Project description:The growth and development of duck skeletal muscle is an important economic trait that is genetically regulated. The internal mechanism underlying the regulation of skeletal muscle growth and development in ducks remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to identify candidate genes related to growth of duck skeletal muscle. RNA-sequencing technology was used to com-pare the transcriptome of duck breast muscles in an F2 population with the high breast muscle rate (HB) and the low breast muscle rate (LB). A total of 14,522 genes were confirmed to be ex-pressed in the breast muscle, and 173 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified be-tween the HB and LB groups. Functional analysis showed that these DEGs were mainly involved in biological processes and pathways of fat metabolism and muscle growth, especially the FABP3 and MYL4 involved in the PPAR signaling pathway and cardiac muscle contraction pathway. These findings deepened our understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in muscle growth in ducks, and provided a theoretical basis for improving duck production and breeding of ducks.

Project description:The novel duck reovirus (NDRV) can cause hemorrhage and necrosis on the spleen of Pekin ducks, this disease has resulted in great economic losses to the duck industry. However, the molecular pathogenesis of NDRV remains poorly understood. In the current study, the quantitative proteomic analysis of NDRV-infected duck embryo fibroblasts was performed to explore the cellular protein changes in response to viral infection through iTRAQ coupled with the LC–MS/MS method. A total of 6,137 proteins were obtained in cell samples at 24 hours post infection. Of these, 179 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified (cutoff set to 1.5-fold change), including 89 upregulated and 90 downregulated proteins. Bioinformatic analysis showed that DEPs can be divided into the cellular component, molecular function, and biological process, they were mainly involved in the signal transduction, infectious diseases, cell growth and death, and the immune system. The subcellular localization of most proteins was cytoplasm. Importantly, the expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) and various interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) were upregulated after NDRV infection. The mRNA transcripts of some ISGs were consistent with proteomic data, showing an increased trend. Results of our study suggested that NDRV infection can elicit the strong expression changes of cellular proteins, and activate the expression of ISGs from the point of quantitative proteomic analysis. The study provides a new insight into the understanding of NDRV pathogenesis.

Project description:Feather evolution enabled feathered dinosaurs and early Mesozoic birds to venture into new ecological niches. Studying how feathers and scales are specified provides insight into how a new organ evolves. We use genome-wide analyses to identify feather-associated genes and test their feather-forming ability by expressing them in chicken and alligator scales. Intermediate morphotypes revealed five cardinal morphogenetic events: localized growth zone, follicle invagination, branching, feather keratin differentiation and dermal papilla formation. In contrast to molecules known to induce feathers on scales (retinoic acid, beta-catenin), we identify novel scale-feather converters (Sox2, Zic1, Grem1, Spry2, Sox18) which induce only one or several of the five regulatory modules. Some morphotypes resemble filamentous appendages found in feathered dinosaur fossils, while others demonstrate some characteristics of modern feathers. We propose that at least five morpho-regulatory modules were used to diversify ancient reptile scales. The regulatory combination and hierarchical integration led to extant feather forms.

Project description:Purpose:To understand the transcriptome regulator of duck spleen infected with duck enteritis virus (DEV).Methods:50-day-old ducks were inoculated with 100 titer (The TCID50 of DEV was 10-9/0.1mL) and 10-2 titer two different viral titer of DEV in leg muscle for different durations (66 h, 90 h and 114 h) and seronegative control (0 h) were analyzed using next-generation RNA sequencing.Furthermore, the data were validated using quantitative real-time PCR.Results:There were 534, 685 and 580 genes differentially expressed in 100 titer, moreover, 511, 485 and 531 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained from 10-2 titer for 66 h, 90 h and 114 h, respectively. These genes were mainly involved in functional categories including immune response, extracellular space, heparin binding, oxygen transport, extracellular region, cellular response to interleukin-4, MHC class II protein complex, antigen processing and presentation of peptide or polysaccharide antigen via MHC class II, and pathways such as ribosome, ECM-receptor interaction, cell adhesion molecules, JAk-STAT signaling pathway, PPAR signaling pathway, neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, phagosome.Conclusions: Different titers of DEV infection can stimulate different biological processes and signaling pathways in the spleen, and regulated the complex biological processes, metabolic and signaling pathways in the process of DEV infection.This transcriptome analysis of duck spleen infected with DEV in different time points is reported for the first time, it laid the foundation for further understanding of interactions between DEV and duck spleen tissue, molecular mechanisms of duck defend against DEV infection, and screening key functional genes.

Project description:Feather branching morphogenesis is a complex process which is likely to be regulated by many genes. Also, feathers from different body regions are drastically different in their morphology, thus suggesting differential gene expression. To understand the feather epithelial branching process, we profiled gene expression in the ramogenic feather epithelium in adult chicken where branching begins. Feathers from the neck, wing, and tail regions in their actively growing phase were each profiled.

Project description:Epithelial appendages are the product of epithelial – mesenchymal interactions. Tissue recombination experiments showed that in general, the dermis determines the phenotype of the epithelial appendage. Chicken dorsal skin epithelium interacts with its underlying mesenchyme to form feathers beginning at E7 (H&H stage 31), while metatarsal scale epithelium interacts with its mesenchyme to form scales beginning at E9 (H&H stage 35) which stabilize around E12 (H&H stage 38). We sought to evaluate the molecular differences of tissues with different competence and inductive abilities to form feathers and scales.
