Proteome Landscape during Ripening of Solid Endosperm from Two Different Coconut Cultivars Reveals Contrasting Carbohydrate and Fatty Acid Metabolic Pathway Modulation. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:10431. [PMID: 37445609 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241310431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 06/16/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Cocos nucifera L. is a crop grown in the humid tropics. It is grouped into two classes of varieties: dwarf and tall; regardless of the variety, the endosperm of the coconut accumulates carbohydrates in the early stages of maturation and fatty acids in the later stages, although the biochemical factors that determine such behavior remain unknown. We used tandem mass tagging with synchronous precursor selection (TMT-SPS-MS3) to analyze the proteomes of solid endosperms from Yucatan green dwarf (YGD) and Mexican pacific tall (MPT) coconut cultivars. The analysis was conducted at immature, intermediate, and mature development stages to better understand the regulation of carbohydrate and lipid metabolisms. Proteomic analyses showed 244 proteins in YGD and 347 in MPT; from these, 155 proteins were shared between both cultivars. Furthermore, the proteomes related to glycolysis, photosynthesis, and gluconeogenesis, and those associated with the biosynthesis and elongation of fatty acids, were up-accumulated in the solid endosperm of MPT, while in YGD, they were down-accumulated. These results support that carbohydrate and fatty acid metabolisms differ among the developmental stages of the solid endosperm and between the dwarf and tall cultivars. This is the first proteomics study comparing different stages of maturity in two contrasting coconut cultivars and may help in understanding the maturity process in other palms.

Kanoksinwuttipong N, Jaree P, Somboonwiwat K. Shrimp pmo-miR-750 regulates the expression of sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein facilitating virus infection in Penaeus monodon. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 129:74-84. [PMID: 36007832 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2022.08.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally and play crucial roles in antiviral responses. Penaeus monodon miR-750 (pmo-miR-750) was found to be strongly up-regulated in the late phase of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection, but its function remains uncharacterized. Herein, the targets that were translationally down-regulated in the shrimp stomach following a pmo-miR-750 mimic injection were identified using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein (Scp) and actin1 (Act1) were revealed to be down-regulated protein spots. The genuine binding of pmo-miR-750 mimic to Scp but not Act1 mRNA was validated in vitro. In addition, a negative correlation between the Scp transcript and pmo-miR-750 expression level in WSSV-infected P. monodon stomach implies that pmo-miR-750 regulates Scp expression in vivo. When injected into WSSV-infected shrimp, the pmo-miR-750 mimic suppressed Scp expression but significantly increased the WSSV copy number. Consistent with the miRNA mimic-mediated Scp suppression, the loss of function assay of Scp in WSSV-challenged shrimp by RNA interference revealed a decreased survival rate with a dramatic increase in viral copy number. Besides that, apoptosis was activated in the hemocytes of the Scp knockdown shrimp upon WSSV infection. Collectively, our findings reveal that up-regulated pmo-miR-750 suppresses Scp expression at both the transcript and protein levels in the late stage of WSSV infection, which contributes to modulating apoptosis and eventually enabling viral propagation.

Abstract
The effects of crude oil spills are an ongoing problem for wildlife and human health in both marine and freshwater aquatic environments. Bioassays of model organisms are a convenient way to assess the potential risks of the substances involved in oil spills. Zebrafish embryos (ZFE) are a useful to reach a fast and detailed description of the toxicity of the pollutants, including both the components of the crude oil itself and substances that are commonly used for crude oil spill mitigation (e.g. surfactants). Here, we evaluated the survival rate, as well as histological, morphological, and proteomic changes in ZFE exposed to Water Accumulated Fraction (WAF) of light crude oil and in mixture with dioctyl sulfosuccinate sodium (DOSS, e.g. CEWAF: Chemically Enhanced WAF), a surfactant that is frequently used in chemical dispersant formulations. Furthermore, we compared de hydrocarbon concentration of WAF and CEWAF of the sublethal dilution. In histological, morphological, and gene expression variables, the ZFE exposed to WAF showed less changes than those exposed to CEWAF. Proteomic changes were more dramatic in ZFE exposed to WAF, with important alterations in spliceosomal and ribosomal proteins, as well as proteins related to eye and retinal photoreceptor development and heart function. We also found that the concentration of high molecular weight hydrocarbons in water was slighly higher in presence of DOSS, but the low molecular weight hydrocarbons concentration was higher in WAF. These results provide an important starting point for identifying useful crude-oil exposure biomarkers in fish species.

