Project description:Optimization of broiler chicken breast muscle protein accretion is key for the efficient production of poultry meat, whose demand is steadily increasing. In a context where antimicrobial growth promoters use is being restricted, it is important to find alternatives as well as to characterize the effect of immunological stress on broiler chicken growth. Despite of its importance, research on broiler chicken muscle protein dynamics has been mostly limited to the study of mixed protein turnover. The present study aims to characterize the effect of a bacterial challenge and the feed supplementation of a citrus and a cucumber extract on broiler chicken individual breast muscle proteins fractional synthesis rates (FSR) using a recently developed dynamic proteomics pipeline. 21 day-old broiler chickens were administered a single 2H2O dose before being culled at different timepoints. A total of 60 breast muscle protein extracts from five experimental groups (Unchallenged, Challenged, Control Diet, Diet 1 and Diet 2) were analyzed using a DDA proteomics approach. Proteomics data was filtered in order to reliably calculate multiple proteins FSR making use of a newly developed bioinformatics pipeline. Broiler breast muscle proteins FSR uniformly decreased following a bacterial challenge, this change was judged significant for 15 individual proteins, the two major functional clusters identified as well as for mixed breast muscle protein. Citrus or cucumber extract feed supplementation did not show any effect on the breast muscle protein FSR of immunologically challenged broilers. The present study has identified potential predictive markers of breast muscle growth and provided new information on broiler chicken breast muscle protein turnover which could be essential for improving the efficiency of broiler chicken meat production.

Project description:The expression of genes were analysed in 7th day of embryonic stage between Aseel, an indigenous slow-growing chicken, and control broiler, a fast-growing broiler chicken line. The whole embryo was collected in TRIZOL and total RNA was isolated. The expression profile of gene was determined in 64k Agilent chicken microarray chip. The Cy3 dye was used for detection. The fold change of expression was analysed in Aseel as compared to broiler chicken line.

Project description:Broiler Chicken Cecum Raw sequence reads
Project description:A more in-depth exploration of gut functional aspects may be interesting in order to provide hints for action (e.g. dietary strategies) to favor gut balance maintenance (Sinha et al., 2017), given the important role of the intestine in development of possible metabolic diseases. A careful survey on the differential gene expression may help to scouting new interesting functions and identify potential markers for testing various experimental factors. The transcriptomes of the jejunum and cecum mucosae of 19 broiler chickens were compared. At slaughter age (day 42), on 38 birds, selected with a homogeneous body weight, jejunum and cecum mucosae were collected by gently scraping after tissues rinsing in PSB to remove residues of digesta, and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and then stored at -80°C. From both tissues, total RNA was extracted using GeneJET RNA Purification Kit (Thermo Scientific)
