Title |
Evaluation of the metabolic effects of insect meal from Tenebrio molitor L. in the liver of growing pigs by transcriptomics |
Organism |
Sus scrofa |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by array
|
Summary |
The hypothesis was tested that insect meal (IM) as protein source influences intermediary metabolism of growing pigs. To test this, 5-week-old crossbreed pigs were randomly assigned to 3 groups of 10 pigs each with similar body weights (BW) and fed isonitrogenous diets either without (CON) or with 5 % IM (IM5) or 10 % IM (IM10) from Tenebrio molitor L. for 4 weeks and liver was analyzed using transcriptomics. Transcriptomics of the liver revealed a total of 166 transcripts differentially expressed between IM10 and CON.

|
Overall design |
For microarray analysis, n = 6 RNA samples each of the group CON, group IM5 and group IM10 were used for hybridization to the Affymetrix GeneChip Porcine Gene 1.0 Sense Target array.
