Project description:Sixty crossbred piglets (Duroc*Landrace*Yorkshire) weaned at the age of 21 days were maintained for one week and had free access to feed and water. During this week, all the piglets were scored for the severity of diarrhea. Diarrhea index was scored as follows: 1= hard feces; 2= no scours, feces of normal consistency; 3= mild scours, soft, partially formed feces; 4= moderate scours, loose, semi-liquid feces; 5= watery feces; as previously did Those piglets with a score of 4 or 5 for three continuous days were designated as diarrhea piglets, while those piglets with a score of 1 or 2 for three continuous days were designated as normal piglets..

Project description:Early-weaning-induced stress causes diarrhea, thereby reduces growth performance of piglets. Gut bacterial dysbiosis emerges as a leading cause of post-weaning diarrhea. The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of capsulized fecal microbiota transportation (FMT) on gut bacterial community, immune response and gut barrier function of weaned piglets. Thirty-two were randomly divided into two groups fed with basal diet for 21 days. Recipient group was inoculated orally with capsulized fecal microbiota of health Tibetan pig daily morning during whole period of trial, while control group was given orally empty capsule. The results showed that the F/G ratio, diarrhea ratio, diarrhea index, and histological damage score of recipient piglets were significantly decreased. FMT treatment also significantly increased the colon length of piglets. Furthermore, the relative abundances of Firmicutes, Euryarchaeota, Tenericutes, Lactobacillus, Methanobrevibacter and Sarcina in colon of recipient piglets were increased, and the relative abundances of Campylobacter, Proteobacteria, and Melainabacteria were significantly decreased compared with control group.

Project description:Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has reemerged as the main pathogen of piglets due to its high mutation feature. Monolaurin (ML) is a natural compound with a wide range of antibacterial and antiviral activities. However, the role of ML in PEDV infection is still unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ML on the growth performance, intestinal function, virus replication and cytokine response in piglets infected with PEDV, and to reveal the mechanism through proteomics analysis. Piglets were orally administrated with ML at a dose of 100 mg/kg·BW for 7 days before PEDV infection. Results showed that although there was no significant effect on the growth performance of piglets, ML administration alleviated the diarrhea caused by PEDV infection. ML administration promoted the recovery of intestinal villi, thereby improving intestinal function. Meanwhile, PEDV replication was significantly inhibited, and PEDV-induced expression of IL-6 and IL-8 were decreased with ML administration. Proteomics analyses showed that 38 proteins were differentially expressed between PEDV and ML+PEDV groups, and were significantly enriched in the interferon-related pathways. This suggests ML could promote the restoration of homeostasis by regulating the interferon pathway. Overall, the present study demonstrated ML could confer a protective effect against PEDV infection in piglets, and may be developed as a drug or feed additive to prevent and control PEDV disease.

Project description:Purpose: RNA-Seq has become a powerful tool for investigating transcriptional profiles in gene expression analysis, which would help to reveal the molecular mechanism of Clostridium perfringens type C infecting the piglets. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome profiles of the spleen of piglets caused by Clostridium perfringens type Cens type C. Methods: 30 normal 7-day-old piglets (Y x L), without infecting Clostridium perfringens type C, Escherichia coli and Salmonella, were selected as experimental subjects. 25 piglets were randomly selected as the experimental group, which were disposed once a day for 5 days. Each piglet was dosed with 1 ml of bouillon culture-medium inoculated Clostridium perfringens type C at 37℃ for 16h, which approximate to 1 x109 CFU per ml. Then, 5 piglets were randomly selected as the control group (SC), which were taken the equal volume medium for 5 days.Based on total diarrhea scores, 25 piglets were ranked from high to low. The top and last five piglet were considered as sensitive group (SS) and resistant group (SR), respectively. Finally, spleen were collected and sequenced for lncRNA and mRNA. Results: RNA libraries constructed from spleen of piglets caused by Clostridium perfringens type C were sequenced. A total of 1,450,292,484 clean reads were generated. Among them, 2056 novel lncRNA transcripts corresponding to 1561 lncRNA genes were identified, including 1811 intergenic lncRNAs and 245 anti-sense lncRNAs. The identified spleen lncRNAs shared some characteristics, such as fewer exons and shorter length, with the lncRNAs in other animal. Notably, in pairwise comparisons between the libraries of spleen tissue at the different group, a total of 247 lncRNA and 2170 mRNA were differentially expressed (P < 0.05). Function analyses indicated that these differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs play roles in defensing Clostridium perfringens type C, which were enriched in immune-related biological processes, such as the antigen processing and presentation, TNF signaling pathway, NF-kappa B signaling pathway, B cell receptor signaling pathway and MAPK signaling pathway. Conclusions: This study provides the information of spleen-related lncRNAs in swine diarrhea with Clostridium perfringens type C. We also analyzed all lncRNA’s genomic feature and expression. Bioinformatic analysis indicates that some lncRNAs participated in important biological processes associated with defeasing Clostridium perfringens type C, such as antigen processing and presentation, the MHC protein complex and regulation of autophagy.

