RNA-seq analysis of trait-associated genes (TAGs) in somatic cells from Holstein’s milk

ABSTRACT: Background : Although the chemical, physical, and nutritional properties of bovine milk have been extensively studied, few studies have attempted to characterize the milk synthesizing genes associated with milk yielding traits. In addition, no previous attempts have been made to detect quantitative traits such as milk production related traits, associated genes on RNA-seq experiment with several biological replicates. Research in this field is necessary as bovine milk is a primary source of nutrition for humans. Results : We investigated advantages of using linear models with continuous response variables over converted group variables in a Holsteins’ milk. Suggested methods were more suitable in detection of significant genes in our analysis; the proportion of false discoveries to total significant genes was observed to be much lower compared to the precedent approaches we employed. These were observed through mock comparison studies and quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). Conclusion : Several milk production related genes and pathways were identified from the suggested methods. Given the current trend in RNA-seq pricing, we expect our methods to be successfully applied in various RNA-seq studies with numerous biological replicates that handle continuous response traits.

The Small RNA sequencing of 12 mammary gland for Chinese Holstein Cattle

Project description:Milk protein is one of the most important economic traits in the dairy industry. Yet, the miRNA gene regulatory network for the synthesis of milk protein in mammary is poorly understood. In this study, the hypothesis was that miRNAs have potential roles in bovine milk protein production. Using miRNA-seq and RNA-seq, we investigated the miRNAs profiles of mammary glands from 12 Chinese Holstein cows with six cows at peak of lactation and six in non-lactating period, from which three cows were in high and three in low milk protein percentage.

Key changes in bovine milk immunoglobulin G during lactation: NeuAc sialylation is a hallmark of colostrum immunoglobulin G N-glycosylation Key changes in bovine milk immunoglobulin G during lactation: NeuAc sialylation is a hallmark of colostrum immunoglobulin G N-glycosylation

Project description:We monitored longitudinal changes in bovine milk IgG in samples from four cows at 9 time points in between 0.5-28 days following calving. We used peptide-centric LC-MS/MS on proteolytic digests of whole bovine milk, resulting in the combined identification of 212 individual bovine milk protein sequences, with IgG making up >50% of the protein content of every 0.5 d colostrum sample, which reduced to ≤3% in mature milk. In parallel, we analysed IgG captured from the bovine milk samples to characterise its N-glycosylation, using dedicated methods for bottom-up glycoproteomics employing product ion-triggered hybrid fragmentation. The bovine milk IgG N-glycosylation profile was revealed to be very heterogeneous, consisting of >40 glycoforms. Furthermore, these N-glycosylation profiles changed substantially over the period of lactation, but consistently across the four individual cows. We identified NeuAc sialylation as the key abundant characteristic of bovine colostrum IgG, significantly decreasing in the first days of lactation, and barely detectable in mature bovine milk IgG. We also report, for the first time to our knowledge, the identification of subtype IgG3 in bovine milk, alongside the better-documented IgG1 and IgG2. The detailed molecular characteristics we describe of the bovine milk IgG, and their dynamic changes during lactation, are important not only for the fundamental understanding of the calf’s immune development, but also for understanding bovine milk and its bioactive components in the context of human nutrition.

Exploration of bovine milk exosomal microRNAs during Streptococcus uberis induced mastitis

Project description:Milk is an indispensable source of infant nutrition in all mammals, made up of complex constituents needed for infant nourishment and immunity. Comparison of miRNA profiles between infected and non-infected/control Holstein cattle could provide important information on the differences in composition of milk at the level of miRNA, if any, and broaden our perspective and understanding of the effect of pathology on cellular compositions and functions. In the present study we therefore analyzed the expression profiles of bovine milk exosomal miRNAs during S. uberis infection and identified 328 known miRNAs and 82 high-confidence miRNA candidates by deep sequencing. The top 10 miRNAs in both control and infected replicates accounted for approximately 80% of total counts, which were predicted to target 605 genes using two computational approaches. In addition, 15 significantly differentially expressed miRNAs were identified between control and infected replicates during S. uberis infection, and a total of 1,852 unique genes were predicted to be targeted by these miRNAs. Ingenuity Canonical Pathways and Diseases and Biological Function analyses using IPA indicated that the identified miRNAs targets mainly enriched in regulating the innate and adaptive immune responses in newborns, as well as infant growth and development. The characterization of these miRNAs could contribute to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in lactation physiology and milk imparted immune function in the dairy cattle.

Expression profiles of microRNA in bovine raw milk exosome and supernatant without exosome [mRNA array]

Project description:We have reported that microRNAs are present in human, bovine, and rat milk whey. Milk whey miRNAs were resistant to acidic condition and to RNase. Thus, milk miRNAs were thought to be present packaged into membrane vesicles like exosome. However, body fluid miRNAs have been reported that there are in different forms. To clarify which miRNAs species are exist in exosome and which species are exist in another form, we used bovine raw milk and purified total RNA from exosome fraction and ultracentrifugated supernatant fraction, and analyzed by miRNA microarray.

Mammary transcriptome analysis of lactating dairy cows

Project description:Growth hormone (GH) has a well established galactopoietic effect on ruminant lactation, however the molecular mechanisms that mediate these effects are not fully understood. This study aimed to define the effects of GH on the production of milk protein by the bovine mammary gland and to establish the potential molecular mechanisms mediating these effects. Elevated levels of GH increased milk yield with corresponding increases in protein, fat and lactose yield, while milk composition remained unaffected by treatment. Increased yield (but not concentration) of all the individual milk proteins was not accompanied by changes in the levels of the milk protein transcripts, with the exception of S2-casein, suggesting post-transcriptional regulation of the milk protein genes is a main factor in the GH-mediated effects on bovine lactation. There were significant transcriptional changes in a wide range of pathways including cell signaling, cell death, cell growth and proliferation, cell cycle regulation and metabolism, consistent with the broad effects of GH. Differential expression of genes involved in the PI3K, ERK/MAPK, insulin receptor, JAK/STAT and IGF-1 signaling pathways were also evident in response to GH treatment supporting potential cross-talk between the GH and insulin signaling pathways in the bovine mammary gland. Transcript levels of the SHC1 gene were elevated in GH-treated cows. SHC1 activates many pathways including those associated with translational regulation and gene transcription and has been implicated in mediating cross-talk between the insulin and GH signaling pathways, providing some insights into the potential pathways mediating the effects of GH on milk protein synthesis in the bovine mammary gland.

Transcriptome Analysis of a Bovine Mammary Epithelial Cell Model with Different Milk Fat Synthesis Capacity

Project description:Synthesis of milk fat is a complex biochemical process regulated by a series of molecular events. To determine gene expression changes during milk fat synthesis in bovine mammary epithelial cells, we established a cell model with a high capacity for milk fat synthesis using stimulation with acetate and β-hydroxybutyrate. RNA sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the high-milk-fat and control cells. A total of 625 DEGs (358 upregulated, 267 downregulated) were identified. Among the highly expressed genes, there was enrichment for terms associated with fatty acid synthesis, activation, and triacylglycerol synthesis, consistent with active milk fat synthesis. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis suggested that DEGs were most enriched in the “lipid metabolism” subcategory of the “metabolism” category, and in the “signal transduction” subcategory of the “environmental information processing” category. Although an in vitro cell model cannot completely simulate in vivo lactation, it eliminates interference from other cell types and from the synthesis of other milk components during transcriptome profile analysis. This work provides a profile of gene expression changes that occur during milk fat synthesis in bovine mammary epithelial cells, which furthers our understanding of the molecular regulation of lipid metabolism.
