Abstract
To comprehensively provide insight into goose fatty liver formation, we performed an integrative analysis of the liver transcriptome, lipidome, and amino acid metabolome, as well as peripheral adipose tissue transcriptome analysis using samples collected from the overfed geese and normally fed geese. Transcriptome analysis showed that liver metabolism pathways were mainly enriched in glucolipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, inflammation response, and cell cycle; peripheral adipose tissue and the liver cooperatively regulated liver lipid accumulation during overfeeding. Liver lipidome patterns obviously changed after overfeeding, and 157 different lipids were yielded. In the liver amino acid metabolome, the level of Lys increased after overfeeding. In summary, this is the first study describing goose fatty liver formation from an integrative analysis of transcriptome, lipidome, and amino acid metabolome, which will provide a whole new dimension to understanding the mechanism of goose fatty liver formation.
