Genome-wide expression profiling in muscle and subcutaneous fat of lambs in response to the intake of concentrate supplemented with vitamin E

Abstract: BackgroundThe objective of this study was to acquire a broader, more comprehensive picture of the transcriptional changes in the L. Thoracis muscle (LT) and subcutaneous fat (SF) of lambs supplemented with vitamin E. Furthermore, we aimed to identify novel genes involved in the metabolism of vitamin E that might also be involved in meat quality. In the first treatment, seven lambs were fed a basal concentrate from weaning to slaughter (CON). In the second treatment, seven lambs received basal concentrate from … Show more

“…The roles of bta-miR-484 have been reported above, while it is not clear how these three genes are involved in the metabolism of C16:0. However, DOLPP1 has a potential role in regulating subcutaneous fat [ 81 ] while LY6E might play a role in the regulation of glycosylphosphatidylinositol. Also, QDPR is important for fat traits in pigs [ 82 ].…”

“…Gene expression normalized data were analyzed using Babelomics (http://babelomics.bioinfo.cipf. es/; accessed 15 Jan 2016) and MetaboAnalyst software (http://www.metaboanalyst.ca/, accessed 15 Jan 2016; Xia et al, 2009), following the workflow described by González-Calvo et al (2017). Briefly, genes were considered differentially expressed between treatments when the statistically significant value of the Limma test was P < 0.01.…”

“…The other seven lambs were weaned (48 ± 0.9 days of age) and then fed a basal concentrate for 24 (± 2.6) days until slaughter at 23 kg (CON group). These lambs were the same as those described in González-Calvo et al (2017), and were reared alongside the ALF group. Lambs belonging to ALF treatment received dams’ milk, fresh alfalfa (grazing) and commercial concentrate, the same that was offered to CON treatment during the experimental period.…”
