description After 7 hours post injection with 0.05 µg/g LHRH-A or saline, the liver of grass carp (1 year old) was collected and sequenced using Illumina Hiseq 4000.
abstract In this study, RNA sequencing was used to identify the hepatic gene expression profile in grass carp associated with luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist (LHRH-A) treatment. A total of 93,912,172 reads were generated by HiSeq 4000 sequencing platform. After filtering, 83,450,860 clean reads were mapped to the reference genome. By calculating the FPKM of genes, 1475 differentially expressed genes were identified. PPAR signaling pathway was enriched with upregulated genes in LHRH-A injection group showing the regulation of the lipid metabolism by LHRH-A. The expression of eight key genes in PPAR signaling pathway was confirmed by qPCR and the results suggested that ACSL4A, ACSL4B, ANGPTL4, LPL, RXRBA and SLC27A1B were significantly stimulated by LHRH-A injection. This investigation provides the evidence that LHRH-A could play a role in lipid metabolism.
