COMPARATIVE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY. PART D, GENOMICS & PROTEOMICS 2024; 50:101221. [PMID: 38430708 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbd.2024.101221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
Edwardsiella tarda (Et) is a zoonotic gram-negative pathogen with a diverse host range, including fish. However, the in-depth molecular mechanisms underlying the response of Labeo rohita (rohu) kidney to Et are poorly understood. A proteomic and histopathological analysis was performed for the rohu kidney after Et infection. The histopathology of the infected rohu kidney showed vacuolation and necrosis. After LC-MS/MS analysis, ~1240 proteins were identified with ≥2 unique peptides. A total of 96 differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) were observed between the control and Et infected group (ET). Metascape and STRING analysis were used for the gene ontology (GO), and protein-protein interaction network (PPI) for the significant pathways of DAPs. In PPI, low-abundant proteins were mapped to metabolic pathways and oxidative phosphorylation (cox5ab, uqcrfs1). High-abundance proteins were mapped to ribosomes (rplp2), protein process in the ER (hspa8), and immune system (ptgdsb.1, muc2). Our label-free proteomic approach in the rohu kidney revealed abundant enriched proteins involved in vesicle coat (ehd4), complement activation (c3a.1, c9, c7a), phagosome (thbs4, mapk1), metabolic reprogramming (hao1, glud1a), wound healing (vim, alox5), and the immune system (psap) after Et infection. A targeted proteomics approach of multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) validated the DAPs (nprl3, ambp, vmo1a, hspg2, muc2, hao1 and glud1a) between control and ET. Overall, the current analysis of histology and proteome in the rohu kidney provides comprehensive data on pathogenicity and the potential immune proteins against Et.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 265:130946. [PMID: 38521334 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130946] [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: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
The interleukin 23 receptor (IL-23R) is associated with a variety of inflammatory diseases in humans and other mammals. However, whether IL-23R is involved in inflammatory diseases in teleost fish is less understood. Thus, to investigate the potential involvement of IL-23R in fish inflammatory diseases, the full-length cDNA of IL-23R from grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella was cloned and used to generate a recombinant protein (rgcIL-23R) containing the extracellular domain of IL-23R, against which a polyclonal antibody (rgcIL-23R pAb) was then developed. qPCR analysis revealed that IL-23R mRNA was significantly upregulated in most grass carp tissues in response to infection with Gram-negative Aeromonas hydrophila. Treatment with rgcIL-23R significantly induced IL-17A/F1 expression in C. idella kidney (CIK) cells. By contrast, knockdown of IL-23R caused significant decreases in IL-23R, STAT3, and IL-17N expression in CIK cells after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. Similarly, rgcIL-23R pAb treatment effectively inhibited the LPS-induced increase in the expression of IL-23 subunit genes and those of the IL-23/IL-17 pathway in CIK cells. Furthermore, intestinal symptoms identical to those caused by A. hydrophila were induced by anal intubation with rgcIL-23R, but suppressed by rgcIL-23R pAb. Therefore, these results suggest that IL-23R has a crucial role in the regulation of intestinal inflammation and, thus, is a promising target for controlling inflammatory diseases in farmed fish.

Characteristics of conserved microRNAome and their evolutionary adaptation to regulation of immune defense functions in the spleen of silver carp and bighead carp. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2024; 144:109312. [PMID: 38122951 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.109312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Immune defense functions of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) have shown obvious evolutionary divergence. MiRNAs participate in the fine regulation of immune function. However, the evolutionary adaptation of miRNAs in the regulation of immune defense function is still poorly understood in silver carp and bighead carp. Here, small RNA libraries were constructed from the spleen tissue of one-year-old and three-year-old healthy silver carp and bighead carp, 424 and 422 known conserved miRNAs were respectively identified from the spleen of silver carp and bighead carp by bioinformatic analysis, which 398 were shared between the two species. These conserved miRNAs showed highly similar expression patterns between silver carp and bighead carp, but the abundance in spleen varied greatly in different species. Family analysis showed that miRNA families including mir-8, mir-7, mir-23, mir-338, mir-30, mir-27, mir-221, mir-19, mir-181, mir-17, mir-15, mir-148, mir-130, mir-10 and let-7 were the main miRNAs in the spleen of silver carp and bighead carp. 27 and 51 significant differentially expressed (SDE) miRNAs were identified from silver carp and bighead carp, respectively. Evolution analysis for the predicted target genes of SDE-miRNAs showed that ten biological processes such as blood coagulation, cell adhesion mediated by integrin and adaptive immune response were positively selected. In addition, immune genes including TLR3, NFATC3, MALT1, B2M, GILT and MHCII were positively selected only in silver carp, and they were specifically targeted by the SDE-miRNAs including miR-9-5p, miR-196a-5p, miR-375, miR-122, miR-722, miR-132-3p, miR-727-5p, miR-724, miR-19d-5p and miR-138-5p, respectively. PLA2G4 in Fc epsilon RI signaling pathway was positively selected only in bighead carp and was specifically targeted by the SDE-miRNAs including miR-222b, miR-22b-5p, miR-15c, miR-146a, miR-125c-3p, miR-221-5p, miR-2188-5p, miR-142a-3p, miR-212, miR-138-5p and miR-15b-5p. In particular, SDE-miRNAs such as miR-144-3p, miR-2188-3p, miR-731, miR-363-3p and miR-218b could simultaneously target multiple evolutionarily differentiated immune-related genes. These results indicated that in the spleen of silver carp and bighead carp, conserved miRNAs have obvious evolutionary adaptations in the regulation of immune defense function. The results of this study can provide valuable resources for further revealing themechanism of miRNA in the formation of resistance traits evolution between silver carp and bighead carp.

