Project description:Heart disease is the leading cause of mortality worldwide due to the limited regenerative capacity of the mammalian heart. Myocardial infarction causes massive cardiomyocyte apoptosis that is replaced by a fibrotic scar. In contrast to mammals, certain vertebrates such as fish and amphibians can regenerate cardiac muscle without scarring. Here, we established a cryoinjury model in the salamander species, Pleurodeles waltl. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing to profile the salamander heart and identified CLDN6 as a specific marker of epicardium, the outermost mesothelial layer enclosing the heart. Notably, lineage tracing experiments showed differentiation of CLDN6+ epicardium-derived cell intermediates into cardiomyocytes in response to injury. Additionally, scRNA-seq experiments suggested a differentiation trajectory that describes epicardial cell to myocyte conversion. Furthermore, ablation of these intermediates with Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CPE) blocked cardiac regeneration.

Project description:Plethodontid salamanders are the largest family of salamanders and are classic models for studying the effect of rapidly evolving courtship pheromones on mating behavior and reproductive success. Despite interests in plethodontid reproduction, very little is known about the molecular composition of salamander gametes, as the extraordinary sizes of their genomes have impaired the development of various omic-scale resources. To identify what proteins may be expressed in salamander sperm, we performed DIA-MS on sperm samples from two plethodontid species, Plethodon shermani and Desmognathus ocoee. As the first detailed study of salamander sperm, this study partially fills in a critical taxonomic gap in the study of fertilization proteins in vertebrates.

Project description:Nociceptive response belongs to a basic animal behavior facilitating adaptability and survival upon external or internal stimuli. Fish, similarly to higher vertebrates, also possess nociceptive machinery. Current protocols involving procedures performed on adult zebrafish including heart cryoinjury do not, however, take into account the adverse effects including pain that may potentially arise from these methodologies. Here, we assess the effect of two analgesics, lidocaine and morphine, followed after the heart cryoinjury in zebrafish. Monitoring swimming behaviour together with histology and gene expression analysis at the single cell level using scRNA sequencing and RNAscope fluorescent in situ hybridization technology, we show morphine, but not lidocaine, significantly improves animal welfare 6 hours post-cryoinjury, without impairing heart regeneration process. Altogether, morphine should be considered as the analgesic of choice to reduce post-surgical pain in adult zebrafish.

Project description:Unlike human hearts, zebrafish hearts efficiently regenerate after injury. Regeneration is driven by the strong proliferation response of its cardiomyocytes to injury. In this study, we show that active telomerase is required for cardiomyocyte proliferation and full organ recovery, supporting the potential of telomerase therapy as a means of stimulating cell proliferation upon myocardial infarction. Heart transcriptomes of WT and telomerase defective adult zebrafish animals were profiled by RNASeq, in control conditions and 3 days after heart cryoinjury.

Project description:Salamander Temperature Exposure Experiment

Project description:Tadpoles of the anuran species Rana pirica can undergo predator-specific morphological responses. Exposure to a predation threat by larvae of the salamander Hynobius retardatus results in formation of a bulgy body (bulgy morph) with a higher tail. The objective of the present study was to use Affymetrix Xenopus Genechip to profile gene expression in the tail tissue by different predation threat. Tadpoles of Rana pirica treated with larvae salamander for 8days (brainS1, brainS2, brainS3) were analyzed with triplicate. Controls were cultured for 8days without larvae salamander (brainC1,brainC2,brainC3,brainC4,brainC5,brainC6). Brains from tadpoles after 8days of each treatment were dissected for RNA extraction and gene expression analysis using Affymetrix Xenopus Genechip arrays.

Project description:Transcriptomes of organisms reveal differentiation associated with the use of different habitats. However, this leaves open how much of the observed differentiation can be attributed to genetic differences or to transcriptional plasticity. In this study, we disentangle causes of differential gene expression in larvae of the European fire salamander from the Kottenforst forest in Germany. Larvae inhabit permanent streams and ephemeral ponds and represent an example of a young evolutionary split associated with contrasting ecological conditions. We found ample evidence for differentiation among larvae occupying different habitats in nature with 2800 out of 11797 genes being differentially expressed based on transcriptome data from salamander sampled in their natural habitat (see GEO Series GSE100819). We then quantified transcriptional plasticity towards temperature and genetic differentiation based on controlled temperature laboratory experiments. Gene-by-environment interactions modelling revealed that 28 % of the gene expression divergence observed among samples in nature could be attributed to plasticity related to water temperature. Expression patterns of only a small number of 101 genes were affected by the genotype. Our analysis demonstrates that effects of environmental factors must be taken into account to explain variation of gene expression in salamanders in nature. Notwithstanding, it provides first evidence that genetic factors determined gene expression divergence between pond and stream ecotypes and could be involved in adaptive evolution.

Project description:Tadpoles of the anuran species Rana pirica can undergo predator-specific morphological responses. Exposure to a predation threat by larvae of the salamander Hynobius retardatus results in formation of a bulgy body (bulgy morph) with a higher tail. Whereas, dragon fly also induced higher tail tadpole. The tadpoles revert to a normal phenotype upon removal of the larval salamander or dragon fly threat. The objective of the present study was to use Affymetrix Xenopus Genechip to profile gene expression in the tail tissue by different predation threat. Tadpoles of Rana pirica treated with larvae salamander for 8days (S1, S2, S3) or dragon fly for 8days (Y1,Y2, Y3) were analyzed with triplicate. Removal experiments were also treated with predators for 4days and then removed predators from tadpoles (-S1,-S2, -S3) or (-Y1,-Y2,-Y3). Controls were cultured for 8days without predators (C2, C3). Tails from tadpoles after 8days of each treatment were dissected for RNA extraction and gene expression analysis using Affymetrix Xenopus Genechip arrays.
