Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Day 30 embryos (D30E) was performed. First parity sows were submitted to an ovulation-induction protocol, intermittent suckling (IS), during lactation. IS consisted of 8 h/d separation from their litters during the last 7d of a 28d lactation. During separation, sows received boar exposure. There were 3 treatments: control (C28, n=19), where piglets were weaned at D28 of lactation and were bred after weaning and two IS treatments: sows were either bred at their first induced estrus during lactation (IS21FE, n=18), or were “skipped” and bred at their second estrus (IS21SE, n= 17) which occurred after final weaning at D28. Sows were slaughtered and embryos were collected on D30 of gestation for DNA PCR sexing. Later, D30E from the same sex with similar weight were pooled for further microarray investigation. Stimulating lactational oestrus then two mating strategies were applied to primiparous sows. For the microarray experiment, three biological replicates (three sows) were chosen from each treatment group comparing control (C28) to either IS21FE or IS21SE. A pool of females and males D30E were chosen and pooled separately for each comparison.

Project description:A summary of the work associated to these microarrays is the following: Diet plays a role in the development of the immune system, and polyunsaturated fatty acids can modulate the expression of a variety of genes. Human milk contains conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a fatty acid that seems to contribute to immune development. Indeed, recent studies carried out in our group in suckling animals have shown that the immune function is enhanced after feeding 80:20 isomer mix of c9,t11 and t10,c12 CLA, respectively. However, little work has been done on the effects of CLA on gene expression, and even less regarding immune system development in early life. With all these concepts in mind, we determined the expression profile of Mesentheric Lymph Nodes (MLN) from animals supplemented with CLA during gestation and suckling through dam’s milk (Group A) or by oral gavage (Group B), supplemented just during suckling (Group C) and control animals (Group D) with the aid of the specific GeneChip ® Rat Genome 230 2.0 (Affymettrix). Bioinformatic analyses were performed using the GeneSpring GX software package v10.0.2 and lead to the identification of 123 genes differentially expressed in all three dietary approaches. Generation of a Biological Association Network (BAN) evidenced several genes, such as connective tissue growth factor (Ctgf), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (Timp1), galanin (Gal), synaptotagmin 1 (Syt1), growth factor receptor bound protein 2 (Grb2) actin gamma 2 (Actg2) and smooth muscle alpha actin (Acta2), as highly interconnected nodes of the resulting network. Gene underexpression was confirmed by Real-Time RT-PCR. We conclude that Ctgf, Timp1, Gal and Syt1, among others, are genes modulated by CLA supplementation that may have a role on lymphoproliferation and mucosal immune responses in early life. The aim of our study was to evaluate, by using whole genome microarrays, the effects of dietary supplementation with an 80:20 isomer mix of c9,t11 and t10,c12 CLA, respectively, on Mesentheric Lymph Nodes gene expression, during gestation and/or suckling. Three experimental approaches were conducted to assess the effects of CLA supplementation on I) pups from dams fed with 1% CLA diet during the two weeks of gestation and throughout the suckling period (Group A). These pups received CLA through the dam’s milk during suckling (Total Period of CLA Supplementation (TPS) 5 wk); II) pups from dams fed with 1% CLA diet during gestation and standard diet during suckling. These pups were CLA-supplemented daily during suckling by oral gavage (TPS 5 wk) (Group B); III) pups from dams fed standard diet during gestation and suckling and receiving CLA by daily oral gavage throughout the suckling period (TPS 3 wk) (Group C). Group D, pups from dams fed standard diet throughout the study, constituted the reference diet group (TPS 0 wk). Triplicate samples were hybridized for each experimental condition (12 samples in total). The samples provided were analyzed using the specific software GeneSpring GX.

Project description:[Background] DNA methylation plays a crucial role in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, gene expression, and embryonic development. However, the comprehensive changes in genome-wide DNA methylation during early pregnancy in sows remain unknown. This study aimed to investigate the DNA methylation profiles and to construct an early gene pool of sows during early gestation.[Results] In this investigation, we utilized blood samples from 20 healthy sows and applied Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RBSS) technology to systematically examine alterations in DNA methylation in sow blood during early pregnancy. Screening and validating the Methylation differential genes by using bisulfite sequencing PCR (BSP) and Quantitative Real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). Our findings indicated a significant increase in methylation levels on day 28 of pregnancy (pre28) compared to non-pregnancy (ctrl) across various gene elements, including CGI, promoter, and genebody. A total of 64,908 differentially methylated sites (DMCs) and 12,119 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified, predominantly exhibiting methylation upregulation. Randomly selected five differentially methylated genes—VBP1, UPRT (upregulated methylation), RPL10, RAB33A, and CD93 (downregulated methylation)—were validated. Between the pregnant (pre28) and non-pregnant (ctrl) groups the BSP results showed highly significant methylation differences (P<0.01) in VBP1, UPRT, RPL10, and RAB33A. DMC gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed significant enrichment in nuclear receptor activity, negative regulation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity during apoptosis, heme binding, and hormonal activity. DMRs GO analysis highlighted significant enrichment in 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity, regulation of transforming growth factor β receptor signaling pathway, mitochondrial outer membrane and myotubular cell development, and cellular calcium homeostasis. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis demonstrated significant enrichment in the MAPK signaling pathway and the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.[Conclusion] During sow early gestation, DNA methylation is significant changes and is mainly upregulated. The observed upregulation of DNA methylation during early gestation in sows may regulate the MAPK and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways, potentially influencing embryonic development. Methylated differential genes VBP1 and RPL10 can be used as potential markers for early sow pregnancy diagnosis. These findings offer novel insights into the epigenetic changes occurring in sows during early gestation.

Project description:We investigated gene regulatory relationships in the neonatal liver to identify potential mechanisms by which maternal vitamin and mineral supplementation during gestation influences developmental programming in heifer calves. Accordingly, the hepatic transcriptome was measured using RNA-Seq in 12 calves collected 30 h after calving from dams fed a diet initiated 60 days pre-breeding and con-tinuing throughout gestation (VTM or CON, n = 6/group). We identified 630 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between treatment groups. We also identified 58 transcription factors (TFs) and 435 differentially connected genes (p < 0.05), suggesting maternal diet induced a regulatory rewiring of TFs and histone deacetylating genes. Further research should explore whether these transcriptional changes are linked to epigenetic modifications established at birth, persist throughout postnatal development, and potentially contribute to multigenerational inheritance.
