Transcriptomic and metabolomic data of goat ovarian and uterine tissues during sexual maturation.

The ovaries and uterus are crucial reproductive organs in mammals, and their coordinated development ensures the normal development of sexual maturity and reproductive capacity. This study aimed to comprehensively capture the different physiological stages of the goat's sexual maturation by selecting four specific time points. We collected samples of ovarian and uterine tissues from five female Jining Gray goats at each time point: after birth (D1), 2-month-old (M2), 4-month-old (M4), and 6-month-old (M6).

Identification and Characterization of circRNAs in Non-Lactating Dairy Goat Mammary Glands Reveal Their Regulatory Role in Mammary Cell Involution and Remodeling.

This study conducted transcriptome sequencing of goat-mammary-gland tissue at the late lactation (LL), dry period (DP), and late gestation (LG) stages to reveal the expression characteristics and molecular functions of circRNAs during mammary involution. A total of 11,756 circRNAs were identified in this study, of which 2528 circRNAs were expressed in all three stages. The number of exonic circRNAs was the largest, and the least identified circRNAs were antisense circRNAs.

Analysis of the main antioxidant enzymes in the roots of under NaCl stress by applying exogenous potassium (K).

Introduction: Salinization affects more than 25% of the world's arable land, and Ledeb (), the representative of plants, is widely grown in salinized soil. In contrast, less is known about the mechanism of potassium's antioxidative enzyme activity in preventing NaCl stress damage to plants.

Method: This study examined changes in root growth for at 0h, 48h, and 168h, performed antioxidant enzyme activity assays, transcriptome sequencing, and non-targeted metabolite analysis to understand changes in their roots as well as changes in the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT).

Analysis of the Antioxidant Mechanism of Roots under NaCl Stress Based on Physiology, Transcriptomic and Metabolomic.

There is a serious problem with soil salinization that affects the growth and development of plants. Ledeb (. ), as a halophyte, is widely used for afforestation in salinized soils.

Transcriptome Analysis of Goat Mammary Gland Tissue Reveals the Adaptive Strategies and Molecular Mechanisms of Lactation and Involution.

To understand how genes precisely regulate lactation physiological activity and the molecular genetic mechanisms underlying mammary gland involution, this study investigated the transcriptome characteristics of goat mammary gland tissues at the late gestation (LG), early lactation (EL), peak lactation (PL), late lactation (LL), dry period (DP), and involution (IN) stages. A total of 13,083 differentially expressed transcripts were identified by mutual comparison of mammary gland tissues at six developmental stages. Genes related to cell growth, apoptosis, immunity, nutrient transport, synthesis, and metabolism make adaptive transcriptional changes to meet the needs of mammary lactation.

Effects of Exogenous (K) Potassium Application on Plant Hormones in the Roots of under NaCl Stress.

Abiotic stresses such as salt stress seriously affect the growth and yield of plants. Lcdcb () is a widely cultivated halophyte in saline-alkali areas of the world. As an essential element for plant growth and development, K plays an irreplaceable role in improving the tolerance of plants to salt stress.

Characterization of long noncoding RNA in nonlactating goat mammary glands reveals their regulatory role in mammary cell involution and remodeling.

Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) can regulate mammary gland development and lactation physiological activities. However, the molecular genetic mechanisms of lncRNA in mammary gland involution and cell remodeling remain unclear. This work analyzed the expression characteristics and molecular functions of lncRNA in goat mammary gland tissue at the late lactation (LL), dry period (DP), and late gestation (LG) stages.

Effects of Exogenous Potassium (K) Application on the Antioxidant Enzymes Activities in Leaves of under NaCl Stress.

Saline soil is a worldwide distributed resource that seriously harms plants' growth and development. NaCl is the most widely distributed salt in saline soil. As a typical representative of halophytes, Lcdcb () is commonly grown in salinized soil, and halophytes have different abilities to retain more K under salt stress conditions.

Analysis of Amino Acids in the Roots of by Application of Exogenous Potassium (K) under NaCl Stress.

Soil salinization is one of the main environmental factors affecting plant growth worldwide. Ledeb. () is a halophyte representative that is widely grown in salinized soils.

Transcriptome and Metabonomic Analysis of Potassium (K+) Channels and Transporters in Response to NaCl Stress.

Potassium ion (K+) channels and transporters are key components of plant K+ absorption and transportation and play an important role in plant growth and development. This study revealed that K+ channels and transporters are involved in the salt tolerance molecular mechanism and metabolites of the halophyte representative plant Tamarix ramosissima (T. ramosissima) in response to NaCl stress, providing a theoretical basis for the mitigation of salt stress using halophytes.

High-Throughput Sequencing Reveals Transcriptome Signature of Early Liver Development in Goat Kids.

As a vital metabolic and immune organ in animals, the liver plays an important role in protein synthesis, detoxification, metabolism, and immune defense. The primary research purpose of this study was to reveal the effect of breast-feeding, weaning transition, and weaning on the gene expression profile in the goat kid liver and to elucidate the transcriptome-level signatures associated with liver metabolic adaptation. Therefore, transcriptome sequencing was performed on liver tissues, which was collected at 1 day (D1), 2 weeks (W2), 4 weeks (W4), 8 weeks (W8), and 12 weeks (W12) after birth in Laiwu black goats at five different time-points, with five goats at each time point.