Abstract
Since the 1970s, individuals that survive a specific infectious disease among crustaceans reportedly develop resistance to the given virulence factors. Quasi-immune response is a similar phenomenon of acquired resistance against white spot syndrome virus, also found in kuruma shrimp. This phenomenon, resembling immunological memory, is collectively called immune priming and recently attracts increasing attention. In this study, I review, along with recent findings, past attempts to immunize shrimp by administration of the pathogen itself or recombinant proteins of viral constituent factors. Moreover, I aimed at investigating the diversity of pattern recognition receptors in kuruma shrimp from the currently available information that allows for a better understanding of immune priming. This review would potentially help to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of immune priming in the future.

Abstract
Invertebrates are considered completely dependent on their innate immunity to defend themselves against pathogens as they lack an adaptive immunity. However, a growing body of evidence has indicated a specific acquired immunity called 'immune priming' may exist. The Pacific white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei is one of the most economically important shrimp species in the world. In the previous research, we investigated the hepatopancreas immune response of shrimp immunized with trans -vp28 gene Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 at the protein level. In this study, on the basis of the previous research, the shrimp were then challenged with WSSV, and hepatopancreas analyzed using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (i TRAQ) labeling. In total, 308 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified including 84 upregulated and 224 downregulated. Upregulated proteins such as calmodulin B and calreticulin, and downregulated proteins such as calnexin, and signaling pathways like Ras, mTOR were differentially expressed in both studies. Data from this study are more significant than previous work and indicate increased sensitivity to WSSV after immunization with trans-vp28 gene Synechocystis sp. PCC6803. In addition, selected DEPs (upregulated: A0A3R7QHH6 and downregulated: A0A3R7PEF6, A0A3R7MGX8, A0A423TPJ4, and A0A3R7QCC2) were randomly analyzed using parallel reaction monitoring (PRM). These data preliminarily confirm immune priming in P. vannamei, and show that the initial stimulation with trans -vp28 gene Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 regulate P. vannamei immune responses and they provide shrimp with enhanced immune protection against secondary stimulation.

Abstract
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is the most destructive virus among invertebrates. In this study, we analyzed the immune response after WSSV infection in Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ). We identified 325 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the hepatopancreas of L. vannamei. Among them, 212 were up-regulated proteins, and several of them might be related to immunity (e.g. arginine kinase and peroxiredoxin). Of the 113 down-regulated proteins, some were related to immunity (e.g. cathepsin C and cathepsin L) and others to the antioxidant defense process (e.g. glutathione peroxidase and catalase). One down-regulated DEP (C7M84_014268) and 3 up-regulated DEPs (C7M84_003456, C7M84_020702, and C7M84_007135) were randomly selected and analyzed using parallel reaction monitoring. This study is an important step for a comprehensive understanding of the immune relationship between L. vannamei and WSSV and provides valuable information for the prevention of viral diseases in the crustacean aquaculture industry.

Abstract
Early changes in hemocyte proteins in freshwater crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus, in response to an injection with the fungal pattern recognition protein β-1,3-glucan (laminarin) were investigated, as well as changes after saline (vehicle) injection and in naïve animals. Injection of saline resulted in rapid recruitment of granular hemocytes from surrounding tissues, whereas laminarin injection on the other hand induced an initial dramatic drop of hemocytes. At six hours after injection, the hemocyte populations therefore were of different composition. The results show that mature granular hemocytes increase in number after saline injection as indicated by the high abundance of proteins present in granular cell vesicles, such as a vitelline membrane outer layer protein 1 homolog, mannose-binding lectin, masquerade, crustin 1 and serine protease homolog 1. After injection with the β-1,3-glucan, only three proteins were enhanced in expression, in comparison with saline-injected animals and uninjected controls. All of them may be associated with immune responses, such as a new and previously undescribed Kazal proteinase inhibitor. One interesting observation was that the clotting protein was increased dramatically in most of the animals injected with laminarin. The number of significantly affected proteins was very few after a laminarin injection when compared to uninjected and saline-injected crayfish. This finding may demonstrate some problematic issues with gene and protein expression studies from other crustaceans receiving injections with pathogens or pattern recognition proteins. If no uninjected controls are included and no information about hemocyte count (total or differential) is given, expressions data for proteins or mRNAs are very difficult to properly interpret.

