Genome-wide analysis of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter in Penaeus vannamei and identification of two ABC genes involved in immune defense against Vibrio parahaemolyticus by affecting NF-κB signaling pathway. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 262:129984. [PMID: 38342260 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/13/2024]
Abstract
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters have crucial roles in various biological processes such as growth, development and immune defense in eukaryotes. However, the roles of ABC transporters in the immune system of crustaceans remain elusive. In this study, 38 ABC genes were systematically identified and characterized in Penaeus vannamei. Bioinformation analysis revealed that PvABC genes were categorized into ABC A-H eight subfamilies with 17 full-transporters, 11 half transporters and 10 soluble proteins, and multiple immunity-related cis-elements were found in gene promoter regions. Expression analysis showed that most PvABC genes were widely and highly expressed in immune-related tissues and responded to the stimulation of Vibrio parahaemolyticus. To investigate whether PvABC genes mediated innate immunity, PvABCC5, PvABCF1 and PvABCB4 were selected for dsRNA interference experiment. Knockdown of PvABCF1 and PvABCC5 not PvABCB4 increased the cumulative mortality of P. vannamei and bacterial loads in hepatopancreas after infection with V. parahaemolyticus. Further analysis showed that the PvABCF1 and PvABCC5 knockdown decreased expression levels of NF-κB pathway genes and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Collectively, these findings indicated that PvABCF1 and PvABCC5 might restrict V. parahaemolyticus challenge by positively regulating NF-κB pathway and then promoting the expression of AMPs, which would contribute to overall understand the function of ABC genes in innate immunity of invertebrates.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 133:108557. [PMID: 36669602 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.108557] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The emergence of the microsporidian, Enterocytospora artemiae, has caused serious economic losses to the aquaculture industry of Palaemonetes sinensis. The hepatopancreas is the main digestive and immune organ of P. sinensis, and the main site of E. artemiae infection. We used next-generation sequencing to determine the effects of E. artemiae parasitism on the hepatopancreas of P. sinensis at the transcriptome level. The hepatopancreas of P. sinensis was parasitized by E. artemiae, and 881 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained, of which 643 were upregulated and 238 were downregulated. These DEGs are mainly involved in DNA replication, transcription, translation, immunity, and metabolism. Among them, the cellular processes of DNA replication, transcription and translation are significantly strengthened, which may be related to the use of host ATP and nucleic acid by E. artemiae to achieve proliferation and damage to host cells to enhance DNA replication and repair. Moreover, to defend against E. artemiae, some immune genes related to antioxidation, such as glutathione metabolism, seleno compound metabolism, and cytochrome p450 2L1, were significantly upregulated, but simultaneously, tumor necrosis factor, NF-κB inhibitor α, and other immune-related genes were significantly down regulated, indicating that the parasitism of E. artemiae led to a significant decline in the immune defense ability of P. sinensis. From the perspective of metabolism, the metabolism-related DEGs of retinol, glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism, were significantly downregulated, resulting in insufficient nutrient absorption and decreased energy supply of the P. sinensis, which in turn affected their growth. The differential genes and pathways identified in this study can provide a reference basis to further elucidate the pathogenic mechanism of P. sinensis infected with E. artemiae and the prevention and control of microsporidia disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An excessive inflammatory response accompanies the pathogenesis of spinal cord injury (SCI) and has been found to be promoted by inflammasomes in a variety of disease models. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that also regulates nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-dependent neuroinflammation. However, little is known regarding the effects and molecular mechanisms underlying the role of dopamine in SCI. METHODS Functional recovery in mice was assessed with the Basso Mouse Scale (BMS). Neuronal loss was evaluated with immunochemical staining of NeuN. Pyroptosis was assessed with immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry, western blotting, and cell viability and cytotoxicity assays. RESULTS Dopamine was significantly associated with enhanced locomotor recovery after SCI, and with decreased NLRP3 inflammasome activation, pyroptosis, neuronal loss and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. In vitro data suggested that dopamine suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome activation and pyroptosis, and decreased pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. CONCLUSIONS Dopamine may be a novel approach for alleviating secondary damage after SCI.

