Identification and analysis of lncRNA, miRNA and mRNA related to subcutaneous and intramuscular fat in Laiwu pigs.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate adipocyte differentiation and metabolism, However, their function on subcutaneous and intramuscular adipose tissues in pigs is unclear. Intramuscular fat (IMF) is an important indicator for evaluating meat quality. Breeds with high IMF content are often accompanied by high subcutaneous fat (SCF), which severely affects the meat rate of pigs. It is of great significance for porcine breeding to study the mechanism of lncRNA related to adipogenesis and lipid metabolism.

Methods

We identified differentially expressed lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs in subcutaneous and intramuscular adipose tissues in three female Laiwu pigs by deep RNA-sequencing(|log2foldchange|≥1, P_value ≤ 0.05). The gene expression profiles of IMF an
