Project description:A Ruditapes philippinarum microarray platform was developed to identify digestive gland gene expression profiles in response to 100 µg /l and 1000 µg/l ibuprofen exposure. A comparative analysis of gene expression was conducted in Manila clam R.philippinarum exposed to ibuprofen.Clams were exposed for 1, 3, 5 and 7 days to 0, 100 and 1000 µg IBU/l, and digestive gland gene expression were measured. Gene expression profiling was performed using an Manila clam-specific oligo-DNA microarray of 14,156 probes based on single-colour detection (Cyanine-3 only). Microarrays were scanned with Agilent scanner G2565BA (barcode on the left, DNA on the back surface, scanned through the glass) at a resolution of 5 microns; all slides were scanned twice at two different sensitivity settings (XDRHi 100% and XDRLo 10%); the scanner software created a unique ID for each pair of XDR scans and saved it to both scan image files. Feature Extraction (FE) 9.5 used XDR ID to link the pairs of scans together automatically when extracting data. The signal left after all the FE processing steps have been completed is ProcessedSignal that contains the Multiplicatively Detrended, Background-Subtracted Signal.

Project description:The winged pearl oyster, Pteria penguin, is a widely distributed and economically important bivalve with unique and primitive byssus. The byssogensis of this species is largely unknown. Here we report the lable free quantification analysis on different tissues of P. penguin.Through the analysis, we found that the process of byssogenesis requires ATP to provide energy among the differential proteins; and seven (Tenascin-X, laminin, papilin, fibrillin-1, spondin, protease inhibitors and Mucins) of the 31 proteins identified in the byssus were derived from ECM. Functions of extracellular matrix proteins can be correlated with the formation and the nature of the byssus.

Project description:We performed the first quantitative proteomics analysis of differences between striated (fast) and catch (slow) adductor muscle in Yesso scallop (Patinopecten yessoensis), with the goal to uncover muscle specific genes and proteins, as well as enzymes of metabolic pathways in fast and slow adductor muscle of scallops. The present findings highlight the functional roles of muscle contractile proteins, calcium signaling pathways, membrane and extracellular matrix proteins, and glycogen metabolism involved in the different contractile and metabolic properties between fast and slow muscles. The present findings will help better understand the molecular basis underlying muscle contraction and its physiological regulation in invertebrates.

Project description:The contamination of marine ecosystems with microplastics, such as the polymer polyethylene, a commonly used component of single-use packaging, is of global concern. Although it has been suggested that biodegradable polymers, such as polylactic acid, may be used to replace some polyethylene packaging, little is known about their effects on marine organisms. Blue mussels, Mytilus edulis, have become a “model organism” for investigating the effects of microplastics in marine ecosystems. We show here that repeated exposure, over a period of 52 days in an outdoor mesocosm setting, of M. edulis to polyethylene microplastics reduced the number of byssal threads produced and the attachment strength (tenacity) by ~50%. Exposure to either type of microplastic altered the haemolymph proteome and, although a conserved response to microplastic exposure was observed, overall polyethylene resulted in more changes to protein abundances than polylactic acid. Many of the proteins affected are involved in vital biological processes, such as immune- and stress- regulation, metabolism and cellular and structural development. Our study highlights the utility of mass spectrometry-based proteomics to assess the health of key marine organisms and identifies the potential mechanisms by which microplastics, both conventional and biodegradable, could affect their ability to form and maintain reefs.

Project description:The Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) is a cultured bivalve species with high worldwide commercial importance. Nevertheless, diseases can cause high economical losses. For this reason, the study of immune genes in bivalve mollusks has increased in the last years. The present work describes the construction of the first R. philippinarum microarray containing immune-related hemocyte sequences and its application for the study of the gene transcription profiles of hemocytes from clams challenged with Vibrio alginolyticus through a time course. A comparative analysis of gene expression was conducted between R. philippinarum infected and non-infected by V. alginolyticus clam hemocytes. Clams (n=100) were notched in the shell next to the adductor muscles and injected with 100 µl of Vibrio alginolyticus, strain TA15, (10^8 UFC/ml in PBS) to mimic an intramuscular infection. Controls (n=100) were injected with 100 µl of PBS. After stimulation, clams were returned to the tanks and maintained at 15ºC until sampling at 3, 8, 24, and 72 hours after challenge Hemolymph (1 ml) was withdrawn from the adductor muscle of the clams with a 0.5mm diameter (25G) disposable needle. Hemolymph from four individuals was pooled and biological replicates were taken at each sampling point. Hemolymph was centrifuged at 4°C at 3000 g for 10 minutes. The pellet was resuspended in 250 µl of Trizol (Invitrogen). Total RNA isolation was conducted following the manufacturer's specifications in combination with the RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen) for RNA purification after DNase I treatment. Gene expression profiling was performed using an R. philippinarum oligo-DNA microarray of 13,671 probes based on single-colour detection (Cyanine-3 only). Microarrays were scanned with Agilent scanner G2565BA at a resolution of 5 microns; all slides were scanned twice at two different sensitivity settings (XDRHi 100% and XDRLo 10%); the scanner software created a unique ID for each pair of XDR scans and saved it to both scan image files.