Abstract
Tea tree oil (TTO) is a pure natural plant essential oil. The studies evaluated the hepatopancreas lipid metabolism and antioxidant efficacy of Macrobrachium rosenbergii fed with 0 (CT group) and 100 mg/kg TTO (TT group) by label-free quantification proteomic analysis. Compared to the CT group, the TT group improved growth performance and increased the survival rate after stress. Dietary TTO also decreased hemolymph AST and ALT activities and decreased hepatopancreatic vacuolation. At the same time, hepatopancreas lipids droplets and hemolymph lipids (TG, TC, LDL-C) were decreased, and the peroxidation products content (MDA, LPO, 4-HNE) was also decreased. In addition, the levels of hepatopancreas antioxidant enzymes (T-AOC, CAT, and SOD) were increased in the TT group. With proteomic analysis, a total of 151 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) (99 up-regulated and 52 down-regulated) were identified in the hepatopancreas. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and protein-protein interaction analysis showed that the 16 DEPs have interactions, which are mainly involved in the pathways related to lipid metabolism (fatty acid biosynthesis, fatty acid metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism) and redox reaction (cytochrome P450 enzyme systems). Furthermore, the mRNA expression of 15 proteins followed the proteomic analysis with qRT-PCR validation. Pearson correlation analysis showed that fatty acids and glycerophospholipid metabolism-related proteins were highly correlated to peroxide content, glycerophospholipid metabolism, and cytochrome P450 system-related proteins (CYP1A1, GSTT1, GPX4) were highly correlated to AST and ALT. Additionally, GPX4 is closely related to peroxide content and antioxidant enzyme activity. Our results revealed that TTO plays a protective role in the hepatopancreas targeting the critical enzymes and antioxidant reactions in lipid metabolism. Provides a new perspective to elucidate the action path of TTO in protecting invertebrate hepatopancreas, highlights the influence of lipid metabolism on hepatopancreas health and the interaction between lipid metabolism and antioxidant system in the regulation of TTO.

COMPARATIVE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY. PART D, GENOMICS & PROTEOMICS 2022; 42:100963. [PMID: 35131601 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbd.2022.100963] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2021] [Revised: 12/30/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
During rearing in hatcheries and transportation to restocking sites, sea cucumbers are often exposed to air for several hours, which may depress their non-specific immunity and lead to mass mortality. We performed transcriptome analysis of Apostichopus japonicus coelomocytes after air exposure to identify stress-related genes and pathways. After exposure to air for 1 h, individuals were re-submerged in aerated seawater and coelomocytes were collected at 0, 1, 4, and 16 h (B, H1, H4, and H16, respectively). We identified 6148 differentially expressed genes, of which 3216 were upregulated and 2932 were downregulated. Many genes involved in the immune response, antioxidant defense, and apoptosis were highly induced in response to air exposure. Enrichment analysis of Gene Ontology terms showed that the most abundant terms in the biological process category were oxidation-reduction process, protein folding and phosphorylation, and receptor-mediated endocytosis for the comparison of H1 vs. B, H4 vs. H1, and H16 vs. H4, respectively. Kyoto Eecyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis showed that six pathways related to the metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates were shared among the three comparisons. These results indicated that sea cucumbers regulate the expression of genes related to the antioxidant system and energy metabolism to resist the negative effects of air exposure stress. These findings may be applied to optimize juvenile sea cucumber production, and facilitate molecular marker-assisted selective breeding of an anoxia-resistant strain.

Abstract
Neocaridina denticulate sinensis is a promising crustacean model species due to its merits in raising and breeding. However, its molecular responses to copper remains largely unknown. In the present research, RNA-seq was used to mine the alteration in transcriptome of N. denticulate sinensis hepatopancreas under copper exposure. A total of 16,423 DEGs was identified between control and Cu2+ treatment groups. GO enrichment analysis of all DEGs suggested down-regulated genes exceeded up-regulated genes in all the significantly enriched terms, except for RNA polymerase III complex (GO:0005666). KEGG analysis showed Cu exposure only induced two significantly enriched pathways, including Phagosome (ko04145) and Pathogenic Escherichia coli infection (ko05130). Besides, pattern recognition receptors as Toll, lectin B, CTL1 and SRB, AMPs as crustin type I, lysozyme, and NOS were down-regulated after Cu2+ exposure, while hemocyanin, MT, HSP70 and HSP90 were significantly up-regulated, implying these molecules may play vital role in Cu2+ detoxification of N. denticulate sinensis. Our results here provide research direction of heavy metal detoxification of N. denticulate sinensis, simultaneously enriched its genomic information.

