Scanning and Mining of High Fecundity Genes by Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) in Sheep (Ovis aries) Pituitary

ABSTRACT: The pituitary gland is an important endocrine organ that regulates estrus and reproduction in sheep mainly through hormone synthesis and secretion. In present study, Small-tailed Han sheep (high-reproduction group, HP group), and Wadi sheep (lower-reproduction group, LP group), were used as the experiment materials, and the differential expressed genes (DEGs) were scanned and mined by Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) in pituitary. A total of 7123 DEGs were found, including 3551 genes that were upregulated and 3572 genes that were downregulated in HP group. Go and KEGG related to pituitary function and reproduction were enriched, including reproductive processes, responses to stimuli, and synapses. mTOR signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, cAMP signaling pathway, ERK1/2 signaling pathways and MAPK signaling pathways. The DEGs detected in this study were involved in the development of tissues and organs and the secretion of hormones in the endocrine system. These findings suggest that these genes might be related to growth, development and the reproduction regulation in sheep, which could provide a scientific basis for elucidating the genetic mechanisms of high reproduction in sheep.

Identification of reproduction-related genes in the hypothalamus of the sheep (Ovis aries) using the ONT full-length transcriptome sequencing technology

Project description:the hypothalamus tissues of high-reproduction small-tailed Han sheep and low-reproduction Wadi sheep were collected, and full-length transcriptome sequencing by Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) was performed to explore the key functional genes associated with sheep fecundity. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened and enriched using DESeq2 software through Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG).

Expression profiles of oviductal mRNAs and lncRNAs in the follicular phase and luteal phase of sheep (Ovis aries) with two fecundity gene (FecB) genotypes

Project description:FecB (also known as BMPR1B) is a crucial gene in sheep reproduction, which has a mutation (A746G) that was found to increase the ovulation rate and litter size. The FecB mutation is associated with reproductive endocrinology, such mutation can control external estrous characteristics and affect follicle-stimulating hormone during the estrous cycle. Previous researches showed that the FecB mutation can regulate the transcriptomic profiles in the reproductive-related tissues including hypothalamus, pituitary, and ovary during the estrous cycle of Small Tailed Han sheep (STH). However, little research has been reported on the correlation between FecB mutation and the estrous cycle in STH sheep oviduct. To investigate the coding and non-coding transcriptomic profiles involved in the estrous cycle and FecB in the sheep oviduct, RNA sequencing was performed to analyze the transcriptomic profiles of mRNAs and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the oviduct during the estrous cycle of STH sheep with mutant (FecBBB) and wild-type (FecB++) genotypes. In total, 21,863 lncRNAs and 43,674 mRNAs were screened.Together, our results can provide novel insights into the oviductal transcriptomic function against a FecB mutation background in sheep reproduction.

Identification of Prolificacy-related Differentially Expressed Proteins from Sheep (Ovis aries) Hypothalamus by Comparative Proteomics

Project description:Reproduction, as a physiologically complex process, can significantly affect the development of the sheep industry. However, a lack of overall understanding to sheep fecundity has long blocked the progress in sheep breeding and husbandry. Herein, in present study, we aimed to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) from hypothalamus in sheep without FecB mutation in two comparison groups: polytocous (PF) versus (vs.) monotocous (MF) sheep at follicular phase and polytocous (PL) vs. monotocous (ML) sheep at luteal phase,expecting to provide an alternative method to identify DEPs associated with sheep prolificacy from the hypothalamus.

Transcriptome sequencing of Ovis aries

Project description:We have completed the high quality reference genome for domestic sheep (Oar v3.1) and performed a detailed survey of gene expression across different tissues. RNA-seq data of 7 tissue types from the reference female Texel and skin tissue from a Gansu alpine fine wool sheep were sequenced. Here is the part of the RNA-seq data sequenced in BGI, including 7 tissue types from the reference female Texel and skin type from a Gansu alpine fine wool sheep.

MeDIP sequencing of Ovis aries

Project description:We have completed the high quality reference genome for domestic sheep (Oar v3.1). Early-stage Illumina GA sequence platform sequenced less reads in high GC content regions than in other regions. To read through higher GC content regions, we generated 2 Gb MeDIP-seq data for filling gaps in sheep reference genome assembly.

Seasoning ingredients in a medium fat diet regulate lipid metabolism [WAT]

Project description:Despite a variety of seasoning ingredients in diets, little is known about their cooperative effect on animal metabolism. We fed rats a diet containing 30 wt.% instant noodle with a 26% fat-to-energy ratio for 30 days (N-group). Compared with rats that were fed the same diet without seasonings (C-group), the N-group showed lower liver triacylglycerol levels and higher fecal cholesterol levels. To assess the mechanisms underlying this phenotype, we conducted transcriptome analyses of the hypothalamic–pituitary axis (HP), liver and white adipose tissue (WAT). Our results suggest that these ingredients may affect lipid homeostasis via the HP axis.
