The epithelial cells of the implanted mantle graft elongate and surround the nucleus, and a pearl sac is formed. Shell matrix proteins secreted by the pearl sac play an important role in pearl formation. We studied the gene expression patterns of six shell matrix proteins (msi60, n16, nacrein, msi31, prismalin-14, and aspein) in the epithelial cells associated with pearl sac formation. There were differences in the expression patterns of the six genes in the epithelial cells, and the relative expression levels for msi60 and aspein differed between the mantle graft and pearl sac (48days after implantation). Therefore, the gene expression patterns of the epithelial cells were genetically undetermined, and changed between before and after pearl sac formation. The gene expression patterns of the epithelial cells of the pearl sac may be regulated by the host oysters.