Abstract
As a common aquatic pathogen, Vibrio parahaemolyticus can cause a variety of diseases of shrimp, especially acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), which leads to great losses to the aquaculture industry around the world. However, the molecular mechanism of V. parahaemolyticus infection is still unclear. Neocaridina denticulate sinensis is a kind of small ornamental shrimp that is popular in aquarium trade, and due to its tenacious vitality, rapid growth, high reproductive capacity, it is very suitable to be developed as an animal model for basic research on decapod crustaceans. Thus, in this paper, transcriptomes of N. denticulate sinensis hepatopancreas with or without V. parahaemolyticus injection were explored. The results showed that a total of 23,624 genes with the N50 of 2705 bp were obtained. Comparative transcriptomic analysis revealed 21,464 differentially expressed genes between the V. parahaemolyticus infected and non-infected group, of which, 11,127 genes were up-regulated and 10,337 genes were down-regulated. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that many DEGs enriched in immune related pathways, including MAPK signaling pathway, Phosphatidylinositol signaling system, Chemokine signaling pathway, Phagosome and Jak-STAT signaling pathway and so on. Eight genes were selected randomly for qRT-PCR to verify the transcriptome sequencing results and the results showed the expression of these genes were consistent with the transcriptome results. Our work provides a unique and important dataset that contributes to the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the immune response to V. parahaemolyticus infection and may further provide the basis for the prevention and resolution of bacterial diseases.

The exploration of neuroendocrine regulation of crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) on innate immunity of Litopenaeus vannamei under ammonia-N stress. Mol Immunol 2021; 139:50-64. [PMID: 34454185 DOI: 10.1016/j.molimm.2021.08.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2021] [Revised: 08/06/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
To unveil the neuroendocrine-immune (NEI) mechanism of crustaceans under high ambient ammonia-N, crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) in L. vannamei was knocked down under 20 mg/L ammonia-N exposure. The results showed that the expression of CHH in the eyestalks decreased significantly when CHH was silenced. After CHH was knocked down, the levels of CHH, ACh, DA, NE, and 5-HT in the haemolymph decreased significantly. Correspondingly, the expressions of GC, ACh7R, DM1, DA1R, and 5-HT7R in haemocytes down-regulated significantly, while DA4R and α2AR up-regulated significantly. Besides, the expression of Toll3 reduced significantly. And significantly changes occurred in the levels of G protein effectors (AC and PLC), second messengers (cAMP, cGMP, CaM, and DAG), protein kinases (PKA, PKC and PKG), and nuclear transcription factors (CREB, Dorsal, Relish and NKRF). Furthermore, immune defense proteins (BGBP and PPO3, Crustin A, ALF, LYC, TNFα, and IL-16), phagocytosis-related proteins (Cubilin, Integrin, Peroxinectin, Mas-like protein, and Dynamin-1) and exocytosis-related proteins (SNAP-25, VAMP-2 and Syntaxin) changed significantly. Eventually, a significant decrease in the levels of THC, haemocytes phagocytosis rate, plasma PO, antibacterial and bacteriolytic activities was detected. Therefore, these results indicate that under ammonia-N stress, the combination of CHH and GC mainly affects exocytosis of shrimp through the cGMP-PKG-CREB pathway. Simultaneously, CHH stimulates the release of biogenic amines, and then activate G protein effectors after binding to their specific receptors, to regulate exocytosis mainly via the cAMP-PKA-CREB pathway and influence phagocytosis primarily by the cAMP-PKA-NF-κB pathway. CHH can enhance ACh, and then activate G protein effectors after binding to the receptors, and finally regulate exocytosis mainly through the cAMP-PKA-CREB pathway and regulate phagocytosis by the cAMP-PKA-NF-κB pathway. CHH can also promote Toll3-NF-κB pathway, thereby affecting the expressions of immune defense factors. This study contributes to a further understanding of the NEI mechanism of crustacean in response to environmental stress.