Project description:Somatic cell nuclear transfer has brought considerable chances to breed excellent breeds and protect endanger animals, while also produced numerous fail embryos and abnormal individuals due to inefficient epigenetic modification at the same time. To understand some mechanisms of abnormal piglets with phenotypes such as macroglossia, standing and walking disabilities in our study and find some differences between abnormal piglets and conventionally bred normal piglets, DNA methylation profile and genome-wide gene expression were conducted in two groups, using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation binding highthroughput sequencing (MeDIP-Seq) and RNA sequencing(RNA-Seq). We generated and provided a genome-wide DNA methylation and gene expression profile for abnormal cloned and conventionally bred piglets. We detected a total of 1493 genes differentially expressed in two groups and 382 of these genes also differentially methylated in two groups. Analysis of relationship between DNA methylation and gene expression revealed that DNA methylation levels had significantly negative and monotonic correlation with gene expression levels in particular regions of genes while no obvious monotonic correlation in other regions. Besides, we found some interesting genes and pathways such as MYH7 and mTOR signalling pathway that may played essential role in muscle growth and development. Briefly, these results provide reliable data for future epigenetic studies and may help to uncover the mechanism of failure clones via SCNT. We dissected the leg muscle from the cloned piglets and the conventionally bred piglets, and analyzed the difference of MeDIP-seq and RNA-seq between the two groups. As for data of abnormal cloned piglets, we downloaded it from GEO under Super-Series accession No. GSE51477, including SubSeries accession No.GSE51282 for RNA-seq data (No. GSM1241829 for abnormal cloned group) and SubSeries accession No. GSE51476 for MeDIP-seq data (No. GSM1246252 for abnormal cloned group).

Project description:Diarrheal disease is a common health problem with complex causality. Although diarrhea is accompanied by disturbances in microbial diversity, how gut microbes are involved in the occurrence of diarrhea remains largely unknown. Here, using a pig model of post-weaning stress-induced diarrhea, we aim to elucidate and enrich the mechanistic basis of diarrhea. We found significant alterations in fecal microbiome, their metabolites, and microRNAs levels in piglets with diarrhea. Specifically, loss of ssc-miRNA-425-5p and ssc-miRNA-423-3p, which inhibit the gene expression of fumarate reductase (<i>frd</i>) in <i>Prevotella</i> genus, caused succinate accumulation in piglets, which resulted in diarrhea. Single-cell RNA sequencing indicated impaired epithelial function and increased immune response in the colon of piglet with diarrhea. Notably, the accumulated succinate increased colonic fluid secretion by regulating transepithelial Cl-secretion in the epithelial cells. Meanwhile, succinate promoted colonic inflammatory responses by activating MyD88-dependent TLR4 signaling in the macrophages. Overall, our findings expand the mechanistic basis of diarrhea and suggest that colonic accumulation of microbiota-produced succinate caused by loss of miRNAs leads to diarrhea in weanling piglets.
