The established primary culture model for studying lipogenesis in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) preadipocytes was used in the present study, and the objective was to explore the effects of CLA on intracellular lipid and TG content, fatty acid composition, and mRNA levels of adipogenesis transcription factors, lipase, and apoptosis genes in grass carp adipocytes in vitro. The results showed that CLA reduced the size of adipocyte and lipid droplet and decreased the content of intracellular lipid and TG, which was accompanied by a significant down-regulation of mRNA abundance in transcriptional regulators including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) γ, CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP) α, sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) 1c, lipase genes including fatty acid synthase (FAS), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), lipoprotein lipase (LPL). Meanwhile, it decreased the content of saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and n - 6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-6 PUFA) and increased the content of monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) and n - 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 PUFA) in primary grass carp adipocyte. In addition, CLA induced adipocyte apoptosis through downregulated anti-apoptotic gene B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) mRNA level and up-regulated pro-apoptotic genes tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), Caspase-3, and Caspase-9 mRNA level in a dose-dependent manner.

Five experimental diets (CR, 0.5% CAA, 1.5% CAA, 0.5% KE, 1.5% KE) containing Lys and Glu as free (Lys and Glu, CAA) dipeptide (Lys-Glu, KE) forms were prepared, respectively. A total of 450 juvenile grass carp with an initial weight of 10.69 ± 0.07 g were randomly assigned to 15 cages, and 5 treatments with 3 replicates of 30 fish each for 61 days of feeding. The results showed that the group of 0.5% KE exhibited the best growth performances according to the indicator's weight gain rate (WGR) and specific growth rate (SGR), although no statistically significant occurred among all groups; diet supplemented with 0.5% CAA significantly elevated the condition factor (CF) and viscerasomatic index (VSI) of juvenile grass carp. Diet supplemented with different Lys and Glu co-forms at different levels promoted the muscle amino acid content compared with those of CR group. Comparing with the CR group and other groups, the hardness of 0.5% CAA group significantly increased, and the springiness of 0.5% KE group excelled. Both the muscle fiber diameter and density of 0.5% KE group showed significant difference with those of the CR group, and a negative correlation between them was also observed. To uncover the related molecular mechanism of the differences caused by the different co-forms of Lys and Glu, the effect of different diets on the expressions of protein absorption, muscle quality, and antioxidation-related genes was analyzed. The results suggested that comparing with those of CR group, the dipeptide KE inhibited the expressions of genes associated with protein metabolism, such as AKT, S6K1, and FoxO1a but promoted PCNA expression, while the free style of CAA would improve the FoxO1a expression. Additionally, the muscle development-related genes (MyoD, MyOG, and Myf5) were significantly boosted in CAA co-form groups, and the expressions of fMYHCs were blocked but fMYHCs30 significantly promoted in 0.5% KE group. Finally, the effect of different co-forms of Lys and Glu on muscle antioxidant was examined. The 0.5% CAA diet was verified to increase GPX1a but obstruct Keap1 and GSTP1 expressions, resulting in enhanced SOD activity and reduced MDA levels in plasma.

A total of 92 yellowfin seabream individuals from 15 sites were performed whole-genome resequencing, and 4,383,564 high-quality single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were called. By conducting a genotype-environment association analysis, 29,951 adaptive and 4,328,299 neutral SNPs were identified. The yellowfin seabream exhibited two distinct population structures, despite high gene flow between sites. The seascape genome analysis revealed that genetic structure was influenced by a variety of factors including salinity gradients, habitat distance, and ocean currents. The frequency of allelic variation at the candidate loci changed with the salinity gradient. Annotation of these loci revealed that most of the genes are associated with osmoregulation, such as kcnab2a, kcnk5a, and slc47a1.

We identified a total of 10,556 AS events from 4865 genes and 619 differential AS (DAS) events from 519 DAS genes in pacific white shrimp. Functional annotation showed that the DAS genes primarily involved in spliceosome. Five splicing factors (SFs), U2AF1, PUF60, CHERP, SR140 and SRSF2 were significantly up-regulated and promoted AS. Furthermore, alkalinity activated the Leukocyte transendothelial migration, mTOR signaling pathway and AMPK signaling pathway, which regulated MAPK1, EIF3B and IGFP-RP1 associated with these pathways. We also studied three SFs (HSFP1, SRSF2 and NHE-RF1), which underwent AS to form different transcript isoforms.

The results demonstrated that limb autotomy triggered a metabolic profile adaption at the early stage of regeneration. Hemolymph glucose levels were elevated, and multiple glucose catabolic pathways were enhanced in the hepatopancreas. Additionally, glucose and ATP levels in the regenerative limb were upregulated, along with increased expression of glucose transporters. Furthermore, the gene expression and activity of enzymes involved in gluconeogenesis were repressed in the hepatopancreas. These findings indicate that limb regeneration triggers metabolic profile adaptations to meet the elevated energy requirements. Moreover, the study observed that supplementation with corn starch enhanced limb regeneration capacity by promoting wound healing and blastema growth. Interestingly, dietary carbohydrate addition influenced limb regeneration by stimulating gluconeogenesis rather than glycolysis in the regenerative limb.

This warming is projected to continue with serious biological and social ramifications for fisheries and aquaculture. One species particularly vulnerable to warming is the Atlantic surfclam (Spisula solidissima). The surfclam is a critically important species, linking marine food webs and supporting a productive, lucrative, and sustainable fishery. The surfclam is also emerging as an attractive candidate for aquaculture diversification, but the warming of shallow coastal farms threatens the expansion of surfclam aquaculture. Little is known about the adaptive potential of surfclams to cope with ocean warming. In this study, the surfclam transcriptome under heat stress was examined. Two groups of surfclams were subjected to heat stress to assess how artificial selection may alter gene expression. One group of clams had been selected for greater heat tolerance (HS) and the other was composed of random control clams (RC). After a 6-h exposure to 16 or 29 °C, gill transcriptome expression profiles of the four temperature/group combinations were determined by RNA sequencing and compared. When surfclams experienced heat stress, they exhibited upregulation of heat shock proteins (HSPs), inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs), and other stress-response related genes. RC clams differentially expressed 1.7 times more genes than HS clams, yet HS clams had a stronger response of key stress response genes, including HSPs, IAPs, and genes involved with mitigating oxidative stress. The findings imply that the HS clams have a more effective response to heat stress after undergoing the initial selection event due to genetic differences created by the selection, epigenetic memory of the first heat shock, or both. This work provides insights into how surfclams adapt to heat stress and should inform future breeding programs that attempt to breed surfclam for greater heat tolerance, and ultimately bring greater resiliency to shellfish farms.</p>","PeriodicalId":690,"journal":{"name":"Marine Biotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10869415/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139490511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying irregular oogenesis and fecundity differences in triploid <i>C. gigas</i>, we performed a comparative analysis of gonad transcriptomes at different stages of gonadal development, including female α, female β, and diploids. During early oogenesis, functional enrichment analysis between female diploids and putative female β triploids revealed differently expressed genes (DEGs) in the ribosome and ribosome biogenesis pathways. Expression levels of DEGs in these pathways were significantly decreased in the putative female β triploid, suggesting a potential role of reduced ribosome levels in obstructing triploid oogenesis. Moreover, to identify regulatory pathways in gonad development, female oysters at the early and mature stages were compared. The DNA repair and recombination proteins pathways were enriched in female diploids and female α triploids but absent in female β triploids. Overall, we propose that decreased ribosome biogenesis in female triploids hinders the differentiation of germ stem cells, leading to the formation of a large number of abnormal germ cells and ultimately resulting in reduced fecundity.
