Abstract
AMP-activated protein kinase α subunit (AMPKα), the central regulatory molecule of energy metabolism, plays an important role in maintaining energy homeostasis and helping cells to resist the influence of various adverse factors. In the present study, an AMPKα was identified from Yesso scallop Patinopecten yessoensis (PyAMPKα). The open reading frame (ORF) of PyAMPKα was of 1599 bp encoding a putative polypeptide of 533 amino acid residues with a typical KD domain, a α-AID domain and a α-CTD domain. The deduced amino acid sequence of PyAMPKα shared 59.89-74.78% identities with AMPKαs from other species. The mRNA transcripts of PyAMPKα were found to be expressed in haemocytes and all the examined tissues, including gill, mantle, gonad, adductor muscle and hepatopancreas, with the highest expression level in adductor muscle. PyAMPKα was mainly located in cytoplasm of scallop haemocytes. At 3 h after high temperature stress treatment (25 °C), the mRNA transcripts of PyAMPKα, the phosphorylation level of PyAMPKα at Thr170 and the lactic acid (LD) content in adductor muscle all increased significantly, while the glycogen content decreased significantly. The activity of pyruvate kinase (PyPK) and the relative mRNA expression level of phosphofructokinase (PyPFK) were significantly up-regulated at 3 h after high temperature stress treatment (25 °C). Furthermore, the PyAMPKα activator AICAR could effectively upregulate the phosphorylation level of PyAMPKα, and increase activities of PyPFK and pyruvate kinase (PyPK). Meanwhile the glycogen content also declined under AICAR treatment. These results collectively suggested that PyAMPKα was involved in the high temperature stress response of scallops by enhancing glycolysis pathway of glycogen. These results would be helpful for understanding the functions of PyAMPKα in maintaining energy homeostasis under high temperature stress in scallops.

Abstract
Actin binding proteins are of crucial importance for the spatiotemporal regulation of actin cytoskeletal dynamics, thereby mediating a tremendous range of cellular processes. Since their initial discovery more than 30 years ago, the enabled/vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (Ena/VASP) family has evolved as one of the most fascinating and versatile family of actin regulating proteins. The proteins directly enhance actin filament assembly, but they also organize higher order actin networks and link kinase signaling pathways to actin filament assembly. Thereby, Ena/VASP proteins regulate dynamic cellular processes ranging from membrane protrusions and trafficking, and cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesions, to the generation of mechanical tension and contractile force. Important insights have been gained into the physiological functions of Ena/VASP proteins in platelets, leukocytes, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells and cardiomyocytes. In this review, we summarize the unique and redundant functions of Ena/VASP proteins in cardiovascular cells and discuss the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Zhang W, Wang Y, Hu X, Zhou Z, Zhu Y, Liang X, Yang JL. AMPK Promotes Larval Metamorphosis of Mytilus coruscus. Genes (Basel) 2022; 13:genes13122384. [PMID: 36553651 PMCID: PMC9777882 DOI: 10.3390/genes13122384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2022] [Revised: 11/30/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Metamorphosis is a critical process in the transition from planktonic life to benthic life for marine invertebrates, which is accompanied by a large amount of energy consumption. Previous studies have proved that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), as a vital energy regulator, plays a prominent role in mediating the growth and development of terrestrial animals. However, its function in the growth and development of marine invertebrates, especially in metamorphosis, remains elusive. This study explored the function of AMPK in the larval metamorphosis of Mytilus coruscus. The full-length cDNA of AMPK genes in M. coruscus was cloned and characterized, which is composed of three subunits, McAMPKα, McAMPKβ, and McAMPKγ. Pharmacological tests demonstrated that through the application of an AMPK activator, AMP substantially enhanced the larval metamorphosis rate (p < 0.05). By contrast, the larval metamorphosis rate decreased significantly after being treated with the AMPK inhibitor Compound C (p < 0.05). McAMPK gene knock-down resulted in a reduction in McAMPK gene expression (p < 0.05), and the larval metamorphosis of M. coruscus was significantly restrained (p < 0.05). These results indicated that AMPK signaling is vital in the larval metamorphosis of M. coruscus, which advances further understanding in exploring the molecular mechanisms in the metamorphosis of marine invertebrate larvae.

Changes in the Immunity, Histopathology, and Metabolism of Crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) in Response to Drought. Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12070890.

Abstract
Freshwater ecosystems are among the most threatened ecosystems on Earth. The freshwater biodiversity crisis has caused widespread global concern. Drought as one of the factors causing freshwater biodiversity is still poorly understood. Crayfish is often used in academic research as a biological indicator. In this study, flow cytometry, hematoxylin-eosin staining, and untargeted metabolomics were used to analyze the immune function, histopathology, and metabolism of crayfish under drought conditions. After drought exposure, the total hemocytes count (THC) was significantly decreased (from 8.9 × 105 mL−1 in the control group to 2.2 × 105 mL−1 at day 5). Phagocytosis decreased by 66% after 5 days of drought. The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the hepatopancreas was upregulated. Moreover, histological disorder and metabolism changes in the hepatopancreas were obvious. These results indicate that drought suppresses immune function, disrupts the balance of oxidative and antioxidative systems, and induces tissue damage and metabolic changes in crayfish.

