A full-length cDNA encoding the insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) was cloned from the liver of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) by RT-PCR. The IGFBP-3 cDNA sequence is 1,680 bp long and has an open reading frame of 882 bp encoding a predicted polypeptide of 293 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence contains a putative signal peptide of 25 amino acid residues resulting in a mature protein of 268 amino acids. A single band of approximate 1.9 kb was found in liver by Northern blot analysis. IGFBP-3 mRNA was observed in all regions of brain with high levels. In peripheral tissues, high levels of IGFBP-3 mRNA were found in retina, red muscle, liver, heart, posterior intestine, spleen, and testis. Relatively lower levels were found in white muscle, kidney, thymus gland, and ovary, while in head kidney, blood, skin, gill, middle intestine, and anterior intestine, the IGFBP-3 mRNA levels were much lower. IGFBP-3 mRNA was first detected in the blastula stage with significantly high level. The level sharply decreased in gastrula stage, and it became to increase in the following stages. During the reproductive cycle, the abundance of IGFBP-3 mRNA significantly decreased between the recrudescing stage and the matured stage in ovary, although in testis, IGFBP-3 mRNA expression level did not exhibit a significant change. The mRNA expression profiles in the present study imply that the IGFBP-3 may play important physiological functions in common carp development and reproduction.  相似文献

A study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary non‐protein energy sources on growth, tissue lipid accumulation and lipid metabolism‐related genes expression of grass carp. Triplicate groups of fish were fed for 9 weeks on four isonitrogenous (300 g kg?1) experimental diets with four levels of non‐protein energy (6.52 kJ g?1 control diet, 5.32 kJ g?1 high‐CEL diet, 8.46 kJ g?1 high‐CHO diet and 8.53 kJ g?1 high‐LIP diet respectively). Increasing dietary non‐protein energy source levels did not improve the growth, and the high‐CEL diet reduced the growth of grass carp. The high‐CHO diet tended to induce high hepatosomatic index, with high fat and glycogen content of liver. However, the high‐LIP diet caused the high mesenteric fat index, but did not increase liver fat. The mRNA abundance and activities of hepatic lipogenic enzymes were significantly increased in the high‐CHO diet group, whereas the opposite tendencies were observed in the high‐LIP diet group. Peroxisome proliferator‐actived receptor‐α (PPARα) in liver and PPARγ in mesenteric adipose tissue were up‐regulated in the high‐CEL diet group. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene expression was significantly increased both in liver and mesenteric adipose tissue of fish fed the high‐LIP diet, while the LPL gene expression was up‐regulated in liver but down‐regulated in mesenteric adipose tissue of fish fed the high‐CEL diet. These findings suggest that an increase in dietary non‐protein energy sources alters the genes expression of lipid metabolism and increased lipid deposition.  相似文献

为探讨Adipo R1-B在鱼类糖类和脂质代谢中的作用,本实验采用RACE方法获得了草鱼Adipo R1-B的全长c DNA序列(登录号:KP733846),利用生物信息学技术对该基因及其所编码蛋白的结构特征进行了分析;采用实时定量PCR技术,检测了Adipo R1-B在19个不同组织中的表达特性以及高糖(45%)、高脂(8%)和高糖高脂饲喂对草鱼肝脏中该基因表达的影响。结果显示,草鱼Adipo R1-B c DNA全长2186 bp,其中开放读码框为1122 bp,编码373个氨基酸;跨膜结构分析表明草鱼Adipo R1-B为典型的7次跨膜蛋白;同源性分析结果显示,草鱼Adipo R1-B与其他物种的Adipo R1-B高度同源(氨基酸相似度78%以上),并与斑马鱼Adipo R1-B的进化关系最近;组织分布结果显示,Adipo R1-B在草鱼肝脏中表达量最高,中枢神经系统和红肌次之;此外,高脂和高糖高脂饲喂均能够显著提高草鱼肝脏中Adipo R1-B的表达水平。因此,草鱼肝脏中Adipo R1-B的表达水平受到日粮中脂类水平的调控,推测该受体可能在调节鱼类脂质代谢中发挥重要作用。  相似文献

Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a multi-functional brain–gut peptide in fish and mammals. To investigate the role of CCK in appetite regulation in fish, a 770-bp full-length cDNA sequence of CCK gene was obtained by RT-PCR and rapid amplification of cDNA ends methods in grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idellus. Homology analysis showed that the CCK cDNA sequence of grass carp had the highest similarity (90 %) to that of goldfish Carassius auratus and a higher similarity (>70 %) to those of other teleosts than to mammals. The PCR amplification using genomic DNA identified that the CCK gene of grass carp was comprised of three exons and two introns. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect CCK mRNA expression in adult tissues. High levels of gene expression were found in the hypothalamus and pituitary; moderate levels in the intestine, muscle and white adipose tissue; and low levels in other tissues. During early development (i.e., fertilized eggs to 35-day post-hatching larvae) the levels of CCK mRNA expression were higher during embryonic developmental stages than during post-hatch larval stages. Fasting decreased CCK mRNA expression levels in the brain and intestine, whereas refeeding resulted in an increase of expression. The results suggest that CCK mRNA expression has obvious tissue specificity and may have a role in feed intake regulation in grass carp.  相似文献

An expressed sequence tag of grass carp leukocyte cell–derived chemotaxin 2 (LECT2) gene was screened from an established intestinal cDNA library. Rapid amplification of cDNA ends gave rise to a full-length LECT2 cDNA (gcLECT2) with a complete open-reading frame of 474 bp, encoding 158 amino acids about 17.9 kDa. Homology search and sequence alignment showed that this deduced protein sequence shared a high identity with LECT2 from other vertebrates. Western blotting indicated immunological cross-reactivity occurs between grass carp and human LECT2 protein. This gcLECT2 genomic sequence is 1,868 bp in size, which consists of five exons and four introns. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis revealed that gcLECT2 gene is ubiquitously expressed in different tissues of healthy grass carp including brain, gut, liver, spleen, kidney, muscle and heart, while the expression levels were significantly increased in liver and spleen followed by Aeromonas salmonicida infection. 992 bp 5′-flanking region sequence was cloned and analyzed, where one CAAT box and one GC island were found. Our results showed that the LECT2 is suggested to be most possibly involved in the grass carp’s immune response.  相似文献

草鱼SREBP-1基因的克隆及糖对其在肝脏中表达的影响   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0  
固醇调节元件结合蛋白(SREBPs)是调控糖脂代谢相关基因表达的关键核转录因子。为获知草鱼SREBP-1基因的序列及其在肝脏中的表达规律,本实验采用同源克隆和RACE方法获得了草鱼SREBP-1基因的部分cDNA序列,并通过生物信息学方法对该基因及所编码蛋白的结构特征进行了分析;采用实时荧光定量PCR技术,对SREBP-1基因在8种不同组织的表达规律及低糖(糖含量24%)和高糖(糖含量42%)投喂条件下肝脏中的表达水平进行了研究。结果显示,所克隆到的草鱼SREBP-1基因cDNA长4 760 bp,其中包括开放读码框3 426bp,编码1 141个氨基酸;草鱼SREBP-1具有一个典型的碱性螺旋-环-螺旋亮氨酸拉链结构(bHLH-zip);氨基酸序列比对结果显示,草鱼SREBP-1与其他鱼类的同源性在76%~88%之间,与斑马鱼的进化关系最近;草鱼SREBP-1基因在脑中的表达量最高,肝脏和肠次之,在肾脏、脾脏、肌肉、脂肪和性腺中均有少量表达;与对照组相比,SREBP-1基因在高糖诱导下表达量显著提高(P0.05),低糖诱导下没有显著性差异。研究表明,在高糖负荷条件下,草鱼肝脏中SREBP-1可能会促进糖的利用和转化,从而参与糖代谢调节过程,为丰富鱼类糖代谢调控机理提供研究资料,并有望为提高鱼类对饲料糖的利用效率提供理论依据。  相似文献

