Hepatocellular adenoma in a European flatfish (Limanda limanda) : genetic alterations in laser-capture microdissected tissue and global transcriptomic approach (2017)
Journal Article
Lerebours, A., Lyons, B. P., Bignell, J. P., Stentiford, G. D., Rotchell, J. M., Lerebours, A., …Stentiford, G. (2017). Hepatocellular adenoma in a European flatfish (Limanda limanda) : genetic alterations in laser-capture microdissected tissue and global transcriptomic approach. Marine pollution bulletin, 119(2), 120-127. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2017.04.052

Liver tumours in flatfish have been diagnosed using histopathology for decades to monitor the impacts of marine pollution. Here we describe the application of specific gene (retinoblastoma, Rb) profiling in laser capture micro-dissected samples, and...

Molecular changes in skin pigmented lesions of the coral trout Plectropomus leopardus (2016)
Journal Article
Lerebours, A., Chapman, E. C., Rotchell, J. M., Heupel, M. R., & Sweet, M. J. (2016). Molecular changes in skin pigmented lesions of the coral trout Plectropomus leopardus. Marine environmental research, 120, 130-135. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marenvres.2016.07.009

© 2016 Elsevier Ltd A high prevalence of skin pigmented lesions of 15% was recently reported in coral trout Plectropomus leopardus, a commercially important marine fish, inhabiting the Great Barrier Reef. Herein, fish were sampled at two offshore sit... Read More about Molecular changes in skin pigmented lesions of the coral trout Plectropomus leopardus.

Exposure to low pH induces molecular level changes in the marine worm, Platynereis dumerilii (2015)
Journal Article
Wäge, J., Lerebours, A., Hardege, J. D., & Rotchell, J. M. (2016). Exposure to low pH induces molecular level changes in the marine worm, Platynereis dumerilii. Ecotoxicology and environmental safety, 124(February), 105-110. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoenv.2015.10.008

© 2015 Elsevier Inc. Fossil fuel emissions and changes in net land use lead to an increase in atmospheric CO 2 concentration and a subsequent decrease of ocean pH. Noticeable effects on organisms' calcification rate, shell structure and energy metabo...

Intersex related gene expression profiles in clams Scrobicularia plana : molecular markers and environmental application (2015)
Journal Article
Langston, W. J., Ciocan, C. M., Hill, E. M., Lerebours, A., Rotchell, J. M., Rotchell, J., …Pope, N. (2015). Intersex related gene expression profiles in clams Scrobicularia plana : molecular markers and environmental application. Marine pollution bulletin, 95(2), 610-617. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2015.02.019

Intersex, the appearance of female characteristics in male gonads, has been identified in several aquatic species. It is a widespread phenomenon in populations of the bivalve, Scrobicularia plana, from the southwest coast of the U.K. Genes previously...

Genetic alterations and cancer formation in a European flatfish at sites of different contamination burdens (2014)
Journal Article
Lerebours, A., Stentiford, G., Bignell, J. P., Lyons, B. P., Derocles, S. A. P., & Rotchell, J. (2014). Genetic alterations and cancer formation in a European flatfish at sites of different contamination burdens. Environmental Science and Technology, 48(17), 10448-10455. https://doi.org/10.1021/es502591p

Fish diseases are an indicator for marine ecosystem health since they provide a biological end-point of historical exposure to stressors. Liver cancer has been used to monitor the effects of exposure to anthropogenic pollution in flatfish for many ye...