Abstract
Oysters are an excellent biomonitor of coastal pollution and the hyper-accumulator of toxic metals such as copper and zinc (Zn). One unique feature of molluscs is their hemocytes which are mainly involved in immune defenses. Different subpopulations of hemocytes have been identified, but their functions in metal transport and detoxification are not clear. In this study, we examined the immune responses of different subpopulations of oyster Crassostrea hongkongensis hemocytes under different periods of Zn exposure by using flow cytometer and confocal microscopy. In vitro exposure to Zn resulted in acute immune responses by increasing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and phagocytosis and decreased number of granulocytes and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) within 3 h. Granulocyte mortality and lysosomal pH increased whereas glutathione (GSH) decreased within 1 h of in vitro exposure, indicating the immune stimulation of granulocytes. Within the first 7 days of in vivo exposure, immunocompetence of granulocytes was inhibited with increasing granulocyte mortality but decreasing ROS production and phagocytosis. However, with a further extension of Zn exposure to 14 days, both phagocytosis and lysosomal content increased with an increasing number of granulocytes, indicating the increase of hemocyte-mediated immunity. Our study demonstrated that granulocytes played important roles in oyster immune defenses while other subpopulations may also participate in immune functions. The degranulation and granulation due to transition between semigranulocytes and granulocytes after Zn exposure were important in metal detoxification. The study contributed to our understanding of the immune phenomena and the adaptive capability of oysters in metal contaminated environments.

Abstract
Settlement and metamorphosis of planktonic larvae into benthic adults are critical components of a diverse range of marine invertebrate-mediated processes such as the formation of mussel beds and coral reefs, the recruitment of marine shellfisheries, and the initiation of macrobiofouling. Although larval settlement and metamorphosis induced by natural chemical cues is widespread among marine invertebrates, the mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. Here, we identified that the molecular target of adenosine (an inducer of larval settlement and metamorphosis from conspecific adults in the invasive biofouling mussel Mytilopsis sallei) is adenosine kinase (ADK). The results of transcriptomic analyses, pharmacological assays, temporal and spatial gene expression analyses, and siRNA interference, suggest that ATP-dependent phosphorylation of adenosine catalyzed by ADK activates the downstream AMPK-FoxO signaling pathway, inducing larval settlement and metamorphosis in M. sallei. This study not only reveals the role of the ADK-AMPK-FoxO pathway in larval settlement and metamorphosis of marine invertebrates but it also deepens our understanding of the functions and evolution of adenosine signaling, a process that is widespread in biology and important in medicine.

Abstract
Crassostrea hongkongensis (Hong Kong oyster) is an ecologically and economically valuable shellfish endemic to South/Southeast Asia. Due to ocean acidification and warming waters, they have become increasingly vulnerable to invading microbes including Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a significant foodborne human pathogen. In recent years, outbreaks of V. parahaemolyticus have emerged as a perennial phenomenon in parts of the world, necessitating to better understand the biology of host-pathogen interactions in this under-examined marine invertebrate. Although an immunologically relevant autophagy apparatus has been identified in Crassostrea gigas, an evolutionarily close mollusk cousin, the precise mechanistic details of C. hongkongensis autophagy during V. parahaemolyticus infection are still wanting. Here, we compellingly demonstrated that in vivo V. parahaemolyticus challenge robustly triggered autophagic signaling in C. hongkongensis hemocytes peaking at 6 h post-infection, which subsequently promoted bacterial clearance and dampened premature apoptosis. Simultaneously, a large surplus of adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and elevations in reactive oxygen species (ROS, specifically mitochondrial O2– and cellular H2O2) formation were observed post-infection. Extrinsically applied AMP and ROS could synergistically induce AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation to stimulate downstream autophagic events. V. parahaemolyticus infection-induced autophagy was pharmacologically shown to be AMPK-dependent in vivo. Overall, our results establish autophagy as a crucial arm of host defense against Vibrio infections in mollusks, and provide new insights into the underappreciated roles of ROS and AMP as co-regulators of autophagy.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in many biological activities including immune defense against pathogens. In this study, we applied high-throughput sequencing technology to examine miRNAs in Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) infected with Streptococcus iniae at different times. A total of 1038 miRNAs were identified, of which, 249 were novel miRNAs, and 81 showed differential expression (named DEmiRNAs) after S. iniae infection. Of the 81 DEmiRNAs identified, 34 and 58 occurred at 6 h and 24 h post-infection, respectively; most DEmiRNAs were strongly time-specific, and only 13.6% of the DEmiRNAs were shared between the two time points. A total of 9582 target genes were predicted for the 81 DEmiRNAs. The putative target genes were enriched in various GO and KEGG pathways of biological processes and molecular/cellular functions, in particular endocytosis, regulation of transcription, lysososme, and the signaling pathways of MAPK, ErbB, and AMPK. One of the DEmiRNAs, pol-3p-10740_175, was found to target dual specificity phosphatase 6 (Dusp6) and repress the expression of the latter. Transfection of flounder FG cells with pol-3p-10740_175 caused a significant inhibition on S. iniae invasion. The results of this study provided the first S. iniae-induced miRNA profile in Japanese flounder and indicated that flounder miRNAs play an important role in antibacterial immunity.
