Immunolocalization of natriuretic peptides and their receptors in goat (Capra hircus) heart

Natriuretic peptides are structurally similar, but genetically distinct, hormones that participate in cardiovascular homeostasis by regulating blood and extracellular fluid volume and blood pressure. We investigated the distribution of natriuretic peptides and their receptors in goat (Capra hircus) heart tissue using the peroxidase-anti-peroxidase (PAP) immunohistochemical method. Strong staining of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) was observed in atrial cardiomyocytes, while strong staining for brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was observed in ventricular cardiomyocytes. Slightly stronger cytoplasmic C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) immunostaining was detected in the ventricles compared to the atria. Natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPR-A) immunoreactivity was more prominent in the atria, while natriuretic peptide receptor-B (NPR-B) immunoreactivity was stronger in the ventricles. Cytoplasmic natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C) immunoreactivity was observed in both the atria and ventricles, although staining was more prominent in the ventricles. ANP immunoreactivity ranged from weak to strong in endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells. Endothelial cells exhibited moderate to strong BNP immunoreactivity, while vascular smooth cells displayed weak to strong staining. Endothelial cells exhibited weak to strong cytoplasmic CNP immunoreactivity. Vascular smooth muscle cells were labeled moderately to strongly for CNP. Weak to strong cytoplasmic NPR-A immunoreactivity was found in the endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells stained weakly to moderately for NPR-A. Endothelial and vascular smooth cells exhibited weak to strong cytoplasmic NPR-B immunoreactivity. Moderate to strong NPR-C immunoreactivity was observed in the endothelial and smooth muscle cells. Small gender differences in the immunohistochemical distribution of natriuretic peptides and receptors were observed. Our findings suggest that endothelial cells, vascular smooth cells and cardiomyocytes express both natriuretic peptides and their receptors.     

Buck (Capra hircus) genes encode new members of the spermadhesin family

Spermadhesins are the major proteins of boar seminal plasma and form a group of polypeptides probably involved in reproduction. In previous work, a member of the spermadhesin family from buck seminal plasma, called BSFP, was characterized by mass spectrometry and N-terminal sequencing. The present study aimed to clone and characterize the BSFP gene and investigate its expression along the genital tract using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The cDNAs of the seminal vesicle, testis, epididymis, bulbourethral gland, and ductus deferens were prepared from a buck. Following 3'- and 5'-end amplifications using seminal vesicle cDNA, we cloned and sequenced four highly similar (97-98%) nucleotide sequences encoding spermadhesins, which were named Bodhesin-1(Bdh-1), Bdh-2, Bdh-3, and Bdh-4. All deduced amino acid sequences contained the CUB domain signature and were 49-52% similar to boar AWN. Among the four Bdh amino acid sequences, Bdh-2 was the most similar to the BSFP N-terminal fragment. By using real-time PCR, it was verified specific amplifications for all Bdh in the seminal vesicle, testis, epididymis, and bulbourethral gland, with the exception of Bdh-2 in epididymis. The amplicons had a melting temperature and size of approximately 78 degrees C and 130 bp, respectively. Bdh expression was higher in the seminal vesicle when compared to the other tissues. The present work confirms that goat is the fifth mammalian species, after pig, cattle, horse, and sheep, in which spermadhesin molecules are found. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on buck spermadhesin genes using molecular cloning and expression profile.     

Biochemical and genetic analysis of variant C of caprine αs2-casein (Capra hircus)

Two alleles, A and B, were previously described at the goat α_s2-casein locus. Isoelectric focusing allowed us to subdivide the former one in two new alleles, called A and C. Although α_s2-casein C cannot actually be distinguished from its A counterpart by starch or polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, it differs from the previous allele by a single substitution Lys (A)/Ile (C) at position 167, which was confirmed at the nucleotide level. The frequencies of the three α_s2-casein alleles A, B and C were estimated to be 0.85, 0.04 and 0.11 in the French dairy breeds ‘Alpine’ and ‘Saanen’.

Detection of myostatin gene MSTN in some goat breeds (Capra hircus)

Till now not information about myostatin MSTN gene in Egyptian goat breeds. Here we show more information about MSTN in some Egyptian goat breeds to enrich the database with new sequences for Egyptian goat breeds. Our conducted study focused on detection and identifying the MSTN gene as a candidate gene of the muscles growth trait in three goat breeds (Zaraibi, Baladi and Damascus). We found the similarity between the registered sequences with the accession numbers KY463684 for Zaraibi and KY463685 for Baladi and Chinese goat breeds of the MSTN gene deposited with international gene banks by up to 99% and some other species including sheep, cows and bull breeds with percentages of 95 to 97% and between 95 to 99%, respectively. There is also a correlation between the sequences of the registered pieces of Baladi with KY463686 and Damascus and Chinese breeds with KY441464 of MSTN deposited with international gene banks by up to 99% and some other species including sheep and bull breeds at a ratio of 99% for two pieces. Results demonstrated the deposited sequences of object are part of intron 1, exon 2 is fully sequenced with Zaraibi and Baladi breeds; the intron 1, exon 1 with Baladi breed; and the intron 2, part of exon 3 with Damascus breed. Therefore, the Egyptian goat breeds consider national wealth can be used to develop breeding and improvement programs which helps in more applicable scopes like biotechnology, genetic engineering and molecular biology with the help of bioinformatics tools.     

Mitochondrial DNA Reveal that Domestic Goat (Capra hircus) are Genetically Affected by Two Subspecies of Bezoar (Capra aegagurus)

This article describes the complete sequences of the mitochondrial DNA displacement loop (D-loop) region and cytochrome b gene from domestic goats in Laos (Laos native) and wild goat markhor (C. falconeri). The wild goat bezoar (Capra aegagrus) has been considered to be the strongest candidate for the ancestor of the domestic goats (C. hircus); however, there is not sufficient molecular data to verify the hypothesis at present. In phylogenetic analyses, two wild goats, the markhor and the ibex (C. ibex), appeared as an outgroup, while the bezoar was located in a cluster of domestic goats. Mitochondrial haplotypes of Laos natives revealed two distinct major clusters: one was the same as the bezoar, the second, unique to Laos natives. The topology and calibrated levels of sequence divergence suggests that these clusters might represent at least two different subspecies of ancestral bezoars.     

The mtDNA catalogue of all Portuguese autochthonous goat (Capra hircus) breeds: high diversity of female lineages at the western fringe of European distribution

Goat is believed to be the first true livestock domesticated and, apart from its historical importance, keeps playing an essential economic role in very diverse human societies. We have analysed the female gene pool of all Portuguese autochthonous breeds (Bravia, Serrana, Charnequeira, Serpentina and Algarvia) through the mtDNA HVI sequencing of 288 unrelated animals sampled throughout the country. All breeds proved to be extremely diverse (average haplotype diversity of 0.977), in contrast with the Portuguese peripheral geographic situation in the distribution range of the species. Moreover, observed genetic distances between breeds do not correlate with microgeography inside Portugal. These observations are consistent with recurrent refreshment of the breeding stock through the introduction of exotic animals. Fitting the new data into the still loosely defined female genetic pool landscape of goats, all Portuguese animals, one sample excepted (belonging to Bravia), are classified into haplogroup A and haplotype sharing is geographically very sparse, including a Far East match. Our results confirm that goats stand out among most of domesticates as exceptionally diverse and showing an unparalleled degree of mobility of animals (at least females) used for reproductive purposes.
