Ciliberti MG, Santillo A, Caroprese M, della Malva A, Natalello A, Bertino A, Albenzio M, Sevi A. Role of hazelnut skin supplementation on plasma antioxidant status and cytokine profile in growing lambs. Front Vet Sci 2024; 11:1340141. [PMID: 38362301 PMCID: PMC10867180 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2024.1340141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024] Open
Abstract
In this study, the effect of hazelnut skin dietary supplementation on antioxidant status and cytokine profile was evaluated in growing lambs. A total of 22 male lambs at the age of 2 months, balanced for their initial live weight (15.33 ± SD 1.79 kg), were selected and allocated into two experimental groups: the control group (CON) receiving a maize-barley-based concentrated diet, and the hazelnut group (HS) receiving supplementation with hazelnut skin (150 g/kg on the dry matter) as a maize substitute for the concentrate diet. The experiment lasted for 56 days. Peripheral blood was collected at 7, 35, and 56 days of the experiment. The free radical scavenging activity using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay, the total antioxidant capacity assay (TAC), the reactive oxygen species (ROS), and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) were determined in plasma. The secretion of IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 cytokines was also determined by ELISA. The DPPH was affected by the interaction between feeding strategy and time of sampling (p = 0.039) with a higher level of DPPH at 7 days in the HS group than the CON group. The time of sampling affected the levels of plasma TAC (p = 0.016), while the ROS/RNS levels showed a higher value in the HS group (p < 0.001), on average. The antioxidant/oxidant index, which combines the TAC and the ROS/RNS levels, was not affected by the inclusion of hazelnut skin in the diet (p = 0.394). The cytokine profile showed a lower IL-6 secretion at both 35 and 56 days than at 7 days, on average. Furthermore, the feeding treatment affected the IL-1β level, showing a lower level in the HS group than in the CON group on average. Lambs from the HS group had higher IL-10 plasma levels than the CON group at 7 days of the experiment. The present data highlight an antioxidant effect and a modulatory role in the cytokine profile of HS supplementation in growing lambs.

Gao C, Qi M, Zhou Y. Chestnut tannin extract modulates growth performance and fatty acid composition in finishing Tan lambs by regulating blood antioxidant capacity, rumen fermentation, and biohydrogenation. BMC Vet Res 2024; 20:23. [PMID: 38200507 PMCID: PMC10782739 DOI: 10.1186/s12917-023-03870-3] [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: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Tannins as plant extracts have emerged as promising and potential alternatives for antibiotics in modern livestock cultivation systems. This study investigates the effect of dietary chestnut tannin extract (CTE) in finishing Tan lambs. Twenty-seven male Tan lambs were randomly divided into three groups: (1) control group (CON; basal diet); (2) low-dose CTE group (LCTE; basal diet + 2 g/kg CTE, dry matter [DM] basis); (3) high-dose CTE group (HCTE; basal diet + 4 g/kg CTE, DM basis). The HCTE group exhibited markedly higher average daily gain (ADG) and DM intake than CON (P < 0.01). The ruminal total volatile fatty acid concentration increased linearly with increasing CTE supplementation (P < 0.01), while the opposite trend was observed for butyrate molar proportion (P < 0.01). Upon increasing CTE dosage, plasma glucose, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase content increased linearly (P < 0.05), whereas low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and urea nitrogen decreased linearly or quadratically (P < 0.05), respectively. A linear increase was also observed in ruminal t6 C18:1 and t9, c12 C18:2 proportions (P < 0.01), and plasma C18:2n-6 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids proportions with increased CTE supplementation (P < 0.01). In the longissimus dorsi muscle, the atherogenic index decreased linearly (P < 0.05), while c11 C18:1 and C20:5n-3 increased linearly (P < 0.05). Moreover, c9, t11 conjugated linoleic acids proportion increased in subcutaneous fat with CTE supplementation (P < 0.01). In conclusion, Dietary CTE enhances the ADG of finishing Tan lambs in a dose-dependent manner, modulates plasma metabolites and antioxidant capacity, and improves rumen fermentation and body fatty acid composition. These results provide a reference for the rational application of CTE in ruminant production.

The color of fresh pork: Consumers expectations, underlying farm-to-fork factors, myoglobin chemistry and contribution of proteomics to decipher the biochemical mechanisms. Meat Sci 2023; 206:109340. [PMID: 37708621 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2023.109340] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
The color of fresh pork is a crucial quality attribute that significantly influences consumer perception and purchase decisions. This review first explores consumer expectations and discrimination regarding pork color, as well as an overview of the underlying factors that, from farm-to-fork, contribute to its variation. Understanding the husbandry factors, peri- and post-mortem factors and consumer preferences is essential for the pork industry to meet market demands effectively. This review then delves into current knowledge of pork myoglobin chemistry, its modifications and pork discoloration. Pork myoglobin, which has certain peculiarities comparted to other meat species, plays a weak role in determining pork color, and a thorough understanding of the biochemical changes it undergoes is crucial to understand and improve color stability. Furthermore, the growing role of proteomics as a high-throughput approach and its application as a powerful research tool in meat research, mainly to decipher the biochemical mechanisms involved in pork color determination and identify protein biomarkers, are highlighted. Based on an integrative muscle biology approach, the available proteomics studies on pork color have enabled us to provide the first repertoire of pork color biomarkers, to shortlist and propose a list of proteins for evaluation, and to provide valuable insights into the interconnected biochemical processes implicated in pork color determination. By highlighting the contributions of proteomics in elucidating the biochemical mechanisms underlying pork color determination, the knowledge gained hold significant potential for the pork industry to effectively meet market demands, enhance product quality, and ensure consistent and appealing pork color.

