Hou Q, Gao T, Liu R, Ma C, Zhang W. S-nitrosoproteomics profiling elucidates the regulatory mechanism of S-nitrosylation on beef quality. Meat Sci 2024; 216:109580. [PMID: 38941777 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2024.109580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to quantitively profile the S-nitrosylation in beef semimembranosus (SM) with different treatments (nitric oxide donor or nitric oxide synthase inhibitor) by applying iodoTMT-based nitrosoproteomics. Results showed that 2096 S-nitrosylated cysteine sites in 368 proteins were detected in beef SM. Besides, differential SNO-modified proteins were screened, some of which were involved in crucial biochemical pathways, including calcium-releasing-related proteins, energy metabolic enzymes, myofibrils, and cytoskeletal proteins. GO analysis indicated that differential proteins were localized in a wide range of cellular compartments, such as cytoplasm, organelle, and mitochondrion, providing a prerequisite for S-nitrosylation exerting broad roles in post-mortem muscles. Furthermore, KEGG analysis validated that these proteins participated in the regulation of diverse post-mortem metabolic processes, especially glycolysis. To conclude, changes of S-nitrosylation levels in post-mortem muscles could impact the structure and function of crucial muscle proteins, which lead to different levels of muscle metabolism and ultimately affect beef quality.

New findings on post-mortem chicken quality changes: The ROS-influenced MAPK-JNK signaling pathway affects chicken quality by regulating muscle cell apoptosis. Food Chem 2024; 459:140298. [PMID: 39018616 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140298] [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: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024]
Abstract
Research conducted previously has demonstrated that apoptosis significantly influences the chicken quality. While ROS are acknowledged as significant activators of apoptosis, the precise mechanism by which they influence muscle cell apoptosis in the post-mortem remains unclear. In this study, chicken samples were treated with rosemarinic acid and H2O2 to induce varying ROS levels, and the ROS-triggered apoptosis mechanism in chicken muscle cells in post-mortem was analyzed. The TUNEL results revealed that elevated ROS levels in chicken were associated with a greater degree of muscle cell apoptosis. Western-blot results suggested that sarcoplasmic ROS could initiate apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway by activating the MAPK-JNK signaling pathway. Moreover, TEM and shear force results demonstrated that muscle cell apoptosis initiates myofiber fragmentation and structural damage to sarcomeres, ultimately reducing chicken tenderness. This study enhances our understanding of post-mortem muscle cell apoptosis, providing valuable insights for regulating chicken quality.

J Food Sci 2024; 89:4162-4177. [PMID: 38795377 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.17131] [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: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/27/2024]
Abstract
This paper aimed to investigate the effects of ultrasound-assisted L-lysine treatment on meat quality and myofibrillar proteins (MPs) properties of pork longissimus dorsi during postmortem aging. The results revealed that the L-lysine (Lys) and/or ultrasound treatment significantly increased (p < 0.05) the water-holding capacity and tenderness of the pork during postmortem aging, while the ultrasound-assisted Lys treatment had the lowest cooking loss, pressurization loss, Warner-Bratzler shear force, and hardness. In addition, L-lysine and/or ultrasound treatment increased (p < 0.05) pH value, T21, and myofibrillar fragmentation index, while the ultrasound-assisted Lys treatment had the highest value. Meanwhile, the protein solubility was increased with Lys and/or ultrasound treatment during postmortem aging, and ultrasound-assisted Lys treatment had the highest solubility, reaching 88.19%, 92.98%, and 91.73% at 0, 1, and 3 days, respectively. The result of protein conformational characteristics showed that Lys and/or ultrasound treatment caused the unfolding of the α-helix structure, resulting in the exposure of more hydrophobic amino acids and buried sulfhydryl groups, ultimately enhancing MPs solubility. In summary, ultrasound-assisted Lys treatment altered the structure of MPs, resulting in the enhancement of the water-holding capacity and tenderness of the pork. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This study showed that ultrasound-assisted L-lysine (Lys) treatment could enhance the water-holding capacity and tenderness of pork during postmortem aging. The results might provide a reference for the application of ultrasound-assisted Lys treatment on the improvement of pork meat quality. To facilitate practical applications in production, the development of medium and large-sized ultrasound equipment for conducting small-scale and pilot experiments is crucial for future research.

