    Kisspeptin has an important role in the regulation of reproduction by directly stimulating the secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in mammals. In non-mammalian vertebrates, there are multiple kisspeptins (Kiss1 and Kiss2) and kisspeptin receptor types, and the two kisspeptins in teleosts have different effects depending on fish species and reproductive stages, serving reproductive and non-reproductive functions. In the grass puffer, Takifugu alboplumbeus, which has only a single pair of kiss2 and kissr2, both genes display seasonal, diurnal, and circadian oscillations in expression in association with the periodic changes in reproductive functions. To elucidate the role of kisspeptin in this species, homologous kisspeptin peptide (gpKiss2) was administered at different reproductive stages (immature, mature and regressed) and the expression levels of the genes that constitute hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis were examined in male grass puffer. gpKiss2 significantly elevated the expression levels of kissr2 and gnrh1 in the brain and kissr2, fshb and lhb in the pituitary of the immature and mature fish. No noticeable effect was observed for kiss2, gnih, gnihr, gnrh2 and gnrh3 in the brain and gpa in the pituitary. In the regressed fish, gpKiss2 was ineffective in stimulating the expression of the gnrh1 and GTH subunit genes, while it stimulated and downregulated the kissr2 expression in the brain and pituitary, respectively. The present results indicate that Kiss2 has a stimulatory role in the expression of GnRH1/GTH subunit genes by upregulating the kissr2 expression in the brain and pituitary at both immature and mature stages, but this role is mostly ineffective at regressed stage in the grass puffer.

    Fish are poikilotherm and small changes in water temperature can greatly affect physiological processes including reproduction, which is regulated by complex neuroendocrine mechanisms that respond to climatic events. This review provides evidence that anomalous high and low temperature may directly affect reproduction in fish by suppressing the expression of genes in the reproductive neuroendocrine system. The grass puffer, Takifugu alboplumbeus, is an excellent animal model for studying the thermal regulation of reproduction, for they exhibit periodic spawning activities, which are synchronized with seasonal, lunar and daily cycles. In the grass puffer, the expression of the genes encoding gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) 1, kisspeptin, gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) and their receptors were markedly suppressed in the diencephalon of fish exposed to high temperature (28°C) when compared to normal temperature (21°C), followed by the decrease in the pituitary mRNA levels for follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and growth hormone (GH). On the other hand, the exposure to low temperature (14°C) also inhibited the expression of gnrh1, kiss2, gnih and their receptor genes in the brain and fshb, lhb, gh and prl in the pituitary. Taken together, it is plausible that anomalous high and low temperature may be a proximate driver of termination of reproduction by suppressing the activity of the reproductive GnRH/kisspeptin/GnIH system, possibly through direct action of temperature signals at transcription level.

    Animals regulate a variety of aspects of physiology according to environmental light conditions via nonvisual opsins such as melanopsin. In order to study photic regulation of fish physiology, expression changes of the genes for melanopsin (opn4xa and opn4xb) and effects of light on them were examined in juvenile grass puffer Takifugu alboplumbeus using quantitative real-time PCR. In the brain of juvenile fish, no significant diurnal nor circadian changes were observed in opn4x mRNA levels. On the other hand, in the eyes, the mRNA level of opn4xa showed a significant diurnal rhythm with a peak at Zeitgeber time (ZT) 4, while no apparent circadian changes were observed. The mRNA level of opn4xb in the eyes showed a diurnal change similar to that of opn4xa, while it showed a significant circadian change. Furthermore, continuous exposure to light during a subjective night significantly increased the mRNA levels of opn4xa in the eyes at ZT24, suggesting that light induces gene expression of opn4xa in the eyes and that the induction occurs only during the night-day transition period. These results suggest that Opn4xa and Opn4xb play differential roles in the eyes of juvenile grass puffer to mediate the physiological effects of environmental light information.

