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:In zebrafish, ovulated oocytes contain both cortisol deposited from the maternal circulation and maternal mRNA for the glucocorticoid receptor (gr mRNA), which is spread as granular structures throughout the central ooplasm. At the 1-cell stage (0.2 hpf), this transcript is relocated by streamers in the blastodisc area and equally partitioned among blastomeres. At 15 hpf, it is replaced by the zygotic transcript. Morpholino knockdown was applied to block translation (grATG1MO or MO2-nr3c1 and grATG2MO or MO3-nr3c1) of both maternal and zygotic gr transcripts, while a missplicing morpholino (grmismMO or MO4-nr3c1) was used to block post-transcriptionally the zygotic transcript alone. MO2-nr3c1 and MO3-nr3c1 (but not MO4-nr3c1) treatment produced craniofacial and caudal malformations in 1-dpf embryos and 5-dpf larvae, which were also affected by pericardial oedema, persistent yolk sac, reduced subintestinal veins, altered neurogenesis and uninflated swim bladder. Such effects were rescued with trout gr2 mRNA. Pangenomic microarray analysis revealed that 114 and 37 highly expressed transcripts were up- and down-regulated, respectively, by maternal GR protein deficiency in 5-hpf embryos. Similar alterations were found at 10 hpf. These effects were confirmed by real-time PCR of 2 up- (casp8, grp1 and igf2a) and 1 down-regulated transcripts (mcm6) evaluated at 4, 8 and 12 hpf. As the contents of transcripts were modified already at 4 hpf, it seems that the lack of GR affects both ways the molecular machinery for the degradation of maternal mRNAs. These results indicate that the maternal gr transcript participates in the maternal programming of zebrafish development. MO2-nr3c1 morphants were compared with MO2-nr3c1-5m morphants at 5 hpf and 10 hpf. MO2-nr3c1 morphants were compared with wild type (WT) at 5 hpf and 10 hpf. MO2-nr3c1 is a morpholino selected to knockdown translation of gr mRNA. MO2-nr3c1-5m is a specific control morpholino.

Project description:The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) regulates gene expression upon activation by glucocorticoid (GC) hormones. In zebrafish, two GR splice variants exist: the canonical GR M-NM-1-isoform (GRM-NM-1), and the GR M-NM-2-isoform (GRM-NM-2). The exact function of GRb remains elusive. We have investigated the transcriptional role of GRa and GRb in the zebrafish embryo model by injecting mebryos with two splice-blocking morpholinos (one leading to knockdown of both GR M-NM-1- and M-NM-2-isoforms, and another targeting the alternative splicing of the GR pre-mRNA in favor of the GR M-NM-2-isoform) and with GRM-NM-2 mRNA (resulting in specific GRM-NM-2 overexpression). Transcriptome profiling was performed on total RNA isolated from 30 hpf embryos. Our results show that GRb does not act as a dominant-negative inhibitor of GRa, and that GRa regulates two distinct gene clusters, which are mainly involved in the metabolism of the embryo. This microarray study was designed to determine the effect of knockdown and overexpression of GRa and GRb. For this purpose, wild type (AB/TL) zebrafish embryos were injected at the 1-2 cell stage with a standard control morpholino (SC-MO), a splice-blocking morpholino leading to knockdown of both GR M-NM-1- and M-NM-2-isoforms (MO1), a splice-blocking morpholino targeting the alternative splicing of the GR pre-mRNA in favor of the GR M-NM-2-isoform (MO2), or GRb mRNA. At 24 hpf, each group was treated with dexamathasone (or vehicle) for 6 hr. This resulted in 8 treament groups: SC-MO/veh, SC-MO/dex, MO1/veh, MO1/dex, MO2/veh, MO2/dex, GRb mRNA/veh, GRb mRNA/dex. After the incubation period, embryos were collected and RNA was isolated from 20 embryos per treatment group (30 hpf). Three individual experiments were performed, and the resulting triplicate samples were analyzed by microarray, using a common reference approach.

Project description:Tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCIPP) is a high-production volume organophosphate flame retardant widely used within the United States. Within zebrafish, initiation of TDCIPP exposure at 0.75 h post-fertilization (hpf) results in genome-wide alterations in methylation during cleavage (2 hpf) as well as epiboly delay or arrest (at higher concentrations) during late-blastula and early-gastrula (4-6 hpf). To determine whether these TDCIPP-induced effects were associated with impacts on the transcriptome, embryos were exposed to vehicle (0.1% DMSO) or 2 μM TDCIPP from 0.75 hpf to 6 hpf, and total RNA was extracted from triplicate embryo pools per treatment and hybridized onto duplicate Affymetrix Zebrafish Gene 1.0 ST Arrays per RNA sample. Based on transcriptome-wide profiling, TDCIPP resulted in a significant impact on biological pathways involved in dorsoventral patterning and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling. Consistent with pathway-level responses, TDCIPP exposure also resulted in strongly dorsalized embryos by 24 hpf – a phenotype that mimicked the effects of dorsomorphin, a potent and selective BMP inhibitor. Moreover, the majority of dorsalized embryos were preceded by epiboly arrest at 6 hpf. Our microarray data also revealed that the expression of sizzled (szl) – a gene encoding a secreted Frizzled-related protein that limits BMP signaling – was significantly decreased by nearly 4-fold at 6 hpf. Therefore, we used a splice-blocking morpholino to test the hypothesis that knockdown of szl phenocopies TDCIPP-induced delays in epiboly progression. Interestingly, contrary to our hypothesis, injection of szl MOs did not affect epiboly progression but, similar to chordin (chd) morphants, resulted in mildly ventralized embryos by 24 hpf. Overall, our findings suggest that TDCIPP-induced epiboly delay may be independent of szl expression and function, and that TDCIPP-induced dorsalization may – similar to dorsomorphin – be due to interference with BMP signaling during early zebrafish.

Project description:In our previous study, we found zebrafish embryos treated with 5uM 11,12-EET (epoxyeicosatrienoic acid) had increased stem cell marker, runx1, expression in the AGM. EET also induced ectopic runx1 expression in the tail. To systematically study how EET regulates gene expression, we performed microarray analysis on EET-treated embryos. Zebrafish whole embryos were synchronized at fertilization. Embryos were grown at 28 degree overnight. 25 embryos per group were treated with DMSO or 5uM 11,12-EET starting from 24 hpf (hour post fertilization) until 36 hpf at 28 degree. The triplicates were from three different clutches of embryos, and split into DMSO v.s. EET for each clutch.