Project description:Detection of the altered expression of inflammation associated genes in patients’ blood can provide information regarding the stage of atherosclerotic plaque without undergoing invasive procedures. In the current study, the expression levels of miRNAs within the early stage and advanced stage atherosclerotic plaques was compared with left internal mammary tissue. Each of these tissues was obtained from 8 patients (males-5, females-3), aged 55-80 years, undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Total RNA was isolated using Qiagen miRNeasy Mini Kit. The RNAs from the similar tissue types of 4 patients were pooled together to make one sample for one batch to be sequenced. Similarly, the RNAs from the same tissue type of remaining 4 patients were pooled together to be used as second biological repeat for that tissue. Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA Array v. 4.0.platform was used to analyze miRNA expression.

Project description:Blue mussel larvae were fed, in a first group, a balanced diet of essential fatty acids (EFAs) provided by a cocktail diet (COC) from three algal species. Larvae were cultured in three separate tanks from hatching, 0 day post-fertilization (DPF) until 42 DPF. Treated larvae were fed a deficient diet (Tiso) that contains low levels of arachidonic acid (AA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), two EFAs necessary for larval development, performance, and survival. The goal is to identify coordinated patterns of gene expression and understand their predictive function in relation to growth and mortality during early developmental stages of the blue mussel Mytilus edulis. In order to understand the mechanisms by which growth and survival drive an organism to the full range of its adaptation, we de novo assembled of the mussel transcriptome during early development using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, then designed customized microarrays targeting every developmental stage, which encompass major transitions in tissue organization of the fast-evolved blue mussel Two experimental conditions, COC and Tiso diets. Biological replicates 3 culture replicate per stage of development for 5 stages of development. Eggs and trocophore larvae did not undertake treatments

Project description:Marine biomonitoring programs in the U.S. and Europe have historically relied on monitoring tissue concentrations of bivalves to monitor contaminant levels and ecosystem health. By integrating M-bM-^@M-^Xomic methods with these tissue residue approaches we can uncover mechanistic insight to help link tissue concentrations to toxic effects. In an effort to identify novel biomarkers and better understand the molecular toxicology of metal bioaccumulation in bivalves, we exposed the blue mussel, Mytilus edulis L., to sub-lethal concentrations (0.54 M-oM-^AM--M) of cadmium, lead, and a Cd+Pb mixture. Metal concentrations were measured in gill tissues at 1, 2, and 4 weeks, and increased linearly over the 4 week duration. In addition, there was evidence that Pb interfered with Cd uptake in the mixture treatment. Using a 3025 sequence microarray for M. edulis, we performed transcriptomic analysis, identifying 57 differentially expressed sequences. Hierarchical clustering of these sequences successfully distinguished the different treatment groups demonstrating that the expression profiles were reproducible among the treatments. Enrichment analysis of gene ontology terms identified several biological processes that were perturbed by the treatments, including nucleoside phosphate biosynthetic processes, mRNA metabolic processes, and response to stress. To identify transcripts whose expression level correlated with metal bioaccumulation, we performed Pearson correlation analysis. Several transcripts correlated with gill metal concentrations including mt10, mt20, and contig 48, an unknown transcript containing a wsc domain. In addition, three transcripts directly involved in the Unfolded protein response (UPR) were induced in the metal treatments at 2 weeks and were further up-regulated at 4 weeks. Overall, correlation of tissue concentrations and gene expression responses indicates that as mussels accumulate higher concentrations of metals, initial stress responses are mobilized to protect tissues. However, given the role of UPR in apoptosis, it serves as an early indicator of stress, which once overwhelmed will result in adverse physiological effects. A total of 52 samples including initial samples and 3 time-points following exposure to cadmium, lead, or a mixture. There were four replicate samples for each treatment and time-point. An additional three replicate samples were used for RT-qPCR.
