Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12192683. [PMID: 36230427 PMCID: PMC9558979 DOI: 10.3390/ani12192683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 10/01/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
LncRNAs are essential for regulating skeletal muscle. However, the expression profile and function of lncRNAs in goat muscle remains unclear. Here, an average of ~14.58 Gb high-quality reads were obtained from longissimus dorsi tissues of 1-month-old (n = 3) and 9-month-old (n = 3) Wu'an black goats using RNA sequencing. Of a total of 3441 lncRNAs, 1281 were lincRNAs, 805 were antisense lncRNAs, and 1355 were sense_overlapping lncRNAs. These lncRNAs shared some properties with goats, such as fewer exons, shorter transcript, and open reading frames (ORFs) length. Among them, 36 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DE lncRNA) were identified, and then 10 random lncRNAs were validated by RT-qPCR. Furthermore, 30 DE lncRNAs were neighboring 71 mRNAs and several genes were functionally enriched in muscle development-related pathways, such as APC, IFRD1, NKX2-5, and others. Additionally, 36 DE lncRNAs and 2684 mRNAs were included in co-expression interactions. A lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network containing 4 lncRNAs, 3 miRNAs, and 8 mRNAs was finally constructed, of which XR_001296113.2 might regulate PDLIM7 expression by interaction with chi-miR-1296 to affect skeletal muscle development. This study revealed the expression profile of goat lncRNAs for further investigative studies and provides a fuller understanding of skeletal muscle development.

Genes (Basel) 2020; 11:genes11090970. [PMID: 32825655 PMCID: PMC7564575 DOI: 10.3390/genes11090970] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2020] [Revised: 08/16/2020] [Accepted: 08/19/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
microRNAs (miRNAs) play a significant role in ovarian follicular maturity, but miRNA expression patterns in ovarian stroma (OS), large follicles (LF), and small follicles (SF) have been rarely explored. We herein aimed to identify miRNAs, their target genes and signaling pathways, as well as their interaction networks in OS, LF, and SF of Chuanzhong black goats at the estrus phase using small RNA-sequencing. We found that the miRNA expression profiles of LF and SF were more similar than those of OS—32, 16, and 29 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified in OS vs. LF, OS vs. SF, and LF vs. SF, respectively. Analyses of functional enrichment and the miRNA-targeted gene interaction network suggested that miR-182 (SMC3), miR-122 (SGO1), and miR-206 (AURKA) were involved in ovarian organogenesis and hormone secretion by oocyte meiosis. Furthermore, miR-202-5p (EREG) and miR-485-3p (FLT3) were involved in follicular maturation through the MAPK signaling pathway, and miR-2404 (BMP7 and CDKN1C) played a key role in follicular development through the TGF-β signaling pathway and cell cycle; nevertheless, further research is warranted. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate miRNA expression patterns in OS, LF, and SF of Chuanzhong black goats during estrus. Our findings provide a theoretical basis to elucidate the role of miRNAs in follicular maturation. These key miRNAs might provide candidate biomarkers for the diagnosis of follicular maturation and will assist in developing new therapeutic targets for female goat infertility.

BMC Genomics 2020; 21:267. [PMID: 32228439 PMCID: PMC7106838 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-020-6671-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2019] [Accepted: 03/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Fertility is an important economic trait in the production of meat goat, and follicular development plays an important role in fertility. Although many mRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to play critical roles in ovarian biological processes, the interaction between mRNAs and miRNAs in follicular development is not yet completely understood. In addition, less attention has been given to the study of single follicle (dominant or atretic follicle) in goats. This study aimed to identify mRNAs, miRNAs, and signaling pathways as well as their interaction networks in the ovarian follicles (large follicles and small follicles) of uniparous and multiple Chuanzhong black goats at estrus phase using RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) technique. Results The results showed that there was a significant difference in the number of large follicles between uniparous and multiple goats (P < 0.05), but no difference in the number of small follicles was observed (P > 0.05). For the small follicles of uniparous and multiple goats at estrus phase, 289 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs) and 16 DEmiRNAs were identified; and for the large follicles, 195 DEmRNAs and 7 DEmiRNAs were identified. The functional enrichment analysis showed that DE genes in small follicles were significantly enriched in ovarian steroidogenesis and steroid hormone biosynthesis, while in large follicles were significantly enriched in ABC transporters and steroid hormone biosynthesis. The results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction were consistent with those of RNA-seq. Analysis of the mRNA-miRNA interaction network suggested that CD36 (miR-122, miR-200a, miR-141), TNFAIP6 (miR-141, miR-200a, miR-182), CYP11A1 (miR-122), SERPINA5 (miR-1, miR-206, miR-133a-3p, miR-133b), and PTGFR (miR-182, miR-122) might be related to fertility, but requires further research on follicular somatic cells. Conclusions This study was used for the first time to reveal the DEmRNAs and DEmiRNAs as well as their interaction in the follicles of uniparous and multiple goats at estrus phase using RNA-seq technology. Our findings provide new clues to uncover the molecular mechanisms and signaling networks of goat reproduction that could be potentially used to increase ovulation rate and kidding rate in goat.

Abstract
China has abundant population of Tibetan goats, but available information regarding genetic structure and phylogenetic status remains limited. Here, 130 mitochondrial D-loop sequences of individuals from 10 Tibetan goat populations located in distinct plateau areas were analyzed. Eighty-six haplotypes were defined, among which 97.7% were group-specific haplotypes. Haplotype and nucleotide diversity indices were 0.990 ± 0.003 and 0.0145 ± 0.0013, respectively. The pairwise Wright's F-statistics ranged from -0.028 to 0.385, and over half of them were greater than 0.05, indicating apparent genetic differentiation among the populations. AMOVA analysis (FST = 0.0858) manifested that the genetic structure has become weak. Phylogenetic trees revealed four haplogroups (A, B, C, and D), suggesting that Tibetan goats had four origins. Mismatch distribution analyses and neutrality tests indicated that at least one population expansion event occurred during the demographic history of Tibetan goat. These results will provide a more complete understanding of Tibetan goat genetic resources.

Abstract
As adulterated and substituted Chinese medicinal materials are common in the market, therapeutic effectiveness of such materials cannot be guaranteed. Identification at species-, strain- and locality-levels, therefore, is required for quality assurance/control of Chinese medicine. This review provides an informative introduction to DNA methods for authentication of Chinese medicinal materials. Technical features and examples of the methods based on sequencing, hybridization and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are described and their suitability for different identification objectives is discussed.