In-depth characterization of the sarcoplasmic muscle proteome changes in lambs fed with hazelnut skin by-products: Relationships with meat color. J Proteomics 2023; 287:104997. [PMID: 37657717 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2023.104997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/03/2023]
Abstract
This study investigated the effect of agro-industrial hazelnut skin by-products supplementation on lamb meat color variation and the changes in the sarcoplasmic muscle proteome during post-mortem storage (0, 4 and 7 days). Gel-based proteomics and bioinformatics approaches were applied to better understand the potential role of feeding strategies in modulating the mechanisms underpinning meat discoloration and post-mortem changes during storage. Therefore, twenty-two Valle del Belice male lambs were randomly assigned to two dietary treatments: control (C), lambs fed with maize-barley diet, and hazelnut skin (H), lambs fed hazelnut skin by-product as maize partial replacer in the concentrate diet. Hazelnut dietary treatment led to better lamb meat color stability as evidenced by the lowest decrease in redness and saturation index values. Proteomics and bioinformatics results revealed changes in the abundance of 41 proteoforms, which were mainly involved in glycolytic processes, responses to oxidative stress, and immune and endocrine system. The proteins allowed revealing interconnected pathways to be behind meat color variation as a consequence of using hazelnut skin by-products to sustainable feed lamb. The proteins can be used as potential predictors of lamb meat color variation. Accordingly, the regression equations developed in this paper revealed triosephosphate isomerase (TPI1) as a reliable candidate biomarker of color stability in lamb meat. SIGNIFICANCE: The use of agro-industrial by-products in animal feeding can be a potential sustainable strategy to reduce the environmental impacts of the food production chain and consequently improve animal welfare and product quality. The inclusion of hazelnut skin by-products in the animal's diet, due to the high concentration of polyphenols, represents an effective strategy to improve the oxidative stability of meat, with significant implications on color. The use of proteomics combined with bioinformatics on the sarcoplasmic proteome is a powerful approach to decipher the underlying mechanism. Accordingly, this approach allowed in this trial a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in the post-mortem processes through the discovery of several biological pathways linked with lamb meat color variation. Glycolysis, followed by responses to oxidative stress, and other proteins involved in the immune and endocrine system were found as the major interconnected pathways that could act as potential predictors of lamb meat color stability. Candidate proteins biomarkers were further revealed in this study to be related with multiple meat color traits.

Lamri M, Della Malva A, Djenane D, Albenzio M, Gagaoua M. First insights into the dynamic protein changes in goat Semitendinosus muscle during the post-mortem period using high-throughput proteomics. Meat Sci 2023; 202:109207. [PMID: 37150067 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2023.109207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/09/2023]
Abstract
Proteomics plays a key and insightful role in meat research in the post-genomic era. This study aimed to unveil using a shotgun proteomics approach the temporal dynamic changes in early post-mortem proteome of goat Semitendinosus muscle. Therefore, the evolution and comparison of the muscle proteome over three post-mortem times (1, 8, and 24 h) was assessed. The temporal proteomics profiling quantified 748 proteins, from which 174 were differentially abundant (DAPs): n = 55 between 1 h versus 8 h, n = 52 between 8 h versus 24 h, and n = 154 between 1 h versus 24 h. The DAPs belong to myriad interconnected pathways. Binding, transport and calcium homeostasis, as well as muscle contraction and structure, exhibited an equivalent contribution during post-mortem, demonstrating their central role. Catalytic, metabolism and ATP metabolic process, and proteolysis were active pathways from the first hours of animal bleeding. Conversely, oxidative stress, response to hypoxia and cell redox homeostasis along chaperones and heat shock proteins accounted for the large proportion of the biochemical processes, more importantly after 8 h post-mortem. Overall, the conversion of muscle into meat is largely orchestrated by energy production as well as mitochondrial metabolism and homeostasis through calcium and permeability transition regulation. The study further evidenced the role of ribosomal proteins in goat post-mortem muscle, signifying that several proteins experiencing changes during storage, also undergo splicing modifications, which is for instance a mechanism known for mitochondrial proteins. Overall, temporal proteomics profiling of early post-mortem muscle proteome offers an unparalleled view of the sophisticated post-mortem biochemical and proteolytic events associated with goat meat quality determination.