S-nitrosothiols as nitrite alternatives: Effects on residual nitrite, lipid oxidation, volatile profile, and cured color of restructured cooked ham. Meat Sci 2024; 209:109397.

Abstract
This study evaluated the use of the S-nitrosothiols, S-nitroso-N-acetylcysteine (NAC-SNO) and S-nitroso-N-acetylcysteine ethyl ester (NACET-SNO), at different concentrations (25-300 mg nitrite equivalent - NEq/kg) as sodium nitrite substitutes in restructured cooked hams. The pH value and instrumental cured color were not affected by the type or amount of curing agent used. Products with 25 and 50 mg/kg ingoing nitrite had lower thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance values than those with equimolar amounts of S-nitrosothiols. Products with >150 mg NEq/kg of S-nitrosothiols had residual nitrite similar to 50 mg/kg nitrite, and this resulted in the same volatile compound profile as nitrite added in equimolar amounts. A 300 mg NEq/kg of S-nitrosothiols was required to obtain a similar and minimally stable cured pink color perception as sliced samples with 50-150 mg/kg added nitrite. The results obtained reinforce the great potential of both alternative curing agents in the complete replacement of nitrite by equimolar amounts in restructured cooked products; however, differences in cured color stability should be considered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pork is an important source of animal protein in many countries. Subtle physiochemical changes occur during pork postmortem aging. The changes of apoptosis and autophagy in pork at 6 h to 72 h after slaughter were studied to provide evidence for pork quality. METHODS In this article, morphological changes of postmortem pork was observed through Hematoxylin-eosin staining, apoptotic nuclei were observed by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling assay, protein related to apoptosis and autophagy expressions were tested by western blot and LC3 level were expressed according to immunofluorescence assay. RESULTS In this study, we found the occurrence of apoptosis in postmortem pork, and the process was characterized by nucleus condensation and fragmentation, formation of apoptotic bodies, increase in apoptosis-related Bax/Bcl-2 levels, and activation of caspases. Autophagy reached its peak between 24 and 48 h after slaughter, accompanied by the formation of autophagosomes on the cell membrane and expression of autophagy-related proteins beclin-1, P62, LC3-I, LC3-II, and ATG5. CONCLUSION Obvious apoptosis was observed at 12 h and autophagy reached its peak at 48 h. The present work provides the evidence for the occurrence of apoptosis and autophagy during postmortem aging of pork. In conclusion, the apoptosis and autophagy of muscle cells discovered in this study have important implications for pork in the meat industry.

Ma C, Zhang W, Zhang J, Du T. Modification-Specific Proteomic Analysis Reveals Cysteine S-Nitrosylation Mediated the Effect of Preslaughter Transport Stress on Pork Quality Development. JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY 2023; 71:20260-20273.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effects of preslaughter transport stress on protein S-nitrosylation levels and S-nitrosylated proteome in post-mortem pork longissimus thoracis (LT) muscle. Pigs (N= 16) were randomly divided into 3 h transport (high-stress group, HS) and 3 h transport followed by 3 h resting treatments (low-stress control group, LS). Results demonstrated that high transport stress levels induced nitric oxide (NO) overproduction by promoting NO synthase (NOS) activity and neuronal NOS (nNOS) expression, which thereby notably increased protein S-nitrosylation levels in post-mortem muscle (p < 0.05). Proteomic analysis indicated that 133 S-nitrosylation-modified cysteines belonging to 85 proteins were significantly differential, of which 101 cysteines of 63 proteins were higher in the HS group (p < 0.05). Differential proteins including cytoskeletal and calcium-handling proteins, glycolytic enzymes, and oxidoreductase were mainly involved in the regulation of muscle contraction and energy metabolism that might together mediate meat quality development. Overall, this study provided direct evidence for changes in S-nitrosylation levels and proteome in post-mortem muscle in response to preslaughter transport stress and revealed the potential impact of S-nitrosylated proteins on meat quality.

