Muscle and Serum Metabolomics for Different Chicken Breeds under Commercial Conditions by GC-MS.

ABSTRACT: Globally, village chicken is popular and is known as a premium meat with a higher price. Food fraud can occur by selling other chicken breeds at a premium price in local markets. This study aimed to distinguish local village chicken from other chicken breeds available in the market, namely, colored broiler (Hubbard), broiler (Cobb), and spent laying hen (Dekalb) in pectoralis major and serum under commercial conditions using an untargeted metabolomics approach. Both pectoralis major and serum were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The principal component analysis (PCA) results distinguished four different chicken breeds into three main groups for pectoralis major and serum. A total of 30 and 40 characteristic metabolites were identified for pectoralis major and serum, respectively. The four chicken breeds were characterized by the abundance of metabolites such as amino acids (L-glutamic acid, L-threonine, L-serine, L-leucine), organic acids (L-lactic acid, succinic acid, 3-hydroxybutyric acid), sugars (D-allose, D-glucose), sugar alcohols (myo-inositol), and fatty acids (linoleic acid). Our results suggest that an untargeted metabolomics approach using GC-MS and PCA could discriminate chicken breeds for pectoralis major and serum under commercial conditions. In this study, village chicken could only be distinguished from colored broiler (Hubbard) by serum samples.

<sup>1</sup>H nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics study of serum and pectoralis major for different commercial chicken breeds.

Project description:This study aimed to characterize the metabolic composition of four types of commercially available chicken breeds [village chicken, colored broiler (Hubbard), broiler (Cobb), and spent layers (Dekalb)] by 1H NMR coupling and discriminate them using multivariate analysis. Five chickens were collected for each chicken breed based on the marketing age from the respective commercial farms. The orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) results showed an obvious separation of local village chickens from the other breeds based on the metabolites present in their serum and meat (pectoralis major). The cumulative values of Q 2, R 2 X, and R 2 Y of the OPLS-DA model for chicken serum were 0.722, 0.877, and 0.841. For the pectoralis major muscle, the cumulative values of Q 2, R 2 X, and R 2 Y of the OPLS-DA model were reported as 0.684, 0.781, and 0.786, respectively. The quality of both OPLS-DA models was accepted by the cumulative values of Q 2 ≥ 0.5 and R 2 ≥ 0.65. The 1H NMR result with multivariate analysis has successfully distinguished local village chicken from the other three commercial chicken breeds based on serum and pectoralis major muscle. Nonetheless, colored broiler (Hubbard) was not distinguished from broiler (Cobb) and spent layers (Dekalb) in serum and pectoralis major, respectively. The OPLS-DA assessment in this study identified 19 and 15 potential metabolites for discriminating different chicken breeds in serum and pectoralis major muscle, respectively. Some of the prominent metabolites identified include amino acids (betaine, glycine, glutamine, guanidoacetate, phenylalanine, and valine), nucleotides (IMP and NAD+), organic acids (lactate, malate, and succinate), peptide (anserine), and sugar alcohol (myo-inositol).

Metabolomics Benefits from Orbitrap GC-MS-Comparison of Low- and High-Resolution GC-MS.

Project description:The development of improved mass spectrometers and supporting computational tools is expected to enable the rapid annotation of whole metabolomes. Essential for the progress is the identification of strengths and weaknesses of novel instrumentation in direct comparison to previous instruments. Orbitrap liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS) technology is now widely in use, while Orbitrap gas chromatography (GC)-MS introduced in 2015 has remained fairly unexplored in its potential for metabolomics research. This study aims to evaluate the additional knowledge gained in a metabolomics experiment when using the high-resolution Orbitrap GC-MS in comparison to a commonly used unit-mass resolution single-quadrupole GC-MS. Samples from an osmotic stress treatment of a non-model organism, the microalga Skeletonema costatum, were investigated using comparative metabolomics with low- and high-resolution methods. Resulting datasets were compared on a statistical level and on the level of individual compound annotation. Both MS approaches resulted in successful classification of stressed vs. non-stressed microalgae but did so using different sets of significantly dysregulated metabolites. High-resolution data only slightly improved conventional library matching but enabled the correct annotation of an unknown. While computational support that utilizes high-resolution GC-MS data is still underdeveloped, clear benefits in terms of sensitivity, metabolic coverage, and support in structure elucidation of the Orbitrap GC-MS technology for metabolomics studies are shown here.

