Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) profiles vary with the nutritional and pathological conditions of cattle. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of inulin supplement on miRNA profiles derived from serum extracellular vesicles (EVs). Our goal was to determine the differences in miRNA expressions and analyse the pathways in which they are involved. Based on the results of California mastitis test and milk somatic cell counts, ten lactating cows with subclinical mastitis were randomly divided into two groups: an inulin group and a control group (n = 5 in each group). The inulin group received a daily supplement of 300 g of inulin while the control group did not receive any supplementation. After a 5-week treatment period, serum-derived EV-miRNAs from each cow were isolated. High-throughput sequencing was conducted to identify differentially expressed miRNAs. GO and KEGG bioinformatics analysis was performed to examine the target genes of these differentially expressed miRNAs. The EV-RNA concentration and small RNA content were not affected by the inulin treatment. A total of 162 known miRNAs and 180 novel miRNAs were identified from 10 samples in the two groups. Among the known miRNAs, 23 miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed between the two groups, with 18 upregulated and five downregulated in the inulin group compared to the control group. Pathway analysis revealed the involvement of these differentially expressed miRNAs in the regulation of cell structure and function, lipid oxidation and metabolism, immunity and inflammation, as well as digestion and absorption of nutrients. Overall, our study provides a molecular-level explanation for the reported beneficial health effects of inulin supplementation in cows with subclinical mastitis.

Project description:Milk microRNAs (miRNAs) encapsulated in extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a novel class of bioactive food compounds. Milk produced by cows with subclinical mastitis threatens animals healthy and milk safety. However, little is known about the differentially expressed miRNA in milk-derived EVs related to subclinical mastitis. This study profiled miRNAs in milk-derived EVs from healthy cows and cows with subclinical mastitis. The potential targets for differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs were predicted. Milk-derived EVs were isolated from healthy cows (n = 7, the control group) and cows with subclinical (n = 7, the SM group). Two hundred ninety miRNAs (221 known and 69 novel ones) were identified. The top 20 miRNAs were commonly abundant (> 0.1% of the total read counts) in Healthy and SM groups, were regarded as abundant bovine milk-derived EVs miRNAs. MiR-21-5p was the most highly expressed known miRNA. Target genes of the top 20 abundant miRNAs were significantly enriched in Ras signaling pathway. The bta-miR-21-5p, bta-miR-30a-5p and miR-6-1096 were differentially expressed. For DE miRNAs, there was no significantly enriched pathways were found in the KEGG enrichment analysis. The linkage between the validated target genes and diseases suggested that we pay particular attention to exosome miRNAs from mastitic milk in milk safety.

Project description:Milk protein is one of the most important economic traits in the dairy industry. Yet, the miRNA gene regulatory network for the synthesis of milk protein in mammary is poorly understood. In this study, the hypothesis was that miRNAs have potential roles in bovine milk protein production. Using miRNA-seq and RNA-seq, we investigated the miRNAs profiles of mammary glands from 12 Chinese Holstein cows with six cows at peak of lactation and six in non-lactating period, from which three cows were in high and three in low milk protein percentage.

Project description:Mammalian milk is not only a source of nutrition for the newborn, but also contains various components that regulate further development. For instance, milk is an abundant source of microRNAs (miRNAs), which are evolutionary conserved small non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of target mRNA. MiRNAs present in milk can occur in extracellular vesicles (EV), which are nanosized membrane vesicles released by many cell types as a means of intercellular communication. The membrane of EV protects enclosed miRNAs from degradation and harbors molecules that allow specific targeting to recipient cells. Although several studies have investigated the miRNA content in milk EV from individual species, little is known about the evolutionary conserved nature of EV-associated miRNAs among different species. In this study, we profiled the miRNA content of purified EV from human and porcine milk. These data were compared to published studies on EV from human, cow, porcine and panda milk to assess the overlap in the top 20 most abundant miRNAs. Interestingly, several abundant miRNAs were shared between species (e.g. let-7 family members let-7a, let-7b, let-7f, and miR-148a). Moreover, these miRNAs have been implicated in immune-related functions and regulation of cell growth and signal transduction. The conservation of these miRNA among species, not only in their sequence homology , but also in their incorporation in milk EV of several species, suggests that they are evolutionarily selected to regulate cell function in the newborn.

Project description:Milk can mediate maternal-neonatal signal transmission by the bioactive component-extracellular vesicles (EVs), which select specific types of miRNA to encapsulate. The miRNA profiling of sheep milk EVs was characterized by sequencing and compared with that of cow milk. Sheep milk EVs contained various small RNAs, including tRNA, Cis-regulatory element, rRNA, snRNA, other Rfam RNA, and miRNA, which held about 36% of all the small RNAs. Totally 84 types of miRNAs were annotated with Ovis aries by miRBase (version 22.0) in sheep milk EVs, with 75 shared types of miRNAs in all samples. Fourteen sheep milk EV-miRNAs in the top 20, occupying 98% of the total expression, were immune-related.

