Takaragawa H, Wakayama M. Responses of leaf gas exchange and metabolites to drought stress in different organs of sugarcane and its closely related species Erianthus arundinaceus. PLANTA 2024; 260:90. [PMID: 39256219 PMCID: PMC11387454 DOI: 10.1007/s00425-024-04508-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024]
Abstract
MAIN CONCLUSION The high intrinsic water-use efficiency of Erianthus may be due to the low abaxial stomatal density and the accumulation of leaf metabolites such as betaine and gamma-aminobutyric acid. Sugarcane is an important crop that is widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Because drought is among the main impediments limiting sugarcane production in these regions, breeding of drought-tolerant sugarcane varieties is important for sustainable production. Erianthus arundinaceus, a species closely related to sugarcane, exhibits high intrinsic water-use efficiency (iWUE), the underlying mechanisms for which remain unknown. To improve the genetic base for conferring drought tolerance in sugarcane, in the present study, we performed a comprehensive comparative analysis of leaf gas exchange and metabolites in different organs of sugarcane and Erianthus under wet and dry soil-moisture conditions. Erianthus exhibited lower stomatal conductance under both conditions, which resulted in a higher iWUE than in sugarcane. Organ-specific metabolites showed gradations between continuous parts and organs, suggesting linkages between them. Cluster analysis of organ-specific metabolites revealed the effects of the species and treatments in the leaves. Principal component analysis of leaf metabolites confirmed a rough ordering of the factors affecting their accumulations. Compared to sugarcane leaf, Erianthus leaf accumulated more raffinose, betaine, glutamine, gamma-aminobutyric acid, and S-adenosylmethionine, which function as osmolytes and stress-response compounds, under both the conditions. Our extensive analyses reveal that the high iWUE of Erianthus may be due to the specific accumulation of such metabolites in the leaves, in addition to the low stomatal density on the abaxial side of leaves. The identification of drought-tolerance traits of Erianthus will benefit the generation of sugarcane varieties capable of withstanding drought stress.

[PMID: 39106697 PMCID: PMC11343058 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2024.104110] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2024] [Revised: 07/06/2024] [Accepted: 07/13/2024] [Indexed: 08/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Eggs are recognized for their rich nutrient profile, providing essential proteins and lipids with notable functional properties. This study examines the effects of incorporating Water Extract of Ampelopsis grossedentata (WEA) into poultry feed on egg quality, focusing on lipid content, choline, L-carnitine levels, and flavonoid compound deposition. Our results show significant increases in essential amino acids, flavonoids, and other bioactive compounds in eggs from WEA-treated hens, suggesting enhanced cardiovascular, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory benefits. Additionally, we observed elevated levels of choline and betaine in egg yolks, alongside increased L-carnitine content, which may contribute to improved lipid metabolism and reduced cardiovascular disease risk. KEGG pathway analysis revealed upregulation of metabolites involved in critical metabolic pathways, enhancing the nutritional profile of eggs. Flavonoid compounds, traditionally associated with plant-based foods, were also significantly increased, with notable levels of 7, 4'-dihydroxyflavone, daidzein, and glycitein identified in WEA-treated eggs, indicating potential health benefits. These findings suggest that WEA supplementation can produce functional eggs with improved nutritional quality, offering a novel approach to enhancing egg production and meeting the growing demand for functional foods. Further research is needed to fully understand the bioavailability and health impacts of these enriched compounds.