[PMID: 34091091 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2021.104294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2021] [Revised: 05/10/2021] [Accepted: 05/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
In this compilation we collect information about the main protein components in hemolymph and stress the continued interest in their study. The reasons for such an attention span several areas of biological, veterinarian and medical applications: from the notions for better dealing with the species - belonging to phylum Arthropoda, subphylum Crustacea, and to phylum Mollusca - of economic interest, to the development of 'marine drugs' from the peptides that, in invertebrates, act as antimicrobial, antifungal, antiprotozoal, and/or antiviral agents. Overall, the topic most often on focus is that of innate immunity operated by classes of pattern-recognition proteins. SIGNIFICANCE: The immune response in invertebrates relies on innate rather than on adaptive/acquired effectors. At a difference from the soluble and membrane-bound immunoglobulins and receptors in vertebrates, the antimicrobial, antifungal, antiprotozoal and/or antiviral agents in invertebrates interact with non-self material by targeting some common (rather than some highly specific) structural motifs. Developing this paradigm into (semi) synthetic pharmaceuticals, possibly optimized through the modeling opportunities offered by computational biochemistry, is one of the lessons today's science may learn from the study of marine invertebrates, and specifically of the proteins and peptides in their hemolymph.

Influences of dietary vitamin D 3 on growth, antioxidant capacity, immunity and molting of Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) larvae. J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol 2021; 210:105862. [PMID: 33675950 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsbmb.2021.105862] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2020] [Revised: 02/25/2021] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
This study investigates the effects of vitamin D3 (VD3) on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immunity and molting of larval Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis. A total of 6,000 larvae (7.52 ± 0.10 mg) were fed with six isonitrogenous and isolipidic experimental diets with different levels of dietary VD3 (0, 3000, 6000, 9000, 12000 and 36000 IU/kg) respectively for 23 days. The highest survival and molting frequency were found in crabs fed 6000 IU/kg VD3. Weight gain, specific growth rate, and carapace growth significantly increased in crabs fed 3000 and 6000 IU/kg VD3 compared to the control. Broken-line analysis of molting frequency, weight gain and specific growth rate against dietary VD3 levels indicates that the optimal VD3 requirement for larval crabs is 4825-5918 IU/kg. The highest whole-body VD3 content occurred in the 12000 IU/kg VD3 group, and the 25-dihydroxy VD3 content decreased with the increase of dietary VD3. The malonaldehyde content was lower than the control. Moreover, the superoxide dismutase activity, glutathione peroxidase and total antioxidant capacity of crab fed 6000 IU/kg VD3 were significantly higher than in control. Crabs fed 9000 IU/kg showed the highest survival after 120 h of salinity stress, and the relative mRNA expressions indicate vitamin D receptor (VDR) is the important regulatory element in molting and innate immunity. The molting-related gene expressions showed that the response of crab to salinity was self-protective. This study would contribute to a new understanding of the molecular basis underlying molting and innate immunity regulation by vitamin D3 in E. sinensis.

Proteomic analysis of hemocyte reveals the immune regulatory mechanisms after the injection of corticosteroid-releasing hormone in mud crab Scylla Paramamosain. J Proteomics 2021; 242:104238. [PMID: 33930554 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2021.104238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2021] [Accepted: 04/09/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Corticosteroid-releasing hormone (CRH) is a crucial neuroendocrine-immune factor regulating the immune response of Scylla paramamosain. To understand the regulatory mechanisms of CRH in S. paramamosain, the hemolymph of S. paramamosain with injection of CRH (1.5 ng/crab) at 24 h were chosen to perform proteomic analysis in this study. Furthermore, quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR) method was used to validate the accuracy of proteomic data at 24 h after CRH injection. The proteomic data showed that 255 DEPs were identified, in which 231 and 24 were up- or down-regulated, respectively. Besides, the results of enriched pathways showed that the DEPs were involved in signaling pathways, cellular immunity, humoral immunity and the response of immune related processes. These results revealed that CRH promoted the activation of signal transduction, regulated immune systems and antioxidation, and enhanced the immune related processes (such as protein synthesis, protein transport, carbohydrate mobilization and energy redistribution). These findings will benefit to foster the understanding on the effects of glucocorticoids on neuroendocrine-immune (NEI) networks of crustacean, and supply a substantial material and foundation for further researching of the NEI response. SIGNIFICANCE: Corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) is a 41-amino acid neuropeptide and has been preliminarily studied in aquatic animals. CRH can regulate many important physiological activities comprising protein synthesis, energy metabolism, growth, breeding and behavior in fish, which play an important roles in neuroendocrine-immune (NEI) regulatory network of fish. The neuroendocrine system of crustacean has a primary research, that inspired by fish NEI network. Despite the research on the neuroendocrine system in crustacean has rapidly increased in recent years, our understanding of the regulation between neuroendocrine system and immune system in crustacean is still limited. The research on the strategy of NEI network in crustaceans becomes a significant issue. In the present study, the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) technology approach were applied to examine the NEI network of Scylla Paramamosain. control group and treatment group (CRH: 1.5 ng/crab) were settled for the iTRAQ experiment, and sampled at 24 h after CRH injection. The study aimed to gain knowledge on the immune response in Scylla Paramamosain after CRH injection and identify related differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) of the crab. The results of this study provide a preliminary resource for analysis the immune mechanism for crustaceans. In general, our work represents the first report of the utilization of the iTRAQ proteomics method for the study of NEI regulatory network in Scylla Paramamosain after CRH injection. We identified a number of DEPs involved in diverse pathways including immune signaling pathways, cellular immunity, humoral immunity, immune related process. These results demonstrated a very complex network involving immune and multiple related metabolic pathways in hemocytes of Scylla Paramamosain and will be of great value in understanding the crab neuroendocrine-immune immune mechanism.

