RNA-seq of liver from pigs divergent in feed efficiency highlights shifts in macronutrients metabolism, hepatic growth and immune response
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Liver is a metabolically complex organ that influences nutrient partitioning and potentially modulates the efficiency of converting energy acquired from macronutrients ingestion into a muscle and/or adipose tissue (referred to as feed efficiency, FE). The objective of this study was to sequence the hepatic tissue transcriptome of pigs divergent for FE and identify relevant biological processes that underpin the differences in liver phenotypes and FE.
