[PMID: 37893932 PMCID: PMC10603676 DOI: 10.3390/ani13203208] [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: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) is primarily distributed in the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems, where it plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological functions such as digestion, reproduction and establishing animal emotions. 5-HT is an effective oxytocin widely used in molluscan aquaculture, and its physiological functions are performed by binding to corresponding 5-HT receptors (5-HTRs). In this study, seven 5-HTR genes of Sinonovacula constricta (Sc5-HTRs) were identified and analyzed, and they were designated as Sc5-HT1A, Sc5-HT1D, Sc5-HT2-1, Sc5-HT2-2, Sc5-HT2-3, Sc5-HT4 and Sc5-HT6. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the seven Sc5-HTRs were conserved among mollusks, and the Sc5-HTRs were all transmembrane proteins. The seven Sc5-HTR genes were distributed on chromosome 1, 2, 13 and 14. After injecting 5-HT, there was a significant increase in mRNA expression levels of Sc5-HT1A (p < 0.05) and Sc5-HT2-3 (p < 0.01), while Sc5-HT4 decreased significantly (p < 0.01) compared to control groups which might be effective 5-HT receptors. Furthermore, two of the receptors (Sc5-HT2-3 and Sc5-HT4) were expressed in the circadian rhythm patterns, indicating their potential influence on the nocturnal spawning of S. constricta. Overall, these findings provide a theoretical basis for understanding the structures and functions of 5-HTR gene family members, and may facilitate the artificial propagation of mollusks.

Abstract
Since proteins play an important role in the life of an organism, many researchers are now looking at how genes and proteins interact to form different proteins. It is anticipated that the creation of adequate tools for rapid analysis of proteins will accelerate the determination of functional aspects of these biomolecules and develop new biomarkers and therapeutic targets for the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. Though shrimp contains high-quality marine proteins, there are reports about the heavy losses to the shrimp industry due to the poor quality of shrimp production and many times due to mass mortality also. Frequent outbreaks of diseases, water pollution, and quality of feed are some of the most recognized reasons for such losses. In the seafood export market, shrimp occupies the top position in currency earnings and strengthens the economy of many developing nations. Therefore, it is vital for shrimp-producing companies they produce healthy shrimp with high-quality protein. Though aquaculture is a very competitive market, global awareness regarding the use of scientific knowledge and emerging technologies to obtain better-farmed organisms through sustainable production has enhanced the importance of proteomics in seafood biology research. Proteomics, as a powerful tool, has therefore been increasingly used to address several issues in shrimp aquaculture. In the present paper, efforts have been made to address some of them, particularly the role of proteomics in reproduction, breeding and spawning, immunological responses and disease resistance capacity, nutrition and health, microbiome and probiotics, quality and safety of shrimp production, bioinformatics applications in proteomics, the discovery of protein biomarkers, and mitigating biotic and abiotic stresses. Future challenges and research directions on proteomics in shrimp aquaculture have also been discussed.

Identification of putative amine receptor complement in the eyestalk of the crayfish, Procambarus clarkii. INVERTEBRATE NEUROSCIENCE 2019; 19:12. [PMID: 31549228 DOI: 10.1007/s10158-019-0232-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2019] [Accepted: 09/16/2019] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
In decapod crustaceans, the amines dopamine, octopamine, serotonin, and histamine are known to serve as locally released and/or circulating neuromodulators. While many studies have focused on determining the modulatory actions of amines on decapod nervous systems, comparatively little is known about the identity of the receptors through which they exert their actions. Here, a crayfish, Procambarus clarkii, tissue-specific transcriptome was used to identify putative amine receptors in the eyestalk, a structure composed largely of the eyestalk ganglia, including the neuroendocrine X-organ-sinus gland system, and retina. Transcripts encoding 17 distinct putative amine receptors, three dopamine (one dopamine 1-like, one dopamine 2-like, and one dopamine/ecdysteroid-like), five octopamine (one alpha-like, three beta-like, and one octopamine/tyramine-like), three serotonin (two type-1-like and one type-7-like), and six histamine (five histamine-gated chloride channel A-like and one histamine-gated chloride channel B-like) were identified in the assembly. Comparison of the nucleotide sequence of the transcript encoding one predicted type-1-like serotonin receptor with that cloned previously from the P. clarkii nervous system shows the two sequences to be essentially identical, providing increased support for the validity of the transcripts used to deduce the proteins reported here. Reciprocal BLAST and structural/functional domain analyses support the protein family annotations ascribed to the putative P. clarkii receptors. These data represent the first large-scale description of amine receptors from P. clarkii, and as such provide a new resource for initiating gene-based studies of aminergic control of physiology/behavior at the level of receptors in this species.

Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) regulates numerous physiological functions and processes, such as light adaptation, food intake and ovarian maturation, and plays the role through 5-HT receptors. To our knowledge, this is the first study to isolate and characterize the serotonin receptor 7 (5-HT7 receptor) cDNA encoded in Eriocheir sinensis, an economically important aquaculture species in China, by performing rapid-amplification of cDNA ends. The full-length of 5-HT7 receptor gene cDNA is 2328 bp and encodes a polypeptide with 590 amino acids that are highly homologous with other crustaceans 5-HT7 receptor genes. Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence of the 5-HT7, including 7 transmembrane domains and some common features of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), indicated that 5-HT7 receptor was a member of GPCRs family. A gene expression analysis of the 5-HT7 receptor by RT-PCR revealed that the 5-HT7 receptor transcripts were widely distributed in various tissues, in which high expression levels were observed in the cranial ganglia, thoracic ganglia and intestines. Further study about the effects of photoperiods on the 5-HT7 expression in the tissues showed that a significantly increasing expression of the 5-HT7 receptor was observed in the thoracic ganglia induced by constant light. In addition, in the eyestalks, the expression levels of 5-HT7 mRNA in constant darkness and constant light were lower than control treatment. Then, the expression levels of the 5-HT7 receptor in three feeding statuses displayed that there were significantly increasing expressions in the hepatopancreas and intestines after feeding, compared with before feeding and during the feeding period. Finally, the 5-HT7 mRNA expression levels in stage III and stage IV were higher than the levels in stage I of ovarian development. Our experimental results showed that the 5-HT7 receptor structurally belongs to GPCRs, and the thoracic ganglia and eyestalks are the important tissues of the 5-HT7 receptor for light adaptation. The 5-HT7 receptor may also be involved in the physiological regulation of the hepatopancreas and intestines after ingestion in E. sinensis. In addition, the 5-HT7 receptor is involved in the process of ovarian maturation. The study provided a foundation for further research of light adaptation, digestive functions and ovarian maturation of the 5-HT7 receptor in Decapoda.

Abstract
Cellular proteomics of total proteins in ovaries of domesticated and wild giant tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) were examined using GeLC-MS/MS. In total, 1638 proteins matched those previously deposited in databases and 1253 (76.50%) of these significantly matched known proteins. Several reproduction-related proteins (e.g. Cdc2, Cyclin B, Cdc25, 14-3-3, thymosin-β and Rac-GTPase activating protein 1) were identified. In addition, the full-length cDNA of P. monodon thymosin-β (PmTmsb; 1084 bp with an ORF of 387 bp and 128 deduced aa) and Rac-GTPase activating protein 1 (PmRacgap1; an ORF of 1881 bp and 626 deduced aa) were further characterized. PmTmsb was constitutively expressed in all tissues. In contrast, PmRacgap1 was more abundantly expressed in gonads than in several non-reproductive tissues (e.g. subcuticular epithelium, hepatopancreas, intestine, pleopods, stomach and thoracic ganglion). The expression levels of PmTmsb and PmRacgap1 in ovaries of wild adult broodstock were significantly greater than those in ovaries of juveniles (P<0.05). However, their expression levels did not vary significantly during ovarian development stages in intact broodstock. However, eyestalk ablation resulted in a significant reduction in PmTmsb expression at stages I and III ovaries (P<0.05), although it did not affect PmRacgap1 transcription significantly at these stages. On the other hand, use of polyclonal antibodies derived from recombinant PmTmsb and PmRacgap1 revealed that levels of both proteins decreased at the late stage (IV) of ovarian development. Our results suggested that PmTmsb and PmRacgap1 may act as negative effectors during ovarian development in P. monodon.

Abstract
The present study investigated possible adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) of the antidepressant fluoxetine (FX) in the marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. An evaluation of molecular endpoints involved in modes of action (MOAs) of FX and biomarkers for sub-lethal toxicity were explored in mussels after a 7-day administration of nominal FX concentrations encompassing a range of environmentally relevant values (0.03-300ng/L). FX bioaccumulated in mussel tissues after treatment with 30 and 300ng/L FX, resulting in bioconcentration factor (BCF) values ranging from 200 to 800, which were higher than expected based solely on hydrophobic partitioning models. Because FX acts as a selective serotonin (5-HT) re-uptake inhibitor increasing serotonergic neurotransmission at mammalian synapses, cell signaling alterations triggered by 5-HT receptor occupations were assessed. cAMP levels and PKA activities were decreased in digestive gland and mantle/gonads of FX-treated mussels, consistent with an increased occupation of 5-HT1 receptors negatively coupled to the cAMP/PKA pathway. mRNA levels of a ABCB gene encoding the P-glycoprotein were also significantly down-regulated. This membrane transporter acts in detoxification towards xenobiotics and in altering pharmacokinetics of antidepressants; moreover, it is under a cAMP/PKA transcriptional regulation in mussels. Potential stress effects of FX were investigated using a battery of biomarkers for mussel health status that included lysosomal parameters, antioxidant enzyme activities, lipid peroxidation, and acetylcholinesterase activity. FX reduced the health status of mussels and induced lysosomal alterations, as suggested by reduction of lysosomal membrane stability in haemocytes and by lysosomal accumulation of neutral lipids in digestive gland. No clear antioxidant responses to FX were detected in digestive gland, while gills displayed significant increases of catalase and glutathione-s-transferase activities and a significant decrease of acetylcholinesterase activity. Though AOPs associated with mammalian therapeutic MOAs remain important during assessments of pharmaceutical hazards in the environment, this study highlights the importance of considering additional MOAs and AOPs for FX, particularly in marine mussels.