Abstract
To gain knowledge on the immune response in Scylla paramamosain under low salinity challenge, S. paramamosain we investigated digital gene expression (DEG) in S. paramamosain hemocytes using the deep-sequencing platform Illumina Hiseq XTen. A total of 97,257 high quality unigenes with mean length 786.59 bp were found to be regulated by low salinity challenge, among which 93 unigenes were significantly up regulated, and 71 were significantly down regulated. Functional categorization and pathways analysis of differentially expressed genes revealed that immune signaling pathway including cAMP and cGMP signaling pathway were affected in low salinity stress. Cellular immunity-related genes including low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6) and xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) were down-regulated, indicating phagocytosis and oxygen dependent mechanism of phagocyte were suppressed in low salinity stress; Humoral immunity-related genes serine proteases and serpins 3 were up- and down-regulated, respectively, suggest that the proPO system was influenced by low salinity significantly; Moreover, processes related to immune response including carbohydrate metabolism, protein synthesis and lipid transport were found differentially regulated, implying the integrity of the immune response in low salinity stress. This study gained comprehensive insights on the immune mechanism of S. paramamosain at low salinity stress at the molecular level. The findings provide a theoretical basis for understanding immune mechanisms of S. paramamosain under low salinity stress, and technical reference for evaluating physiological adaptation in fresh water environment.

Abstract
Carotenoids are known to be involved in the regulation of the antioxidative capability, immune response and stress resistance in crustacean species; however, very limited information is available on their underlying molecular mechanisms. This study performed transcriptome sequencing of hemolymph and hepatopancreas of juvenile Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis) that fed with three diets, i.e. diet A containing 90 mg kg-1 dry weight of astaxanthin, diet B containing 200 mg kg-1 dry weight of β-carotene and control diet without supplementation of dietary carotenoids. The results showed that there were 2955 and 497 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the hemolymph between the astaxanthin treatment and control groups, and between the β-carotene treatment and control groups, respectively. Moreover, compared with the control group, 833 and 1886 DEGs were obtained in the hepatopancreas of the astaxanthin treatment and the β-carotene treatment groups, respectively. The DEGs in the three groups were enriched in 255 specific KEGG metabolic pathways according to KEGG enrichment analysis. Through this study, a series of key genes involved in Nrf2 signalling, ROS production, intracellular antioxidant enzymes and chaperones were significantly affected by dietary carotenoids. Dietary carotenoids also significantly altered the expression levels of immune-related molecules associated with signal transduction, prophenoloxidase cascade, apoptosis, pattern recognition proteins/receptors and antimicrobial peptides. In conclusion, this transcriptomic study provides valuable information for understanding the molecular mechanism and potential pathway of dietary carotenoids improved the antioxidative capability and immunity of juvenile E. sinensis.