Abstract
Muscle foods are highly perishable products that require the use of additives to inhibit lipid and protein oxidation and/or the growth of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. The reduction or replacement of additives used in the food industry is a current trend that requires the support of active-packaging technology to overcome novel challenges in muscle-food preservation. Several nano-sized active substances incorporated in the polymeric matrix of muscle-food packaging were discussed (nanocarriers and nanoparticles of essential oils, metal oxide, extracts, enzymes, bioactive peptides, surfactants, and bacteriophages). In addition, the extension of the shelf life and the inhibitory effects of oxidation and microbial growth obtained during storage were also extensively revised. The use of active packaging in muscle foods to inhibit oxidation and microbial growth is an alternative in the development of clean-label meat and meat products. Although the studies presented serve as a basis for future research, it is important to emphasize the importance of carrying out detailed studies of the possible migration of potentially toxic additives, incorporated in active packaging developed for muscle foods under different storage conditions.

Abstract
The effects of ultrasound (US) on myoglobin modification, nitrous pigment formation, color, and total and free sulfhydryl content in nitrite-free pork meat batter were assessed. Five treatments were elaborated: Control (without US); TUS10'12 and TUS20'12 (sonication at 25 kHz, at 12 °C for 10 and 20 min, respectively); TUS10'18 and TUS20'18 (sonication at 25 kHz, at 18 °C for 10 and 20 min, respectively). Sonication for 20 min at 12 °C increased OxyMb and DeoxyMb pigments while reducing MetMb levels. This US condition also yielded higher red color indices and lower yellow color indices. Moreover, TUS20'12 exhibited enhanced nitrous pigment formation and decreased FerrylMb and free sulfhydryl (SH) values, indicating reduced oxidation in OxyMb and DeoxyMb pigments. In conclusion, the findings demonstrate that US can impart a cured color to nitrite-free meat products.

Abstract
For exploring the effect of protein S-nitrosylation on the energy metabolism of early postmortem pork (within 24 h postmortem), the six Longissimus thoracis (LT) muscle homogenates were treated with nitric oxide donor (NOR-3, (±)-(E)-4-Ethyl-2-(E)-hydroxyimino-5-nitro-3-hexenamide), nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor (L-NAME, Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride) and control (0.1 M K2HPO4, pH 7.4) in the in vitro buffer system for 24 h, respectively. The western blotting result showed that NOR-3 treatment led to a greater level of protein S-nitrosylation (p < 0.05). However, S-nitrosylation levels had no significant difference between L-NAME and control groups (p > 0.05). In addition, results showed that 16 significantly differential energy metabolites were identified by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) and clearly separated among three groups in the principal component analysis. Four pathways (glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, purine metabolism and pentose phosphate pathway) related to energy metabolism were significantly influenced by different levels of protein S-nitrosylation. Furthermore, the correlation analysis of metabolites demonstrated that metabolites were in dynamic equilibrium with each other. These results indicate that protein S-nitrosylation can participate in and regulate energy metabolism postmortem pork through glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.

Abstract
In the rapidly evolving field of food science, nanotechnology-based biosensors are one of the most intriguing techniques for tracking meat freshness. Purine derivatives, especially hypoxanthine and xanthine, are important signs of food going bad, especially in meat and meat products. This article compares the analytical performance parameters of traditional biosensor techniques and nanotechnology-based biosensor techniques that can be used to find purine derivatives in meat samples. In the introduction, we discussed the significance of purine metabolisms as analytes in the field of food science. Traditional methods of analysis and biosensors based on nanotechnology were also briefly explained. A comprehensive section of conventional and nanotechnology-based biosensing techniques is covered in detail, along with their analytical performance parameters (selectivity, sensitivity, linearity, and detection limit) in meat samples. Furthermore, the comparison of the methods above was thoroughly explained. In the last part, the pros and cons of the methods and the future of the nanotechnology-based biosensors that have been created are discussed.

Abstract
Nitrite has been widely used in meat products for its abilities including color formation, antimicrobial properties, flavor formation and preventing lipid oxidation. However, the possible generation of N-nitrosamines through reaction of nitrite with secondary amines arises many concerns in the usage of nitrite. For a long time, nitrite substitution is unsettled issue in the meat industry. Many attempts have been tried, however, the alternative solutions are often ephemeral and palliative. In recent years, bacterial nitric oxide synthase (bNOS) has received attention for its critical roles, especially in reddening meat products. This comprehensive background study summarizes the application of bNOS in colorizing meat products, its functions in bacteria, and methods of regulating the bNOS pathway. Based on this information, some strategies for promoting the nitric oxide yield for effectively substituting nitrite are presented, such as changing the environmental conditions for bacterial survival and adding substrate. Thus, bNOS is a promising nitrite substitute for color formation, and further research on its other roles in meat needs to be carried out to obtain the complete picture.