Abstract
Valosin-containing protein (VCP), a member of the ATPase-associated with diverse cellular activity (AAA) family, was identified from the giant tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon). The full-length cDNA of the PmVCP mRNA consisted of 2,724 bp containing an ORF of 2,367 bp corresponding to a deduced polypeptide of 788 amino acids. The deduced PmVCP protein contained two putative Cdc48 domains (positions 17-103, E-value=2.00e-36 and 120-186, E-value=3.60e-11) and two putative AAA domains (positions 232-368, E-value=3.67e-24 and 505-644, E-value=3.73e-25). PmVCP mRNA expression in ovaries was greater than that in testes in both juveniles and broodstock. PmVCP was significantly up-regulated in stages II and IV ovaries in intact wild broodstock (P<0.05) but it was not differentially expressed during ovarian development in eyestalk-ablated broodstock (P>0.05). The expression level of PmVCP mRNA in ovaries of 14-month-old shrimp was not affected by progesterone injection (0.1μg/g body weight, P>0.05). In contrast, exogenous 5-HT administration (50μg/g body weight) resulted in an increase of PmVCP mRNA in ovaries of 18-month-old shrimp at 6 and 24h post-injection (hpi) (P<0.05). The rPmCdc48-VCP protein and its polyclonal antibody were successfully produced. Cellular localization revealed that PmVCP was localized in the ooplasm of previtellogenic oocytes. Subsequently, it was translocated into the germinal vesicle of vitellogenic oocytes. Interestingly, PmVCP was found in nucleo-cytoplasmic compartments, in the cytoskeletal architecture and in the plasma membrane of mature oocytes in both intact and eyestalk-ablated broodstock.

Abstract
Background The multixenobiotic resistance system (MXR) allows aquatic organisms to cope with their habitat despite high pollution levels by over-expressing membrane and intracellular transporters, including the P-glycoprotein (Pgp). In mammals transcription of the ABCB1 gene encoding Pgp is under cAMP/PKA-mediated regulation; whether this is true in mollusks is not fully clarified. Methodology/Principal Findings cAMP/PKA regulation and ABCB mRNA expression were assessed in haemocytes from Mediterranean mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) exposed in vivo for 1 week to 0.3 ng/L fluoxetine (FX) alone or in combination with 0.3 ng/L propranolol (PROP). FX significantly decreased cAMP levels and PKA activity, and induced ABCB mRNA down-regulation. FX effects were abolished in the presence of PROP. In vitro experiments using haemocytes treated with physiological agonists (noradrenaline and serotonin) and pharmacological modulators (PROP, forskolin, dbcAMP, and H89) of the cAMP/PKA system were performed to obtain clear evidence about the involvement of the signaling pathway in the transcriptional regulation of ABCB. Serotonin (5-HT) decreased cAMP levels, PKA activity and ABCB mRNA expression but increased the mRNA levels for a putative 5-HT1 receptor. Interestingly, 5-HT1 was also over-expressed after in vivo exposures to FX. 5-HT effects were counteracted by PROP. Forskolin and dbcAMP increased PKA activity as well as ABCB mRNA expression; the latter effect was abolished in the presence of the PKA inhibitor H89. Conclusions This study provides the first direct evidence for the cAMP/PKA-mediated regulation of ABCB transcription in mussels.

Abstract
Biogenic amines are implicated in several mental disorders, many of which involve social interactions. Simple model systems, such as crustaceans, are often more amenable than vertebrates for studying mechanisms underlying behaviors. Although various cellular responses of biogenic amines have been characterized in crustaceans, the mechanisms linking these molecules to behavior remain largely unknown. Observed effects of serotonin receptor agonists and antagonists in abdomen posture, escape responses, and fighting have led to the suggestion that biogenic amine receptors may play a role in modulating interactive behaviors. As a first step in understanding this potential role of such receptors, we have cloned and fully sequenced two serotonin receptors, 5-HT(1Mac) and 5-HT(2Mac), from the CNS of the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii and have mapped their CNS immunohistochemical distribution. 5-HT(1Mac) was found primarily on the membranes of subsets of cells in all CNS ganglia, in fibers that traverse all CNS regions, and in the cytoplasm of a small number of cells in the brain and circum- and subesophageal ganglia (SEG), most of which also appear to contain dopamine. The pattern of 5-HT(2Mac) immunoreactivity was found to differ significantly; it was found mostly in the central neuropil area of all ganglia, in glomeruli of the brain's olfactory lobes, and in the cytoplasm of a small number of neurons in the SEG, thoracic, and some abdominal ganglia. The observed differences in terms of localization, distribution within cells, and intensity of immunoreactive staining throughout the prawn's CNS suggest that these receptors are likely to play different roles.
