Abstract
Maintaining chromosome euploidy in zebrafish embryonic cells is challenging because of the degradation of genomic integrity during cell passaging. In this study, we report the derivation of zebrafish cell lines from single blastomeres. These cell lines have a stable chromosome status attributed to BMP4 and exhibit continuous proliferation in vitro. Twenty zebrafish cell lines are successfully established from single blastomeres. Single-cell transcriptome sequencing analysis confirms the fidelity of gene expression profiles throughout long-term culturing of at least 45 passages. The long-term cultured cells are specialized into epithelial cells, exhibiting similar expression patterns validated by integrative transcriptomic analysis. Overall, this work provides a protocol for establishing zebrafish cell lines from single blastomeres, which can serve as valuable tools for in vitro investigations of epithelial cell dynamics in terms of life-death balance and cell fate determination during normal homeostasis.

Abstract
Four new embryonic cell lines derived from blastocysts of the olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus, an important commercial marine fish, were established and characterized. They were designated as PoEFCI, PoEFCII, PoEFCIII, and PoEFCIV and were all fibroblastic cells. The cells were cultured in DMEM/F-12 medium supplemented with antibiotics, FBS, and growth factors at temperature of 25 °C and subcultured for >100 passages over 18 months. The origin of the cell lines was confirmed by examining the partial sequences of the cytochrome oxidase c subunit I (COI) gene of the flounder mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The four cell lines showed different growth curve patterns. According to the results of gene and protein expression and enzyme activity, the cell lines PoEFCI, PoEFCII, and PoEFC III could be pluripotent. The cells of all four cell lines were also successfully transfected with the green fluorescent protein (GFP) reporter gene, suggesting that they could be used to study gene function in the flounder or other fish. More importantly, PoEFCI-III were sensitive to chromium (Cr) and red sea bream Pagrus major iridovirus (RSIV), so they could be used as a powerful tool for the study of the toxicological investigation of heavy metals and RSIV in fish. Therefore, these cell lines would be useful for biotechnological and toxicological research on marine fish as an in vitro biological system.

Abstract
Cultivated meat, also known as cultured or cell-based meat, is meat produced directly from cultured animal cells rather than from a whole animal. Cultivated meat and seafood have been proposed as a means of mitigating the substantial harms associated with current production methods, including damage to the environment, antibiotic resistance, food security challenges, poor animal welfare, and-in the case of seafood-overfishing and ecological damage associated with fishing and aquaculture. Because biomedical tissue engineering research, from which cultivated meat draws a great deal of inspiration, has thus far been conducted almost exclusively in mammals, cultivated seafood suffers from a lack of established protocols for producing complex tissues in vitro. At the same time, fish such as the zebrafish Danio rerio have been widely used as model organisms in developmental biology. Therefore, many of the mechanisms and signaling pathways involved in the formation of muscle, fat, and other relevant tissue are relatively well understood for this species. The same processes are understood to a lesser degree in aquatic invertebrates. This review discusses the differentiation and maturation of meat-relevant cell types in aquatic species and makes recommendations for future research aimed at recapitulating these processes to produce cultivated fish and shellfish.

Characterization of nanog in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and its spatiotemporal expression patterns during embryonic and gonadal development.

Abstract
Nanog is one of the well-characterized core transcription factors in pluripotency maintenance network. So far, studies on fishes indicate that the Nanog expression occurs from embryonic 1-cell stage to blastula stage, and is restricted to the gonadal germline cells in adult tissues, which is strikingly different from that in mammals. However, whether this expression profile is conservative in fishes remains to be investigated. Here Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) nanog (named as Ong) was identified and its spatiotemporal expression patterns during embryonic and gonadal development were investigated. The Ong cDNA contains an open reading frame of 678 bp, encoding 226 amino acids. The anti-Ong antibody was prepared through prokaryotic protein expression and its specificity was validated. The Ong expression in embryonic 1-cell stage did not appear until the early stage of blastocyst and continued to the late stage of blastocyst. In adult tissues, its expression was limited to gonads. Its expression patterns during gonadal development were further investigated by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemical staining. In testis, Ong was not expressed at 30 dah (days after hatching), but highly expressed in spermatogonia and spermatocytes at 150 dah; in ovaries at 30 and 150 dah, it was not expressed in germline cells but in all somatic cells. This expression profile is strikingly different from reports in fishes to date. Our study firstly indicates that the Nanog expression profile is not conservative in fishes. This study is valuable for further functional and evolutionary study of this gene.

