Rumen and Ileum Transcriptome Profiles from Calves Fed Different Milk Replacers

Transcriptome profiles of rumen and ileal tissues from preweaned dairy calves. The dataset was generated to investigate the impact of milk replacer fat composition and butyric and caproic acid content on gene expression related to gut development. It was authored by Koki Nishihara and last updated on 2026-05-28.

Use Cases

• Analyze gene expression changes in rumen tissue based on dietary fat composition described in the study
• Compare transcriptome profiles between rumen and ileum based on the described tissue samples
• Investigate the minimal impact of specific fatty acids on pathways related to cell proliferation and apoptosis mentioned in the description

Strengths

• Dataset is 5.0 MB in size, indicating a focused and manageable scope.
• Data is provided in an XLSX format, which is widely accessible for analysis.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
