Expression profiles of two small heat shock proteins and antioxidant enzyme activity in Mytilus galloprovincialis exposed to cadmium at environmentally relevant concentrations

Abstract: Small heat shock proteins encompass a widespread but diverse class of proteins, which play key roles in protecting organisms from various stressors. In the present study, the full-length cDNAs of two small heat shock proteins (MgsHSP22 and MgsHSP24.1) were cloned from Mytilus galloprovincialis , which encoded peptides of 181 and 247 amino acids, respectively. Both MgsHSP22 and MgsHSP24.1 were detected in all tissues examined by real-time PCR, with the highest expression being observed in muscle and gonad tissu… Show more

“…Tissue expression of HSP20 is shown to be variable across species. In P. monodon , Procambarus clarkii , Actias selene and Mytilus galloprovincialis , HSP20 is predominantly in stomach, hepatopancreas, fat body and gonad respectively (Huang et al, 2008; Li et al, 2020; Qian et al, 2015; You et al, 2014). In our study, PtHSP20 was mainly expressed in muscle and followed by gill.…”

“…GPx also reduces lipid hydroperoxides to their corresponding alcohols. Therefore, theoretically exposure to environmental contaminations, such as heavy metals, can be evaluated by antioxidant enzyme activities [16][17][18][19].…”