The stearoyl-CoA desaturase cDNA in tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) was cloned by RT-PCR and RACE, and it was compared with those in grass carp, common carp and milkfish. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed that the full length of cDNA (1172 bp) clone encompasses 1008 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding 336 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence shares 78–82% identity with the teleosts and 64–66% with mammals compared, and like these fish, the cloned tilapia stearoyl-CoA desaturase amino acid sequence conserves three histidine cluster motifs (one HXXXXH and two HXXHH), which functioned as non-heme iron binding sites, essential for stearoyl-CoA desaturase activity. RT-PCR and Northern blot analysis reveal that tilapia stearoyl-CoA desaturase is expressed only in liver, but the stearoyl-CoA desaturase expression in multiple tissues was observed in milkfish, grass carp and carp. Further, the hormonal regulation of stearoyl-CoA desaturase gene expression was investigated by a single injection of 17β-estradiol and testosterone. The results showed that the administration of 17β-estradiol to tilapia led to a greater increase in desaturase activity than testosterone, and higher doses of steroids produced greater increases in enzyme activity. The comparative RT-PCR analysis showed that the stearoyl-CoA desaturase mRNA level increased significantly in 17β-estradiol treated animals, especially in the groups receiving a single injection of 50 mg 17β-estradiol. This was reflected in the decrease in the saturated fatty acids and the increase in the monounsaturated fatty acids. The proportion of the polyunsaturated fatty acids was not affected.  相似文献

ghrelin是一种在脊椎动物摄食调节过程中起重要作用的脑肠肽,具有明显的摄食促进作用。实验利用同源克隆技术获得了草鱼ghrelin基因的cDNA序列和DNA序列,其中cDNA序列全长506 bp,包括90 bp的5′端非编码区(5′-untranslated region,5′UTR),312 bp的开放阅读框(open reading frame,ORF),以及104 bp的3′端非编码区(3′-untranslated region,3′UTR)。开放阅读框编码的103个氨基酸的ghrelin前体肽,经剪切加工后形成含有19个氨基酸的成熟肽。氨基酸序列分析结果显示,草鱼ghrelin与硬骨鱼类ghrelin相似度最高,而与其他脊椎动物相似度较低,同时草鱼ghrelin成熟肽N端的"活性中心"(active core)为鲤科鱼类中常见的GTSF形式。与大多数硬骨鱼类的ghrelin基因结构相同,草鱼ghrelin基因也包括4个外显子和3个内含子。荧光定量PCR检测到ghrelin mRNA大量分布于草鱼的前肠和脾,脑、肾、肝、肌肉、皮和鳔等组织也有ghrelin mRNA分布。草鱼脑和肠中的ghrelin表达水平在摄食后下降,随着饥饿时间的延长表达水平逐步升高,最后维持在较高水平,表明ghrelin作为摄食启动信号对草鱼的摄食活动起到了促进作用。  相似文献