Abstract
The “milky disease” of the Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis, is a highly lethal fungal disease caused by Metschnikowia bicuspidata infection. To elucidate the immune responses of the hemolymph of E. sinensis to M. bicuspidata infection, a comparative analysis of the hemolymph of E. sinensis infected with M. bicuspidata and that treated with phosphate buffered saline was performed using label-free quantitative proteomics. A total of 429 proteins were identified. Using a 1.5-fold change in expression as a physiologically significant benchmark, 62 differentially expressed proteins were identified, of which 38 were significantly upregulated and 24 were significantly downregulated. The upregulated proteins mainly included cytoskeleton-related proteins (myosin regulatory light chain 2, myosin light chain alkali, tubulin α-2 chain, and tubulin β-1 chain), serine protease and serine protease inhibitor (clip domain-containing serine protease, leukocyte elastase inhibitor, serine protein inhibitor 42Dd), catalase, transferrin, and heat shock protein 70. Upregulation of these proteins indicated that phenoloxidase system, phagocytosis and the ROS systems were induced by M. bicuspidata. The downregulated proteins were mainly organ and tissue regeneration proteins (PDGF/VEGF-related factor protein, integrin-linked protein kinase homing pat-4 gene) and hemagglutination-associated proteins (hemolymph clottable protein, hemocyte protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase). Downregulation of these proteins indicated that M. bicuspidata inhibited hemocyte regeneration and hemolymph agglutination. Fifteen differentially expressed proteins related to immunity were verified using a parallel reaction monitoring method. The expression trend of these proteins was similar to that of the proteome. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the proteome of E. sinensis in response to M. bicuspidata infection. These results not only provide new and important information on the immune response of crustaceans to yeast infection but also provide a basis for further understanding the molecular mechanism of complex host pathogen interactions between crustaceans and fungi.

Abstract
Outbreaks of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) have caused serious damage to penaeid shrimp aquaculture worldwide. Despite great efforts to characterize the virus, the conditions that lead to infection and the infection mechanisms, there is still a lack of understanding regarding these complex virus-host interactions, which is needed to develop consistent and effective treatment methods for WSSV. In this study, we used a gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GC-MS)-based metabolomics approach to compare the metabolite profiles of gills, haemolymph and hepatopancreas from whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) exposed to WSSV and corresponding controls. The results revealed clear discriminations between metabolite profiles of WSSV-challenged shrimp and controlled shrimp in each tissue. The responses of shrimp gills to WSSV infection were characterized by increases of many fatty acids and amino acids in WSSV-challenged shrimp compared to the controls. Changes in haemolymph metabolite profiles include the increased levels of itaconic acid, energy-related metabolites, metabolites in glutathione cycle and decrease of amino acids. The WSSV challenge led to the decreases of several fatty acids and amino acids and increases of other amino acids, lactic acid and other organic compounds (levulinic acid, malonic acid and putrescine) in hepatopancreas. These alterations of shrimp metabolites suggest several immune responses of shrimp to WSSV in a tissue-specific manner, including upregulation of osmoregulation, antimicrobial activity, metabolic rate, gluconeogenesis, glutathione pathway in control of oxidative stress and shift from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism in shrimp which indicates the Warburg effect. The findings from this study provide a better understanding of molecular process of shrimp response against WSSV invasion which may be useful for development of disease management strategies.

Abstract
Crustaceans are particularly sensitive to heavy metal pollution. Copper (Cu) is one of typical heavy metal pollutants in aquatic ecosystems. However, limited attention has been paid on the proteomic responses of shrimp under Cu stress. White shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei held in 5‰ seawater were exposed to 5 mg L-1 Cu for 3 h, and the regulatory mechanism in the gills was elucidated using iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomics. The results showed that a total of 5034 proteins were identified, 385 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), including 147 differentially up-regulated proteins (DUPs) and 238 differentially down-regulated proteins (DDPs) were found. Bioinformatics analysis indicated the DEPs responding to Cu stress mainly involved in cytoskeleton, immune response, stress response, protein synthesis, detoxification, ion homeostasis and apoptosis. Furthermore, we still performed PRM analysis on sarcoplasmic calcium binding protein (SCP), serine proteinase inhibitor B3 (SPIB3), C-type lectin 4 (CTL4), cathepsin L (CATHL), JHE-like carboxylesterase 1 (CXE1) and paramyosin (PMY), and biochemical analysis on Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD) to validate the iTRAQ results, respectively. The present proteome analysis revealed that Cu stress disrupted the ion homeostasis and protein synthesis, and L.vannamei mainly regulates a series of molecular pathways which contained many key proteins involved in the immune process to protect the organism from Cu stress. Our data provides more insight about the underlying mechanisms that related to the stress response of Cu exposure in crustacean.

