Project description:Temperature is an important ecological condition, and sudden temperature changes in soil can induce stress in soil-dwelling invertebrates. Soil animals can move to more favorable habitats and/or adapt physiologically to a stressful environment. Hyperthermic conditions will impact gene expression as one of the first steps. We use a transcriptomics approach to identify the transcripts of which expression changed in response to heat stress in the springtail Folsomia candida using a 5,131 probe microarray. A temperature shift from 20°C to 30°C for 30 minutes significantly altered the expression of 142 genes, of which 116 were upregulated, and 26 downregulated. Many upregulated genes encoded heat shock proteins (Hsps) or enzymes involved in the synthesis of ATP, such as members of the electron transport chain. Furthermore, genes involved in oxidative stress and anion-transporting ATPases were upregulated. Downregulated were glycoside hydrolases, involved in catalysis of certain disaccharides, which indicate an accumulation of stress-protective disaccharides. The microarray results from this study, which were validated using quantitative RT PCR, reveal a mild response to heat shock in this soil invertebrate, relative to other organisms. This may be due to specific ecological factors during evolution of soil invertebrates, such as the relatively stable temperatures in the soil habitat. This study presents potential candidate genes for future functional studies concerning thermal stress in soil-dwelling invertebrates, like e.g., the investigation of the heat hardening process.

This study presents potential candidate genes for future functional studies concerning thermal stress in soil-dwelling invertebrates, like e.g., the investigation of the heat hardening process. Folsomia candida was first acclimated to LUFA 2.2 soil at 20 C for two days. Then animals were either exposed to 30 C for 30 minutes (heat shock treated), or were not heat shocked (reference). For each treatment 4 biological replicates were used, replicate samples consisted of total RNA extracted from ~30 animals exposed in the same jar to either reference or heat shock. Each unique heat shock treated sample was hybridized to a unique reference sample. In total in 4 hybridizations of 8 samples, was performed. The dyes were evenly distributed, which means that for each treatment two samples were labeled with cy3 and the other two with cy5.

Project description:Negatives effects induced by exposure to ultra-violet (UV) radiation are well known. Nevertheless the modes of action of UV radiation are not well understood, in particular in soil invertebrates. In the present work, the effects of two UV doses (mimicking worst case scenarios in earth crust) on gene expression profile of Enchytraeus crypticus (Enchytraeidae, Oligochaeta) were investigated using the high-throughput 4 x 44K microarray developed for the species.

Project description:Diclofenac is widely used as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug leaving residues in the environment. To investigate effects on terrestrial ecosystems, we measured dissipation rate in soil and investigated ecotoxicological and transcriptome-wide responses in Folsomia candida. Exposure for 4 weeks to diclofenac reduced both survival and reproduction of F. candida in a dose-dependent manner. At concentrations ≥200 mg/kg soil diclofenac remained stable in the soil during a 21-day incubation period. Microarrays examined transcriptional changes at low and high diclofenac exposure concentrations. The results indicated that development and growth were severely hampered and immunity-related genes, mainly directed against bacteria and fungi, were significantly up-regulated. Furthermore, neural metabolic processes were significantly affected only at the high concentration. We conclude that diclofenac is toxic to non-target soil invertebrates, although its mode of action is different from the mammalian toxicity. The genetic markers proposed in this study may be promising early markers for diclofenac ecotoxicity.
