Project description:Transcriptional profiling of eight normal adult chicken tissues in 10-week old brown (lohmann brown) hens, the eight tissues include brain, bursa of Fabricius, jejunum, kidney, liver, lung, spleen, thymus. Keywords: normal chicken tissues, transcriptional profiling.
Project description:ISA Brown Warren medium heavy layer hens were divergently selected for 25 generations on their primary immune response. Two selection chicken lines were established: chickens with a high natural antibody response (H) and chicken with a low natural antibody response (L). Besides a control line of randomly bred chickens was included (C) (Parmentier et al.
Project description:Calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) are essential micronutrients that are linked to a wide set of biological processes. In laying hens there is still uncertainty about the optimal Ca/P ratio in feed and further strategies for the reliable mineral restriction in poultry diets are required. The dataset is based on Lohmann Selected Leghorn (LSL) and Lohmann Brown (LB) laying hens sampled at peak performance. The experimental design comprises four dietary groups differed in Ca (recommended vs. 15 % reduction) and mineral P (adequate vs. 20 % reduction) levels; 1) control diet (Con; Ca=34.4g/kg, P=5.3 g/kg and Ca/P ratio=7.45), 2) Low Ca and P diet (LCaP), 3) low Ca diet (LCa), and low P diet (LP). Jejunal transcriptome profiles were assessed by mRNA sequencing in a total of 80 animals (10 hens per experimental group for each laying line) at sampling age of 31 weeks) to approximate the consequences of variable Ca and P supply.
Project description:In order to have a better understanding about genetic regulation of response to NDV challenge, and also to identify the candidate genes regulating disease resistance in combination with GWAS, gene expression in spleen of Hy-Line Brown chickens was investigated. The chickens were divided into two groups (8 chickens/group) that are respectively treated by NDV(200 ul of 108 EID50%) and Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) through nasal and ocular inoculation routes at 21 days post hatch. Gene expression in spleen was then detected by RNA-seq at 2 and 6 day post inoculation (dpi).
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of eight normal adult chicken tissues in 10-week old brown (lohmann brown) hens, the eight tissues include brain, bursa of Fabricius, jejunum, kidney, liver, lung, spleen, thymus. Keywords: normal chicken tissues, transcriptional profiling. eight different normal chicken adult tissue types, five biological replicates per tissue, each individual sample was hybridized with a common reference pool (pool of RNA samples from all individual samples). All individual samples were labeled with Cy3, common reference was labeled with Cy5.
Project description:Calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) are essential micronutrients linked to arrays of biological processes and physiological conditions. In laying hens, the optimal Ca/P ratio in feed is inconsistent but necessary for reliable schemes of mineral restriction in poultry diets. This study investigates the effects of dietary treatments varying in the Ca and P levels in two laying hen strains (Lohmann Brown-Classic and Lohmann LSL-Classic) at the peak of egg production (31 weeks of age). Four dietary treatment groups were differed in Ca (recommended vs. 15 % reduction) and mineral P (adequate vs. 20 % reduction) levels; 1) control diet (Con; Ca=34.4g/kg, P=5.3 g/kg and Ca/P ratio=7.45), 2) Low Ca and P diet (LCaP), 3) low Ca diet (LCa), and 4) low P diet (LP). microRNA expression of the jejunum mucosa were profiled by microRNA sequencing in a total of 80 animals (10 hens per experimental diet group for each of the two laying line) at sampling age of 31 weeks. RNA-seq data of matched samples are also available (E-MTAB-9109).