Front Microbiol 2020; 11:1084. [PMID: 32547519 PMCID: PMC7273172 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.01084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2019] [Accepted: 04/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
The Caribbean spiny lobster Panulirus argus (Latreille, 1084) sustains economically valuable fisheries throughout the wider Caribbean region. This species is currently affected by the pathogenic virus Panulirus argus Virus 1 (PaV1) that causes a systemic and chronic-degenerative infection in juvenile spiny lobsters P. argus. To date, there is no available information regarding the host alterations induced by this pathogen at the molecular level. In the present study, comparative proteomic analyses of the changes in the hepatopancreas between infected and non-infected juvenile lobsters were analyzed by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) coupled to synchronous precursor selection (SPS)-based MS3. We identified a total of 636 proteins, being 68 down-regulated and 71 up-regulated proteins. Among the down-regulated proteins, we identified several enzymes involved in the metabolism of hormones and lipids, digestive proteases and glycosidases, while proteins associated with the histone core, protein synthesis, immune response and RNA regulation were up-regulated. Several misregulated enzymes involved in the regulation of neuromodulators were also identified. RT-qPCR assays were used to validate the expression of transcripts encoding for selected differential proteins that were in concordance to proteomic data, as well as the tendency observed in the enzymatic activities of trypsin, chymotrypsin, and glycosidase. In a similar way, we observed glycogen reduction in muscle, and an increase in plasma acylglycerides and glucose, which may be explained by proteomic data. This study provides the first insight into the molecular changes in the hepatopancreas of Caribbean spiny lobsters associated to PaV1 infection. Data provided herein would help to clarify the origin of the molecular misregulations observed at macroscopic level in this host-pathogen interaction.

Resolving hemocyanin isoform complexity in haemolymph of black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon - implications in aquaculture, medicine and food safety. J Proteomics 2020; 218:103689. [PMID: 32088355 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2020.103689] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2019] [Revised: 02/10/2020] [Accepted: 02/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Hemocyanin (Hc) is a multifunctional macromolecule involved in oxygen transport and non-specific immunity in shrimp. Hc is crucial in physiology and nutrition linked with optimal performance in aquaculture production systems. In medicine, Hc has been approved for clinical use in humans as adjuvant and anticancer therapeutic. In contrast, Hc has also been identified as one of the proteins causing anaphylaxis following shrimp consumption. The role of individual Hc isoforms remains unknown due to a lack of resolved Hc isoforms. We successfully identified eleven different Penaeus monodon hemocyanin (PmoHc) γ isoforms including two truncated isoforms (50 and 20 kDa) and one PmoHc β isoform in haemolymph using proteomics informed by transcriptomics. Amino acid sequence homology ranged from 24 to 97% between putative PmoHc gene isoforms. Hc isoforms showed specific patterns of transcript expression in shrimp larval stages and adult hepatopancreas. These findings enable isoform level investigations aiming to define molecular mechanisms underpinning Hc functionality in shrimp physiology and immunity, as well as their individual immunogenic role in human allergy. Our research demonstrates the power of proteomics informed by transcriptomics to resolve isoform complexity in non-model organisms and lay the foundations for improved performance within the aquaculture industry and advance allergenic applications in medicine. SIGNIFICANCE: The roles of hemocyanin (Hc) in shrimp homeostasis and immunity as well as in human allergy are not well understood because the complexity of Hc isoforms has remained unresolved. Our results have confirmed the existence of at least 12 individual Hc isoforms in shrimp haemolymph and validated putative Hc gene assemblies from transcriptomics. Our findings will enable monitoring the expression of specific Hc isoforms in shrimp haemolymph during different environmental, nutritional and pathogenic conditions, thus providing insights into isoform specific functional roles. In medicine, the potential allergenicity of each Hc isoform could be determined and advance allergenic applications. Lastly, since Hc comprises up to 95% of the total protein in haemolymph, these isoforms become ideal targets for prawn provenance, traceability and food contamination studies.

Abstract
This study aimed to use isobaric tags (IBTs) to investigate the immune response of the hepatopancreas of Marsupenaeus japonicas infected with Vibrio parahaemolyticus or white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and protein sequencing identified 1005 proteins. Among them, 109 proteins were upregulated and 94 were downregulated after V. parahaemolyticus infection. After WSSV infection, 130 proteins were identified as differentially abundant, including 88 that were upregulated and 42 were downregulated. Fifty-four proteins were identified as differentially abundant after both V. parahaemolyticus and WSSV infection. A number of proteins related to cytoskeletal processes, including actin and myosin, and apoptosis-related proteins were upregulated in shrimp after V. parahaemolyticus and WSSV infection, indicating that phagocytosis and apoptosis may be involved in the response to in V. parahaemolyticus or WSSV infection. Quantitative real-time PCR was carried out to verify the reliability of the proteomic data. These data provide a basis to characterize the immunity-related processes of shrimp in response to infection with WSSV or V. parahaemolyticus.
