Screening for transcriptomic associations with Swine Inflammation and Necrosis Syndrome by Katharina Gerhards, Sabrina Becker, Josef Kuehling, Mirjam Lechner, Hermann Willems, Robert Ringseis, Gerald Reiner

“…For this purpose, the three to five least affected (SINS-low) and most SINS affected (SINS-high) 3d-old piglets, each of three boars, a relatively SINS stable Duroc boar (DU), a relatively stable Pietrain boar (PI+) and a highly susceptible Pietrain boar (PI-) were selected from 27 litters of mixed semen to minimize environmental effects. Results A genome-wide expression experiment revealed a huge set of differentially expressed genes that are involved in vasculitis, inflammation and necrosis, keratinization and erythrocyte epitopes. …”
