Integrated multiomic profiling of tail adipose tissue highlights novel genes, lipids, and metabolites involved in tail fat deposition in sheep.
Article in BMC genomics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundTail fat is important for fat-tailed or fat-rumped sheep to survive in harsh environments. However, the molecular mechanism underlying tail fat deposition in sheep remains unclear. In this study, we comprehensively characterized the transcriptome, untargeted lipidome, and targeted metabolome profiles of the tail adipose tissues from Large-tailed Han sheep (long fat-tailed sheep) and Hu sheep (short fat-tailed sheep).
resultsWe identified 183 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), 55 differential lipids (DLs) and 17 differential metabolites (DMs) in the adipose tissues of the tails from Large-tailed Han and Hu sheep. Among the 183 DEGs selected (Q values ≤ 0.05 and│Log
conclusionThis study obtained profiles of the transcriptome, lipidome and metabolome of the tail fat tissues of sheep with long and short fat tails. The findings suggested that ELOVL7, UCP3 and ferroptosis, ECM-receptor interaction pathways contributed to the difference in fat deposition, and phosphatidylcholines biosynthesis and tricarboxylic acid cycle may affect lipid metabolism in sheep tails. The results enhance our understanding of the differences in fat deposition in sheep tail.