作为重要的转运载体,SGLTs(钠依赖性葡萄糖协同转运蛋白,sodium-glucose cotransporters)在物质的吸收过程中发挥着关键的作用。SGLT1和SGLT2作为SGLTs家族的重要成员,参与调节体内的葡萄糖吸收,从而维持血糖的稳态。为研究SGLT1和SGLT2在草鱼葡萄糖吸收过程中的作用,本实验利用RT-PCR技术从草鱼前肠和肾脏中分别克隆了基因sglt1和sglt2,对其进行生物信息学分析,并利用荧光定量PCR技术检测其mRNA的表达。结果显示,草鱼sglt1和sglt2的开放阅读框(open reading frame,ORF)分别为1 977和1 989 bp,并分别编码658和662个氨基酸。经过预测,草鱼SGLT1和SGLT2蛋白均为14次跨膜结构。氨基酸序列比对及系统进化树分析结果显示,草鱼sglt1和sglt2与金鱼、金线鲃中sglt1和sglt2的亲缘关系最近。荧光定量PCR结果显示,sglt1在草鱼肠道和肾脏组织中表达量较高,在其他组织中表达量较低;sglt2在草鱼肾脏组织中表达量最高,在其他组织中表达量较低。葡萄糖灌喂实验结果显示,草鱼前肠中sglt1和肾脏中sglt2的表达量在灌喂1 h后显著增加。在离体实验中,葡萄糖处理CIK细胞能够显著增加sglt1和sglt2的表达量。本研究为完善SGLTs在调控鱼类血糖稳态方面具有的功能提供了理论依据。  相似文献

The solute carrier family 7A, member 7 gene encodes the light chain- y+L amino acid transporter-1 (y+LAT1) of the heterodimeric carrier responsible for cationic amino acid (CAA) transport across the basolateral membranes of epithelial cells in intestine and kidney. Rising attention has been given to y+LAT1 involved in CAA metabolic pathways and growth control. The molecular characterization and function analysis of y+LAT1 in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) is currently unknown. In the present study, full-length cDNA (2,688 bp), which encodes y+LAT1 and contains a 5′-untranslated region (319 bp), an open reading frame (1,506 bp) and a 3′-untranslated region (863 bp), has been cloned from grass carp. Amino acid sequence of grass carp y+LAT1 contains 11 transmembrane domains and shows 95 %, 80 % and 75 % sequence similarity to zebra fish, amphibian and mammalian y+LAT1, respectively. The tissue distribution and expression regulation by fasting of y+LAT1 mRNA were analyzed using real-time PCR. Our results showed that y+LAT1 mRNA was highly expressed in midgut, foregut and spleen while weakly expressed in hindgut, kidney, gill, brain, heart, liver and muscle. Nutritional status significantly influenced y+LAT1 mRNA expression in fish tissues, such as down-regulation of y+LAT1 mRNA expression after fasting (14 days).  相似文献

To investigate the correlation between lipid deposition variation and stocking density in Amur sturgeon (Acipenser schrenckii) and the possible physiological mechanism, fish were conducted in different stocking densities (LSD 5.5 kg/m3, MSD 8.0 kg/m3, and HSD 11.0 kg/m3) for 70 days and then the growth index, lipid content, lipase activities, and the mRNA expressions of lipid-related genes were examined. Results showed that fish subjected to higher stocking density presented lower final body weights (FBW), specific growth ratio (SGR), and gonad adipose tissue index (GAI) (P < 0.05). Lower lipid content was observed in the liver, gonad adipose tissue and muscle in sturgeons held in HSD group (P < 0.05). The serum concentrations of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) decreased significantly with increasing stocking density, while no significant change was observed for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Furthermore, the cDNAs encoding lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) were isolated in Amur sturgeon, respectively. The full-length LPL cDNA was composed of 1757 bp with an open reading frame of 501 amino acids, while the complete nucleotide sequences of HL covered 1747 bp encoding 499 amino acids. In the liver, the activities and mRNA levels of LPL were markedly lower in HSD group, which were consistent with the variation tendency of HL. Fish reared in HSD group also presented lower levels of activities and mRNA expression of LPL in the muscle and gonad. Moreover, the expressions of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) in both the liver and skeletal muscle were significantly upregulated in HSD group. Overall, the results indicated that high stocking density negatively affects growth performance and lipid deposition of Amur sturgeon to a certain extent. The downregulation of LPL and HL and the upregulation of PPARα may be responsible for the lower lipid distribution of Amur sturgeon in higher stocking density.  相似文献

