Project description:Geese have a high tolerance of massive energy intake and exhibit little pathological development. We assessed phenotypes and transcriptomes of Tianfu geese to investigate the dynamic expression network behind goose adipogenesis. Goose liver exhibited higher fat accumulation than adipose tissues during fattening. We identified differentially expressed genes that function in several important lipid metabolism pathways, immune response, regulation of cancer, and differentially expressed long noncoding RNAs that might be involved in regulation of these pathways. We found that genes like BGE1 and SCD, which have key roles in glycolysis and synthesis of fatty acids, had higher fold change in liver than in adipose tissue. we suppose that the evolutionary split from mammals in adipogenesis is a result of adaptive evolution to long-distance migration.

Project description:BackgroundDysregulation of adipogenesis causes metabolic diseases, like obesity and fatty liver. Migratory birds such as geese have a high tolerance of massive energy intake and exhibit little pathological development. Domesticated goose breeds, derivatives of the wild greyleg goose (Anser anser) or swan goose (Anser cygnoides), have high tolerance of energy intake resembling their ancestor species. Thus, goose is potentially a model species to study mechanisms associated with adipogenesis.ResultsPhenotypically, goose liver exhibited higher fat accumulation than adipose tissues during fattening (liver increased by 3.35 fold than 1.65 fold in adipose), showing a priority of fat accumulation in liver. We found the number of differentially expressed genes in liver (13.97%) was nearly twice the number of that in adipose (6.60%). These differentially expressed genes in liver function in several important lipid metabolism pathways, immune response, regulation of cancer, while in adipose, terms closely related to protein binding, gluconeogenesis were enriched. Typically, genes like MDH2 and SCD, which have key roles in glycolysis and fatty acids metabolism, had higher fold change in liver than in adipose tissues. Three hundred two differentially expressed long noncoding RNAs involved in regulation of metabolism in liver were also identified. For example, lncRNA XLOC_292762, which was 5.7 kb downstream of FERMT2, a gene involved phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate binding, was significantly down-regulated after the high-intake feeding period. Further investigation of documented obesity-related orthologous genes in goose suggested that understanding the evolutionary split from mammals in adipogenesis will make goose fatty liver a better resource for future research.ConclusionsOur research reveals that goose uses liver as the major tissue to regulate a distinct lipid synthesis and degradation flux and the dynamic expression network analyses showed numerous layers of positive responses to both massive energy intake and possible pathological development. Our results offer insights into goose adipogenesis and provide a new perspective for research in human metabolic dysregulation.

Project description:The experiment was conducted at the Kołuda Wielka Experimental Station of the National Research Institute of Animal Production (Kołuda Wielka, Poland). All birds were kept in semi-intensive rearing system according to the oat-fattening technology. At 15.5 weeks of age, 8 geese were selected and divided into two groups (n=4) depending on final body weight. Group I (light) were geese with the flock average weight of 7,10 kg, group II (heavy) consisted of geese with above-average growth potential, which achieved a body weight of 7,95 kg during the same time. Up to 20 min after slaughter, the whole pituitary and hypothalamus were collected and stabilized in RNAlater solution to RNA isolation purpose.

Project description:Lion-head goose is the only large goose species in China, and it was one of the largest goose species in the world. Our previous study firstly reported a chromosome-level genome assembly of Lion-head goose (Anser cygnoides), a native breed in South China, through the combination of PacBio, Bionano, and Hi-C technologies. The fat content of foie gras is augmented during its preparation due to the special feeding regimen. Lion-head geese have a strong tolerance of massive energy intake and show a priority of fat accumulation in liver tissue. In this study, we studied for the first time the important differential genes that regulate fatty liver in Lion-head goose. After high-intake feeding, the fatty livers of Lion-head geese were distinctly characterized. The revelation of gene regulation is an important basis for the study of liver development and molecular characteristics for the Lion-head goose. To analyze the excellent fatty liver performance of Lion-head goose at the molecular level, we performed whole transcriptome analysis by high-throughput RNA sequencing to analyze the key regulatory genes that determine the fatty livers in high-intake feeding group compared with the normal livers in normally-fed Lion-head geese. We identified 716 differentially expressed mRNAs, 145 differentially expressed circRNAs, and 39 differentially expressed lncRNAs in the fatty livers in high-intake feeding group compared with the normal livers in normally-fed Lion-head geese, including upregulated and downregulated genes, respectively. GO enrichment analysis showed that these genes were significantly enriched in molecular function, involved in extracellular regions, DNA-binding transcription factor activity, extracellular matrix, heme binding and other life activities. We chose differentially expressed genes involved in either upregulation or downregulation, and we additionally confirmed the accuracy of sequencing at the RNA level. In summary, our research suggested that these differentially expressed genes may play important roles in fatty liver development in Lion-head goose. However, the functions and mechanisms of these significantly differentially expressed genes should be investigated in future studies.

Project description:Intramuscular fat (IMF) serves as a crucial economic indicator of meat quality. To investigate the heterogeneity of IMF composition and its regulatory mechanisms in Xingguo (XG) geese with varying IMF levels, lipidomics and transcriptomics were utilized. The analysis of lipid profiles revealed that the predominant lipids in the IMF of XG geese were glycerophospholipids (GPs), followed by glycerides (GLs). Interestingly, the low-IMF group exhibited an increase in GPs, specifically phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs) and phosphatidylcholines (PCs), while the high-IMF group showed elevated levels of triacylglycerols (TAGs). Transcriptomic analysis indicated that genes related to extracellular matrices (ECM)-receptor interactions, focal adhesion, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and forkhead transcription factors O (FoxO) signaling pathways were upregulated in the low-IMF group. In contrast, genes involved in metabolic processes were more pronounced in the high-IMF group. A comprehensive analysis combining lipidomics and transcriptomics identified CD36, fatty acid-binding protein 5 (FABP5), troponin I2 (TNNI2), and coronin-6 isoform X1 (CORO6) as essential regulators influencing IMF accumulation in XG geese. This research emphasizes the significant lipids, genes, and signaling pathways that play roles in IMF accumulation, providing a theoretical basis for enhancing the meat quality of XG geese.

Project description:In recent years, the increasing incidence of goose gout has caused serious economic losses. In this study, we explored the effects of lactulose on intestinal health and uric acid metabolism in geese, and used RNA-seq analysis to reveal its potential mechanism. 180 one-day-old Yangzhou geese were divided into three groups: control group (CG, basal diet), high protein model group (MG, containing 21 % crude protein diet), lactulose group (LS, containing 21 % crude protein diet + 0.3 % lactulose). Results showed that compared with the CG group and MG group, the LS group had significantly lower serum uric acid levels and intact ileal mucosal structure. Through bioinformatics analysis of transcriptome (GO and KEGG enrichment analysis, GSEA and trend analysis), we found key pathways and genes closely related to intestinal health and uric acid metabolism. These key findings include: zinc ion import across plasma membrane biological process, ABC Transporters pathway, Wnt signaling pathway, as well as ABCG2, a key gene for uric acid transport, and genes closely related to intestinal structural integrity (KLF2, LRP6, TJP1, TJP3, PROM1). The results showed that lactulose could effectively reduce the serum uric acid level of geese by improving intestinal morphology.
