Quantitative proteomic and metabolomic profiling reveals different osmoregulation mechanisms of tilapia cells coping with different hyperosmotic stress. J Proteomics 2024; 296:105113. [PMID: 38346667 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2024.105113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/03/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the different regulatory mechanisms of euryhaline fish under regular hyperosmotic and extreme hyperosmotic stress. The OmB (Oreochromis mossambicus brain) cells were exposed to three treatments: control, regular hyperosmotic stress and extreme hyperosmotic stress. After 12 h exposure, proteomics, metabolomics analyses and integrative analyses were explored. Both kinds of stress lead to lowering cell growth and morphology changes, while under regular hyperosmotic stress, the up-regulated processes related with compatible organic osmolytes synthesis are crucial strategy for the euryhaline fish cell line to survive; On the other hand, under extreme hyperosmotic stress, the processes related with cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest are dominant. Furthermore, down-regulated pyrimidine metabolism and several ribosomal proteins partially participated in the lowered cell metabolism and increased cell death under both kinds of hyperosmotic stress. The PI3K-Akt and p53 signaling pathways were involved in the stagnant stage of cell cycles and induction of cell apoptosis under both kinds of hyperosmotic stress. However, HIF-1, FoxO, JAK-STAT and Hippo signaling pathways mainly contribute to disrupting the cell cycle, metabolism and induction of cell apoptosis under extreme hyperosmotic stress. SIGNIFICANCE: In the past, the research on fish osmoregulation mainly focused on the transcription factors and ion transporters of osmoregulation, the processes between osmotic sensing and signal transduction, and the associations between signaling pathways and regulation processes have been poorly understood. Investigating fish cell osmoregulation and potential signal transduction pathways is necessary. With the advancements in omics research, it is now feasible to investigate the relationship between environmental stress and molecular responses. In this study, we aimed to explore the signaling pathways and substance metabolism mode during hyper-osmoregulation in OmB cell line, to reveal the key factors that are critical to cell osmoregulation.

[PMID: 38392325 PMCID: PMC10886319 DOI: 10.3390/biology13020107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024]
Abstract
In aquaculture, stress can negatively affect fish growth. For years, the cortisol hormone has been thought to play both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid functions. Nevertheless, recent research has suggested that 11-deoxycorticosterone (DOC) released during stress could contribute to cortisol actions, though this process is still misunderstood. Here, we evaluated the DOC effects on physiological and early transcriptional responses by RNA-seq. Juvenile rainbow trout were treated with DOC and/or glucocorticoids (mifepristone) or mineralocorticoid (eplerenone) receptor antagonists. Subsequently, plasma was collected, and cDNA libraries were generated from the gills of vehicle (control), DOC, mifepristone, mifepristone with DOC, eplerenone, and eplerenone with DOC groups. Calcium and phosphate levels in plasma were changed. Results revealed 914 differentially expressed transcripts (DETs) induced by DOC compared with control, mainly associated with sodium ion transmembrane transport, gluconeogenesis, negative regulation of transmembrane transport, and activation of innate immune response. DOC versus eplerenone with DOC comparison displayed 444 DETs related to cell-cell junction organization, canonical glycolysis, positive regulation of immune response, and potassium ion transport. Conversely, no DETs were detected in DOC versus mifepristone with DOC comparison. These data suggest that DOC has a relevant role in gill stress response and ion transport, which is differentially regulated by mineralocorticoid receptors.

AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2021; 240:105970. [PMID: 34562875 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2021.105970] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2021] [Revised: 09/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/11/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Increasing salinity levels in marine and estuarine ecosystems greatly influence developmental, physiological and molecular activities of inhabiting fauna. Marine medaka (Oryzias melastigma), a euryhaline research model, has extraordinary abilities to survive in a wide range of aquatic salinity. To elucidate how marine medaka copes with salinity differences, the responses of Oryzias melastigma after being transferred to different salt concentrations [0 practical salinity units (psu), 15 psu, 30 psu (control), 45 psu] were studied at developmental, histochemical and transcriptome levels in the gill and liver tissues. A greater number of gills differentially expressed genes (DEG) under 0 psu (609) than 15 psu (157) and 45 psu (312), indicating transcriptomic adjustments in gills were more sensitive to the extreme hypotonic environment. A greater number of livers DEGs were observed in 45 psu (1,664) than 0 psu (87) and L15 psu (512), suggesting that liver was more susceptible to hypertonic environment. Further functional analyses of DEGs showed that gills have a more immediate response, mainly in adjusting ion balance, immune and signal transduction. In contrast, DEGs in livers were involved in protein synthesis and processing. We also identified common DEGs in both gill and liver and found they were mostly involved in osmotic regulation of amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism and steroid biosynthesis. Additionally, salinity stresses showed no significant effects on most developmental and histochemical parameters except increased heartbeat with increasing salinity and decreased glycogen after transferred from stable conditions (30 psu) to other salinity environments. These findings suggested that salinity-stress induced changes in gene expressions could reduce the effects on developmental and histochemical parameters. Overall, this study provides a useful resource for understanding the molecular mechanisms of fish responses to salinity stresses.

