Abstract
Somatostatin is a multifunctional hormone with several genes in teleost fishes. A zebrafish CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of the somatostatin 1.1 (sst1.1) with persistent hyperglycaemia and hyperlipidaemia displayed reduced fecundity when fed brine shrimp ad libitum. Here, we investigated the effect of feeding brine shrimp one to three times a day on fecundity and liver transcriptomics of the sst1.1 mutant compared to their wild-type siblings to unravel molecular pathways associated with the phenotype. We find that the sst1.1 deficient zebrafish had high mortality when fed at the highest rate and that in both genotypes, growth and fecundity were proportional to food intake. Although glucose and cholesterol decreased substantially at the lowest level of feeding, they were still higher in the mutant than in the wild-type zebrafish. Furthermore, sst1.1 deficiency had a small but significant effect on the hepatic expression of protein, carbohydrate, and fatty acid biosynthesis genes, contributing to the mutant's diabetic phenotype.

期刊介绍:
Gene Reports publishes papers that focus on the regulation, expression, function and evolution of genes in all biological contexts, including all prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as well as viruses. Gene Reports strives to be a very diverse journal and topics in all fields will be considered for publication. Although not limited to the following, some general topics include: DNA Organization, Replication & Evolution -Focus on genomic DNA (chromosomal organization, comparative genomics, DNA replication, DNA repair, mobile DNA, mitochondrial DNA, chloroplast DNA). Expression & Function - Focus on functional RNAs (microRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, mRNA splicing, alternative polyadenylation) Regulation - Focus on processes that mediate gene-read out (epigenetics, chromatin, histone code, transcription, translation, protein degradation). Cell Signaling - Focus on mechanisms that control information flow into the nucleus to control gene expression (kinase and phosphatase pathways controlled by extra-cellular ligands, Wnt, Notch, TGFbeta/BMPs, FGFs, IGFs etc.) Profiling of gene expression and genetic variation - Focus on high throughput approaches (e.g., DeepSeq, ChIP-Seq, Affymetrix microarrays, proteomics) that define gene regulatory circuitry, molecular pathways and protein/protein networks. Genetics - Focus on development in model organisms (e.g., mouse, frog, fruit fly, worm), human genetic variation, population genetics, as well as agricultural and veterinary genetics. Molecular Pathology & Regenerative Medicine - Focus on the deregulation of molecular processes in human diseases and mechanisms supporting regeneration of tissues through pluripotent or multipotent stem cells.
