ABSTRACT: Transcriptome profiling of brown trout (Salmo trutta) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) posterior kidney during proliferative kidney disease
Project description:A total of 55 individuals were analysed: 15 migratory brown trout (Salmo trutta) individuals from the Redon river, 15 sedentary brown trout (S. trutta) individuals from the Redon river, 15 sedentary brown trout (S. trutta) individuals from the Chevenne river, and 10 Atlantic salmon (S. salar) individuals of a hatchery strain. For each individual, RNA was isolated twice from different parts of the same tissue, independently reverse transcribed into Cy3-labeled cDNA and then probed on two different slides, which leads to total of 110 single slide experiments.
Project description:The rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is one of the most important aquaculture species worlwide. In this study, transcriptional profiling of skin by oligonucleotide microarray was applied to rainbow trout individuals infected with A. salmonicida, to identified enriched genes involved in pathogen response.
Project description:The effect of dietary immunostimulation in the immune organs, head kidney and spleen, of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), was investigated using a salmonid-specific microarray platform enriched with immune-related genes. Immunostimulant-diet feeding significantly changed transcriptomic expression profiles: larger reduction rather than induction was observed, with significant regulation in genes and functional GO categories related to remodeling processes and immune and hematopoietic activities. The results revealed that Immunostimulant-diets hava effect in the transcriptome of cultured fish. Keywords: spleen, head kidney, immunostimulats, transcriptomic response, trout
Project description:The aim of present study is to identify and quantify proteins involved in the events of fertilization and early embryo development using a label-free protein quantification method in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) as an economically important fish species in aquaculture.
Project description:We constructed a targeted cDNA microarray consisting of 147 rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) genes with known function to examine the transcriptional response to a standardized handling stress.
Project description:A rapid decline in temperature poses a major challenge for poikilothermic fish. The gene expression of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss having undergone such a cold shock (0 °C) and a control (5 °C) were compared in a microarray-based study.
Project description:In the present work, we evaluated the effects of membrane-initiated cortisol actions in vivo in the proteome of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) skeletal muscle. Quantitative iTRAQ analyses were performed to examine proteomic changes in rainbow trout stimulated with physiological concentrations of cortisol and cortisol-BSA. A total of 873 proteins were identified, among which 38 proteins were commonly and differentially expressed under both conditions. Functional clustering analysis revealed an upregulation of proteins associated with mitochondria, metal-binding and secreted proteins.
Project description:The objective of this study was to identify and quantify proteomic profiles of head kidney of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. Specific pathogen free rainbow trout (mean length 15 ± 1 cm) were maintained in recirculating de-chlorinated water at 19±1 °C. Prior to the experiment, fish were distributed between 9 aquaria, 18 fish per aquarium. The test groups were infected by immersion of Yersinia ruckeri strains: CSF007-82 (biotype 1) and 7959-11 (biotype 2). The control group was immersed similar with sterile broth medium. There were 3 aquaria per each group (CSF007-82-infected, 7959-11-infected and control). Nine fish from infected and control fish groups were anaesthetized with MS-222 at 3, 9 and 28 days post exposure and sampled aseptically. Each head kidney was washed three times with sterile phosphate-buffered saline containing a cocktail of mammalian protease inhibitors. Head kidney samples were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at –80 °C.
