Project description:A great number of studies have investigated changes induced by morphine exposure in gene expression using several experimental models. In this study, we examined gene expression changes during chronic exposure to morphine during maturation and differentiation of zebrafish CNS. Our study identified different functional classes of genes and individual candidates involved in the mechanisms underlying susceptibility to morphine actions related to CNS development. These results open new lines to study the treatment of pain and the molecular mechanisms involved in addiction. We also found a set of zebrafish-specific morphine-induced genes, which may be putative targets in human models for addiction and pain processes. Zebrafish embryos were divided into two experimental groups: control embryos and embryos at 5 hpf exposed to 10 nM morphine and collected at 24 hpf (covering the complete embryogenesis). Morphine was administered to the embryos in their water environment, i.e., diluted in E3 embryonic medium. The exposition to begun at the stage of 5 hpf (end of blastula) is continuous, in order to study the chronic effects of the exposure to drug. Microarray experiments were performed using six replicates for each condition, which contained the RNA of approximately one hundred embryos to minimize the influence of potential individual differences between the animals and technical variation introduced by tissue preparation. We previously reported that a concentration of 10 nM morphine is the highest concentration that can be used without a toxic effect on the embryos, and close to 5% of the morphine diluted in the E3 medium is detected in the embryo.

Project description:Although many drugs and environmental chemicals are teratogenic, the mechanisms by which most toxicants disrupt embryonic development are not well understood. microRNAs (miRNAs), single-stranded RNA molecules of ~22 nt that regulate protein expression by inhibiting mRNA translation and promoting mRNA sequestration or degradation, are important regulators of a variety of cellular processes including embryonic development and cellular differentiation. We hypothesized that exposure to xenobiotics can alter miRNA expression and contribute to the mechanisms by which environmental chemicals disrupt embryonic development. To test this hypothesis for one well-known teratogen, we exposed zebrafish embryos to DMSO (0.1%) or TCDD (5 nM) for 1 hr at 30 hours post fertilization (hpf) and measured microRNA expression using several methods at 36 and 60 hpf. TCDD caused strong induction of CYP1A at 36 hpf (62-fold) and 60 hpf (135-fold) as determined by qPCR, verifying the effectiveness of the exposure. microRNA expression profiles were determined using microarrays (Agilent and Exiqon), next-generation sequencing (SOLiD) and real time RT-PCR. The two microarray platforms yielded results that were similar but not identical; both showed significant changes in expression of miR-451, 23a, 23b, 24 and 27e at 60 hpf. Multiple analyses were performed on the SOLiD sequences yielding a total of 16 miRNAs as potentially differentially expressed by TCDD in zebrafish embryos. However, miR-27e was the only miRNA to be identified as differentially expressed by all three methods (both microarrays, SOLiD sequencing, and qPCR). These results suggest that TCDD exposure causes modest changes in expression of microRNAs, including some (miR-451, 23a, 23b, 24 and 27e) that are critical for hematopoiesis and cardiovascular development. Small RNA profiles were deteremined in TCDD exposed zebrafish embryos using SOLID sequencing

Project description:Zebrafish embryos were exposed to 3% glucose (24-72 hpf) and injected 2 nL of BODIPY-FL C12:0 dissolved in canola oil directly into the yolk sac at 24 hpf. At 72 hpf embryos were collected for analysis. Quantitative PCR analysis of glucose exposed embryos demonstrated that glucose exposure activates the insulin pathway while FFA/TAG injection activates the lipolysis and beta-oxidation pathways. At 72 hpf embryos were collected and bulk RNAseq was performed on control, glucose exposed and FFA/TAGs injected embryos.

Project description:We integrate zebrafish embryology with photoactivatable caged morpholinos (cMO), the photoactivatable lineage tracer caged fluorescein-dextran (cFD), fluorescence-activated cell-sorting (FACS) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to identify Spadetail-regulated genes in mesodermal cells enriched for early somite progenitors. 1 to 4-cell stage zebrafish embryos were injected with either cFD alone or in combination with the spt cMO and allowed to develop until 6 hours post-fertilization (hpf). Early ventral somite progenitors were then optically targeted with ultraviolet (360 nm) light using a 100-μm diameter circular diaphragm. Embryos were permitted to develop until 9 hpf, dechorionated, and dissociated into single-cells. Fluorescein-positive cells were then isolated by FACS. Five experimental replicates were performed. Sequencing libraries were then prepared from purified cells according to the CEL-Seq protocol (Hashimshony, T et al. Cell Reports. 2012). In short, total RNA from each sample were individually barcoded and combined prior to sequencing on a HiSeq 2000. Reads were processed and aligned to zebrafish assembly Zv8 using custom CEL-seq scripts within the Galaxy bioinformatics platform. Count files were then analyzed using EdgeR statistical analysis to determine differentially expressed genes.

Project description:To further characterize the roles of cortisol signaling via the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in developing zebrafish, we have used morpholino oligonucleotides to knockdown GR protein translation and measured gene expression in RNA extracted from 24 and 36 hours post fertilization (hpf) embryos. The GR morpholino was characterized previously in Nesan et al., 2012, Endocrinology 181, 35-44) Single-cell zebrafish embryos were microinjected with either active morpholino or mispair control. Embryos were frozen at 24 and 36 hpf and total RNA extracted for microarray analysis. Three independent replicates (different breeding events on separate days) were performed for each treatment per timepoint.

Project description:We used zebrafish embryos as an in vivo system to investigate the role of the microRNA-146 family (consisting of 2 members miR-146a and miR-146b) in the innate immune response to S. typhimurium infection. To determine the role of miR-146 microRNAs in the response to S. typhimurium infection we used Illumina RNA sequencing to compare the mRNA expression profiles of control embryos versus embryos with knockdown of miR-146a and miR-146b. RNA sequencing analysis of miR-146 knockdown embryos showed no major effects on pro-inflammatory gene expression or on the expression of transcriptional regulators and signal transduction components of the immune response. In contrast, apoliprotein-mediated lipid transport emerged as an infection-inducible pathway under miR-146 knockdown conditions, suggesting a function of miR-146 in regulating lipid metabolism during inflammation. Embryos were injected at the one cell stage with a combination of two morpholinos targeting miR-146a and miR-146b, or with the standard control morpholino from GeneTools. Subsequently, at 28 hours post fertilzation (hpf) they were infected by injecting 200-250 colony forming units of S. typhimurium strain SL1027 into the caudal vein, or mock-injected with PBS. RNA was isolated at 8 hours post injection (hpi) for Illumina RNAseq analysis. Two independent experiments were performed for RNAseq analysis of biological duplicates.