Abstract
The cellular stress response (CSR) is pervasive to all domains of life. It has shaped the interaction between organisms and their environment since the origin of the first cell. Although the CSR has been subject to a myriad of nuanced modifications in the various branches of life present today, its core features remain preserved. The scientific literature covering the CSR is enormous and the broad scope of this brief overview was challenging. However, it is critical to conceptually understand how cells respond to stress in a holistic sense and to point out how fundamental aspects of the CSR framework are integrated. It was necessary to be extremely selective and not feasible to even mention many interesting and important developments in this expansive field. The purpose of this overview is to sketch out general and emerging CSR concepts with an emphasis on the initial cellular strain resulting from stress (macromolecular damage) and the evolutionarily most highly conserved elements of the CSR. Examples emphasize fish and aquatic invertebrates to highlight what is known in organisms beyond mammals, yeast, and other common models. Nonetheless, select pioneering studies using canonical models are also considered and the concepts discussed are applicable to all cells. More detail on important aspects of the CSR in aquatic animals is provided in the accompanying articles of this special issue.

Abstract
The induction of the myo-inositol biosynthesis (MIB) pathway in euryhaline fishes is an important component of the cellular response to osmotic challenge. The MIPS and IMPA1 genes were sequenced in turbot and found to be highly conserved in phylogenetic evolution, especially within the fish species tested. Under salinity stress in turbot, both MIPS and IMPA1 showed adaptive expression, a turning point in the level of expression occurred at 12 h in all tissues tested. We performed an RNAi assay mediated by long fragment dsRNA prepared by transcription in vitro. The findings demonstrated that knockdown of the MIB pathway weakened the function of gill osmotic regulation, and may induce a genetic compensation response in the kidney and gill to maintain physiological function. Even though the gill and kidney conducted stress reactions or compensatory responses to salinity stress, this inadequately addressed the consequences of MIB knockdown. Therefore, the survival time of turbot under salinity stress after knockdown was obviously less than that under seawater, especially under low salt stress. Pearson's correlation analysis between gene expression and dietary myo-inositol concentration indicated that the MIB pathway had a remarkable negative feedback control, and the dynamic equilibrium mediated by negative feedback on the MIB pathway played a crucial role in osmoregulation in turbot. An RNAi assay with c-Myc in vivo and the use of a c-Myc inhibitor (10058-F4) in vitro demonstrated that c-Myc was likely to positively regulate the MIB pathway in turbot.

Abstract
Fish respond to salinity stress by transcriptional induction of many genes, but the mechanism of their osmotic regulation is unknown. We developed a reporter assay using cells derived from the brain of the tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus (OmB cells) to identify osmolality/salinity-responsive enhancers (OSREs) in the genes of Omossambicus Genomic DNA comprising the regulatory regions of two strongly salinity-induced genes, inositol monophosphatase 1 (IMPA1.1) and myo-inositol phosphate synthase (MIPS), was isolated and analyzed with dual luciferase enhancer trap reporter assays. We identified five sequences (two in IMPA1.1 and three in MIPS) that share a common consensus element (DDKGGAAWWDWWYDNRB), which we named "OSRE1." Additional OSREs that were less effective in conferring salinity-induced trans-activation and do not match the OSRE1 consensus also were identified in both MIPS and IMPA1.1 Although OSRE1 shares homology with the mammalian osmotic-response element/tonicity-responsive enhancer (ORE/TonE) enhancer, the latter is insufficient to confer osmotic induction in fish. Like other enhancers, OSRE1 trans-activates genes independent of orientation. We conclude that OSRE1 is a cis-regulatory element (CRE) that enhances the hyperosmotic induction of osmoregulated genes in fish. Our study also shows that tailored reporter assays developed for OmB cells facilitate the identification of CREs in fish genomes. Knowledge of the OSRE1 motif allows affinity-purification of the corresponding transcription factor and computational approaches for enhancer screening of fish genomes. Moreover, our study enables targeted inactivation of OSRE1 enhancers, a method superior to gene knockout for functional characterization because it confines impairment of gene function to a specific context (salinity stress) and eliminates pitfalls of constitutive gene knockouts (embryonic lethality, developmental compensation).

Abstract
A single MIPS gene (Isyna1/Ino1) exists in eel and tilapia genomes with a single myo-d-inositol 3-phosphate synthase (MIPS) transcript identified in all eel tissues, although two MIPS spliced variants [termed MIPS(s) and MIPS(l)] are found in all tilapia tissues. The larger tilapia transcript [MIPS(l)] results from the inclusion of the 87-nucleotide intron between exons 5 and 6 in the genomic sequence. In most tilapia tissues, the MIPS(s) transcript exhibits much higher abundance (generally >10-fold) with the exception of white skeletal muscle and oocytes, in which the MIPS(l) transcript predominates. SW acclimation resulted in large (6- to 32-fold) increases in mRNA expression for both MIPS(s) and MIPS(l) in all tilapia tissues tested, whereas in the eel, changes in expression were limited to a more modest 2.5-fold increase and only in the kidney. Western blots identified a number of species- and tissue-specific immunoreactive MIPS proteins ranging from 40 to 67 kDa molecular weight. SW acclimation failed to affect the abundance of any immunoreactive protein in any tissue tested from the eel. However, a major 67-kDa immunoreactive protein (presumed to be MIPS) found in tilapia tissues exhibited 11- and 54-fold increases in expression in gill and fin samples from SW-acclimated fish. Immunohistochemical investigations revealed specific immunoreactivity in the gill, fin, skin, and intestine taken from only SW-acclimated tilapia. Immunofluorescence indicated that MIPS was expressed within gill chondrocytes and epithelial cells of the primary filaments, basal epithelial cell layers of the skin and fin, the cytosol of columnar intestinal epithelial and mucous cells, as well as unknown entero-endocrine-like cells.