ABSTRACT:   We purified cathepsins B1 and B2 from the ordinary muscle of carp Cyprinus carpio . The N-terminal amino acid sequences (12 residues) of 29 kDa bands of cathepsins B1 and B2 are the same and showed high homology of 75% and 83%, respectively, with the heavy chain of rat and human cathepsins B. Based on conserved sequences of other cathepsins B and the N-terminal amino acid sequences of 29 kDa bands, we cloned carp cathepsin B cDNA. The nucleotide sequence of carp cathepsin B cDNA consists of 1470 bp including a 993 bp open reading frame, encoding a deduced protein of 330 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of carp cathepsin B has similarity of 80% to rainbow trout cathepsin B and of 76–78% to other vertebrate cathepsins B. The sequence of its isoform was also determined during molecular cloning, which has 94.8% similarity with first cloned cathepsin B. They are completely same in N-terminal amino acid sequence of heavy chain, active site and potential N-glycosylation site. This indicates there are at least two kinds of cathepsin B functioning in vivo in carp.  相似文献

Over‐winter fasting and man‐made food deprivation to increase meat quality are common in the process of large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) aquaculture. This study aimed to determine the changes in lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and fatty acid synthetase (FAS) activities and mRNA expressions, and the relationships between these changes and fat content in large yellow croaker liver and muscle tissues during fasting. A total of 2933 bp LPL cDNA, including an open reading frame of 1533 bp encoding 510 amino acids, and a 1233 bp fragment of FAS cDNA coding 411 amino acids were cloned. Expressions of both genes were ubiquitous. During a 35‐day fasting period, the hepatosomatic index and fat content in muscle and liver were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). mRNA levels of LPL increased significantly during the fasting period except the first 3 days, and FAS mRNA levels decreased significantly in both muscle and liver (P < 0.05) although there were some fluctuations. Muscle and liver LPL activities were significantly higher following fasting for 7 days, decreased to the initial value following fasting for 14 days, and elevating significantly afterwards (P < 0.05). FAS activities in muscle and liver maintained a significantly decreasing trend during the short‐term fasting (P < 0.05) and kept obviously rising thereafter (P < 0.05). Activities and mRNA levels of both LPL and FAS were not always consistent, which implied that both pre‐translational and post‐translational regulations existed during fasting. Our results suggest that the reasonable fasting time is 21 days before harvesting when fat content decreased significantly.  相似文献

从分子水平上探讨了鳜解偶联蛋白1、2 (UCP1, 2)基因结构、组织表达水平及与产热、脂肪代谢等生理机能的关系。通过与脊椎动物UCP1、UCP2基因序列进行比对,设计简并引物与特异引物进行PCR和RACE扩增、测序、拼接序列,获得UCP1、UCP2的基因组序列和内含子/外显子结构。基因组步行法克隆鳜肝脏UCP1、UCP2 基因5′侧翼序列。应用半定量RT-PCR的方法,以β-肌动蛋白作为外参照,在其指数期增长的范围内得到鳜不同组织UCP1、UCP2的相对表达水平。结果表明,UCP1基因组全序列为3 146 bp, 5′侧翼调控区为1 333 bp,含有5个内含子和6个外显子,开放阅读框(ORF)长942 bp,编码一个大小为313个氨基酸的蛋白质。UCP2基因组全序列为2 890 bp, 5′侧翼调控区为1 800 bp,含有7个内含子和8个外显子,ORF长939 bp,编码一个大小为312个氨基酸的蛋白质。UCP1、UCP2间隔外显子的内含子皆符合“GT-AG”规则,内含子的数目与哺乳动物一致。系统进化分析表明,鳜UCP1、UCP2氨基酸序列分别与鱼类UCP1、UCP2氨基酸序列聚为一支,且与UCP3、UCP4、UCP5分支区分明显。鳜UCP1、UCP2基因不同组织表达水平的高低可能与鳜本身的生态习性及各器官在产热、脂质代谢中的作用相关,但明确的分子机制尚待进一步研究。  相似文献