Abstract
Pluripotency is a transient state in early embryos, which is regulated by an interconnected network of pluripotency-related genes. The pluripotent state itself seems to be highly dynamic, which leads to significant differences in the description of induced pluripotent stem cells from different species at the molecular level. With the application of cell reprogramming technology in fish, the establishment of a set of molecular standards for defining pluripotency will be important for the research and potential application of induced pluripotent stem cells in fish. In this study, by BLAST search and expression pattern analysis, we screen out four pluripotent genes (Oct4, Nanog, Tdgf1, and Gdf3) in zebrafish (Danio rerio) and crucian carp (Carassius). These genes were highly expressed in the short period of early embryonic development, but significantly down-regulated after differentiation. Moreover, three genes (Oct4, Nanog and Tdgf1) have been verified that are suitable for identifying the pluripotency of induced pluripotent stem cells in zebrafish and crucian carp. Our study expands the understanding of the pluripotent markers of induced pluripotent stem cells in fish.

Abstract
The deficiency or insufficiency of androgen can trigger a range of reproductive diseases as well as other symptoms. Stem Leydig cells (SLCs) are critical for the formation and maintenance of a functional androgen-producing cell (Leydig cell, LC) population throughout adult male life. However, to date, our knowledge about SLCs is poor. Here we report the derivation and characterisation of a clonal stem LC line (designated as TSL) capable of 11- ketotestosterone (11-KT) production from a 3-month-old Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) testis. The cells retained stable proliferation after 77 generations with normal karyotype and growth factor dependency. They expressed platelet-derived growth factor receptor-α (pdgfrα), nestin and chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter transcription factor II (coup-tfIIa), which are characteristic of SLCs. Upon induction in defined medium, TSLs could undergo differentiation into steroidogenically active LCs and produce 11-KT. When implanted into recipient Nile tilapia testes from which endogenous LCs had been eliminated by ethane dimethanesulphonate (EDS) treatment, the PKH26-labelled TSLs could colonise the interstitium, subsequently express steroidogenic genes and restore 11-KT production. Taken together, our data suggest that TSLs possess the ability of continuous proliferation and potential of differentiation into functional LCs invitro and invivo. To the best of our knowledge TSL might represent the first stem LC line capable of 11-KT production to date. Our study may offer new opportunities for investigating the self-renewal of SLCs and steroidogenesis invitro, and provide an invaluable invitro model for investigating endocrine disruptors.

Abstract
REC8 (meiotic recombination protein 8) is an essential component of meiotic cohesion complexes. Interestingly, two paralogous rec8 genes happen to exist in the stra8 (stimulated by retinoic acid gene 8)-absent fishes but not in stra8-existing fishes. Stra8 is usually considered as the prerequirement during RA (retinoic acid)-mediated meiosis initiation in mammals. However, how RA triggers meiosis in the stra8-absent fishes just like Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) remains elusive. Here we characterized the two paralogous rec8 genes in Nile tilapia (Onrec8a and Onrec8b), and investigated their expression patterns and responsiveness to RA signaling by treatment of ex vivo testicular culture and promoter luciferase reporter assay. OnRec8a and OnRec8b share 36% identity to each other and are true orthologs of REC8. Their expression was predominantly restricted to meiotic germline cells with differential spatiotemporal patterns. During spermatogenesis, OnRec8b predominantly exhibited nuclear expression in spermatocytes from 60 dah (days after hatching), while OnRec8a exhibited cytoplasmic expression from 90 dah. During oogenesis, OnRec8a was expressed from 30 dah, while OnRec8b from 90 dah. Further study shows that RA signaling could upregulate the expression of both Onrec8a and Onrec8b. Collectively, our data implies that OnRec8a and OnRec8b might have differential function during meiosis and be involved in RA-mediated meiosis program.