Genetic mutation in Escherichia coli genome during adaptation to the murine intestine is optimized for the host diet. mSystems 2024; 9:e0112323. [PMID: 38205998 PMCID: PMC10878103 DOI: 10.1128/msystems.01123-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Mammalian gut microbes colonize the intestinal tract of their host and adapt to establish a microbial ecosystem. The host diet changes the nutrient profile of the intestine and has a high impact on microbiota composition. Genetic mutations in Escherichia coli, a prevalent species in the human gut, allow for adaptation to the mammalian intestine, as reported in previous studies. However, the extent of colonization fitness in the intestine elevated by genetic mutation and the effects of diet change on these mutations in E. coli are still poorly known. Here, we show that notable mutations in sugar metabolism-related genes (gatC, araC, and malI) were detected in the E. coli K-12 genome just 2 weeks after colonization in the germ-free mouse intestine. In addition to elevated fitness by deletion of gatC, as previously reported, deletion of araC and malI also elevated E. coli fitness in the murine intestine in a host diet-dependent manner. In vitro cultures of medium containing nutrients abundant in the intestine (e.g., galactose, N-acetylglucosamine, and asparagine) also showed increased E. coli fitness after deletion of the genes-of-interest associated with their metabolism. Furthermore, the host diet was found to influence the developmental trajectory of gene mutations in E. coli. Taken together, we suggest that genetic mutations in E. coli are selected in response to the intestinal environment, which facilitates efficient utilization of nutrients abundant in the intestine under laboratory conditions. Our study offers some insight into the possible adaptation mechanisms of gut microbes.IMPORTANCEThe gut microbiota is closely associated with human health and is greatly impacted by the host diet. Bacteria such as Escherichia coli live in the gut all throughout the life of a human host and adapt to the intestinal environment. Adaptive mutations in E. coli are reported to enhance fitness in the mammalian intestine, but to what extent is still poorly known. It is also unknown whether the host diet affects what genes are mutated and to what extent fitness is affected. This study suggests that genetic mutations in the E. coli K-12 strain are selected in response to the intestinal environment and facilitate efficient utilization of abundant nutrients in the germ-free mouse intestine. Our study provides a better understanding of these intestinal adaptation mechanisms of gut microbes.

Using low-protein diet in egg production for win-win of productivity and environmental benefits should be prudent: Evidence from pilot test. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 912:169148. [PMID: 38092206 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.169148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
A shortage of feed protein resources restricts poultry productivity. Key strategies to alleviate this problem include improvements to the structure of the gut microbiota by the appropriate intake of high-quality protein, improvements to the comprehensive protein utilization rate, and reducing the consumption of protein raw materials. In addition, damage to the environment caused by nitrogen emissions needs to be reduced. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of dietary protein levels on laying performance, host metabolism, ovarian health, nitrogen emissions, and the gut microbial structure and function of laying hens. In total, 360 hens at the age of 38 weeks were randomly allotted four treatments. Each of the groups consisted of nine replicates, with 10 birds per replicate, used for 12 weeks of study. Dietary protein levels of the four groups were 13.85 %, 14.41 %, 15.63 %, and 16.30 %. Results revealed that, compared with the 13.85 % crude protein (CP) group, the 15.63 % CP group experienced significantly enhanced final body weight, average daily gain, egg production, and egg mass. Compared with the 16.30 % CP group, the other groups' serum concentrations of immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin M (IgM) were significantly reduced. Compared with the 16.30 % CP group, the 13.85 % and 15.63 % groups had increased CP utilization rates but reduced nitrogen emission rate, and daily per egg and per kilogram egg nitrogen emissions rose with increased dietary protein levels. Compared to the 13.85 % and 14.41 % CP groups, the 16.30 % CP group exhibited a significant increase in the expression of genes related to amino acids and carbohydrate metabolic pathways. According to the linear discriminant analysis effect size diagram, the predominant bacteria in the 15.63 % CP group (e.g., Subdoligranulum, and Ruminococcaceae_UCG-013) were significantly related to CP utilization. The results of this study emphasize that production performance is significantly reduced when protein levels are too low, whereas too high protein levels lead to gut microbiota imbalance and a reduction in the utilization efficiency of nutrients. Therefore, on the premise of ensuring the health of hens, the structure of the gut microbiota can be improved by appropriately reducing protein levels, which helps to balance the relationships among host health, productivity, resources, and the environment.

