Cloning of lipid metabolism-related genes LPL and FABPs of cobia (Rachycentron canadum) and their mRNA expressions as affected by dietary fatty acid composition / 海鱺脂肪代謝相關基因LPL和FABPs之選殖及飼料油脂組成對其表現之影響

碩士 / 國立中山大學 / 海洋生物研究所 / 96 / The present study cloned successfully two lipid-metabolism genes, lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and fatty acid binding protein (FABPs) from cobia and studied the mRNA expressions of the two genes and their upstream gene PPARs when the cobia were fed diets containing 15% lipid. Among the lipids, 6% was fish oil and the remaining 9% were supplemented by fish oil (FO, rich in n-3 HUFA), perilla oil (PE, rich in 18:2 n-6), safflower oil (SA, rich in 18:2 n-6), olive oil (OL, rich in 18:1 n-9) or palm oil (PA, rich in 16:0). The whole sequences of LPL, liver-FABP (L-FABP) and muscle-FABP (M-FABP) encode 520, 126 and 133 amino acids, respectively. RT-PCR and real time PCR analyses based on these gene sequences show that the mRNA expressions of L-FABP and M-FABP in the tissue of the cobia were diet-specific. The mRNA expression of LPL, on the other hand, did not respond to the treatments, except in visceral fat depot. Linear regression analysis shows that the mRNA expression of LPL in the liver and muscle was positively (P<0.05) related to dietary fatty acids and ther concentration, but that in the visceral fat depot was negatively related. The mRNA expression of FABPs was also positively correlated with dietary fatty acid levels. Among all fatty acids, the levels of C14:0, C20:1 n-9, EPA and DHA were positively correlated with the mRNA expression of PPARγand also with FABPs mRNA expression in the visceral fat depot and LPL mRNA expression in the muscle. Thus, LPL, L-FABP and M-FABP mRNA expression of the cobia were highly influenced by the kind and amount of dietary fatty acids. The role of PPARs was not clearly demonstrated.
