Project description:Adult female three-spined stickleback fish (Gasterosteus aculeatus) were exposed to 10 individual chemicals, 26 mixtures of these chemicals, or control conditions in a flow-through system for 4 days. Transcriptomics was performed on liver samples by microarray. The main aims were to determine molecular signatures induced by these chemicals in the three-spined stickleback, discover whether these persisted in chemical mixtures and identify non-additive molecular responses in chemical mixtures exposures.
Project description:The aim of this study was to describe the excretory–secretory proteins from the helminth Schistocephalus solidus and its intermediate host, the three-spined stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus L., which are likely to be involved in interactions between them. Combined samples of washes from the G. aculeatus sticklebacks cavity infected with the S. solidus, and washes from the parasite surface were used as experimental samples (samples 5 to 8), while washes from the uninfected fish body cavity were used as control (samples 1 to 4). The obtained samples were analyzed using mass-spectrometry nLC–MS/MS.
Project description:The three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) is an important model organism for understanding the genetic basis of adaptation in response to ecological change. We used single nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) to define brain cell type composition and gene expression in adult and juvenile three-spined stickleback. These data will faciliate improved understanding of how the nervous system responds/adapts to environmental factors.
