Project description:Sperm storage tubules (SSTs) in the uterovaginal junction (UVJ) of the oviduct are major sites of sperm storage after artificial insemination or mating. Female birds may regulate sperm motility in the UVJ. Heat stress can decrease the reproductive ability of broiler breeder hens. However, its effects on UVJ remain unclear. Changes in gene expression aid in understanding heat stress-affected molecular mechanisms. Herein, we wanted to conduct a comparative transcriptomic analysis to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the UVJ of breeder hens under thermoneutral (23°C) and heat stress (36°C for 6 h) conditions.

Project description:Avian uterine fluid (UF) and uterovaginal sperm storage tubules (SST) are key components for acceptance of sperm in SST, sperm functions maintenance during weeks, sperm release out of SST, and their ascending through the uterus. The study of UF and SST is essential to better understand sperm storage process. The objectives were to identify proteins modulated in the hen’s oviduct by sperm, and to highlight their role during sperm storage. Two genetic lines of hens exhibiting long (F+) or short (F-) sperm storage ability were used. GeLC-MS/MS strategy was used to establish a quantitative inventory of proteins regulated after insemination in both lines. Consequently the identification of high (ANXA4/ANXA5/OCX32) and low (HSPA8/PIGR) fertility markers was investigated in uterovaginal junction by immunohistochemistry. Our results demonstrated that sperm induced a significant and rapid change in the UF proteomic content, as well as in the SST epithelium. In F+ hens, the ANXA4 protein mobilization in apical part of SST cells after insemination was associated to increased levels of some proteoglycans and binding proteins, as well as antimicrobial eggshell matrix protein (OCX32) in the UF. We also observed increased levels of lipid transporters involved in egg formation (VTG1-2, APOA1-4-H). In F- hens, insemination induced increased levels of PIGR in both UF and SST, of ANXA5 in SST, of UF enzymes exhibiting metallopeptidase activity, and mucins. In conclusion, sperm induced significant changes in the UF proteomic content. This study also provides evidence that the SST immune system is major to regulate sperm storage.

Project description:Turkey sperm lose viability within 8-18 h when stored as liquid semen using current methods and extenders. In contrast, turkey hens maintain viable, fertile sperm in their sperm storage tubules (SST) for 45 or more days following a single insemination. Our long-term objectives are to identify and characterize differentially expressed genes that may underlie this prolonged sperm storage and then use this information to develop improved methods for storing liquid turkey semen. We employed serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) to compare gene expression patterns in turkey SST recovered from hens after artificial insemination (AI) with extended semen (sperm AI) or extender alone (control AI). We constructed two separate SAGE libraries with SST RNA obtained from sperm and control AI hens. We used these libraries to generate 95,325 ten-base pair SAGE tags. These 95,325 tags represented 27,430 unique genes. The sperm and control AI libraries contained 47,663 and 47,662 tags representing 18,030 and 19,101 putative unique transcripts, respectively. Approximately 1% of these putative unique genes were differentially expressed (P<0.05) between treatments. Tentative annotations were ascribed to the SAGE tag nucleotide sequences by comparing them against publicly available SAGE tag and cDNA sequence databases. Based on its SAGE tag nucleotide sequence, we cloned a partial turkey avidin cDNA and confirmed its up-regulation in the sperm AI SST. The bioinformatics and experimental procedures employed to clone turkey avidin and confirm its differential expression represent a useful paradigm for analyzing SAGE tag data from relatively uncharacterized model systems.

Project description:The liver plays a critical role in avian reproduction as it is the primary site of de novo lipogenesis and yolk precursor synthesis. Broiler breeder hens, the parents of commercial broiler chickens, often experience poor reproductive efficiency primarily due to declining egg production beginning around 45 weeks of age. Metformin, an antidiabetic drug, exerts its primary effects in the liver by increasing insulin sensitivity and reducing hepatic glucose production in humans. This study aimed to characterize the liver transcriptomic profile of broiler breeder hens supplemented with metformin in the diet at 0 or 75 mg/kg body weight for 40 weeks (25-65 weeks of age; n=45 hens/treatment). Liver tissue was collected from a subset of hens (n=12 hens/treatment group) at 65 weeks of age, RNA was extracted and sequenced using next-generation sequencing. Differential gene abundance analysis revealed that metformin treatment led to the most significant changes in gene expression, with 552 genes differentially expressed compared to the control group. Further transcriptomic analysis highlighted increased expression of genes related to estrogen-stimulated yolk precursor synthesis, insulin-stimulated de novo lipogenesis, and AMPK-mediated glucose homeostasis. qPCR analysis revealed increased expression of ESR1, APOB, APOV1, VTG2, ADIPOQ, ADIPOR2 and ACACA mRNA and decreased expression of PCK1 mRNA validating the transcriptomic data. Collectively, the present study suggests that metformin supplementation supports prolonged egg production in aging broiler breeder hens by sustaining yolk precursor and fatty acid synthesis that are typically diminished in aging broiler breeder hens.

Project description:Heat stress (HS) can damage the integrity of the intestinal mucosal barrier, leading to decreased poultry productivity. This study aimed to identify candidate genes related to acute HS in breeder hens and provide insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying acute HS in gut health. Fifty 28-week-old breeder hens were divided into two groups (25 hens each) raised under thermoneutral zone (23 °C) and acute HS (36 °C, 6 hours) conditions. The heart rate and cloacal temperature were measured in all hens, and jejunal mucosa tissues were randomly collected from 12 hens per treatment for RNA-sequencing analysis. The results indicated a significant increase in the heart rate and cloacal temperature in hens exposed to acute HS (P < 0.05). Transcriptome analysis identified 138 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in heat-stressed breeder hens, including 75 upregulated DEGs containing heat shock protein (HSP), energy homeostasis metabolism-related gene (PDK4), and fat metabolism-related genes (PPARA and CD36), and 63 downregulated DEGs containing the bile acid transporter gene (SLC10A2). Gene ontology analysis revealed significant enrichment in biological processes related to heat response and cholesterol biosynthesis. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis highlighted several significant pathways, including steroid biosynthesis, steroid hormone biosynthesis, protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway, and the adipocytokine signaling pathway. Protein-protein interaction network analysis involving two large networks: one containing several upregulated HSPs and genes related to energy homeostasis and fat metabolism (PDK4, PPARA, and CD36) and glucose transporter (SLC2A5), and the other containing downregulated DEGs related to cholesterol biosynthesis. Overall, acute HS might affect energy metabolism, fat metabolism, and glucose transport in the jejunal mucosa of breeder hens. Heat-stressed hens could restore the nutritional function of the jejunal mucosa by increasing the expression of HSPs. These findings provide a theoretical framework for further investigation into the molecular regulatory mechanisms responsible for HS-induced changes in the gut health of poultry.
