Study TitleLongitudinal Multi-omics Profiling Reveals Different Adaptation to Heat Stress in Genomically Divergent Lactating Sows
Study SummaryHeat stress (HS) poses a growing threat to health and productivity across mammals, a problem exacerbated by climate change. Simultaneously, the gut microbiome plays a crucial role in host adaptation to environmental stressors, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying microbiome-mediated heat tolerance remain poorly understood. Although multi-omics profiling has recently emerged as a powerful tool to explore host–microbiome interactions, no prior study, to our knowledge, has simultaneously integrated metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, and metabolomics in genetically characterized lactating mammals under HS conditions. Here, we present a time-resolved, multi-omics analysis of genomically divergent sows (heat-tolerant, TOL, and heat-sensitive, SEN) exposed to controlled HS, with the aim of identifying microbial and metabolic signatures of resilience. Metagenomic analyses revealed enrichment of specific taxa in TOL sows, including Treponema, F23-B02, and Bifidobacterium, with both enduring and time-specific effects. Metatranscriptomic profiling uncovered functional reprogramming in carbohydrate metabolism, membrane remodeling, and oxidative stress responses in TOL animals. These findings were further supported by metabolomic signatures indicating alterations in lipid turnover, amino acid metabolism, and redox homeostasis. Finally, integration of multi-omics data highlighted coordinated, time-specific microbial responses in TOL sows, reflecting robust host–microbiome adaptations to HS. By identifying candidate microbial biomarkers and conserved functional pathways, this study provides new insights into mammalian HS resilience and establishes a framework for cross-species investigations into heat resilience, stress physiology, and microbiome-targeted interventions.

Collection:

Collection ID:CO004541
Collection Summary:All samples were fecal, collected via fecal loop at 12:00 pm on sampling days, placed in individual sterile centrifuge tubes, and stored at −80 ◦C until further analyses. Sow milk was collected manually and immediately aliquot 1-2 mL into cryovials and stored at -80°C to maintain metabolite stability.
Sample Type:Feces, Milk
Storage Conditions:-80℃

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR004557
Treatment Summary:During the trial, sows and their litters were exposed to controlled cyclical heat conditions until weaning (mean: 21.3 ± 1.1 days of age). Environmental parameters included nocturnal temperatures of 28.90 ± 2.6 ◦C and 49.29 ± 12.10% relative humidity (RH), and diurnal temperatures of 30.23 ± 1.31 ◦C with 48.75 ± 11.28% RH [6]. All sows were provided ad libitum access to water and a lactation diet based primarily on corn and soybean meal. Metagenomic samples were collected on days 4, 8, and 14 of lactation, while metatranscriptomic sampling was performed on days 1 and 18.

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP004554
Sampleprep Summary:Fecal samples were thawed, homogenized, and extracted with methanol:water (7:3, v/v) containing internal stan- dards. Samples underwent shaking, incubation, centrifugation, protein freeze-out, and LC-MS analysis. 50 μL of milk sample and 300 μL of the extraction solution (ACN : Methanol = 1:4, V/V) containing internal standards were mixed in a 2 mL microcentrifuge tube. The sample was vortexed for 3 min and then centrifuged at 12000 rpm for 10 min (4 °C). 200 μL of the supernatant was collected and placed in -20 °C for 30 min followed by centrifugation at 12000 rpm for 3 min (4 °C). A 180 μL aliquot of the supernatant was used for LC-MS analysis.

Flow Gradient:Across the time course, component A starts high at 95% at 0.0 minutes, decreases to 80% at 2.0 minutes, drops further to 40% at 5.0 minutes, and reaches a minimum of 1% at both 6.0 and 7.5 minutes.

In contrast, component B begins at 5%, rises to 20% at 2.0 minutes, increases to 60% at 5.0 minutes, then peaks at 99% at both 6.0 and 7.5 minutes, before dropping sharply back to 5% at 7.6 and remaining at 5% at 10.0 minutes.