Abstract
Neocaridina denticulate sinensis is a small freshwater economic shrimp, as well as excellent laboratory model for their short life cycle and easy availability. However, the response of N. denticulate sinensis to pervasive copper pollution in aquatic environments has not been deeply investigated yet. Herein, we preformed Illumina sequencing technology to mine the alterations of cephalothorax transcriptome under 2.5 μmol/L of Cu2+ after 48 h. 122,512 unigenes were assembled and 219 unigenes were identified as significantly differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between control and Cu2+ treatment groups. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that DEGs were mostly associated with immune responses and molting, such as endocytosis, Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis and chitin metabolic process. Seven genes were chosen for qPCR verification, and the results showed that the transcriptome sequencing data were consistent with the qPCR results. This is the first report of transcriptome information about N. denticulate sinensis. These results provided a direction for the future research of resistance to Cu2+ in this shrimp, and simultaneously enriched gene information of N. denticulate sinensis.

BMC Genomics 2020; 21:559. [PMID: 32795331 PMCID: PMC7430823 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-020-06965-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Accepted: 07/30/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Mud crab, Scylla paramamosain, a euryhaline crustacean species, mainly inhabits the Indo-Western Pacific region. Wild mud crab spawn in high-salt condition and the salinity reduced with the growth of the hatching larvae. When the larvae grow up to megalopa, they migrate back to estuaries and coasts in virtue of the flood tide, settle and recruit adult habitats and metamorphose into the crablet stage. Adult crab can even survive in a wide salinity of 0–35 ppt. To investigate the mRNA profile after salinity stress, S. paramamosain megalopa were exposed to different salinity seawater (low, 14 ppt; control, 25 ppt; high, 39 ppt). Results Firstly, from the expression profiles of Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter, chloride channel protein 2, and ABC transporter, it turned out that the 24 h might be the most influenced duration in the short-term stress. We collected megalopa under different salinity for 24 h and then submitted to mRNA profiling. Totally, 57.87 Gb Clean Data were obtained. The comparative genomic analysis detected 342 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The most significantly DEGs include gamma-butyrobetaine dioxygenase-like, facilitated trehalose transporter Tret1, sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase subunit alpha, rhodanese 1-like protein, etc. And the significantly enriched pathways were lysine degradation, choline metabolism in cancer, phospholipase D signaling pathway, Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis, and sphingolipid signaling pathway. The results indicate that in the short-term salinity stress, the megalopa might regulate some mechanism such as metabolism, immunity responses, osmoregulation to adapt to the alteration of the environment. Conclusions This study represents the first genome-wide transcriptome analysis of S. paramamosain megalopa for studying its stress adaption mechanisms under different salinity. The results reveal numbers of genes modified by salinity stress and some important pathways, which will provide valuable resources for discovering the molecular basis of salinity stress adaptation of S. paramamosain larvae and further boost the understanding of the potential molecular mechanisms of salinity stress adaptation for crustacean species.

Abstract
Innate immunity plays an important role in invertebrates because it provides the first line of protection by recognizing invading microbial pathogens and then activating downstream signaling pathways. However, until now, increasing reports of clam diseases did not include those of Anadara sativa, which are widely distributed and economically important maritime clams. In the present study, transcriptome libraries of untreated (termed H) and Vibrio anguillarum-challenged (termed HV) A. sativa hepatopancreases were constructed and sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq4000 platform. In total, we obtained 78,012,510 and 84,937,516 clean reads from 80,006,030 to 86,871,742 raw data reads, respectively, assembled by different software programs. Furthermore, 150,274 unigenes were generated from 196,003 transcripts, with an N50 length of 1088 bp, and then annotated with the SwissProt, NR, NT, PFAM, KO, GO, KOG and KEGG databases. Moreover, 3982 differentially expressed unigenes (H vs HV) were determined, with 3583 upregulated and 399 downregulated genes. Among these differentially expressed unigenes, 207 unigenes were found using KEGG annotation in 16 immune-related signaling pathways, such as Toll-like receptor (TLR), NOD-like receptor (NLR), and RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling pathways. Finally, we selected 11 full-length TLRs and classified them into 3 groups, namely, one V-TLR, four Ls-TLR and six sP-TLR; furthermore, we validated the increased expression patterns of the 11 TLRs in response to LPS injection. In summary, these results revealed multiple findings on potential immune-related genes, such as the differential expression analysis and annotation based on the A. sativa transcriptome in response to V. anguillarum stimulation, and explored the molecular and expression characterization of A. sativa TLRs, which provide new insights into the innate immune responses and defense mechanisms in shellfish.
