Prolonged exposure to high temperature can significantly increase metabolism, depress appetite, reduce meat production and raise mortality in broilers. Because the cardiovascular system plays an important role to dissipate heat and transport oxygen, strong cardiac function is indispensable for birds to survive under heat stress. However, due to small hearts relative to body weight, modern broilers have high risk of heart failure at high temperature.
In this study, a Ross 708 line (modern broilers) and a Heritage broiler line (relaxed selection since the 1950s) were subjected to heat stress at 35℃ for 7 hours/day from 21 to 42 days posthatch …

Cytochrome b5 (CYB5A) is an important electron transfer protein with homologues in a number of different organisms. In pigs, CYB5A is related to boar taint because of its role in androstenone biosynthesis. To determine the variety of CYB5A expression in pig breeds, genetic variations in the porcine CYB5A promoter region in both Chinese and European pig breeds were examined. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (NC_010443.4:
g.165901487delG, g.165901767T>C and g.165902078C>T) were identified in the porcine CYB5A promoter region. These SNPs occurred in different frequencies in Chinese and European pigs. Chinese pigs were primarily haplotype B (denoted as delG-C-T: the position of nt …

Hyperplasticgrowth and hypertrophicgrowth within adiposetissue is tightly associated with cellcycle activity. In this study, CCNG2 and CDKN2C were found to be correlated with cellcycle inhibition during fat cell differentiation, whereas CCND3, CCNA1, and ANAPC5 were positively associated with cellcycle activity during fat cell proliferation after selection based on GEO datasets available on the NCBI website. The findings were validated through comparison of expressions of these genes among different tissues/fractions in broiler chickens and time points during primary cell culture using quantitative real-time PCR. Development of broilersubcutaneousadiposetissue was investigated on embryonic days 15 and 17 and on post-hatch days 0, 5, …

Secretoryfactors in animals play an important role in communication between different cells, tissues and organs. Especially, the secretoryfactors with specific expression in one tissue may reflect important functions and unique status of that tissue in an organism. In this study, we identified potential tissue-specificsecretoryfactors in the fat, muscle, heart, lung, kidney and liver in the mouse by analyzing microarray data from NCBI's Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) public repository and searching and predicting their subcellular location in GeneCards and WoLF PSORT, and then confirmed tissue-specific expression of the genes using semi-quantitative PCR reactions. With this approach, we confirmed 11 lung, 7 …

Increase of fat cells (FCs) in adipose tissue is attributed to proliferation of preadipocytes or immature adipocytes in the early stage, as well as adipogenic differentiation in the later stage of adipose development. Although both events are involved in the FC increase, they are contrary to each other, because the former requires cell cycle activity, whereas the latter requires cell cycle withdrawal. Therefore, appropriate regulation of cell cycle inhibition is critical to adipogenesis. In order to explore the important cell cycle inhibitors and study their expression in adipogenesis, we adopted a strategy combining the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database available …

Increasing numbers of fat cells in adipose tissue are attributed to proliferation of preadipocytes or immature adipocytes in the early stages as well as adipogenic differentiation in the later stages of adipogenesis. Although both events are involved in the increase in fat cell numbers, they are contrary to each other in that the former requires cell cycle activity whereas the latter requires cell cycle withdrawal. Therefore, appropriate regulation of cell cycle inhibition is critical to adipogenesis.

Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at -660bp (deletion of a single guanine base), -380bp (T>C), -69bp (C>T) were identified by sequencing cDNA of CYB5 genes in different Chinese and Foreign pigs. After subsequent detection using microsatellite, pyrosequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) techniques in large populations of different pig breeds, we found that the mutations in all the SNP sites were favorable in Chinese pigs except LiCha black pigs which were crossed with Landrace pigs before, whereas the wild type nucleotides were favorable in Foreign pigs including Large White, Landrace and Duroc pigs. Therefore, we conclude that these SNPs …

3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (HSDs) and 17βHSDs are pivotal enzymes involved in synthesis, activation and deactivation of steroid hormones. Therefore, they play an important role to maintain homeostasis of hormone and regulate the synthesis and metabolism of hormones, and they are also related to metabolism of androstenone which can cause boar taint in male pigs. Through ligation of different PCR fragments of these genes from Large White pigs to pGL3-basic plasmid and subsequent transient transfection of constructed vectors into HepG2 cell culture, we found that the fragment from -1038bp to 45bp in porcine 3βHSD gene and the fragment from -966bp to 39bp …
