This study identified an insulin-like peptide (ILP) in Macrobrachium rosenbergii termed Mr-ILP and further investigated its function through glucose injection and RNAi. With the analysis of five other glucose metabolism related genes, this study shed light on the molecular mechanism of carbohydrate metabolism in crustaceans. Mr-ILP shared the typical skeleton with six conserved cysteine and mainly expressed in neuroendocrine system. In M. rosenbergii, the elevated hemolymph glucose concentration after glucose injection returned to basal levels in short time, implying an efficient regulatory system in carbohydrate metabolism. Hyperglycemic related genes answered the elevated hemolymph glucose concentration quickly with significant decreased expression level, while Mr-ILP showed delayed response. Instead, glycolysis increased after glucose injection, which indicated glycolysis might play an important role in lowering the abnormally high glucose level. In vivo silencing of Mr-ILP, by injecting the prawns with double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) for 21 days reduced its expression by approximately 75%. Accordingly, glycogen synthase decreased and the trehalose and glycogen level in the hepatopancreas were significantly reduced, indicating the function of Mr-ILP in oligosaccharide and polysaccharide accumulation. When Mr-ILP was silenced, the expression of hyperglycemic related genes were enhanced, but the hemolymph glucose level was not elevated significantly, which might attribute to the increased glycolysis to keep a balanced glucose level in hemolymph.
