    摘要:

    为研究长期低氧胁迫对精巢发育的影响,采用显微观察和转录组测序技术比较了常氧(6.5±0.2)mg/L与长期低氧胁迫(1.5±0.2)mg/L下,斑马鱼精巢组织的显微结构与转录组变化。结果表明:光镜切片下,长期低氧使斑马鱼精巢组织呈现精原细胞排列疏松、精子数量明显减少的现象;常氧组和长期低氧组精巢的转录组比较显示,683个基因在低氧精巢中表达量显著下调(P<0.05),710个基因在低氧精巢中表达量显著上调(P<0.05)。对差异基因进行基因本体论(Gene ontology,GO)和京都基因与基因组百科全书(Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes,KEGG)的富集分析发现,差异基因主要富集在肌细胞分化、对含氧化合物的反应、精巢发育和生物合成氨基酸等通路上。其中,aco2基因的高表达与idh3b基因的低表达可能与长期低氧影响精巢组织发育相关。与能量生成相关的基因pgam2、aldoaaaldoab在低氧精巢中表达量显著上调,提示低氧下精子的生成可能有更高的能量需求。另外,低氧斑马鱼精巢中多个肌细胞分化基因的显著高表达,可能是雄性斑马鱼性腺发育对低氧环境的适应机制。研究表明,在长期低氧胁迫下雄性斑马鱼性腺组织发育退化,通过转录组分析研究,可为揭示鱼类精巢的长期低氧适应提供新思路。

    Abstract:

    To investigate the effects of chronic hypoxia on testicular development, this study employed histological observation and transcriptome sequencing to compare the microstructural and transcriptomic alterations in zebrafish testicular tissues under normoxic [(6.5±0.2) mg/L] and chronic hypoxic[(1.5±0.2)mg/L] conditions. Key findings revealed that chronic hypoxia induced disorganized arrangement of spermatogonia and significant reduction in sperm quantity under light microscopy. Transcriptome analysis identified 683 significantly downregulated(P<0.05) and 710 upregulated(P<0.05) genes in hypoxic testes. GO(Gene ontology) and KEGG(Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes) enrichment analyses demonstrated predominant involvement of differentially expressed genes in pathways including muscle cell differentiation, response to oxygen-containing compounds, testis development, and amino acid biosynthesis. Notably, upregulated aco2 and downregulated idh3b expression patterns suggested their potential roles in hypoxia-impaired testicular development. The significant upregulation of energy metabolism-related genes (pgam2,aldoaa, aldoab) implied elevated energy demands for spermatogenesis under hypoxia. Furthermore, marked overexpression of muscle cell differentiation genes may represent an adaptive mechanism of male gonadal development to hypoxic stress. This study reveals testicular developmental regression in male zebrafish under chronic hypoxia and provides novel insights into the molecular adaptation of fish testes to prolonged hypoxic conditions through transcriptomic profiling.
