Project description:Background/Aims: Tibetan chickens, a unique plateau breed, have good performances to adapt to high-altitude hypoxic environments. A number of positively selected genes have been reported in Tibetan chickens; however, the mechanisms of gene expression for hypoxia adaptation are not fully understood. Methods: Eggs from Tibetan (TC) and Chahua (CH) chickens were incubated under hypoxic and normoxic conditions, and vessel density index (VDI) in the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of embryos was measured. Meanwhile, Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of CAM tissues were performed in TC and CH embryos under hypoxic incubation using RNA-seq and iTRAQ. Results: We found that the vessel density index (VDI) in CAM of TCs was lower than in CHs under hypoxia incubation. In the transcriptomic and proteomic analyses, 160 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 387 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) that were mainly enriched in angiogenesis, vasculature development, blood vessel morphogenesis, blood circulation, renin-angiotensin system, and HIF-1 and VEGF signaling pathways. Twenty-six genes involved in angiogenesis and blood circulation, two genes involved in ion transport, and six genes that regulated energy metabolism were identified as candidate functional genes in regulating hypoxic adaption of chicken embryos. Conclusion: Combination of transcriptomic and proteomic data revealed several key candidate regulators and pathways that might play high-priority roles in the hypoxic adaptation of Tibetan chickens by regulating angiogenesis and promoting blood circulation, thus explaining the blunt responses to hypoxic conditions on CAM angiogenesis in Tibetan chicken embryos. This research provided insights into the molecular mechanism of hypoxia adaptation in Tibetan chickens.

Project description:Tibetan chicken has a suite of adaptive features to tolerate the high-altitude hypoxic environment as a unique native breed in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of China. Increasing evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) have roles in hypoxic adaptation of high-altitude animals, though their exact contributions remain unclear. This study aims to uncover the global landscape of mRNAs, lncRNAs and miRNAs using transcriptome sequencing so as to construct a regulatory network of competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) provide a new sight for the hypoxic adaptation of Tibetan chicken embryos. In the study, 354 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEGs), 389 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs) and 73 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) were identified between Tibetan (TC) and Chahua chicken (CH). The functional analysis showed that several important DEMs and their targets of DELs and DEMs are involved in angiogenesis (include blood vessel development and blood circulation) and energy metabolism (include glucose, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism). The ceRNA network was then constructed with the predicted pairs of DEGs-DEMs-DELs which further revealed regulatory roles of these differentially expressed RNAs in hypoxic adaptation of Tibetan chicken.

Project description:Background: Tibetan chicken, a unique plateau breed, has a suite of adaptive features that enable it to tolerate the high-altitude hypoxic environment. HIF‐1α (hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit alpha) is a crucial mediator of the cellular response to hypoxia. HIF‐1α maintains oxygen homeostasis by inducing glycolysis, erythropoiesis, and angiogenesis; however, the target genes involved in adaptive responses to hypoxia in animals and birds of plateaus are still unclear. Results: We used ChIP-seq to map HIF‐1α binding regions in chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) tissue of chicken embryos, and identified 752 HIF-1α target genes (TG), of which 112 were differentially expressed target genes (DTGs) between the two breeds. We found that eight genes (PTK2, GPNMB, CALD1, SLC25A1, SPRY2, NUPL2, RANBPL, and CBWD1) play important roles in hypoxic adaption by regulating blood vessel development, energy metabolism through angiogenesis, vascular smooth muscle contraction, and various hypoxia-related signaling pathways (including VEGF and MAPK) in Tibetan chickens during embryonic development. Conclusions: This study enhances our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of hypoxic adaptation in Tibetan chickens and provides new insights into adaptation to hypoxia in humans and other species living at high altitude.

Project description:In this study, methylated DNA immunoprecipitation and high-throughput sequencing (MeDIP-seq) was used to provide an atlas of DNA methylomes in the heart tissue of hypoxic highland Tibetan and lowland Chahua chicken embryos.A total of 31.2 gigabases (Gb) of sequence data were generated from six MeDIP-seq libraries. We identified 1049 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) and 695 related differentially methylated genes (DMGs) between the two chicken breeds. The DMGs were involved in vascular smooth muscle contraction, VEGF signaling pathway, calcium signaling pathway, and other hypoxia related pathways. Five candidate genes that had low methylation (EDNRA, EDNRB, BMPR1B, BMPRII, and ITGA2) might have key regulatory functions for hypoxia adaptation in Tibetan chicken embryos. Our study provides significant explanations for the functions of genes and their epigenetic regulation for hypoxic adaptation in Tibetan chickens.

Project description:In this study, miRNA-seq technique was used to identify differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs) in cardiac muscle of the Tibetan pig (TP) and Yorkshire pig (YP), which were both raised in highland environments. We obtained 108 M clean reads and 372 unique miRNAs that included 210 known pre-miRNAs and 162 novel pre-miRNAs. In addition, 20 DE miRNAs, including 10 upregulated and 10 downregulated miRNAs, were identified by comparing TP and YP. Based on the expression abundance and differentiation between the two populations, we predicted their targets, and KEGG pathway analyses suggested that DE miRNAs between the Tibetan pigs and Yorkshire pigs are involved in hypoxia-related pathways, such as the MAPK, mTOR, and VEGF signaling pathways, cancer-related signaling pathways, etc. Five DE miRNAs were randomly selected to validate the veracity of miRNA-seq using real-time PCR. The results showed that the expression corresponds to the trend in miRNA-seq, hence the deep-sequencing methods were feasible and efficient. This study expanded the number of hypoxic-adaptation-related miRNAs in pig and indicated that the expression patterns of hypoxia-related miRNAs are significantly altered in the Tibetan pig. DE miRNAs may play important roles in hypoxic adaptation after migration to hypoxic environments. mRNA profiles of 6-month old Tibetan pig (TP) and Yorkshire pig (YP) were generated by deep sequencing, in duplicate, using Hiseq 2000.

Project description:Tibetan chickens exhibit specific adaptations to high-altitude conditions compared with their lowland counterparts. To illustrate the genetic mechanisms of such adaptations in highland chickens, the genomes of four highland and four lowland chicken populations were resequenced. Our results showed that genes under positive selection in highland populations were related to cardiovascular and respiratory system development, DNA repair, response to radiation, inflammation, and immune response, indicating a strong adaptation to oxygen scarcity and high-intensity solar radiation. The distribution of allele frequencies of non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms between highland and lowland populations was also analyzed by chi-square test. The results showed that several differentially distributed genes with missense mutations were enriched in several functional categories, especially in blood vessel development, which were related to adaptations to hypoxia and intense radiation. RNA sequencing also revealed that several differentially expressed genes were enriched in gene ontology terms related to blood vessel and respiratory system development. Additionally, an evident admixture found in Tibetan chickens suggested a history of introgression from lowland gene pools. Overall, our data provided new insights into the unique adaptation of highland animals to extreme environments.

Project description:Tibetan's adaptation to high-altitude environment at the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau represents a remarkable case of natural selection during recent human evolution. We generated time series paired RNAseq, ATACseq and Hi-C data in Tibetan and Han Chinese's umbilical endothelial cells from normoxia to hypoxia condition. Our results provide a broad resource of genome-wide hypoxia regulatory network to characterize the effect of genetic variation in high-altitude adaptation, and indicates large-scale maps of variants need proper cell types to understand its act on gene regulation.
