Expression data from postnatal piglet retina, investigating how sialyllactose benefit retina development and vision. Sus scrofa

Sialyllactose supplementation in pig milk replacer could promote cognitive functions in postnatal piglet behaviour experiment. There are 2 groups of 3-day-old postnatal piglets, feeding basal level and sialyllactose. After 35 days feeding, sialyllactose group showed better performance in behaviour experiment. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying the nervous system development and memory formation. Overall design: There are 2 treatment groups and 9 replicates for each group. The 2 treatment groups are control group feeding basal level and sialyllactose supplement group. Pig retina tissues were collecteded for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
