Understanding the response to endurance exercise using a systems biology approach: combining blood metabolomics, transcriptomics and miRNomics in horses.

Abstract: Endurance exercise in horses requires adaptive processes involving physiological, biochemical, and cognitive-behavioral responses in an attempt to regain homeostasis. We hypothesized that the identification of the relationships between blood metabolome, transcriptome, and miRNome during endurance exercise in horses could provide significant insights into the molecular response to endurance exercise. For this reason, the serum metabolome and whole-blood transcriptome and miRNome data were obtained from ten horses before and after a 160 km endurance competition. We obtained a global regulatory network based on 11 unique metabolites, 263 metabolic genes and 5 miRNAs whose expression was significantly altered at T1 (post- endurance competition) relative to T0 (baseline, pre-endurance competition). This network provided new insights into the cross talk between the distinct molecular pathways (e.g. energy and oxygen sensing, oxidative stress, and inflammation) that were not detectable when analyzing single metabolites or transcripts alone. Single metabolites and transcripts were carrying out multiple roles and thus sharing several biochemical pathways. Using a regulatory impact factor metric analysis, this regulatory network was further confirmed at the transcription factor and miRNA levels. In an extended cohort of 31 independent animals, multiple factor analysis confirmed the strong associations between lactate, methylene derivatives, miR-21-5p, miR-16-5p, let-7 family and genes that coded proteins involved in metabolic reactions primarily related to energy, ubiquitin proteasome and lipopolysaccharide immune responses after the endurance competition. Multiple factor analysis also identified potential biomarkers at T0 for an increased likelihood for failure to finish an endurance competition. To the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to provide a comprehensive and integrated overview of the metabolome, transcriptome, and miRNome co-regulatory networks that may have a key role in regulating the metabolic and immune response to endurance exercise in horses.

This study investigates the physiological response of horses to endurance exercise by examining metabolites, genes and microRNAs in the blood. The researchers analyzed blood samples from ten horses before and after a 160 km endurance race, identifying significant changes which provided insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying the response to such intense exercise.

Experimental Design and Findings

  • The researchers gathered blood samples from ten horses before and after they participated in a 160 km endurance competition. The main intention was to compare the blood components before and after the endurance competition in an attempt to identify how the body reacts to such intense exercise.
  • By looking at the metabolome (the total set of metabolites), transcriptome (the total set of gene transcripts), and microRNA (miRNome) of the horses’ blood samples, the team was able to understand the changes and regulatory networks that took place.
  • They found that eleven unique metabolites, 263 metabolic genes, and five microRNAs showed notable changes from before to after the endurance competition. These changes pointed to significant alterations in certain molecular pathways including energy and oxygen sensing, oxidative stress response, and inflammation.

Insights from the Data

  • The team observed that individual metabolites and gene transcripts were part of several biochemical processes, showing that the body’s response to endurance exercise is complex and involves multiple shared pathways.
  • By using a method known as regulatory impact factor metric analysis, they were able to further validate these regulatory networks at the transcription factor and microRNA levels.
  • More extended study with 31 additional animals confirmed strong associations between specific blood components (such as lactate, methylene derivatives, specific microRNAs, and genes coding proteins involved in metabolic reactions) and the body’s response to the endurance competition.

Implications and Potential Biomarkers

  • The researchers identified possible biomarkers at the baseline (before the competition) that could predict a higher likelihood of not finishing the endurance competition, which could help in preparing horses for such events in the future and improving their performance.
  • This research is the first to offer an integrated view of the metabolome, transcriptome, and miRNome networks in response to endurance exercise in horses. It provides valuable insights for further understanding and potentially enhancing the performance of horses in endurance events.
