A Transgenerational Endocrine Signaling Pathway in Crustacea

PLoS ONE, 8(4), e61715.

By: G. LeBlanc n , Y. Wang n, C. Holmes n, G. Kwon n & E. Medlock n

Ed(s): B. He

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Cloning, Molecular; Crustacea / drug effects; Crustacea / metabolism; Daphnia / drug effects; Daphnia / physiology; Endocrine System / drug effects; Endocrine System / metabolism; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / pharmacology; Female; Fertility; Genes, Reporter; Life Cycle Stages / drug effects; Ligands; Luciferases / metabolism; Male; Molecular Sequence Data; Population Density; Pyridines / pharmacology; Sex Determination Processes / drug effects; Sex Ratio; Signal Transduction / drug effects; Transcription Factors / chemistry
TL;DR: Results reveal likely components to a hormone/receptor signaling pathway in a crustacean that orchestrates transgenerational modifications to important population metrics (sex ratios, fecundity of females) and how these signaling processes can facilitate population sustainability under normal conditions or threaten sustainability when perturbed by environmental chemicals.

Regulation and dysregulation of vitellogenin mRNA accumulation in daphnids (Daphnia magna)

AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY, 101(2), 351–357.

By: B. Hannas n, Y. Wang n, S. Thomson n, G. Kwon n, H. Li n & G. LeBlanc n 

author keywords: Vitellogenin; Water flea; Biomarker; Ecdysteroids; Estrogens; Endocrine disruption
MeSH headings : Animals; Cadmium / toxicity; Daphnia / drug effects; Daphnia / genetics; Daphnia / metabolism; Ecdysteroids / toxicity; Ecdysterone / toxicity; Environmental Pollutants / toxicity; Estrogens / toxicity; Gene Expression / drug effects; Heterocyclic Compounds / toxicity; Polycyclic Compounds / toxicity; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Vitellogenins / genetics; Vitellogenins / metabolism; Xenobiotics / toxicity

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that xenobiotics, such as tributyltin, can interact with RXR to influence gene expression regulated by the heterodimeric partner to RXR. (via Semantic Scholar)

2010 journal article

Interactions of the crustacean nuclear receptors HR3 and E75 in the regulation of gene transcription

GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY, 167(2), 268–278.

By: B. Hannas n, Y. Wang n, W. Baldwin *, Y. Li *, A. Wallace n & G. LeBlanc n 

author keywords: Daphnia pulex; Ecdysteroids; Endocrine disruptor; Nuclear receptors
TL;DR: The premise that HR3 is a major component of ecdysteroid signaling in some crustaceans and is under the negative regulatory control of E75 is supported. (via Semantic Scholar)

2009 journal article

Interactions of methyl farnesoate and related compounds with a crustacean retinoid X receptor

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 309(1-2), 109–116.

By: Y. Wang n & G. LeBlanc n 

author keywords: RXR; EcR; Methyl farnesoate; Daphnia; Tributyltin
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Base Sequence; DNA, Complementary / genetics; DNA, Complementary / isolation & purification; Daphnia / drug effects; Daphnia / metabolism; Ecdysterone / pharmacology; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / metabolism; Genes, Reporter; Humans; Ligands; Luciferases / metabolism; Male; Molecular Sequence Data; Open Reading Frames / genetics; Receptors, Steroid / metabolism; Retinoid X Receptors / chemistry; Retinoid X Receptors / genetics; Retinoid X Receptors / metabolism; Sequence Alignment; Sequence Homology, Amino Acid; Sex Determination Processes; Sex Ratio; Transcriptional Activation / drug effects
TL;DR: Results indicate that methyl farnesoate, along with compounds that are functionally similar to methyl farNESoate synergize with ecdysteroids to activate the RXR:EcR receptor complex, however, this effect appears to be unrelated to the ability of these compounds to stimulate male sex determination.

By: Y. Wang n, G. Wang n & G. LeBlanc n 

author keywords: crustacean; Daphnia; RXR; hormone; receptor; endocrine; sex determination
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Base Sequence; Cloning, Molecular; DNA, Complementary / genetics; Daphnia / genetics; Daphnia / metabolism; Ecdysterone / pharmacology; Fatty Acids, Unsaturated / metabolism; Female; Gene Expression Regulation, Developmental / drug effects; Male; Molecular Sequence Data; Phylogeny; Pyridines / pharmacology; RNA, Messenger / biosynthesis; RNA, Messenger / genetics; Retinoid X Receptors / antagonists & inhibitors; Retinoid X Receptors / biosynthesis; Retinoid X Receptors / genetics; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Sequence Alignment
TL;DR: Results show that branchiopod crustaceans dynamically express RXR which should be evaluated as a candidate receptor for the terpenoid hormone methyl farnesoate which functions as a sex determinant in these organisms. (via Semantic Scholar)