Abstract
As a food resource and nutrient, eggs play an important role in reducing malnutrition and improving the health status around the world. We studied the metabolite profile of three kinds of eggs using a widely-targeted metabolomics-based technique to better understand the difference in metabolites among chicken, duck, and quail eggs. We identified 617 metabolites, of which 303, 324, 302, 64, 81, and 80 differential metabolites were found by two group comparisons: quail egg yolk (QY) vs. quail egg albumen (QW), chicken egg yolk (HY) vs. chicken egg albumen (HW), duck egg yolk (DY) vs. duck egg albumen (DW), quail egg (Q) vs. duck egg (D)/chicken egg (H), and duck egg (D) vs. chicken egg (H), respectively. The Venn diagram showed that 147 metabolites were shared among the chicken, duck, and quail eggs. Additionally, the nucleotide and its derivates had the largest variations among the different types of eggs. This indicates that the flavor difference of the chicken eggs, duck eggs, and quail eggs may be related to their nucleotides and their derivates. The differential metabolites between egg yolk and albumen were primarily correlated with amino acid metabolism, protein metabolism, and immune performance. The discovery of these differential metabolites paves the way for further research on the nutritional potentials of various egg types.

Abstract
Egg yolk phospholipids (PLs) have been demonstrated to generate large quantities of lipid-derived odorants, especially the fatty note odorants. Recently, egg yolk PLs have been successfully used in chicken meat and fried foods to improve aroma. This review comprehensively summarizes the properties of egg yolk PLs as precursors of fatty note odorants, including their classes, extraction, identification, oxidation, decomposition and odorant formation, applications, considerations and future prospects in the food industry. Most likely, phosphatidylcholine (PC) is the most abundant class in egg yolk PLs, and PC is more efficient than phosphatidylethanolamine in generating fatty note odorants; moreover, the predominant polyunsaturated fatty acid is linoleic acid, and its corresponding predominant hydroperoxide is 9-hydroperoxy-10,12-octadecadienoic acid during autoxidation, which is the precursor of 2,4-decadienals and 2,4-nonadienals, the key fatty note odorants. Therefore, egg yolk PLs could be an ideal precursor of fatty note odorants for chicken meat and fried foods.

Abstract
Egg yolks contain abundant lipids, proteins, and minerals that provide not only essential nutrients for embryonic development but also cheap sources of nutrients for consumers worldwide. Previous composition analyses of egg yolks primarily focused on nutrients such as lipids and minerals. However, few studies have reported the effects of domestication and heating on yolk composition and characteristics. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of domestication and boiling on the metabolite contents of egg yolks via untargeted metabolomics using GC-MS and LC-MS. In this study, eggs were collected from Fenghua teals, captive mallards, and Shaoxing ducks. Twelve duck eggs (half raw and half cooked) were randomly selected from each variety, and the egg yolks were separated for metabolic profiling. The analysis identified 1205 compounds in the egg yolks. Domestication generated more differential metabolites than boiling, which indicated that the changes in the metabolome of duck egg yolk caused by domestication were greater than those caused by boiling. In a comparative analysis of domestic and mallard ducks, 48 overlapping differential metabolites were discovered. Among them, nine metabolites were upregulated in domesticated ducks, including monoolein, emodin, daidzein, genistein, and glycitein, which may be involved in lipid metabolism; some of them may also act as phytoestrogens (flavonoids). Another 39 metabolites, including imethylethanolamine, harmalan, mannitol, nornicotine, linoleic acid, diphenylamine, proline betaine, alloxanthin, and resolvin d1, were downregulated by domestication and were linked to immunity, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties. Furthermore, four overlapping differential metabolites that included amino acids and dipeptides were discovered in paired comparisons of the raw and boiled samples. Our findings provided new insights into the molecular response of duck domestication and supported the use of metabolomics to examine the impact of boiling on the composition of egg yolks.

