Abstract
IGFBPs play a pivotal role in regulating the physiological function of IGFs (insulin-like growth factors). As an important member of IGFBPs, IGFBP3 is involved in the regulation of physiological functions of IGFs. To investigate the functional role of Igfbp3 in a herbivorous fish species, grass carp igfbp3 (GenBank accession no. MN251843) was isolated from the liver by molecular cloning. The ORF of grass carp igfbp3 was 882 bp, which encoded 293 amino acids, and the first 22 amino acids comprised the signal peptide. The predicted molecular weight of grass carp Igfbp3 is 31.95 kDa, and the theoretical isoelectric point is 8.32. Grass carp Igfbp3 displayed a high identity with its counterparts of common carp and zebrafish. And phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the grass carp Igfbp3 was clustered into the Igfbp3 subgroups of common carp and zebrafish. Tissue distribution study showed that igfbp3 was ubiquitously expressed in all tissues examined in the present study. High expression level of igfbp3 was detected in the heart, brain and fat of grass carp. The OGTT demonstrated that igfbp3 mRNA expression was significantly elevated in the liver of grass carp in response to glucose treatment. In vitro study showed that insulin could markedly stimulated igfbp3 mRNA expression in primary grass carp hepatocytes. Moreover, igfbp3 mRNA levels were also regulated by glucagon in grass carp primary hepatocytes. These results may provide the theoretical foundation for investigating the role of Igfbp3 in fish metabolism.
