Project description:The inhibition of Harmful algal blooms (HABs) or red tides
| PRJNA706502 | ENA
Project description:Climate warming is one factor increasing the severity of harmful algal blooms (HABs). Innovative exposure models are needed to understand how HABs affect brain health. Here, we examined HAB exposure on the brain transcriptome of dolphins found stranded in Florida’s Indian River Lagoon. We report the neurotoxin 2,4-diaminobutyric acid (2,4-DAB) is 2,900 times more concentrated in dolphin brains during bloom seasons compared to non-bloom seasons. The same dolphins show 536 differentially expressed genes whose enrichment reveal impairment in GABAergic synapses, basement membrane alteration, and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) risk factors that increase with each subsequent season. Dolphins also display concurrent AD-like neuropathological changes and elevated AD gene expression with 2,4-DAB exposure. Our study demonstrates disproportionate seasonal exposure to 2,4-DAB increases AD signatures in the brain transcriptome. As our climate warms, HABs will continue to intensify. Understanding the impact of HAB exposures will help to identify populations at risk for neurological illnesses.

Project description:Harmful algal blooms (HABs) produce potent neurotoxins that threaten human health. Early life exposure to low levels of the HAB toxin domoic acid (DomA) can produce long-lasting behavioral deficits, but the mechanisms involved are unknown. Using the zebrafish model, we investigated the developmental window of susceptibility to low doses of DomA and examined cellular and molecular targets. Larvae exposed to DomA (0.09 ng) at 2 days post-fertilization (dpf), but not at 1 or 4 dpf, showed deficits in startle behavior that included reduced responsiveness and altered kinematics. Similarly, myelination in the spinal cord was disorganized after exposure at 2 dpf but not 1 or 4 dpf. Time-lapse imaging revealed disruption of the initial stages of myelination. DomA down-regulated genes required for maintaining myelin structure and the axonal cytoskeleton. These results identify a developmental window of susceptibility to DomA-induced behavioral deficits involving altered gene expression and disrupted myelin structure and establish a zebrafish model for investigating the underlying mechanisms.

Project description:Phytoplankton blooms provoke bacterioplankton blooms, from which bacterial biomass (necromass) is released via increased zooplankton grazing and viral lysis. While bacterial consumption of algal biomass during blooms is wellstudied, little is known about the concurrent recycling of these substantial amounts of bacterial necromass. We demonstrate that bacterial biomass, such as bacterial alpha-glucan storage polysaccharides, generated from the consumption of algal organic matter, is reused and thus itself a major bacterial carbon source in vitro and during a diatom-dominated bloom. We highlight conserved enzymes and binding proteins of dominant bloom-responder clades that are presumably involved in the recycling of bacterial alpha-glucan by members of the bacterial community. We furthermore demonstrate that the corresponding protein machineries can be specifically induced by extracted alpha-glucan-rich bacterial polysaccharide extracts. This recycling of bacterial necromass likely constitutes a large-scale intra-population energy conservation mechanism that keeps substantial amounts of carbon in a dedicated part of the microbial loop.

Project description:Harmful algal blooms present severe environmental threats, impacting water quality, aquatic ecosystems, and human health. The frequency and intensity of these blooms are rising, largely driven by global warming and changing climatic conditions. There is an urgent need for innovative methods to monitor blue-green algae, also known as cyanobacteria, to enable the implementation of preventative measures. Here, we show that native mass spectrometry is an effective tool for detecting cyanobacteria directly from lake samples, both prior and during bloom formation. Our approach allows for the rapid characterization of cyanobacterial populations within lakes, offering valuable insights into the dynamics of cyanobacterial species associated with harmful algae blooms. Overall, we highlight the exceptional capability of native mass spectrometry in directly detecting and monitoring cyanobacterial blooms, which will support the development of more effective strategies to mitigate this growing environmental challenge.