Project description:Effect of breed in mid lactation Holstein (H) and Montbéliarde (M) cows on mammary glande miRNA profile. Genetic polymorphisms are known to influence milk production and composition. However, genomic mechanisms involved in the genetic regulation of milk component synthesis are not completely understood. MicroRNAs (miRNA) regulate gene expression. The objective of the present study was to compare mammary gland miRNomes of two dairy cow breeds, Holstein and Montbéliarde, with different dairy performances. Milk, fat, protein, and lactose yields were lower in Montbéliarde than in Holstein cows. MiRNomes obtained using RNA-Seq technology from the mammary glands of Holstein (n = 5) and Montbéliarde (n = 6) lactating cows revealed 623 distinct expressed miRNAs, among which 596 were known and 27 were predicted miRNAs. The comparison of their abundance in the mammary gland of Holstein versus Montbéliarde cows showed 22 differentially expressed miRNAs (Padj ≤ 0.05). Among them, 11 presented a fold change ≥2, with 2 highly expressed miRNAs (miR-100 and miR-146b). Without taking into account the fold change, the differential miRNA with the highest abundance was miR-186, which is known to inhibit cell proliferation and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Data mining showed that the 17 differentially expressed miRNAs with more than 20 reads on average, regulate mammary gland plasticity and may be related to the observed differences in milk production between Holstein and Montbéliarde, which are two breeds with different mammogenic potential. Some of the 17 miRNAs could potentially target mRNAs involved in signaling pathways (such as mTOR) and in lipid metabolism, thereby suggesting that they could influence milk composition. In conclusion, we showed differences in mammary gland miRNomes of two dairy bovine breeds. These differences suggest a potential role of miRNAs in mammary gland plasticity and in milk component synthesis related to milk production and composition.

Project description:The aim of the present study was to correlate lipid metabolism genes in the mammary gland tissue affected by stage of lactation and nutrition to the resulting milk fatty acids composition in grazing dairy cows, and to classify milk fatty acid (FA) groups based on variations in lipid metabolism gene expression patterns. Identifying the relationship between lipid metabolism genes in the mammary gland tissue and the resulting milk fatty acid composition is expected to greatly contribute to our understanding of milk fatty acid metabolism and to enhance opportunities to improve milk fat composition through nutrition. In fact, SNCA, SCD5, and PNPLA2 lipid metabolism-related genes affected by unsaturated fatty acids supplementation, were found to strongly correlated to different milk FA groups, but also contributed most to the classification of these FA groups, suggesting a significant role in mediating the lipid metabolism in the mammary gland tissue and determining the milk fatty acids composition. A total of 28 Holstein-Friesian dairy cows in mid-lactation were blocked according to parity (2.4 ± 0.63 years), days in milk (DIM; 153 ± 32.8 days), milk yield (25.7 ± 3.08 kg/d) and fat content (4.3 ± 0.12%). Cows were then randomly assigned to four UFA-sources based on rapeseed, soybean, linseed or a mixture of the three oils for 23 days (Period I) after which, all 28 cows were switched to a control diet for an additional 28 days (Period II). On the last day of both periods, mammary gland biopsies were taken to study genome-wide differences in lipid metabolism gene expression.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their microRNA (miRNA) cargo have been suggested as potential biomarkers for mammary gland health in cattle. However, milk is a dynamic fluid, and its biologically active components, including miRNAs, could be subject to changes throughout the day. The current study aimed to evaluate the circadian fluctuation of milk EVs miRNA cargo to assess the feasibility of milk EVs as future biomarkers for mammary gland health management. Milk from four healthy dairy cows was collected manually from one quarter during four consecutive days in the two daily milking sessions in the morning and the afternoon. The SCC was determined, and the milk EVs were isolated from skimmed milk. The presence of EVs was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), tunable resistive pulse sensing (TRPS), and western blot (WB). Small RNA libraries were produced from 10 ng of extracted RNA and sequenced in two lanes of a HiSeq2500. The heterogeneity and integrity of EVs and the protein EV markers CD9, CD81, and TSG101 were confirmed by TEM and WB. The sequencing revealed that despite daily fluctuation in other milk components, like the somatic cells during milking sessions, the miRNA cargo abundance in milk EVs stayed constant. Our results show that the miRNA cargo of milk EVs is very stable regardless of the hour of the day, supporting their potential use as diagnostic markers for mammary gland health.

Project description:The aim of this study was to determine the effects of linseed dietary supplementation on gene expression in the mammary gland of grazing dairy cows. Milk composition and gene expression in the mammary gland tissue were evaluated in dairy cows supplemented with linseed. The linseed supplementation improves the health and nutrition quality aspects of dairy milk, but also affects the gene networks expression signature associated with cellular growth and proliferation, cell-death, signalling, nutrient metabolism, and immune response, and in turn, the mammary gland integrity and health. The experiment was carried out in a complete randomized blocked designed structure comprising 14 Holstein-Friesian cows (6 second parity, 2 third parity and 6 older cows), selected from a 550-cow herd. Cows were paired in 7 blocks on the basis of similarity in parity (second parity, third parity and older cows), expected date of calving, and milk performance in the previous lactation (in order of priority). Cows within each block were randomly allocated to one of two treatment groups, “Omega” or “Control”. The dietary Omega treatment consisted of a basal diet supplemented with a concentrate-mixture including linseed on a dry matter (DM) basis, whereas cows in treatment group Control were supplemented with a concentrate mixture without linseed. Linseed was chosen because it is rich in c9,c12,c15-18:3 (ALA). Concentrate mixtures were fed with a concentrate dispenser. Experimental treatments started 3 weeks before the expected calving date (wk -3) and lasted until 6 weeks after calving (wk 6).

Project description:Cows were fed a lactation diet at ad libitum intake (n = 6). At 27±3 days in milk, cows were injected with 50 µg of LPS E. coli in one healthy rear mammary quarter. Milk samples were collected just before LPS challenge (LPS-) and 6.5 h after LPS challenge (LPS+) from the same cows. Microarray analysis was performed using customized 8x60K ruminant miRNA microarrays to compare LPS- to LPS+ miRNome. MiRNome comparison between LPS- and LPS+ identified 37 differentially abundant miRNAs (q-value ≤ 0.05)