Abstract
Boiling has important effects on the texture of chicken eggs, but its effects on egg nutrients have not been systematically investigated. In this study, changes in the metabolites of egg yolks boiled under different heating intensities were quantified and compared by metabolomic analysis. A total of 797 metabolites were identified, and the abundance of 162 metabolites changed significantly after boiling. The significant reduction of L-lysine and D-fructose suggested that Maillard reactions occurred in over-boiled egg yolks. Egg yolk endogenous enzymes might induce a partial hydrolysis of proteins and phospholipids during the warm-up period of boiling, as the abundance of dipeptides, lysophospholipids, and free fatty acids was significantly increased in boiled egg yolks. Boiling increased the detectable abundance of fat-soluble vitamins, riboflavin, and biotin, possibly by altering the complex structure of protein-lipid-lipophilic compounds or denaturing vitamin-binding proteins. The results of metabolomic analyses provide important information for understanding the nutritional changes of egg yolk boiled under different heating intensities.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2022; 102:4647-4656. [PMID: 35174889 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.11825] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2021] [Revised: 02/04/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Eggs are essential food sources as they provide low cost and high nutritional content of animal protein. The preservation period is one of the apparent factors affecting egg quality. Previous studies based on traditional detection techniques demonstrated that storage period would significantly influence egg weight, eggshell weight, albumen height, haugh unit (HU) and albumen viscosity. Herein, we employed non-targeted metabolome technology to reveal the comprehensive changes in metabolite composition in duck eggs under the impacts of storage period. RESULTS The results showed that the primary metabolites in the yolk of duck eggs are amino acids, carbohydrates and lipids. In contrast, the primary metabolites in the albumen are amino acids, benzene and indoles. We screened 43 and 16 different metabolites, respectively, in the albumen and yolk of duck eggs with different preservation periods. In addition, kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) enrichment was performed, and the results showed that various nutrients were degraded in the egg after preservation, thus affecting the quality of duck eggs. These nutrients included amino acids, fatty acids, nucleotides, sugars and vitamins; meanwhile, ammonia, biogenic amines and some flavor substances were produced, affecting the quality of the eggs. CONCLUSION Ourfindings can contribute to a holistic understanding of metabolite composition changes in duck eggs during deterioration in storage. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

[PMID: 34893990 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.11717] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2021] [Revised: 11/11/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The extensive consumption of eggs and their utilization as an ingredient in food products globally offer excellent potential for increasing dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intake. Thus far, research involving dietary focused on changes in their physical properties after boiling, protein denaturation, storage stability, and other characteristics. However, minimal reports are available regarding the evaluation of nutritional changes. Therefore, this study comprehensively investigated the impact of cooking on the nutritional quality and volatile compound profile of ordinary and omega-3 eggs. RESULTS Compared with ordinary eggs, those enriched with omega-3 fatty acids contained higher proportions of total omega-3 PUFAs and α-tocopherol. However, no significant difference was evident between the amino acid compositions of the two types of eggs. Omega-3 eggs boiled for 20 min at 75 °C showed higher levels of omega-3 PUFAs, total tocopherol, and essential amino acids while increasing the heating time and temperature reduced these nutrients. Heat treatment significantly decreased the ketones and alcohol content while increasing the hydrocarbons level. The overall variations in the metabolic response due to cooking temperature were evidenced by the multiple metabolic associations and clustering on the principal component analysis (PCA) plane and heat map. CONCLUSION The findings provided useful information for ensuring quality retention in eggs, especially those enriched with omega-3. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Discriminant Analysis of the Nutritional Components between Organic Eggs and Conventional Eggs: A 1H NMR-Based Metabolomics Study. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27093008. [PMID: 35566355 PMCID: PMC9102658 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27093008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2022] [Revised: 04/14/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The difference of nutrient composition between organic eggs and conventional eggs has always been a concern of people. In this study, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique combined with multivariate statistical analyses was conducted to identify the metabolite different in egg yolk and egg white in order to reveal the nutritional components information between organic and conventional eggs. The results showed that the nutrient content and composition characteristics were different between organic and conventional eggs, among which the content of glucose, putrescine, amino acids and their derivatives were found higher in the organic eggs yolk, while phospholipids were demonstrated higher in conventional eggs yolk. Organic acid, alcohol, amine, choline and amino acids were higher in conventional eggs white, but glucose and lactate in organic egg were higher. Our study demonstrated that there are more nutritive components and higher nutritional value in organic eggs than conventional eggs, especially for the growth and development of infants and young children, and conventional eggs have more advantages in promoting lipid metabolism, preventing fatty liver, and reducing serum cholesterol. Eggs have important nutritional value to human body, and these two kinds of eggs can be selected according to the actual nutrient needs.

