摘要: Avian reproductive behavior is regulated through the neuroendocrine system. The transition from laying to brooding is strictly controlled by the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. Cross talk on the HPG axis relies on the circulatory system, where the dynamics of serum proteins can be observed during different reproductive phases. Some canonical hormones, such as prolactin and luteinizing hormone, play important roles in the transition through reproductive phases. However, little is known at the whole-proteome level. To discover novel serum proteins, we employed isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification to assay the serum proteome during different reproductive phases in chicken. We identified a total of 1,235 proteins from chicken serum; 239 of these proteins showed differential expression between the laying and brooding stages, including a low concentration of steroid metabolism-related proteins and a high concentration of calcium signaling-related proteins (fold change >= 1.5 or <= 0.66; P < 0.05). Pathway analysis and protein-protein interaction networks predicated the difference in follicle development between the brooding stage and laying stages and were related to the 14-3-3 protein family, which is associated with oocyte meiosis and maturation. Together, these results provided a proteomics foundation for investigating the dynamic changes taking place in the circulatory system during reproductive phase transition, and also uncovered new insights regarding follicle development that underlie the avian reproductive cycle.
