Fatty acids （FAs） provide energy and also can be used to trace trophic relationships among organisms. Sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus goes into a state of aestivation during warm summer months. We examined fatty acid profiles in aestivated and non-aestivated A. japonicus using multivariate analyses （PERMANOVA, MDS, ANOSIM, and SIMPER）. The results indicate that the fatty acid profiles of aestivated and non-aestivated sea cucumbers differed significantly. The FAs that were produced by bacteria and brown kelp contributed the most to the differences in the fatty acid composition of aestivated and non- aestivated sea cucumbers. Aestivated sea cucumbers may synthesize FAs from heterotrophic bacteria during early aestivation, and long chain FAs such as eicosapentaenoic （EPA） and docosahexaenoic acid （DHA） that produced from intestinal degradation, are digested during deep aestivation. Specific changes in the fatty acid composition of A. japonicus during aestivation needs more detailed study in the future. 相似文献

The effect of water temperature on gut mass and digestive enzyme activity in sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus, including relative gut mass (RGM), amylase, lipase, pepsin and trypsin activities were studied at temperatures of 7, 14,
21, and 28°C over a period of 40 days. Results show that RGM significantly decreased after 40 days at 21°C and markedly decreased
over the whole experiment period at 28°C; however, no significant effect of duration was observed at 7 or 14°C. At 14°C, trypsin
activity significantly decreased over 10 and 20 days, then increased; amylase and trypsin activity significantly decreased
after 40 days at 28°C. However, no significant effect of duration was found on amylase, pepsin or trypsin activities in the
other temperature treatment groups. At 28°C, lipase activity peaked in 20 days and then markedly decreased to a minimum at
the end of the experiment. On the other hand, pepsin activity at 28°C continuously increased over the whole experimental period.
Principle component analysis showed that sea cucumbers on day 40 in the 21°C group and in the previous 20 days in the 28°C
group were in the prophase of aestivation. At 28°C, sea cucumbers aestivated at 30–40 days after the start of the experiment.
It is concluded that the effect of temperature on the digestion of A. japonicus is comparatively weak within a specific range of water temperatures and aestivation behavior is accompanied by significant
changes in RGM and digestive enzyme activities. 相似文献

夏眠是刺参(Apostichopusjaponicas)应对夏季高温低氧等不良环境的重要生存策略,而抑制高耗能的蛋白合成则是夏眠期机体有效降低能耗的重要环节。真核翻译起始因子eIF2是启动蛋白翻译的关键因子,在蛋白合成调控中发挥了重要作用。本研究克隆分析了刺参翻译起始因子eIF2α亚基(eif2s1基因)全长cDNA序列及结构特征,并测定了其在夏眠期间的时空表达模式。结果表明:刺参eif2s1基因序列较保守,与紫海胆该基因同源性最高。同时,刺参eif2s1基因在深度夏眠期组织中出现了不同程度的表达抑制,可能参与了刺参夏眠蛋白抑制调控。 相似文献

Growth, metabolism and physiological response of the sea cucumber, Apostichopus japonicus Selenka during periods of inactivity 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The growth, metabolism and physiological response of the sea cucumber, Apostichopus japonicus, were investigated during periods of inactivity. The body weight, oxygen consumption rate (OCR), activities of acidic phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (AKP), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), and content of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) in the body wall and coelomic fluid of A. japonicus were measured during starvation, experimental aestivation and aestivation. The results showed that the body weight of sea cucumber in the three treatments decreased significantly during the experimental period (P < 0.05). The OCR of sea cucumber reduced in starvation and experimental aestivation treatments, but increased gradually in natural aestivation treatment. The activities of ACP and AKP of sea cucumber decreased gradually in all treatments, whereas those of SOD and CAT as well as Hsp70 content decreased in the starvation and experimental aestivation treatments and increased in natural aestivation treatment. The sea cucumber entered a state of aestivation at 24℃. To some extent, the animals in experimental aestivation were different from those in natural aestivation in metabolism and physiological response. These findings suggested that the aestivation mechanism of A. japonicus is complex and may not be attributed to the elevated temperature only. 相似文献

以非夏眠期刺参(Apostichopus japonicus)为对照组,在刺参夏眠不同程度选取3个时间点,将其分为夏眠初期、深度夏眠期、夏眠解除期3个阶段,采集前肠组织为研究材料,制作石蜡切片,统计不同时期刺参前肠壁厚度、前肠黏膜上皮、黏膜下层、肌肉层和外膜的厚度及直径.结果显示,与对照组相比,夏眠不同时期黏膜下层厚度均无差异(P＞0.05),夏眠初期黏膜上皮和外膜显著薄于对照组(P＜0.05),深度夏眠期黏膜上皮和肌肉层显著薄于对照组(P＜0.01),刺参前肠直径在深度夏眠期显著变小(P＜0.01).计算前肠各组织层占肠壁厚度的比例发现:夏眠初期黏膜上皮和外膜厚度占肠壁总厚度的比例要显著小于非夏眠期(P＜0.05),黏膜下层的比例则显著变大(P＜0.01),肌肉层所占比例在深度夏眠期显著小于其他几个时期(P＜0.05). 相似文献

夏眠是刺参的重要生理特征; 夏眠期间, 刺参体重明显减轻, 器官萎缩、退化, 其中消化道退化明显。PDRG(p53 and DNA damage-regulated gene)是近年来研究发现与细胞凋亡具有密切联系的基因,其表达可促进细胞凋亡。本研究利用SMART RACE 技术克隆获得刺参PDRG 基因的cDNA 全长序列,并以此为基础, 研究刺参夏眠期间PDRG 基因表达与消化道退化的相关性。结果显示, 刺参PDRG 基因cDNA 全长为1122bp, 包含127bp 的5’非翻译区(untranslated region, UTR), 581bp 的3’UTR 和414bp的开放阅读框(open reading frame, ORF); ORF 区编码137 个氨基酸, 推算的分子质量约为16.1kDu, 理论等电点为7.83。研究通过25℃温度诱导刺参进入夏眠, 利用实时定量PCR 方法, 定量检测刺参消化道PDRG 基因表达, 结果表明: 夏眠期间刺参消化道PDRG 基因mRNA 表达水平与对照组相比出现显著上升, 实验5d 时显著上调至约2.49 倍, 10d 时显著上调至约1.51 倍, 而在0、20、40 d 时未检测出显著变化; 与刺参消化道相对质量变化数据结合分析表明, 刺参夏眠期间消化道的PDRG 基因高表达与其萎缩、退化密切相关。本研究阐明刺参夏眠期间消化道组织退化过程中PDRG 基因表达特征, 证明刺参PDRG 基因表达与消化道退化具有相关性, 为进一步探讨PDRG 基因在动物器官退化过程中的功能提供参考依据。 相似文献