Abstract
Egg yolk contains abundant meat precursors, but its odor is quite different from meat aroma. In this study, the lipids in egg yolk were partly removed by acetone or totally removed by chloroform/methanol, and lutein was removed simultaneously by the solvents. Then, the samples were heated, and the volatiles and aroma profiles were analyzed. The results showed that chicken meat aroma and meat aroma were imitated successfully through the removal of neutral lipids and lutein (acetone-treated) and total lipids and lutein (chloroform/methanol-treated) egg yolk samples, respectively. Finally, additional lutein and tert-butylhydroquinone were employed for validating the inhibiting effects of lutein on lipid oxidation and Maillard reaction, and the results demonstrated that it was lutein rather than lipids or their degradation products that determined the flavor formation. These findings push forward the mechanisms for the formation of meat flavor and provide insights for future manufacturing of meat aroma.

Abstract
The inhibitory activity of the expired egg-white carbon steel (CS) extract in HCl solution was studied in this article. The extract was examined using FT-IR, and the surface was examined using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). Weight loss techniques at various temperatures were used to examine corrosion investigations (298, 308, 318, and 328 K), concentrations (100, 200, 400, and 800 mg. L−1) of extracts, and electrochemical measurements (potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at 25°C and different concentrations. Results. Results obtained through EIS demonstrated a maximal inhibition efficiency of 90% at an inhibitor concentration of 800 mg. L−1. Moreover, the findings of the potentiodynamic polarization indicated that egg-white extract was a mixed type of inhibitor and slowed down both cathodic and anodic reactions. For weight loss analysis, an inhibitory potency (89, 83, 77, and 71%) at various temperatures (298, 308, 318, and 328 K) was demonstrated, respectively. It indicates that the temperature rise contributes to a decrease in the resistance of the carbon steel. The adsorption of the expired egg-white extract was spontaneous with physisorption and chemisorption according to the Langmuir isotherm model, according to adsorption isotherm studies.

Abstract
To create high-quality eggs by using different breed and feed materials, we investigated free amino acid contents and taste sensor traits using two chicken breeds (Rhode Island Red; RIR and Australorp; AUS) fed two feeds (mixed and fermented feeds). Two-way ANOVA revealed significant breed and feed main and interaction effects on albumen bitterness and a significant interaction effect on yolk bitterness. Albumen from RIR fed mixed feed and AUS fed fermented feed was higher bitterness, whereas yolk from those groups was lower bitterness. Significant breed effects were detected in four albumen amino acid traits (His, Met, Ile, and Lys) and a yolk His, whereas significant feed effects were found in 15 albumen amino acid traits (Asp, Glu, Ser, His, Gly, Thr, Ala, Tyr, Val, Met, Trp, Ile, Leu, Lys, and Pro) and a yolk cystine trait. Compared to albumen amino acids, yolk amino acids had limited effects by breed and feed. The present results suggest that genetic and nutritional factors can alter not only amino acid contents but also sensor values of bitterness, indicating that selecting the combination of breed and feed enable us to make amino acids enriched and taste added designer eggs in future.
