Influence of 20E on mosquito gene expression

ABSTRACT: To examine the effects of 20E treatment on mosquito gene expression, treated mosquito cells were examined by RNA-seq to determine the influence of 20E treatment.

A male-specific steroid hormone controls female reproductive biology in the malaria mosquito

Project description:Insects, unlike vertebrates, are generally believed to lack steroid hormones with functions predominantly associated with adult male biology. In the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae, the ecdysteroid 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) appears to both control egg development in females and induce mating refractoriness and oviposition when sexually transferred by males. Here we show that these sex-specific functions are instead carried out by distinct steroids. We identify a male-specific oxidized form of 20E (3D20E) that upon sexual transfer switches off female mating receptivity, ensuring male paternity. Endogenous female 20E does not induce mating refractoriness, while it triggers oviposition in mated females when expression of a 20E-inhibiting kinase is repressed. 3D20E and 20E have different downstream targets, with 3D20E inducing expression of a tolerance factor that preserves female fitness during Plasmodium infection. The evolution of this male steroid has therefore not only shaped the mating biology of An. gambiae, but also impacted malaria transmission.

Identification of 20E-regulated genes in Drosophila cultured larval organs

Project description:To identify 20E-regulated genes, wandering third instar larvae were dissected and their organs were cultured in the presence of either no hormone, 20E alone, cycloheximide alone, or 20E plus cycloheximide for six hours. Keywords: Hormone response

Expression data from Drosophila S2* cells treated with the steroid hormone 20-hydroxy-ecdysone (20E)

Project description:Previously we and other teams have found that 20E modulates the induction and expression of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in immune-challenged Drosophila cell culture or whole animals. To identify potential downstream targets of 20E involved in modulating the immune response we used Affymetrix gene chips (microarrays) to compare the transcriptomes of Drosophila S2* cells treated or not with 20E for 24 hours. Affymetrix Drosophila 2.0 Chips were probed in triplicate with RNA isolated from untreated S2* cells or cells treated with 1 microMolar 20E (Sigma) for 24 hours. cDNA products were hybridized at the Brown University Genomics Core Facility to Affymetrix GeneChip Drosophila_2.0 Genome Arrays (3 replicate chips per treatment).

20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) induced transcriptional changes in the atrium and spermatheca of female Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes 24 hours after 20E injection compared to ethanol treated controls.

Project description:Male Anophele gambiae mosquitoes transfer the steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) to the female lower reproductive tract during mating. We have shown that this sexually transferred hormone is a key regulator of monandry and oviposition in An. gambiae females. In order to identify possible molecular pathways underlying the effects induced by sexually transferred 20E we investigated the transcriptional response in the atrium and spermatheca at 24 hours after 20E injection in the thorax of virgin females, which delivers to these reproductive tissues 20E levels comparable to those detected after mating. By comparing these results to those of microarrays assessing the post-mating transcriptional response in the female lower reproductive tract (LRT) at 24 hours post copulation, we were able to identify mating responsive genes likely regulated by male transferred 20E. For each experiment atrium and spermatheca were dissected from females 24 hours after 20E or ethanol (10%) injection and transcriptional profiles compared across 4 biological replicates using Agilent two-color microarrays

RNA-seq in primary Harpegnathos neuronal cultures stimulated with 20E or JH3

Project description:We cultured primary Harpegnathos neurons in a medium containing 20E or JH3 and then switched the hormones. RNA-seq was performed 30 minutes, 6 hours, or 24 hours after the switch. To determine baseline expression in the cultures before the switch we also performed RNA-seq on the 6-day-old cultures 30 minues after addition of vehicle (DMSO).
