摘要

The physiological functions of insect foregut,especially in xenobiotic detoxification,are scarcely reported because of unimportance in appearance and insufficient molecular information.The cockroach Periplaneta americana,an entomological model organism,provides perfect material to study physiological functions of foregut tissue due to its architectural feature.Through Illumina sequencing of foregut tissue from P.americana individuals (control) or insects treated with cycloxaprid,as a novel neonicotinoid insecticide,54 193 166 clean reads were obtained and further assembled into 53 853 unigenes with an average length of 366 bp.Furthermore,the number of unigenes involved in xenobiotic detoxification was analyzed,mainly including 70 cytochrome P450s,12 glutathione S-transferases (GSTs),seven carboxylesterases (CarEs) and seven adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette (ABC) transporters.Compared to control,the expression of 22 xenobiotic detoxification unigenes was up-regulated after cycloxaprid application,mainly containing 18 P450s,one GST,two CarEs and one ABC adenosine triphosphate transporter,indicating that the oxidation-reduction was the major reactive process to cycloxaprid application.Through quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis,the expression of selected unigenes (six P450s,one GST and one CarE) was up-regulated at least two-fold following cycloxaprid treatment,and was generally in agreement with transcriptome data.Compared to the previous midgut transcriptome of P.americana,it looks like the expressive abundance of the xenobiotic detoxification unigenes might be important factors to the detoxifying functional differences between foregut and midgut.In conclusion,insect foregut would also play important roles in the physiological processes related to xenobiotic detoxification.