Signatures of selection in the genomes of commercial and non-commercial chicken breeds.

Project description:Identifying genomics regions that are affected by selection is important to understand the domestication and selection history of the domesticated chicken, as well as understanding molecular pathways underlying phenotypic traits and breeding goals. While whole-genome approaches, either high-density SNP chips or massively parallel sequencing, have been successfully applied to identify evidence for selective sweeps in chicken, it has been difficult to distinguish patterns of selection and stochastic and breed specific effects. Here we present a study to identify selective sweeps in a large number of chicken breeds (67 in total) using a high-density (58 K) SNP chip. We analyzed commercial chickens representing all major breeding goals. In addition, we analyzed non-commercial chicken diversity for almost all recognized traditional Dutch breeds and a selection of representative breeds from China. Based on their shared history or breeding goal we in silico grouped the breeds into 14 breed groups. We identified 396 chromosomal regions that show suggestive evidence of selection in at least one breed group with 26 of these regions showing strong evidence of selection. Of these 26 regions, 13 were previously described and 13 yield new candidate genes for performance traits in chicken. Our approach demonstrates the strength of including many different populations with similar, and breed groups with different selection histories to reduce stochastic effects based on single populations.

Commercial chicken breeds exhibit highly divergent patterns of linkage disequilibrium.

Project description:The analysis of linkage disequilibrium (LD) underpins the development of effective genotyping technologies, trait mapping and understanding of biological mechanisms such as those driving recombination and the impact of selection. We apply the Malécot-Morton model of LD to create additive LD maps that describe the high-resolution LD landscape of commercial chickens. We investigated LD in chickens (Gallus gallus) at the highest resolution to date for broiler, white egg and brown egg layer commercial lines. There is minimal concordance between breeds of fine-scale LD patterns (correlation coefficient <0.21), and even between discrete broiler lines. Regions of LD breakdown, which may align with recombination hot spots, are enriched near CpG islands and transcription start sites (P<2.2 × 10-16), consistent with recent evidence described in finches, but concordance in hot spot locations between commercial breeds is only marginally greater than random. As in other birds, functional elements in the chicken genome are associated with recombination but, unlike evidence from other bird species, the LD landscape is not stable in the populations studied. The development of optimal genotyping panels for genome-led selection programmes will depend on careful analysis of the LD structure of each line of interest. Further study is required to fully elucidate the mechanisms underlying highly divergent LD patterns found in commercial chickens.

Widespread introgression in Chinese indigenous chicken breeds from commercial broiler.

Project description:Chinese indigenous chickens (CICs) constitute world-renowned genetic resources due to their excellent traits, including early puberty, good meat quality and strong resistance to disease. Unfortunately, the introduction of a large number of commercial chickens in the past two decades has had an adverse effect on CICs. Using the chicken 60 K single nucleotide polymorphism chip, we assessed the genetic diversity and population structure of 1,187 chickens, representing eight Chinese indigenous chicken breeds, two hybrid chicken breeds, two ancestral chicken breeds, two commercial populations and additional red jungle fowl. By investigating haplotype similarity, we found extensive gene introgression from commercial broiler to almost all CICs. Approximately 15% of the genome, on average, of CICs was introgressed, ranging from 0.64% for Tibetan chicken to 21.52% for Huiyang Bearded chicken. Further analysis revealed signals consistent with positive selection in the introgression loci. For the first time, we systematically mapped and quantified introgression from commercial broiler to CICs at the whole genome level. Our data provided a usable resource for chicken genetic diversity, and our findings indicated a dire need for protecting the genetic resources of CICs.

Comparison of GC-MS and GC×GC-MS in the analysis of human serum samples for biomarker discovery.

