elevated density (ED: 18 kg/m³ ), and high density (HD: 35 kg/m³). The experiment was performed twice with two strains of Steelhead rainbow trout (Troutlodge and Born trout), randomly assigned to identical glass tanks with MD (30 and 34 individuals), ED (60 and 64 individuals), and HD (120 and 140 individuals). Trout were sampled 8 d after experimental onset.
