Integrated microbiome-metabolome-genome axis data of Laiwu and Lulai pigs

ABSTRACT: Excessive fat deposition can trigger metabolic diseases, and it is crucial to identify factors that can break the link between fat deposition and metabolic diseases. Healthy obese Laiwu pigs (LW) are high in fat content but resistant to metabolic diseases. In this study, we compared the fecal microbiome, fecal and blood metabolome, and genome of LW and Lulai pigs (LU) to identify factors that can block the link between fat deposition and metabolic diseases. Our results show significant differences in Spirochetes and Treponema, which are involved in carbohydrate metabolism, between LW and LU. The fecal and blood metabolome composition was similar, and some anti-metabolic disease components of blood metabolites were different between the two breeds of pigs. The predicted differential RNA is mainly enriched in lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism, which is consistent with the functions of differential microbiota and metabolites. The down-regulated gene RGP1 is strongly negatively correlated with Treponema. Our omics data would provide valuable resources for further scientific research on healthy obesity in both human and porcine.

Project description:Background: Marketing products with added-value characteristics is a current trend in livestock production systems. Regarding meat, selection for intramuscular fat and muscular fatty acid composition is a way to improve the palatability and juiciness of meat while assuring a healthy fat content. This represents selecting animal with a different muscular metabolic profile with respect to the extended selection of lean animals. Results: The present study has analysed the muscular gene expression profiles of 68 commercial Duroc pigs belonging to two groups with extreme phenotypes for traits strongly related with lipid deposition and composition. This has allowed us to compare the physiological and metabolic implications of selecting for each of these extreme groups. Rather than upregulation of a single pathway, the main differences lied on the transcriptional levels of genes related with lipogenesis and lipolysis, revealing the existence of a cycle where triacylglycerols are continuously synthesized and degraded. Most strikingly, several genes which enhanced fatty acid Î²-oxidation and favoured insulin signalling and glucose uptake were upregulated in the fattest animals, indicating that the events leading to peripheral insulin resistance in humans with increased levels of intramuscular fat and obesity do not take place in these pigs. Moreover, neither was detected the well-characterised low-grade inflammatory state observed in overweighed humans. Conclusion: As a whole, our data suggest that selection for increasing intramuscular fat content in pigs would lead to a shift but not a disruption of the metabolic homeostasis of muscle cells. Future studies on the post-translational changes affecting protein activity or expression as well as information about protein location within the cell would be needed to fully understand how lipid deposition affects muscle physiology in pigs. 68 gluteus medius samples form 68 animals belonging to two groups of 34 animals each: HIGH group had higher carcass, plasma and muscle fat content; LOW group had lower carcass, plasma and muscle fat content