    Tiger puffer, Takifugu rubripes, a commercially important long-distance migratory fish, return to specific spawning grounds for reproduction. To clarify reproductive neuroendocrine system of the tiger puffer, the changes in the expression levels of the genes encoding three gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GnRHs), gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), GnIH receptor (GnIH-R), kisspeptin and kisspeptin receptor in the brain and gonadotropin (GTH) subunits, growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL) in the pituitary were examined in the tiger puffer captured in the wild at different reproductive stages, namely immature and mature fish of both sexes, and post-ovulatory females that were obtained by hormonal treatment. The amounts of three gnrh mRNAs, gnih, gnih-r, fshb and lhb were substantially increased in the mature fish compared to the immature fish, especially in the females, and these augmented expressions were drastically decreased in the post-ovulatory females. gh expression showed a slight increase in the mature males. In contrast, kiss2, kiss2r and prl did not show significant changes in the males but significantly decreased in the post-ovulatory females. The present results demonstrate the expression dynamics of the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis genes associated with the reproductive conditions and the possible involvement of the GnRH/GnIH/GTH system in the regulation of the sexual maturation and spawning in the wild tiger puffer.

    Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I is a growth promoting hormone that exerts its actions through endocrine, paracrine and autocrine modes. Local IGF-I is essential for normal growth, whereas circulating IGF-I plays a crucial role in regulating the production and secretion of growth hormone (GH) by the pituitary gland. These actions of IGF-I are modulated by six insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs). In teleosts, two subtypes of each IGFBP are present due to an extra round of whole-genome duplication. IGFBP-1 is generally inhibitory to IGF-I action under catabolic conditions such as fasting and stress. In salmon, IGFBP-1a and -1b are two of three major circulating IGFBPs and assumed to affect growth through modulating IGF-I action. However, exact functions of salmon IGFBP-1 subtypes on growth regulation are not known due to the lack of purified or recombinant protein. We expressed recombinant salmon (rs) IGFBP-1a and -1b with a fusion protein (thioredoxin, Trx) and a His-tag using the pET-32a(+) vector expression system in Escherichia coli. Trx.His.rsIGFBP-1s were isolated by Ni-affinity chromatography, enzymatically cleaved by enterokinase to remove the fusion partners and further purified by reversed-phase HPLC. We next examined effects of rsIGFBP-1a and -1b in combination with human IGF-I on GH release from cultured masu salmon (Oncorhynchus masou) pituitary cells. Unexpectedly, IGF-I increased GH release and an addition of rsIGFBP-1a, but not rsIGFBP-1b, restored GH levels. The results suggest that IGFBP-1a can inhibit IGF-I action on the pituitary in masu salmon. Availability of recombinant salmon IGFBP-1s should facilitate further functional analyses and assay development.

    In an exposure test, wharf roach (Ligia exotica Roux) was exposed to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS )via diet (0.1 mg/g-diet) for 2 days. 1 day after cessation of exposure, concentration of PFOS was increased to 1019 ± 144 ng/g-wet and still detected to 377 ± 321 ng/g-wet at 12 days after the exposure. Biological half-life of PFOS in wharf roach was estimated to be 11.9 days. In a field study, wharf roach were collected from 14 coastal sites in Japan. PFOS were detected from each one individual in Tsuyazaki, Fukuoka Pref. (215 ng/g-dry) and Taira, Nagasaki Pref. (601 ng/g-dry). These results suggested that wharf roach could be a promised biomonitoring species for PFOS in coastal area.

