Abstract
Aquaculture has witnessed an excellent growth rate during the last two decades and offers huge potential to provide nutritional as well as livelihood security. Genomic research has contributed significantly toward the development of beneficial technologies for aquaculture. The existing high throughput technologies like next-generation technologies generate oceanic data which requires extensive analysis using appropriate tools. Bioinformatics is a rapidly evolving science that involves integrating gene based information and computational technology to produce new knowledge for the benefit of aquaculture. Bioinformatics provides new opportunities as well as challenges for information and data processing in new generation aquaculture. Rapid technical advancements have opened up a world of possibilities for using current genomics to improve aquaculture performance. Understanding the genes that govern economically relevant characteristics, necessitates a significant amount of additional research. The various dimensions of data sources includes next-generation DNA sequencing, protein sequencing, RNA sequencing gene expression profiles, metabolic pathways, molecular markers, and so on. Appropriate bioinformatics tools are developed to mine the biologically relevant and commercially useful results. The purpose of this scoping review is to present various arms of diverse bioinformatics tools with special emphasis on practical translation to the aquaculture industry.

Neuropharmacology 2023; 225:109401. [PMID: 36565853 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2022.109401] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Revised: 12/17/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Certain bacteria possess the ability to reduce anxiety- and stress-related behaviors through the gut microbiome-brain axis. Such bacteria are called psychobiotics, and can be used to improve mood and cognition. However, only a few bacteria have been characterized as psychobiotics, and their exact mechanism of action remains unclear. Hence, in this study we analyzed three different species under the Lactobacillacea family, namely, Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lacticaseibacillus casei, and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei for their potential psychobiotic activities. L. delbrueckii treatment reduced anxiety-like behavior and increased brain and gut glutamic acid decarboxylase (gad) gene expression in zebrafish. It also altered zebrafish gut microbial community as determined by PCR-DGGE and 16S rRNA-based metagenomics analysis. Overall, this paper showed that L. delbrueckii but not L. paracasei and L. casei, induced a consistent improvement in anxiety-like behavior in zebrafish, implicating its potential role as a psychobiotic to reduce anxiety. This article is part of the Special Issue on 'Microbiome & the Brain: Mechanisms & Maladies'.

Abstract
Lectins are a unique group of nonimmune carbohydrate-binding proteins or glycoproteins that exhibit specific and reversible carbohydrate-binding activity in a non-catalytic manner. Lectins have diverse sources and are classified according to their origins, such as plant lectins, animal lectins, and fish lectins. Marine organisms including fish, crustaceans, and mollusks produce a myriad of lectins, including rhamnose binding lectins (RBL), fucose-binding lectins (FTL), mannose-binding lectin, galectins, galactose binding lectins, and C-type lectins. The widely used method of extracting lectins from marine samples is a simple two-step process employing a polar salt solution and purification by column chromatography. Lectins exert several immunomodulatory functions, including pathogen recognition, inflammatory reactions, participating in various hemocyte functions (e.g., agglutination), phagocytic reactions, among others. Lectins can also control cell proliferation, protein folding, RNA splicing, and trafficking of molecules. Due to their reported biological and pharmaceutical activities, lectins have attracted the attention of scientists and industries (i.e., food, biomedical, and pharmaceutical industries). Therefore, this review aims to update current information on lectins from marine organisms, their characterization, extraction, and biofunctionalities.

Aeromonas sobria Induces Proinflammatory Cytokines Production in Mouse Macrophages via Activating NLRP3 Inflammasome Signaling Pathways. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2021; 11:691445. [PMID: 34513725 PMCID: PMC8428973 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2021.691445] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Aeromonas sobria, a common conditional pathogenic bacteria, is widely distributed in the environment and causes gastroenteritis in humans or septicemia in fish. Of all Aeromonas species, A. sobria is the most frequently isolated from human infections especially in immunocompromised subjects. Innate immunity is the first protection system of organism to resist non-specific pathogens invasion; however, the immune response process of hosts against A. sobria infection re\mains unexplored. The present study established an A. sobria infection model using primary mouse peritoneal macrophages (PMφs). The adherence and cytotoxicity of A. sobria on PMφs were determined by May-Grünwald Giemsa staining and LDH release measurement. Pro-inflammatory cytokine expression levels were measured using qPCR, western blotting, and ELISA methods. We also investigated the levels of ASC oligomerization and determined the roles of active caspase-1 in IL-1β secretion through inhibition assays and explored the activated pattern recognition receptors through immunofluorescence. We further elucidated the roles of activated inflammasome in regulating the host's inflammatory response through inhibition combined with ELISA assays. Our results showed that A. sobria induced lytic cell death and LDH release, whereas it had no adhesive properties on PMφs. A. sobria triggered various proinflammatory cytokine transcription level upregulation, and IL-1β occupied the highest levels. The pro-IL-1β protein expression levels increased in a dose-dependent manner with MOI ranging from 1 to 100. This process was regulated by ASC-dependent inflammasome, which cleavage pro-IL-1β into active IL-1β p17 with activated caspase-1 p20. Meanwhile, the expression levels of NLRP3 receptor significantly increased, location analysis revealed puncta-like surrounding nuclear, and inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome downregulated caspase-1 activation and IL-1β secretion. Blocking of NLRP3 inflammasome activation through K+ efflux and cathepsin B or caspase approaches downregulated A. sobria-induced proinflammatory cytokine production. Overall, these data indicated that A. sobria induced proinflammatory cytokine production in PMφs through activating NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathways.
