Project description:To obtain an overview of the transcriptome landscape in developing pig skeletal muscle, 81 high-quality transcriptome libraries that covered 27 developmental stages (3 biological replicates per stage) in pig skeletal muscle were produced by strand-specific rRNA-depleted total RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). We generated 8.59 billion paired-end reads (150 bp × 2) covering 1.24 Tb of sequence for RNA-seq.
Project description:To obtain an overview of the methylome landscape in the developing pig skeletal muscle, 81 high-quality whole-genome bisulfite sequencing(WGBS) libraries that covered 27 developmental stages (3 biological replicates per stage) from embryonic day 33 (E33) to postnatal day 180 (D180) were produced by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing.
Project description:Skeletal muscle were collected from pigs treated in the control group, the Lys deficiency group and the Lys rescue group. Then, the samples were analyzed by LC-MSMS.
Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in diverse biological processes. However, the landscape of lncRNAs is largely unclear in Sus scrofa. Here we performed stranded RNA-seq on total RNA libraries from over 100 samples of Sus scrofa tissues. We identified 10,813 lncRNAs in Sus scrofa, of which 9,075 are novel. 57% of these lncRNAs were conserved in both human and mouse. These conserved lncRNAs tend to be more tissue-specific than pig-specific lncRNAs, and enriched in reproducible organs (i.e. testis and ovary). We characterized a group of lncRNAs potentially involved in the skeletal muscle development. One such lncRNA, a homolog of maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3), was specifically expressed in the skeletal muscle at early developmental stage. And its expression pattern is conserved in pig and mouse. By over-expressing and knocking down MEG3 in mouse myoblast cell lines, we demonstrated its novel function as a myoblast proliferation suppressor.
Project description:Large White and Meishan pigs were either non-treated or injected with mammalian 1-24 ACTH (Immediate Synachten, Novartis France) at the dose of 250 µg per animal. Pigs were sacrificed either immediately after capture from their home cage (non-treated animals) or 1 hour following ACTH injection. Adrenal glands were immediately collected from pigs and frozen on dry ice and then stored at -80°C until RNA isolation. Keywords: stress response, adrenal, gene expression, pig
Project description:we want to test how different diets (high energy diet HED and low energy diet LED) alter muscle methabolism in pigs. we perform different array experiments using an human platform (GPL2011) and RNA extracted from pig skelethal muscle. thank's this we also test cross-species hybridisation. extraction of RNA from pig skeletal muscle by a modification of Chomczynski protocol. cDNA was purified and labelled with Cy3 and Cy5 fluorochromes using the cDNA labeling purification module kit (Invitrogen). The HED samples were analysed in comparison to LED samples, used as reference. The labelled cDNA were appropriately coupled and used for competitive hybridisation on the same microarray at 42°C for 16h. The relative intensity of labelled cDNA in HED and LED was acquired with ScanArray LITE scanner (PerkinElmer Life Sciences, Inc). platform used for our experiments is GPL2011.