Abstract
This research aimed to explore the effects of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor (L-NAME) on mitochondria apoptosis in postmortem Gannan yak (Bos grunniens) longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle and to explore its effect on meat quality further. The Gannan yak meat samples were treated with the control group (0.9% NaCl) and L-NAME (20, 60, and 100 mM) for 24 h and then stored for 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 days at 4°C. NOS activity and NO content were investigated, and the parameters of mitochondrial apoptosis of the postmortem Gannan yak meat were determined. Meanwhile, the meat quality such as the centrifugation loss, meat color, and myofibril fragmentation index (MFI) was evaluated. The results indicated that after treatment with L-NAME, NOS activity and NO content decreased, causing mitochondrial membrane damage, Bax protein, and Cyt-c levels increased, and resulted in increased activities of caspase-9 and -3, promoting the occurrence of mitochondrial apoptosis. Furthermore, it increased the tenderness and water retention of Gannan yak meat. The results indicated that NOS inhibitor played a regulatory role in postmortem Gannan yak meat quality by regulating mitochondria apoptosis during postmortem aging. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The meat's tenderness is often considered the most important factor affecting consumers' willingness to repurchase. The relationship of caspases and MFI suggested that L-NAME played a regulatory role in postmortem Gannan yak meat quality by regulating mitochondria apoptosis during postmortem aging. This study provides valuable information for the development of the Gannan yak economy in Tibetan areas.

Abstract
The objective of the present study was to investigate the regulatory mechanism of protein S-nitrosylation on early postmortem beef muscle apoptosis. Beef semimembranosus (SM) muscles at 45 min postmortem were treated with nitric oxide (NO) donor, control (NaCl solution), or nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor for 24 h at 4 °C. Bcl-2 expression and mitochondrial membrane potential were significantly increased by the NO donor treatment at 6 h postmortem, while the NOS inhibitor group exhibited a lower Bcl-2 level and mitochondrial membrane potential in comparison with the control (P < 0.05). The cytochrome c expression analysis highlighted that NO donor incubation repressed cytochrome c release from mitochondria to the cytoplasm. Further, S-nitrosylation levels of caspase-3 and caspase-9 were elevated after incubation with the NO donor (P < 0.05), leading to decreased caspase-3 and caspase-9 activities (P < 0.05). The aforementioned findings imply that protein S-nitrosylation mediates postmortem apoptosis of beef SM through the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.

Abstract
Meat tenderness is an important quality trait critical to consumer acceptance, and determines satisfaction, repeat purchase and willingness-to-pay premium prices. Recent advances in tenderness research from a variety of perspectives are presented. Our understanding of molecular factors influencing tenderization are discussed in relation to glycolysis, calcium release, protease activation, apoptosis and heat shock proteins, the use of proteomic analysis for monitoring changes, proteomic biomarkers and oxidative/nitrosative stress. Each of these structural, metabolic and molecular determinants of meat tenderness are then discussed in greater detail in relation to animal variation, postmortem influences, and changes during cooking, with a focus on recent advances. Innovations in postmortem technologies and enzymes for meat tenderization are discussed including their potential commercial application. Continued success of the meat industry relies on ongoing advances in our understanding, and in industry innovation. The recent advances in fundamental and applied research on meat tenderness in relation to the various sectors of the supply chain will enable such innovation.

Abstract
In order to explore the effect of slurry ice on myofibrillar protein of Pseudosciaena crocea, the changes in myofibrillar protein and muscle microstructure during storage were studied with crushed ice as a control. During the storage period, the rate of decrease in myofibrillar protein content, Ca2+-ATPase activity, and total sulfhydryl groups in the slurry ice group was lower than in the control group (p < .05). There was a significant linear correlation between the hydrophobicity and the storage time (R crushed ice (4℃) = 0.9881, R slurry ice (4℃) = 0.9878, R slurry ice (-1℃) = 0.9674), and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) soluble peptide content was lower than in the control group at the same time. Slurry ice (-1℃) was optimal in maintaining protein content in P. crocea; the arrangement of myofibrils in P. crocea treated by slurry ice was compact and the gaps were small. Slurry ice can delay the denaturation and degradation of fish myofibrillar protein and maintain its quality.