    本研究では、概潮汐時計の機能的分子基盤の解明を目指して、潮汐サイクルおよび月齢に同調して発現する遺伝子群を網羅的に探索すると共に、それらの遺伝子の発現抑制による半月周性の産卵行動リズムへの影響を検討する。また、概潮汐時計と概日時計から構成されると考えられるリズム発振機構による生殖神経内分泌系の周期的調節の機能形態学的基盤を解明する。さらに、より普遍的な生物リズムの研究としての展開を目指し、半月周性リズムのOntogenyを解明する。令和3年度は、次の3つの研究成果を得た。
    1)潮汐サイクルと半月周性リズムに関連する遺伝子群を探索する試料として、産卵リズムの異なる伊豆川奈と佐渡姫津において、大潮と小潮の日の夕刻にクサフグ成魚を捕獲して脳を採取した。
    2)潮汐サイクル/半月周性リズムを作る時計候補遺伝子の機能解析のため、Vivo-モルフォリノによる遺伝子発現抑制実験系を検討した。脳髄膜で作られる糖たんぱく質であるエペンジミン(EPN)を標的遺伝子として、Vivo-モルフォリノ(EPN-MO)の配列、投与量、投与方法を検討した。また、ウェスタンブロット法と免疫染色法を用いたEPNタンパク質の解析系を確立した。EPN-MOを投与した個体では、遊泳阻害が見られたが、EPNタンパク質量の変化は検出されなかった。
    3)クサフグ仔稚魚に潮汐サイクルや月齢に同調したリズムがあるのかどうかを明らかにするため、産卵期に親魚を採集して人工授精を行い、仔稚魚を育成した。DanioVisionを用いて、クサフグ仔稚魚の自発行動リズムを解析した結果、成長段階によって明暗周期に関して自発行動リズムが異なることや明暗の切り替え時に自発行動量が高くなることなど、クサフグが独自の光応答性を持つ可能性が示された。さらに、EthoVision XTを用いたクサフグ幼魚の自発行動解析系を確立した。

    The present study dealt with production of functional recombinant insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) that are important regulators of IGFs. We first established a primary pituitary cell culture for immature masu salmon. We next expressed recombinant IGFBP-1a and -1b using bacterial cell system. These recombinant IGFBPs were added to the pituitary cell culture to look at how the inhibitory action of IGF-I on GH release was modulated. The result suggests that although salmon IGFBP-1a and -1b were believed to be inhibitors of IGF-I actions, they actually enhanced the action of IGF-I on the pituitary. Availability of recombinant protein will be extremely useful to further analyze functions of fish IGFBPs.

    Sex steroids are specific hormones in vertebrates, which control the reproductive function and maintain the balance of the nerve and visceral activities of the body. Their role is manifested through a complex metabolic system of steroidogenesis Thus, new functions of the sex steroid system are being discovered; however, many other functions remain unknown. In this study, we examined the sex steroid metabolic system of amphioxus. We found a major sex steroid metabolic pathway, 5α-reduced steroid, which is rarely used in vertebrates. In addition, the sex steroids are actively synthesized in the nerve system. It suggests that sex steroidogenesis of vertebrates is acquired in step with the evolution of a notochord and diverged during the evolution in Chordata.

    サケ型生殖腺刺激ホルモン放出ホルモン(sGnRH)は、サケ科魚類において性成熟を調節するもっとも上位の制御因子である。また、繁殖行動の一つとして考えられるサケの母川回帰行動の発現の制御にも関わっていると考えられる。sGnRHをコードする遺伝子の発現調節機構を解析することによって、動物の本能行動の一つである繁殖行動の発現の分子機構を明らかにすることができるのではないかという考えのもとに、ヤマメを材料として、次の二つの目標を立てて解析を行った:1.ヤマメのsGnRH遺伝子の構造解析、2.sGnRH遺伝子の発現の制御に関わる環境要因の解析。7年度の研究成果として、この2つの目標に対応して、以下のような研究結果が得られた。
    1.ヤマメの遺伝子ライブラリーから、二種類のsGnRH遺伝子(sGnRH-I、-II)をクローニングし、5′上流領域を含む、それぞれ4.8と4.5kbの領域の配列を決定した。sGnRH-IとIIは、他の動物のGnRH遺伝子と共通のエクソン、イントロン構造を持っていた。IとIIの間で比較した結果、コード領域は相同性が高いのに対して、5′上流領域は相同性が低く、それぞれ複数のパリンドローム配列が存在していた。これらの結果は、IとIIで発現制御機構が異なることを示していると考えられ、今後、発現制御に関わるパリンドローム配列の機能を解析していきたい。
    2.自然状態におけるヤマメの成長、性成熟にともなったsGnRH遺伝子の発現量の変化を解析するために、北海道立水産孵化場の協力を得て、稚魚から成熟にいたる各ステージのヤマメの脳、血液などを経時的に計16回にわたって採集した。今後、RT-PCR法、あるいはin situハイブリダイゼーション法を用いてsGnRHのmRNAの定量的解析を行いたいと考えている。
