Genetic Mechanism of Tissue-Specific Expression of <i>PPAR</i> Genes in Turbot (<i>Scophthalmus maximus</i>) at Different Temperatures

In this study, we used PCR to measure the levels of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor genes <i>PPARα1</i>, <i>PPARα2</i>, <i>PPARβ,</i> and <i>PPARγ</i> in the intestine, liver, gill, heart, kidney, brain, muscle, spleen, skin, and stomach...

description In this study, we used PCR to measure the levels of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor genes <i>PPARα1</i>, <i>PPARα2</i>, <i>PPARβ,</i> and <i>PPARγ</i> in the intestine, liver, gill, heart, kidney, brain, muscle, spleen, skin, and stomach of turbot (<i>Scophthalmus maximus</i>) cultured under different temperature conditions (14, 20, 23, 25, and 28 °C). We used split-split-plot (SSP) analysis of variance, additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) analysis, and genotype main effects and genotype × environment interaction (GGE) biplot analysis to evaluate the genotype × tissue interaction effects on gene expression. The results of the SSP analysis of variance showed that temperature and tissue × gene have highly significant (<i>p</i> < 0.01) effect on the expression of <i>S. maximus</i> <i>PPAR</i> genes. The AMMI analysis results revealed that the expression of <i>PPAR</i> genes at the appropriate temperature (14 °C) mainly depended on genotype × tissue interaction and tissue effects. Under stress temperatures, genotype effects, tissue effects, and genotype × tissue interaction, all had significant effects on the expression of <i>PPAR</i> genes. The contribution of the genotype effect slowly increased with increasing temperature; it increased faster at 20 °C and then slowly declined at 25 °C. The contribution of the tissue effect slowly increased from 14 to 20 °C, where it sharply decreased, and then it stabilized after a slight fluctuation. The contribution of the genotype × tissue interaction effect showed a fluctuating upward trend throughout the experiment, and it had a significant impact on <i>PPAR</i> gene expression. The key temperature at which the three effects changed was 20 °C, indicating that it is the limit temperature for active lipid metabolism under high-temperature stress. The GGE biplot analysis results showed that under suitable water temperature, the expression difference of <i>PPAR</i> genes in the liver was the largest; at 20 and 23 °C, the expression difference in the gill was the largest; and at 25 and 28 °C, the expression difference in the brain was the largest. Overall, our results suggest that the mechanism responsible for <i>PPAR</i> gene expression under the three high temperatures (23, 25, and 28 °C) was relatively consistent, but it differed from that at 20 °C.