Abstract
Following a century of major discoveries on the mechanisms determining meat colour and tenderness using traditional scientific methods, further research into complex and interactive factors contributing to variations in meat quality is increasingly being based on data-driven "omics" approaches such as proteomics. Using two recent meta-analyses of proteomics studies on beef colour and tenderness, this review examines how knowledge of the mechanisms and factors underlying variations in these meat qualities can be both confirmed and extended by data-driven approaches. While proteomics seems to overlook some sources of variations in beef toughness, it highlights the role of post-mortem energy metabolism in setting the conditions for development of meat colour and tenderness, and also points to the complex interplay of energy metabolism, calcium regulation and mitochondrial metabolism. In using proteomics as a future tool for explaining variations in meat quality, the need for confirmation by further hypothesis-driven experimental studies of post-hoc explanations of why certain proteins are biomarkers of beef quality in data-driven studies is emphasised.

Abstract
Meat quality plays an important role in the purchase decision of consumers, affecting producers and retailers. The formation mechanisms determining meat quality are intricate, as several endogenous and exogenous factors contribute during antemortem and postmortem periods. Abundant research has been performed on meat quality; however, unexpected variation in meat quality remains an issue in the meat industry. Protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) regulate structures and functions of proteins in living tissues, and recent reports confirmed their importance in meat quality. The objective of this review was to provide a summary of the research on the effects of PTMs on meat quality. The effects of four common PTMs, namely, protein phosphorylation, acetylation, S-nitrosylation, and ubiquitination, on meat quality were discussed, with emphasis on the effects of protein phosphorylation on meat tenderness, color, and water holding capacity. The mechanisms and factors that may affect the function of protein phosphorylation are also discussed. The current research confirms that meat quality traits are regulated by multiple PTMs. Cross talk between different PTMs and interactions of PTMs with postmortem biochemical processes need to be explored to improve our understanding on factors affecting meat quality.

Abstract
In the field of agricultural and food processing, high power ultrasound (HPUS) is recognized as a green, physical and non-thermal technology in improving the safety and quality of foods. The functional properties of food proteins are responsible for texture, yield and organoleptic of food products which are the theoretical basis for food processing optimizing. HPUS treatment could provide the possibility for creating novel functional properties of new foods with desirable properties due to the modification of protein structure. In this article, an overview of the previous studies and recent progress of the relationship between structure modification and functional properties of food proteins using the HPUS technique were presented. The research results revealed that HPUS could significantly affect the conformation and structure of protein due to the cavitation effect resulting in the improvement of solubility, interfacial, viscosity, gelation and flavor binding properties of proteins. During meat processing, HPUS can modify the structure and thereby improve the functional properties of myofibrillar protein (MP), leading to the quality enhancement, low fat and/or salt products development and the shelf life extending. In view of this review, the recent findings of applications of HPUS in the production of meat products based on the modification of MP including curing, freezing/thawing and thermal processing have been summarized. Finally, the future considerations were presented in order to facilitate the progress of HPUS in meat industry and provided the suggestions based on the advanced protein modification by HPUS for the commercial utilization of HPUS in producing the innovative meat products.

Abstract
This study was the first attempt to explore the effect of protein S-nitrosylation on the progress of apoptosis in postmortem beef semimembranosus muscle (SM). Five beef SM were incubated with S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO, nitric oxide donor), control, or Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (l-NAME, nitric oxide synthase inhibitor). Results suggest that compared to the control, more chromatin condensation, nucleusfragmentation, apoptoticbody formation, and mitochondrialswelling were observed in the l-NAME group while these apoptosis-related morphological changes were retarded in the GSNO group. Notably, there were fewer apoptotic nuclei in the GSNO group and more apoptotic nuclei in the l-NAME group compared to the control (P < 0.05). Additionally, caspase-3 and -9 activities and caspase-3 activation were greatly decreased by GSNO treatment and increased by l-NAME treatment (P < 0.05). The morphological and biochemical results indicate that protein S-nitrosylation could play a negative regulatory role in beef apoptosis during postmortem aging.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of µ-calpain oxidation on Coregonus peled myofibrillar protein degradation. In the present study, a hydroxyl radical oxidation system was selected to investigate oxidative modification on µ-calpain activity and its degradation on C. peled myofibrillar protein. When subjected to oxidation, the carbonyl content of µ-calpain significantly increased with the increasing of oxidation levels, and oxidation modification promoted the µ-calpain activity. Incubation of C. peled myofibrillar protein with oxidized µ-calpain resulted in the enhanced degradation of myosin heavy chains, actin, and troponin T, but the degradation of desmin at higher levels of oxidation was slightly inhibited, based on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and western blotting. This study suggests that oxidation treatment of µ-calpain could accelerate myofibrillar proteolysis through regulating the enzyme activity during postmortem aging. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Endogenous proteases, especially µ-calpain, are reported to be involved in fish softening during early postmortem storage, which is critical to muscle quality. The cysteine residues of proteins are particularly sensitive to oxidation. The investigation of the effect of oxidation on µ-calpain (a cysteine protease) activity allows for the monitoring of its role in the postmortem proteolysis of fish myofibrils and the associated softening of fish meat, in an attempt to minimize this softening.