Abstract
The genus Aeromonas is a widespread pathogen that includes more than 30 Gram-negative species, many of which are opportunistic bacteria. Aeromonas species are naturally distributed in various aquatic sources. Infectious processes in marine animals such as fish usually develop under stressful conditions, and when their immune systems are weakened. MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) are short, non-coding RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression. Their diverse biological functions, such as influencing cell development, proliferation, differentiation, tumorigenesis, metabolism, and apoptosis have been studied in various animals. Fish is the most important source of aquatic nutrients throughout the world, and its market is constantly growing. Overpopulation in aquaculture brings infectious diseases that threaten the development of aquaculture around the world. There is extensive evidence that microRNAs are involved in modulating infectious processes and regulating the inflammatory response to major bacterial fish infections, including Aeromonas. Here, we review the current literature on the fish microRNA repertoire and outline the physiological roles assigned to microRNAs to provide a foundation for future research during Aeromonas infection. Understanding the interaction between microRNAs and Aeromonas may provide clues to a remarkable strategy for preventing Aeromonas infections in fish.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), which impact gene expression following pathogen infections, have garnered significant attention in recent years. Recent discoveries have revealed that lncRNAs play a crucial role in fish immune responses to pathogen infections. We investigated the influence of lncRNA-adm2 on the antibacterial immune response generated by Aeromonas hydrophila in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) through the adsorption of cid-miR-n3. Furthermore, we found that cid-miR-n3 interacts with lncRNA-adm2 and targets the 3' UTR of adm2. The upregulation of lncRNA-adm2 expression led to the suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (il-1β and il-6) in CIK cells, while anti-inflammatory cytokines (il-10) increased. Our research provides evidence that lncRNAs are involved in the antibacterial immune response of fish, expanding our understanding of the function of lncRNAs in teleosts.

Integrated mRNA and miRNA expression analyses for Cryptocaryon irritans resistance in large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 135:108650. [PMID: 36858330 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.108650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) is one of the most important mariculture fish in China. However, cryptocaryonosis caused by Cryptocryon irritans infection has brought huge economic losses and threatened the healthy and sustainable development of L. crocea industry. Recently, a new C. irritans resistance strain of L. crocea (RS) has been bred using genomic selection technology in our laboratory work. However, the molecular mechanisms for C. irritans resistance of RS have not been fully understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small non-coding RNAs that are post-transcriptional regulators, and they play vital roles in immune process of bony fish. Identification of anti-C.irritans relevant miRNA signatures could, therefore, be of tremendous translational value. In the present study, integrated mRNA and miRNA expression analysis was used to explore C. irritans resistance mechanisms of the L. crocea. RS as well as a control strain (CS) of L. crocea, were artificially infected with C. irritans for 100 h, and their gill was collected at 0 h (pre-infection), 24 h (initial infection), and 72 h (peak infection) time points. The total RNA from gill tissues was extracted and used for transcriptome sequencing and small RNA sequencing. After sequencing, 23,172 known mRNAs and 289 known miRNAs were identified. The differential expression was analyzed in these mRNAs and mRNAs and the interactions of miRNA-mRNA pairs were constructed. KEGG pathway enrichment analyses showed that these putative target mRNAs of differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were enriched in different immune-related pathways after C. irritans infection in RS and CS. Among them, necroptosis was the immune-related pathway that was only significantly enriched at two infection stages of RS group (RS-24 h/RS-0h and RS-72 h/RS-0h). Further investigation indicates that necroptosis may be activated by DEMs such as miR-133a-3p, miR-142a-3p and miR-135c, this promotes inflammation responses and pathogen elimination. These DEMs were selected as miRNAs that could potentially regulate the C. irritans resistance of L. crocea. Though these inferences need to be further verified, these findings will be helpful for the research of the molecular mechanism of C. irritans resistance of L. crocea and miRNA-assisted molecular breeding of aquatic animals.

