Qi Z, Bai N, Li Q, Pan S, Gu M. Dietary fishmeal replacement by Clostridium autoethanogenum protein meal influences the nutritional and sensory quality of turbot ( Scophthalmus maximus) via the TOR/AAR/AMPK pathways. ANIMAL NUTRITION (ZHONGGUO XU MU SHOU YI XUE HUI) 2024; 18:84-95. [PMID: 39056058 PMCID: PMC11269857 DOI: 10.1016/j.aninu.2024.04.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024]
Abstract
Clostridium autoethanogenum protein (CAP) is a promising protein source for aquaculture; however, how CAP influences fish quality is worth extensive research. We randomly allocated 630 turbot with initial body weights of about 180 g into 6 groups, with fishmeal-based control diet or diet with CAP replacing 15% (CAP15), 30% (CAP30), 45% (CAP45), 60% (CAP60), or 75% (CAP75) of fishmeal protein. After a 70-d feeding trial, the fillet yield (P = 0.015) and content of protein (P = 0.017), collagen (P < 0.001), hydroxyproline (P < 0.001), C20:5n-3 (P = 0.007), and ∑n-3/∑n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids ratio (P < 0.001) in turbot muscle was found to decrease linearly with increasing CAP. However, turbot fed CAP15 diet maintained these parameters (P > 0.05). By contrast, the muscle hardness increased linearly with increasing CAP (P = 0.004), accompanied by linear reduction of muscle fiber area (P = 0.003) and expression of myogenesis-related genes, including cathepsin D (ctsd P < 0.001) and muscle ring finger protein 1 (murf 1, P < 0.001). Phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt, P < 0.001), target of rapamycin (TOR, P = 0.001), eukaryotic initiation factor 4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1, P < 0.001), and ribosomal protein S6 (S6, P < 0.001) decreased linearly; however, phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK, P < 0.001), eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (eIF2α, P < 0.001), and the abundance of activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4, P < 0.001) increased with increasing CAP, suggesting that the TOR signaling pathway was inhibited, and the amino acid response (AAR) and AMPK pathways were activated. Additionally, expression of genes related to protein degradation, including myogenic factor 5 (myf 5, P < 0.001), myogenic differentiation (myod, P < 0.001), paired box 7 (pax 7, P < 0.001), and ctsd (P < 0.001), decreased linearly with increasing CAP. In conclusion, CAP could be used to replace up to 15% of fishmeal without negatively impacting turbot quality. However, higher levels of CAP decreased fillet yield, muscle protein content, and muscle fiber diameter while increasing muscle hardness, which could be attributed to the inhibition of the TOR pathway and activation of the AAR and AMPK pathways.

High-fat and high-carbohydrate diets increase bone fragility through TGF-β-dependent control of osteocyte function. JCI Insight 2024; 9:e175103.

Abstract
Obesity can increase the risk of bone fragility, even when bone mass is intact. This fragility stems from poor bone quality, potentially caused by deficiencies in bone matrix material properties. However, cellular and molecular mechanisms leading to obesity-related bone fragility are not fully understood. Using male mouse models of obesity, we discovered TGF-β signaling plays a critical role in mediating the effects of obesity on bone. High-carbohydrate and high-fat diets increase TGF-β signaling in osteocytes, which impairs their mitochondrial function, increases cellular senescence, and compromises perilacunar/canalicular remodeling and bone quality. By specifically inhibiting TGF-β signaling in mouse osteocytes, some of the negative effects of high-fat and high-carbohydrate diets on bones, including the lacunocanalicular network, perilacunar/canalicular remodeling, senescence, and mechanical properties such as yield stress, were mitigated. DMP1-Cre-mediated deletion of TGF-β receptor II also blunted adverse effects of high-fat and high-carbohydrate diets on energy balance and metabolism. These findings suggest osteocytes are key in controlling bone quality in response to high-fat and high-carbohydrate diets. Calibrating osteocyte function could mitigate bone fragility associated with metabolic diseases while reestablishing energy balance.

Exploring the dietary strategies of phenylalanine: Improving muscle nutraceutical quality as well as muscle glycogen and protein deposition in adult grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella). Food Chem X 2024; 22:101421. [PMID: 38756468 PMCID: PMC11096706 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101421] [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: 02/10/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Muscle is the main edible part of bony fish. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influences of phenylalanine (Phe) on muscle quality, amino acid composition, fatty acid composition, glucose metabolism, and protein deposition in adult grass carp. The diets at 2.30, 4.63, 7.51, 10.97, 13.53, and 17.07 g/kg Phe levels were fed for 9 weeks. The results manifested that Phe (10.97-13.53 g/kg) increased the pH of the fillets and decreased muscle cooking loss and lactic acid content; Phe (7.51-17.07 g/kg) improved the composition of the fillets in terms of flavor (free) amino acids, bound amino acids (especially EAA), and fatty acids (especially EPA and DHA); Phe (7.51-13.53 g/kg) increased muscle glycogen content (possibly related to the AMPK signaling pathway) and muscle protein deposition (possibly related to IGF-1/4EBP1/TOR and AKT/FOXOs signaling pathways). In conclusion, a diet with appropriate Phe levels could improve fillet quality.

