Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding regulatory RNAs that play key roles in many diverse biological processes such as spermatogenesis. However, no study has been performed on the miRNA transcriptome of developing porcine testes. Here, we employed Solexa deep sequencing technology to extend the repertoire of porcine testis miRNAs and extensively compare the expression patterns of the sexually immature and mature porcine testes. Solexa sequencing of two small RNA libraries derived from immature (30 days) and mature (180 days) pig testis samples yielded over 25 million high-quality reads. Overall, the two developmental stages had significantly different small RNA compositions. A custom data analysis pipeline identified 398 known and/or homologous conserved porcine miRNAs, 15 novel pig-specific miRNAs, and 56 novel candidate miRNAs. We further observed multiple mature miRNA variants (isomiRs) and identified a new bidirectional transcribed miRNA locus, ssc-mir-181a. One hundred twenty-two miRNAs were differentially expressed in the immature and mature testes, and 10 were validated using quantitative RT-PCR. Furthermore, GO and KEGG pathway analyses of the predicted miRNA targets further illustrate the likely roles for these differentially expressed miRNAs in spermatogenesis. This study is the first comparative profile of the miRNA transcriptome in immature and mature porcine testes using a deep sequencing approach, and it provides a useful resource for future studies on the role of miRNAs in spermatogenesis and male infertility treatment.

Project description:Factors delivered to offspring in colostrum within two days of birth support neonatal porcine uterine development. The uterine mRNA transcriptome is affected by age and nursing during this period. Whether uterine microRNA (miRNA) expression is affected similarly is unknown. Objectives were to: 1) determine effects of age and nursing on porcine uterine miRNA expression between birth and postnatal day (PND) 2 using small RNA sequencing (smRNA-Seq) and; 2) define affected miRNA-mRNA interactions and associated biological processes using integrated target prediction analysis.

Project description:Pig is the important animal model for human obesity and diseases. However, the complexity of the porcine transcriptome is not yet fully elucidated. Here we have used massively parallel high-throughput sequencing of cDNA (RNA-seq) to generate a high-resolution map of the porcine miRNA in liver (LI), longissimus dorsi (LD) and abdominal fat (AF) from a F2 female full-sib pair with extreme phenotypes on growth and fat deposit. Through small RNA sequencing and on the basis of miRbase15.0, we detected a total of 184 mature miRNAs and 164 unique porcine novel miRNAs. Some conserved miRNAs, such as miR-122, miR-1, miR-206 and let-7 family showed high expression level in this study. Finally, we identified 10, 20 and 63 differentially expressed miRNAs, respectively, in LI, LD and AF. This high resolution and comprehensive transcriptome analysis significantly enhances the current genome annotation of pigs.

Project description:To identify miRNAs involved in muscle development, three independent small RNA libraries from porcine skeletal muscle at the age of 63d、98d and 161d were constructed. A total of 4105184， 4606375 and 5113984 mappable small RNA sequences were generated in the three small RNA libraries, respectively, and 887 known and 472 new candidate miRNAs were obtained.

Project description:Despite increasing efforts in miRNAs identification across various species and diverse tissue types, little is known about porcine gonad-specific miRNAs. Although the well-known importance of pig in agriculture, as well as a model for human biology, the miRNA catalog of pig has been largely undefined. Identification and preliminary characterization of gonad-specific miRNAs would be a prerequisite for a thorough understanding of their roles in regulating folliculogenesis and spermatogenesis. In the present study, we get insight into miRNA transcriptome in adult porcine ovary and testis using deep sequencing technology, and to elucidate their characteristic organ- and gender-specific profiles, genomic context and emphasize the features of X-linked miRNAs. Two small RNA libraries from adult porcine ovary and testis tissues were sequenced.

Project description:Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs has devastated the swine industry since the 1990s. Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the primary cause of this disease. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that play important roles in regulating gene expression, especially at the post-transcription level. The expression profiles of miRNAs have been reported in porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, porcine parvovirus, and other pig diseases; however, the miRNA expression profiles in pigs infected with PCV2 have not been reported so far. The Laiwu pig (a Chinese indigenous pig breed) has different meat quality, adipogenesis, and disease-resistance from western commercial pig breeds. In this study, four small RNA libraries were constructed from the lung tissue of uninfected and infected Laiwu and Yorkshire/Landrace crossbred (YL) pigs. High-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics were used to determine the abundance and differential expression of miRNAs in the four libraries
