Transcriptome analysis of Penaeus vannamei hepatopancreas reveals differences in toxicity mechanisms between phoxim and prometryne.
2020
Abstract Due to overuse and terrestrial input, there are large quantities of phoxim and prometryne residues in some aquatic environments. In the present study, the effects of these compounds on Penaeus vannamei hepatopancreas were analysed at the transcriptome level to investigate toxicity in this nontarget aquaculture organism. Twelve normalised cDNA libraries were constructed using RNA from phoxim and prometryne treatment groups, and an untreated control group. A total of 667,750,902 clean reads were obtained. Analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identified 449 in control vs phoxim groups, 185 in control vs prometryne groups, and 183 in prometryne vs phoxim groups. In the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, arachidonic acid metabolism, pancreatic secretion, linoleic acid metabolism, and beta-alanine metabolism pathways were significantly enriched in control vs phoxim groups. In control vs prometryne groups, lysosome, pentose and glucuronate interconversion, antigen processing and presentation, and glycosaminoglycan degradation pathways were significantly enriched. In prometryne vs phoxim groups, protein digestion and absorption, extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction, PI3K-Akt signalling, cell adhesion molecule (CAM), AGE-RAGE signalling related to diabetic complications, focal adhesion, and renin secretion pathways were significantly enriched. In further detailed analysis, glutathione S-transferase (GST), glutathione peroxidase and basic phospholipase A2 were downregulated in the phoxim treatment group, indicating that phoxim damaged hepatopancreas. Upregulation of phospholipase A2 (secretory phospholipase A2-like) indicates possible inflammatory pathological injury to hepatopancreas caused by phoxim. Meanwhile, downregulation of CD63 indicates that prometryne affect the immune system.