Project description:We compared the performance of gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC×GC-MS) for metabolite biomarker discovery. Metabolite extracts from 109 human serum samples were analyzed on both platforms with a pooled serum sample analyzed after every 9 biological samples for the purpose of quality control (QC). The experimental data derived from the pooled QC samples showed that the GC×GC-MS platform detected about three times as many peaks as the GC-MS platform at a signal-to-noise ratio SNR ? 50, and three times the number of metabolites were identified by mass spectrum matching with a spectral similarity score Rsim ? 600. Twenty-three metabolites had statistically significant abundance changes between the patient samples and the control samples in the GC-MS data set while 34 metabolites in the GC×GC-MS data set showed statistically significant differences. Among these two groups of metabolite biomarkers, nine metabolites were detected in both the GC-MS and GC×GC-MS data sets with the same direction and similar magnitude of abundance changes between the control and patient sample groups. Manual verification indicated that the difference in the number of the biomarkers discovered using these two platforms was mainly due to the limited resolution of chromatographic peaks by the GC-MS platform, which can result in severe peak overlap making subsequent spectrum deconvolution for metabolite identification and quantification difficult.

Genome-Wide Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism Data Unveil Admixture of Chinese Indigenous Chicken Breeds with Commercial Breeds.

Project description:The conservation and development of chicken have received considerable attention, but the admixture history of chicken breeds, especially Chinese indigenous breeds, has been poorly demonstrated. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity and population structure of eight chicken breeds (including conserved chicken breeds) from different geographic origin and to identify admixture within these breeds using a 600-K single-nucleotide polymorphism panel for genotyping. Using the genotype of 580,961 single-nucleotide polymorphism markers scored in 1,200 animals, we evaluated the genetic diversity (heterozygosity and proportion of polymorphic markers), linkage disequilibrium decay, population structure (principal component analysis and neighbor-joining tree), genetic differentiation (FST and genetic distance), and migration events (TreeMix and f-statistics) of the eight domesticated chicken breeds. The results of population analytical methods revealed patterns of hybridization that occurred after divergence in Tibetan chicken. We argue that chicken migration and admixture, followed by trade, have been important forces in shaping the genomic variation in modern Chinese chicken. Moreover, isolation by distance might play a critical role in shaping the genomic variation within Eurasia continent chicken breeds. Moreover, genetic information provided in this study is valuable resources for production applications (genomic prediction, and breeding strategy) and scientific research (genetic basis detection, studying evolution, or domestication).

GC-MS metabolomics on PPAR?-dependent exacerbation of colitis.

Project description:Fenofibrate, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ? (PPAR?) agonist, was found to exacerbate inflammation and tissue injury in experimental acute colitis mice. Through lipidomics analysis, bioactive sphingolipids were significantly up-regulated in the colitis group. In this study, to provide further insight into the PPAR?-dependent exacerbation of colitis, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) based metabolomics was employed to investigate the serum and colon of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis mice treated with fenofibrate, with particular emphasis on changes in low-molecular-weight metabolites. With the aid of multivariate analysis and metabolic pathway analysis, potential metabolite markers in the amino acid metabolism, urea cycle, purine metabolism, and citrate cycle were highlighted, such as glycine, serine, threonine, malic acid, isocitric acid, uric acid, and urea. The level changes of these metabolites in either serum or colons of colitis mice were further potentiated following fenofibrate treatment. Accordingly, the expression of threonine aldolase and phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 was significantly up-regulated in colitis mice and further potentiated in fenofibrate/DSS-treated mice. It was revealed that beyond the control of lipid metabolism, PPAR? also shows effects on the above pathways, resulting in enhanced protein catabolism and energy expenditure, increased bioactive sphingolipid metabolism and proinflammatory state, which were possibly related to the exacerbated colitis.

Drying Enhances Signal Intensities for Global GC⁻MS Metabolomics.

Project description:We report here that a straightforward change of the standard derivatization procedure for GC⁻MS metabolomics is leading to a strong increase in metabolite signal intensity. Drying samples between methoxymation and trimethylsilylation significantly increased signals by two- to tenfold in extracts of yeast cells, plant and animal tissue, and human urine. This easy step reduces the cost of sample material and the need for expensive new hardware.