Abstract
Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathways have a close relationship with many diseases, especially in terms of the regulation of inflammation and the immune response. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a heterogeneous subset of endogenous RNAs that directly affect cellular function in the absence of proteins or peptide products; these include microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), etc. Studies on the roles of ncRNAs in targeting the NF-κB pathways in aquatic animals are scarce. A few research studies have confirmed detailed regulatory mechanisms among ncRNAs and the NF-κB pathways in aquatic animals. This comprehensive review is presented concerning ncRNAs targeting the NF-κB pathway in aquatic animals and provides new insights into NF-κB pathways regulatory mechanisms of aquatic animals. The review discusses new possibilities for developing non-coding-RNA-based antiviral applications in fisheries.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are regulatory RNAs that modulate target gene expression after transcription. Pol-miR-194a had been reported to be a miRNA of Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) involved in Edwardsiella tarda infection. Here, we identified tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2) as a target gene of pol-miR-194a. Pol-miR-194a markedly repressed the protein expression of flounder TNFR2 (PoTNFR2) via specific interaction with the 3'UTR of PoTNFR2. PoTNFR2 responded to E. tarda infection in a manner that was opposite to that of pol-miR-194a and inhibited E. tarda invasion by activating the NF-κB pathway. Consistently, dysregulation of PoTNFR2 had a significant impact on E. tarda dissemination in flounder tissues. Together, these results add new insights into the regulation mechanism and immune function of fish TNFR2 and pol-miR-194a.

Abstract
The inflammation is considered to be the crucial determinants of lesion progression and plaque stability during atherogenesis. Tnfaip2 appears to be a regulator for carcinogenesis and infectious diseases. But its role in atherosclerosis is not clear. Here we first report that Tnfaip2 promotes the formation of atherosclerosis through enhancing the inflammation under oxidative stress condition. Although the endogenous expression of Tnfaip2 was upregulated under oxidative stress condition, the overexpressed Tnfaip2 could promote cells proliferation. This might result from the ability of promoting cells entering G2/M phase. Conversely, the cells proliferation and migration were significantly reduced in Tnfaip2 knockdown cells through inhibiting the activation of NF-κB/MAPK/Akt signaling pathways. However, the efferocytosis increased markedly due to the upregulation of "eat me" receptors, such as CD36, SR-A, and SR-B1, and the downregulation of "don't eat me" signal CD47. As a consequence, Tnfaip2 deficiency in bone marrow-derived cells inhibited atherosclerosis development in Ldlr-/- mice fed a high-fat diet accompanied by decreased inflammatory cytokines and shTnfaip2 could reduce the plaque lesions in ApoE-/- mice. These results indicate that Tnfaip2 might play an important role during atherogenesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Membranous nephropathy (MN) is an autoimmune nephropathy. The incidence of MN is increasing gradually in recent years. Previous studies focused on antibody production, complement activation and podocyte injury in MN. However, the etiology and underlying mechanism of MN remain to be further studied. METHODS GSE104948 and GSE108109 of glomerular expression profile were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, GSE47184, GSE99325, GSE104954, GSE108112, GSE133288 of renal tubule expression profile, and GSE73953 of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) expression profile. After data integration by Networkanalyst, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between MN and healthy samples were obtained. DEGs were enriched in gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG), and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks of these genes were constructed through Metascape, etc. We further understood the function of hub genes through gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). The diagnostic value of DEGs in MN was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. RESULTS A total of 3 genes (TP53, HDAC5, and SLC2A3) were screened out. Among them, the up-regulated TP53 expression may be closely related to MN renal pathological changes. However, the expression of MN podocyte target antigen was not significantly different from that of healthy controls. In addition, the changes of Wnt signaling pathway in PBMCs and the effects of SLC2A3 on the differentiation of M2 monocyte need further study. CONCLUSION It is difficult to unify a specific mechanism for the changes of glomerulus, renal tubules and PBMCs in MN patients. This may be related to the pathogenesis, pathology and immune characteristics of MN. MN podocyte target antigen may not be the root cause of the disease, but a stage result in the pathogenesis process.
