Zusammenfassung: | Ovarian development is a complex physiological process for crustacean reproduction that is divided into the oogonium proliferation stage, endogenous vitellogenic stage, exogenous vitellogenic stage, and oocyte maturation stage. Proteomics analysis offers a feasible approach to reveal the proteins involved in the complex physiological processes of any organism. Therefore, this study performed a comparative proteomics analysis of the ovary and hepatopancreas at three key ovarian stages, including stages I (oogonium proliferation), II (endogenous vitellogenesis) and IV (exogenous vitellogenesis), of the Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis using a label-free quantitative approach. The results showed that a total of 2,224 proteins were identified, and some key proteins related to ovarian development and nutrition metabolism were differentially expressed. The 26 key proteins were mainly involved in the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway (UPP), cyclic AMP-protein kinase A (cAMP-PKA) signaling pathway, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway during oogenesis. Fifteen differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) were found to participate in vitellogenesis and oocyte development, such as vitelline membrane outer layer protein 1 homolog, vitellogenin, vitellogenin receptor, heat shock 70 kDa protein cognate 3 and farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase. Forty-seven DAPs related to nutrition metabolism were identified, including the protein digestion, fatty acid metabolism, prostaglandin metabolism, lipid digestion and transportation, i.e. short-chain specific acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, acyl-CoA desaturase, fatty acid-binding protein, long-chain fatty acid CoA ligase 4, and hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthase. These results not only indicate proteins involved in ovarian development and nutrient deposition but also enhance the understanding of the regulatory pathways and physiological processes of crustacean ovarian development.
