Omics multi-layers networks and identification of the key genes and miRNAs involved in fat storage and metabolism: systems biology approach

In spite of the importance of fat metabolism in different species, there has been little success dissecting the inreactome basis of fat storage. To better understand the molecular basis of fat metabolism, we study transcriptome profiling of abdominal fat between chicken with either good or poor genetic merit for meat quality. 6 samples total; 3 samples for Fat-H (high fat) vs 3 samples for Fat-L (low fat) differential non-coding RNA expression analysis.
