• It identifies 24 eel gill specific short-term hypo-osmotic responsive proteins.
• It suggests the importance and specificity of cytoskeleton proteins during osmotic stress.
• It suggests a new combination method to understand the fish osmoregulation.
Osmoregulation in fish has been a classical research topic for several decades. Salmon and eels are the widely used model animals because of their wide distribution in different geographical locations and spawning migration between fresh- and salt-water habitats. Numerous fish osmoregulatory hormones and ion transporters were identified for their essential roles in acclimation and adaptation to waters of different salinities. Because of the lack of a genomic database, the scope of most studies, however, is very limited. Recently, our group reported the first high-throughput transcriptomic and proteomic studies to identify hyperosmotic-responsive genes/proteins in gills of Japanese eels. In this study, we aimed to decipher changes in hypo-osmotic-responsive proteins in fish acclimating from seawater (SW) to freshwater (FW) conditions. We collected gill samples from SW-adapted and SW-to-FW-acclimating fish. The respective gill proteins were extracted and labeled using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) and analyzed using a high-resolution mass spectrometer. In the short-term transfer from SW to FW, 51 hypo-responsive proteins were detected, and 24 unique hypo-osmotic-responsive proteins were identified (15 up-regulated and nine down-regulated proteins). Our data support the use of an omics approach to facilitate the application of functional genomics in non-model organisms.Biological significanceBy combining transcriptomic and proteomic approaches, the study has provided the most comprehensive, targeted investigation of eel gill hypo-osmotic responsive proteins that provides molecular insights of osmoregulation mechanisms in a non-model organism, eel.This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Proteomics of non-model organisms.
