Project description:Common carp is one of the main commercial fishes captured and cultured worldwide. Although common carp genome is not finished yet, this study provides a first large scale cloning and characterization of common carp miRNAs and their potential targets. These miRNAs add to the growing database of new miRNA and lay the foundation for further understanding of miRNA function in gene regulation of common carp.

Project description:Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) has been manufactured for over 50 years in increasing quantities and has been used for several industrial and commercial aims. Due to the persistence and the bioaccumulation of this pollutant, it can be found worldwide in wildlife and humans. Biochemical effects of PFOS exposure are mainly studied in mammalian model species and information about effects on fish species remain largely scarce. This lack of toxicity data points out that there is an urgent need for the mechanistic molecular understanding of the mode of action of this pollutant. In the present study, common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was exposed through water for 14 days at concentrations of 0.1; 0.5 and 1 mg/l PFOS. Liver was selected as target tissue. Custom microarrays were constructed from cDNA libraries obtained with Suppression Subtractive Hybridization-Polymerase chain reaction (SSH-PCR) experiments. Microarray data revealed that the expression of several genes in the liver was influenced by PFOS exposure and real-time PCR was used to confirm these gene expression changes. The affected genes were mainly involved in energy metabolism, reproduction and stress response. Furthermore, the relative condition factor and the hepatosomatic index of the exposed fish were significantly lower after 14 days of exposure as well as the available glycogen reserves. At all levels of biological organization, indications of a trade-off between the metabolic cost of toxicant exposure on one hand and processes vital to the survival of the organism on the other hand were seen. Our results support the prediction that increases in energy expenditure negatively affects processes vital to the survival of an organism, such as growth. Keywords: PFOS, common carp, microarray, condition factor, energy reserves, metabolic cost

For each biological replicate control versus exposed hybridizations were carried out. The mean of the biological replicates was calculated for the differentially expressed genes.

Although common carp genome is not finished yet, this study provides a first large scale cloning and characterization of common carp miRNAs and their potential targets. These miRNAs add to the growing database of new miRNA and lay the foundation for further understanding of miRNA function in gene regulation of common carp. We constructed a small RNA library from 17 Cyprinus carpio samples.

Project description:purpose?To elucidate the relationship of utilization different type of diets in fish method?enzyme activity determination and transcriptome sequencing were performed in common carp fed with single animal diet group (group AD), plant diet group (group PD) and mix diets group (group MD). Group MD as control group results? 916 and 1296 differentially expressed genes were identified between group AD vs MD and PD vs MD. Protein digestion and absorption, bile secretion, hematopoietic cell lineage and intestinal immune network for IgA production pathways were significantly differentially expressed between common carp fed with single type of diet and mix diets. Conclusion?common carp fed with mix diets had stronger immunity than common carp fed with single type of diets.
