摘要： Fatty acids (FAs) can serve as energy for poultry, maintain normal cell structure and function, and support a healthy immune system. Although the addition of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) to the diet has been extensively studied and reported, the mechanism of action of saturated fatty acids (SFAs) remains to be elucidated. We investigated the effect of 0.04% dietary myristic acid (MA) on slaughter performance, lipid components, tissue FAs, and the transcriptome profile in chickens. The results showed that dietary MA had no effect on slaughter performance (body weight, carcass weight, eviscerated weight, and pectoral muscle weight) (P P > 0.05). Dietary MA enrichment increased MA (P P < 0.001) and triglycerides (TGs) (P P < 0.01) levels in the pectoral muscle. The levels of palmitic acid, linoleic acid (LA), arachidonic acid (AA), SFAs, monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), and PUFAs were significantly higher (P P < 0.01) in the MA supplementation group compared to the control group. However, there were no significant differences in the ratios of PUFA/ SFA and n6/omega-3 (n3) between the two groups. The MA content was positively correlated with the contents of palmitic acid, LA, linolenic acid (ALA), n3, n6, SFAs, and unsaturated fatty acids (UFA). DHCR24, , which is known to be involved in steroid metabolism and cholesterol biosynthesis pathways, was found to be a significantly lower in the MA supplementation group compared to the control group (P P < 0.05, log2(fold change) =-0.85). Five overlapping co-expressed genes were identified at the intersection between the differential expressed genes and Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis- derived hub genes associated with MA phenotype, namely BHLHE40, MSL1, PLAGL1, SRSF4, , and ENSGALG00000026875. For the TG phenotype, a total of 28 genes were identified, including CHKA, KLF5, TGIF1, , etc. Both sets included the gene PLAGL1, , which has a negative correlation with the levels of MA and TG. This study provides valuable information to further understand the regulation of gene expression patterns by dietary supplementation with MA and examines at the molecular level the phenotypic changes induced by supplementation with MA.