Comparison of activity, expression and S-nitrosylation of glycolytic enzymes between pale, soft and exudative and red, firm and non-exudative pork during post-mortem aging. Food Chem 2020; 314:126203. [PMID: 31978718 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2020.126203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2019] [Revised: 12/09/2019] [Accepted: 01/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
The activity, expression and S-nitrosylation of glycogen phosphorylase (GP), phosphofructokinase (PFK) and pyruvate kinase (PK) was compared between pale, soft and exudative (PSE) and red, firm and non-exudative (RFN) pork. The nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity of RFN pork was higher than PSE pork (P < 0.05). Glycogen and lactic acid content were significantly different between PSE and RFN samples at 1 h postmortem (P < 0.05). Compared to PSE pork, RFN pork had lower activities and higher S-nitrosylation levels of GP, PFK and PK (P < 0.05). Moreover, GP expression in RFN pork was lower (P < 0.05) while no significant differences of PFK and PK expression were observed between these two groups. These data suggest that protein S-nitrosylation can presumably regulate glycolysis by modulating glycolytic enzymes activities and then regulate the development of PSE pork.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to identify the protein indicator of freshness of Coregonus peled using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/TOF MS) methods. Samples were obtained prior to (control group) and 2, 4, 6, and 8 days after refrigerated storage for quality and proteomics analysis. Three proteins were found to have significant differential abundance in sample groups during the refrigerated storage, including l-lactate dehydrogenase, adenylate kinase isoenzyme 1, and myosin heavy chain, which were associated with freshness changes of C. peled. The freshness of C. peled fish during the refrigerated storage can be differentiated from the comparison of the specific proteins. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The changes of food quality pose not only the relative economical loses but also the potential implications on consumer's health. Proteomics can represent a powerful tool to explore potential biomarkers that may be related to meat quality defects. The identification of key protein biomarkers linked to freshness of Coregonus peled allows to monitor the response of the food matrix during storage and try to minimizes these defects.