Abstract
Fish cell lines, collectively referred to as the fish invitrome, are useful diagnostic tools to study radiation impacts on aquatic health and elucidate radiation mechanisms in fish. This paper will highlight the advantages, discuss the challenges, and propose possible future directions for uses of the fish invitrome in the field of environmental radiobiology. The fish invitrome contains at least 714 fish cell lines. However, only a few of these cell lines have been used to study radiation biology in fish and they represent only 10 fish species. The fish invitrome is clearly not yet explored for its full potential in radiation biology. Evidence suggests that they are useful and, in some cases, irreplaceable in making underlying theories and fundamental concepts in radiation responses in fish. The debate of whether environmental radiation is harmful, presents risks, has no effect on health, or is beneficial is on-going and is one that fish cell lines can help address in a time-effective fashion. Any information obtained with fish cell lines is useful in the framework of environment radiation risk assessments. Radiation threats to aquatic health will continue due to the very likely rise of nuclear energy and medicine in the future. The fish invitrome, in theory, lives forever and can meet new challenges at any given time to provide diagnostic risk analyses pertaining to aquatic health and environmental radiation protection.

Abstract
Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells provide a powerful platform for the study of development, regeneration, and disease. Although many stable iPS cell lines have been established for mammals, few attempts have been made to induce iPS cells in nonmammalian species. Because of technical advantages over other vertebrates on stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells from fish could be of value for research. In this paper, stable iPS-like cell lines were generated from adult zebra fish fibroblasts by combining the doxycycline inducible lentiviral delivery system and chemical treatment. RT-PCR analysis, alkaline phosphatase staining, and immunofluorescence indicated that adult zebra fish fibroblasts were successfully reprogrammed into iPS-like cells (ziPSCs). The ziPSCs exhibited stable growth and manifested many features of fish embryonic stem cells with pluripotency in vitro and in vivo. Because of easy maintenance, the developed technology in this study for generating zebra fish iPS-like cells could be extended to investigating other genera of fish.

Abstract
A new embryonic cell line (OFEC-17FEN) derived from olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus was developed. OFEC-17FEN cells were subcultured for <30 passages over ~200 days. OFEC-17FEN cells had a doubling time of 114.34 h and modal diploid chromosome number was 48. The pluripotency genes POU5f1 and NANOG were expressed in OFEC-17FEN cells. However, the lack of several pluripotency-related genes expression indicates that OFEC-17FEN cells are not stem cells. OFEC-17FEN cells transfected with plasmid pEGFP-c1 exhibited a strong green fluorescent signal at 48 h after transfection. Accordingly, OFEC-17FEN cells may be useful for both basic research and biotechnological application.

Abstract
Gonadal cell lines provide valuable tools for studying gametogenesis, sex differentiation, and manipulating germ cells in reproductive biology. Female germline stem cells have been characterized and isolated from ovaries of mammalian species, including mice and human, but there has been very few studies on female germline stem cells in reptiles. Here, we described an ovarian stem cell-like line isolated and cultured from the Chinese soft-shell turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis), designated as PSO1. The cells showed high alkaline phosphatase activity with a normal diploid karyotype. As shown by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, the cells were positive for the expression of germ cell-specific genes, vasa and dazl, as well as a stem cell marker, nanog, but negative for the expression of the folliculogenesis-specific gene, figla. Likewise, through fluorescent immunostaining analyses, both the Dazl and Vasa proteins were detected abundantly in the cytoplasm of perinuclear region, whereas Nanog and PCNA were dominantly observed in the nuclei in PSO1 cells. Moreover, PSO1 cells transfected with pCS2:h2b-egfp could properly express the fusion protein in the nuclei. Taken together, the findings suggested that the germline stem cells exist in the ovary of juvenile Chinese soft-shell turtle and these cells can be isolated for a long-term in vitro culture under experimental conditions. This study has provided a valuable basis for further investigations on the molecular mechanisms whereby the germline stem cells develop and differentiate into gametes in turtles. Also, it has paved the way for studies on oogenesis in turtles, even in the other reptiles.
