Project description:The study investigated the impact of environment on the composition of the gut microbiota and mucosal immune development and function at gut surfaces in early and adult life. Piglets of similar genotype were reared in indoor and outdoor environments and in an experimental isolator facility. Mucosa-adherent microbial diversity in the pig ileum was characterized by sequence analysis of 16S rRNA gene libraries. Host-specific gene responses in gut ileal tissues to differences in microbial composition were investigated using Affymetrix microarray technology and Real-time PCR. Experiment Overall Design: Animals were reared on the sow at an outdoor or indoor facility. Additional piglets from the indoor facility were transferred to individual isolator units at 24 hours of age, and given a daily dose of antibiotic cocktail for the duration of the study. Piglets were weaned at day 28. From day 29 onwards, piglets were fed creep feed ad libitum. Ileal tissue samples were excised from N=6 piglets per group at day 5, 28 and 56.

Project description:Breast milk has shown neurodevelopmental advantages compared to infant formula, especially in IUGR infants, which may relate to the fat source. This study aimed to compare neurodevelopmental outcomes in normal birth weight (NBW) and intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) piglets fed a formula diet with either a vegetable oil (VEG) or bovine milk fat source (MILK). Results showed that total plasma lipids were increased by feeding the MILK diet. 82% and 11% of lipid species were differentially expressed between dietary groups in plasma and hippocampus, respectively, with slight agreement between the plasma and brain lipidome. The MILK diet was most effective in increasing brain lipid accretion, mainly comprising phospholipids. Absolute regional brain weights, grey and white matter volumes, and behavior and motor function scores were lower in IUGR piglets with no effects of diet. Cognitive function and gene expression profiles were similar for dietary and weight groups, and overall only minor interactive effects between diet and weight were observed. In conclusion, dietary fat source influenced the plasma and to a lesser degree the hippocampal lipidome, but was unable to improve on IUGR induced brain structural and functional impairments.

Project description:Antipsychotic drugs (APs) are used to treat psychiatric disorders but also have the prominent side effect of weight gain resulting in a higher incidence of metabolic disease in this patient group. While the majority of patients gain significant weight in response to APs some patients are relatively resistant to these effects. APs such as clozapine and olanzapine are deemed to be highly efficacious at treating psychiatric conditions yet they have some of the highest weight gain liabilities. Therefore, there is a need to determine which patients are less susceptible to the metabolic side effects of APs and would be good candidates for drugs such as olanzapine, and conversely, identifying patients that should be prescribed alternative APs with less weight gain liabilities.

Project description:Breast milk is the primary source of nutrition for newborns, and rich in immunological components. microRNAs (miRNAs), a well-defined group of non-coding small RNAs, are present in various body fluids (such as breast milk), which are selectively packaged inside the exosomes, a type of membrane vesicles, secreted by most cell types. These exosomal miRNAs could be actively delivered into recipient cells, and regulate target gene expression and recipient cell function. We present the lactation-related miRNA expression profiles in porcine milk exosomes across entire lactation period in pig industry (newborn to 28 days after birth) using deep sequencing technology. We found that the immune-related miRNAs are presented and enriched in breast milk exosomes, and generally resistant to relatively harsh conditions. Notably, these exosomal miRNAs exhibited the higher abundances in the colostrum (newborn to 3 days after birth) than that in the mature milk (7 to 28 days after birth), as well as in the serum of colostrum-feeding piglets compared with the only mature milk-feeding piglets. These immune-related miRNAs-loaded exosomes in breast milk may be transferred into the infant body via the digestive tract. These observations are prelude to the in-depth investigations of the essential roles of the breast milk in the development of the infant’s immune system. Eight small RNA libraries in porcine breast milk exosomes of six lactigenous stages (0, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after birth) from three female pigs were sequenced.

Project description:Sub-optimal fetal development is associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes (T2D) and adiposity later in life. However, definitions of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and small for gestational age (SGA) are based on simple statistical approaches that may misclassify infants with a normal developmental profile and vice versa. We used an unbiased global profiling approach to identify gene expression patterns in umbilical cord tissue from 38 infants and identified a set of 466 genes which separated the subjects into 2 distinct groups – one biased towards lower birth weight and one biased towards normal birth weight. The data suggest that approximately 30% of children of normal size have a molecular profile more typical of impaired fetal development and who may be on a programmed trajectory. Differences in expression between the two groups encompassed 384 upregulated and 82 downregulated genes. Molecular profiling at birth may have utility in identifying markers that potentially reflect antenatal developmental and may be predictive of future phenotypic development after birth. Importantly, it may provide an alternative to the current classification of infants using birth weights. RNA from umbilical cord tissue from full term neonates was extracted and hybridized. Separation into 2 distinct groups, independent of birth weight, but based solely on gene expression levels was analysed by Genespring. After appropriate statistical analysis, one group was keenly associated with a higher birth weight (22 samples) while the other was associated with a lower birth-weight (18 samples). Technical replicates were included for all 40 samples.