Abstract
The research was performed to investigate the difference of activity, expression, and S-nitrosylation of calcium transfer proteins between pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) and red, firm, and non-exudative (RFN) pork. Seven PSE and seven RFN pork longissimus thoracis (LT) muscles were chosen according to pH and L* at 1 h post-mortem and identified by drip loss at 24 h. The nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) expression showed a significant difference between two groups ( p < 0.05). PSE meat had a considerably higher sarcoplasmic calcium concentration compared to RFN meat at 1 h post-mortem aging ( p < 0.05). In PSE meat, the expression of ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1) and sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 1 (SERCA1) was lower than that in RFN meat, while the relative S-nitrosylation level of RyR1 and SERCA1 was higher ( p < 0.05). In addition, a lower activity of SERCA was detected in PSE meat compared to RFN meat ( p < 0.05). Those results indicate that S-nitrosylation of RyR1 and SERCA1 can putatively play a crucial part in regulating calcium homeostasis. A high level of RyR1 and SERCA1 S-nitrosylation can induce the imbalance of calcium in cytoplasm, leading to accelerated pH decline and the development of PSE meat.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the nature of modification of myofibrillar proteins by nitric oxide (NO) and the extent to which S-nitrosylation alters their susceptibility to calpain-1 proteolysis. Isolated myofibrils from porcine semimembranosus muscle were incubated with the NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) at 0, 20, 50, 250, 1000 µM for 30 min at 37 °C and then incubated with purified calpain-1. GSNO treatment decreased the thiol content of myofibrillar proteins and increased their intensity and amount of S-nitrosylation. GSNO caused the formation of proteins cross-linkage through intermolecular disulfide. More desmin and titin (T2, the degraded fragment of original titin) were degraded by calpain-1 when myofibrils were incubated with 1000 µM GSNO. Incubation with 250 and 1000 µM GSNO suppressed calpain-1-catalyzed cleavage of troponin-T. The data suggest that NO could change the redox state of myofibrillar proteins and subsequently affect the extent of proteolysis by calpain-1 in a protein-dependent manner.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the characteristics, metabolic pathways and cellular functions of S-nitrosylated proteins from pork postmortem muscle using bioinformatics analysis. The results showed that S-nitrosylated proteins had a broad range of molecular weight and pI value and were mainly located in the functional region of secondary structure. The motif revealed the lysine (K) positioned at -5, -7, +1 and +5 through the S-nitrosocysteine while "C-X-X-C" was identified as the motif for non-S-nitrosylation-modified cysteine. The proteins were widely localized in cell compartments and mostly belonged to enzymes participating in the metabolic process. Glycolysis was the most significant pathways of S-nitrosylated proteins in postmortem muscle. The cell death of muscle cells was predicted to be inhibited by S-nitrosylation with the potential influence on the apoptosis. Those identified pathways and cellular functions of S-nitrosylation are proposed to have a profound influence on meat quality and should be highly regarded.

Abstract
Electrochemistry is providing a variety of sensors at an extremely rapid pace. Many of these sensors offer powerful attributes like a multitude of platforms like voltammetry, impedimetry, amperometry and conductometry, as well as sensor-related gains like high sensitivity, selectivity and low cost. It is natural that their applications to food, especially meat freshness determination, are also increasing. Novel methods for rapidly assessing meat freshness are vital for meeting the increasing worldwide demand for meat products. Therefore, we present a short and succinct review of the most promising electrochemical sensor types, including those based on conductive polymers, nanocomposites and metal nanoparticles. From the wide range of sensors that have been designed to detect microbial pathogens and chemical degradation, we have covered a basic snapshot to yield an impression of recent gains in the research genre of meat freshness.

ASIAN-AUSTRALASIAN JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCES 2018; 32:865-873. [PMID: 30381751 PMCID: PMC6498086 DOI: 10.5713/ajas.18.0354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2018] [Accepted: 09/13/2018] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Objective The study was designed to investigate the effects of restraint method, restraint duration, and body weight on stress-linked hormones (corticosterone, adrenaline, and noradrenaline), blood biochemical (namely glucose and lactate), and the meat quality in broiler chickens. Methods A total of 120 male broiler chickens (Cobb 500) were assigned to a 2×3×2 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design using two restraint methods (shackle and cone), three durations of restraint (10, 30, and 60 s), and two categories of live body weight (1.8±0.1 kg as lightweight and 2.8±0.1 kg as heavyweight). Results Irrespective of the duration of restraint and body weight, the coned chickens were found to have lower plasma corticosterone (p<0.01), lactate (p<0.001), lower meat drip loss (p<0.01), cooking loss (p<0.05), and higher blood loss (p<0.05) compared with their shackled counterparts. The duration of restraint had significant effects on the meat initial pH (p<0.05), ultimate pH (p<0.05), and yellowness (p<0.01). The lightweight broilers exhibited higher (p< 0.001) blood loss and lower (p<0.05) cooking loss compared to the heavyweight broilers, regardless of the restraint method used and the duration of restraint. However, the interaction between the restraint method, duration of restraint, and body weight contributed to differences in pre-slaughter stress and meat quality. Therefore, the interaction between the restraint method and the duration of restraint affected the meat shear force, lightness (L*) and redness (a*). Conclusion The duration of restraint and body weight undoubtedly affect stress responses and meat quality of broiler chickens. Regardless of the duration of restraint and body weight, the cone restraint resulted in notably lower stress, lower meat water loss, and higher blood loss compared to shackling. Overall, the findings of this study showed that restraint method, duration of restraint, and body weight may affect the stress response and meat quality parameters in broilers and should be considered independently or interactively in future studies.
