Project description:The experiment aimed to investigate seasonal and regional differences in gene expression in Antarctic krill in three different latitudinal regions of the Southern Ocean with variable photoperiodic conditions: South Georgia (54°S), South Orkneys/Bransfield Strait (60°S-63°S) and Lazarev Sea (62°S -66°S). An RNAseq approach was used to test for (1) seasonal differences in gene expression between summer and winter krill from each region, and (2) regional differences in gene expression between the three different regional krill samples from each season. The RNAseq data was analysed with the goal to identify potential seasonal target genes with regulatory functions in the seasonal life cycle of Antarctic krill, focussing on genes related to regulation, reproduction, development and visual perception.

Project description:Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a high latitude pelagic organism which plays a central role in the Southern Ocean ecosystem. E. superba shows daily and seasonal rhythms in physiology and behaviour, which are synchronized with the environmental cycles of its habitat. Recently, the main components of the krill circadian machinery have been identified and characterized. However, the exact mechanisms through which the endogenous timing system operates the control and regulation of the overt rhythms remains only partially understood. Here we investigate the involvement of the circadian clock in the temporal orchestration of gene expression by using a newly developed version of a krill microarray platform. The analysis of transcriptome data from krill exposed to both light-dark cycles (LD 18:6) and constant darkness (DD), has led to the identification of 1,564 putative clock-controlled genes. A remarkably large proportion of such genes, including several clock components (clock, period, cry2, vrille, and slimb), show oscillatory expression patterns in DD, with a periodicity shorter than 24 hours. Energy-storage pathways appear to be regulated by the endogenous clock in accordance with their ecological relevance in daily energy managing and overwintering. Our results provide the first representation of the krill circadian transcriptome under laboratory, free-running conditions. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Project description:The effect of krill powder, a mixed source of protein and n-3 PUFAs from Antarctic Krill (Euphausia superba), on hepatic gene expression was analyzed in CBA/J mice. Mice were fed a low-fat control diet or a 3% (w/w) krill powder low-fat diet for three months. Gene expression profiling on liver samples revealed that the krill powder supplemented diet modulated a large number of pathways compared to the control diet, and we focused on the genes involved in metabolic processes. Pathways involved β-oxidation, glucose metabolism, and amino acid catabolism were downregulated. In contrast, genes involved in the mitochondrial electron transport chain were upregulated. Thus, a krill powder supplemented diet had potent and specific effects on energy metabolism and oxidative phosphorylation at the gene level. This indicates that krill powder supplementation could be an approach to prevent age-related decline in mitochondrial respiratory chain function and weight loss.

Project description:There is accumulating evidence that interfering with the basic aging mechanisms can enhance healthy longevity. Many cellular processes contribute to aging and are referred to as “hallmarks of aging”; by presumption, interventional/therapeutic strategies targeting on multiple ageing hallmarks could be more effective to delay ageing than targeting on one hallmark. While the health-promoting qualities of marine oils have been extensively studied, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Lipid extracts from Antarctic krill are rich in long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (eicosapentaenoic acid/EPA and docosahexaenoic acid/DHA), choline, and astaxanthin. Here, we investigated whether krill oil promotes healthy aging in the small roundworm C. elegans. We show that krill oil rewires distinct gene expression programs that contribute to attenuate several aging hallmarks, including oxidative stress, proteotoxic stress, senescence, genomic instability, and mitochondrial dysfunction. In a C. elegans model of Parkinson´s disease, krill oil protects dopaminergic neurons from aging-related degeneration, decreases alpha synuclein aggregation, and improves dopamine-dependent behavior and cognition. Mechanistically, krill oil increases neuronal resilience through temporal transcriptome rewiring to promote anti-oxidative stress and inflammation via healthspan regulating transcription factors such as SNK-1. However, also krill oil promotes DA neuron survival through regulation of synaptic transmission and neuronal functions via PBO-2 and RIM-1. Collectively, krill oil rewires global gene expression programs and promotes healthy aging via abrogating multiple ageing hallmarks, shedding light on further pre-clinical and clinical explorations.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Polar environments are characterized by extreme seasonal changes in day length, light intensity and spectrum, the extent of sea ice during the winter, and food availability. A key species of the Southern Ocean ecosystem, the Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) has evolved rhythmic physiological and behavioral mechanisms to adapt to daily and seasonal changes. The molecular organization of the clockwork underlying these biological rhythms is, nevertheless, still only partially understood. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:The genome sequence of the Antarctic krill is not yet available. A normalized cDNA library was produced and pyrosequenced in the attempt to identify large numbers of transcripts. All available E. superba sequences were then assembled to create the most complete existing oligonucleotide microarray platform with a total of 32,217 probes. Gene expression signatures of specimens collected in the Ross Sea at five different time points over a 24-hour cycle were defined, and 1,308 genes differentially expressed were identified. Of the corresponding transcripts, 609 showed a significant sinusoidal expression pattern; about 40% of these exibithed a 24-hour periodicity while the other 60% was characterized by a shorter (about 12-hour) rhythm. We assigned the differentially expressed genes to functional categories and noticed that those concerning translation, proteolysis, energy and metabolic process, redox regulation, visual transduction and stress response, which are most likely related to daily environmental changes, were significantly enriched. Two transcripts of peroxiredoxin, thought to represent the ancestral timekeeping system that evolved about 2.5 billion years ago, were also identified as were two isoforms of the EsRh1 opsin and two novel arrestin1 sequences involved in the visual transduction cascade. CONCLUSIONS: Our work represents the first characterization of the krill diurnal transcriptome under natural conditions and provides a first insight into the genetic regulation of physiological changes, which occur around the clock during an Antarctic summer day

Project description:Krill oil is a dietary supplement derived from Antarctic krill; a small crustacean found in the ocean. Krill oil is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, specifically eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, as well as the antioxidant astaxanthin. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of krill oil supplementation, compared to placebo oil (high oleic sunflower oil added astaxanthin), in vivo on energy metabolism and substrate turnover in skeletal muscle cells. Skeletal muscle cells (myotubes) were obtained before and after a 7-week krill oil or placebo oil intervention, and glucose and oleic acid metabolism and leucine accumulation, as well as effects of different stimuli in vitro, were studied in the myotubes. In vivo intervention with krill oil increased oleic acid oxidation and leucine accumulation in skeletal muscle cells, however no effects were observed on glucose metabolism. The krill oil-intervention-induced increase in oleic acid oxidation correlated negatively with changes in serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) concentration. In addition, myotubes were also exposed to krill oil in vitro. The in vitro study revealed that 24 h of krill oil treatment increased both glucose and oleic acid metabolism, enhancing energy substrate utilization. Transcriptomic analysis comparing myotubes obtained before and after krill oil-supplementation identified differentially expressed genes associated with e.g. glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, metabolic pathways and calcium signaling pathway, while proteomic analysis demonstrated upregulation of e.g. LDL-receptor in myotubes obtained after krill oil intervention. These findings suggest that krill oil intervention promotes increased fuel metabolism and protein synthesis in human skeletal muscle cells, with potential implications for metabolic health.
