Description
Background: Marketing products with added-value characteristics is a current trend in livestock production systems. Regarding meat, selection for intramuscular fat and muscular fatty acid composition is a way to improve the palatability and juiciness of meat while assuring a healthy fat content. This represents selecting animal with a different muscular metabolic profile with respect to the extended selection of lean animals. Results: The present study has analysed the muscular gene expression profiles of 68 commercial Duroc pigs belonging to two groups with extreme phenotypes for traits strongly related with lipid deposition and composition. This has allowed us to compare the physiological and metabolic implications of selecting for each of these extreme groups. Rather than upregulation of a single pathway, the main differences lied on the transcriptional levels of genes related with lipogenesis and lipolysis, revealing the existence of a cycle where triacylglycerols are continuously synthesized and degraded. Most strikingly, several genes which enhanced fatty acid -oxidation and favoured insulin signalling and glucose uptake were upregulated in the fattest animals, indicating that the events leading to peripheral insulin resistance in humans with increased levels of intramuscular fat and obesity do not take place in these pigs. Moreover, neither was detected the well-characterised low-grade inflammatory state observed in overweighed humans. Conclusion: As a whole, our data suggest that selection for increasing intramuscular fat content in pigs would lead to a shift but not a disruption of the metabolic homeostasis of muscle cells. Future studies on the post-translational changes affecting protein activity or expression as well as information about protein location within the cell would be needed to fully understand how lipid deposition affects muscle physiology in pigs.

Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Normal human spermatogenesis concludes with the formation of large numbers of morphologically well developed spermatozoa. While transcriptionally quiescent these cells carry an RNA payload that reflects the final spermiogenic phase of transcription. We report here the spermatozoal transcript profiles characteristic of normally fertile individuals and infertile males suffering from a consistent and severe teratozoospermia in which under 4% of spermatozoa are morphologically normal. RNA was extracted from the purified sperm cells of ejaculate and hybridized to Affymetrix U133 (v2) Microarrays.

Description
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short non-coding RNA that play important roles in disease processes in animals and are present in a highly stable cell-free form in body fluids. Here we examine the capacity of host and parasite miRNAs to serve as tissue or serum biomarkers of Schistosoma mansoni infection. Sequencing of small RNAs from serum confirmed the presence of miRNAs and revealed 11 parasite-derived miRNAs that were detectable by 8 weeks post S.mansoni infection. Overall design: Small RNA content in serum of naïve and Schistosoma mansoni infected mice were examined in two different librarys. 1- prepared according to the 290 Illumina small RNA Sample Preparation Kit version 1.5 and sequenced on the GAIIX and 2- prepared according to the TruSeq Small RNA protocol (without size-selecting small 295 RNA) and sequenced on the HiSeq2

In the present study, we analyze the effect of knocking down LSG1 and KRas(V12D) overexpression in MRC5 cells in the transcriptome using Ampliseq RNA sequencig. We observed that shLSG1 induced a potent senescence response that is characterized by the activation of ER-Stress and cholesterol biosynthetic pathway Overall design: MRC5 were transfected with siRNA to knockdown the small GTPase LSG1. Total mRNA was extracted and expression profiles were analyzed.