Abstract
In most of the aquaculture selection programs, harvest body weight has been a preferred performance trait for improvement. Molecular interplay of genes linked to higher body weight is not elucidated in major carp species. The genetically improved rohu carp with 18% average genetic gain per generation with respect to harvest body weight is a promising candidate for studying genes' underlying performance traits. In the present study, muscle transcriptome sequencing of two groups of individuals, with significant difference in breeding value, belonging to the tenth generation of rohu carp was performed using the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. A total of 178 million paired-end raw reads were generated to give rise to 173 million reads after quality control and trimming. The genome-guided transcriptome assembly and differential gene expression produced 11,86,119 transcripts and 451 upregulated and 181 downregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between high-breeding value and low-breeding value (HB & LB) groups, respectively. Similarly, 39,158 high-quality coding SNPs were identified with the Ts/Tv ratio of 1.23. Out of a total of 17 qPCR-validated transcripts, eight were associated with cellular growth and proliferation and harbored 13 SNPs. The gene expression pattern was observed to be positively correlated with RNA-seq data for genes such as myogenic factor 6, titin isoform X11, IGF-1 like, acetyl-CoA, and thyroid receptor hormone beta. A total of 26 miRNA target interactions were also identified to be associated with significant DETs (p-value < 0.05). Genes such as Myo6, IGF-1-like, and acetyl-CoA linked to higher harvest body weight may serve as candidate genes in marker-assisted breeding and SNP array construction for genome-wide association studies and genomic selection.

Abstract
In order to investigate the mechanism of glucagon regulation of gluconeogenesis, primary hepatocytes of the Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) were incubated with synthesized glucagon, and methods based on inhibitors and gene overexpression were employed. The results indicated that glucagon promoted glucose production and increased the mRNA levels of glucagon receptor (gcgr), guanine nucleotide-binding protein Gs α subunit (gnas), adenylate cyclase 2 (adcy2), protein kinase A (pka), cAMP response element-binding protein 1 (creb1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1α (pgc-1α), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (pck1), and glucose-6-phosphatase (g6pc) in the hepatocytes. An inhibitor of GCGR decreased the mRNA expression of gcgr, gnas, adcy2, pka, creb1, pgc-1α, pck1, g6pc, the protein expression of phosphorylated CREB and PGC-1α, and glucose production. The overexpression of gcgr caused the opposite results. An inhibitor of PKA decreased the mRNA expression of pgc-1α, pck1, g6pc, the protein expression of phosphorylated-CREB, and glucose production in hepatocytes. A CREB-targeted inhibitor significantly decreased the stimulation by glucagon of the mRNA expression of creb1, pgc-1α, and gluconeogenic genes, and glucose production decreased accordingly. After incubating the hepatocytes with an inhibitor of PGC-1α, the glucagon-activated mRNA expression of pck1 and g6pc was significantly down-regulated. Together, these results demonstrate that glucagon promotes gluconeogenesis through the GCGR/PKA/CREB/PGC-1α pathway in the Japanese flounder.

Improving flesh quality of grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idellus) by completely replacing dietary soybean meal with yellow mealworm ( Tenebrio molitor). ANIMAL NUTRITION (ZHONGGUO XU MU SHOU YI XUE HUI) 2022; 12:375-387. [PMID: 36733784 PMCID: PMC9883186 DOI: 10.1016/j.aninu.2022.12.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 11/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
In order to find viable alternative protein sources for aquaculture, we evaluated the effect of partial or complete replacement of dietary soybean meal with yellow mealworm (TM) on the flesh quality of grass carp. In this study, 180 grass carp (511.85 ± 0.25 g) were fed 3 experimental diets in which 0% (CN), 30% (YM30) and 100% (YM100) dietary soybean meal was replaced by TM for 90 d. The results showed that growth performance, biological parameters and serum antioxidant capacity of grass carp were not affected by dietary TM (P > 0.05). Both muscle and whole body crude protein were obviously promoted with the increase of dietary TM (P < 0.05), and the concentration of heavy metal in muscle was not influenced (P > 0.05), indicating that food safety was not influenced by TM. Dietary TM improved muscle textural characteristics by elevating adhesiveness, springiness and chewiness in YM100 (P < 0.05). In addition, the muscle tenderness was significantly increased by declining the shear force (P < 0.05). The muscle fiber density in YM30 &YM100 and length of dark bands and sarcomeres in YM100 were obviously increased (P < 0.05). The expression of myf5, myog and myhc exhibited a significant upward trend with the increase of dietary TM (P < 0.05), which promoted fiber density, length of sarcomere and texture of grass carp muscle. According to the results of metabolomics, the arachidonate (ARA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) were notably elevated in YM30 and YM100, which indicated that the improvement of flesh quality of grass carp may contribute to the dietary TM influence on muscle lipid metabolism, especially the polyunsaturated fatty acids. In conclusion, TM can completely replace dietary soybean meal and improve the nutritional value of grass carp.

Abstract
Chicken is widely accepted by consumers because of its delicate taste and abundant animal protein. The rooster after castration (capon) is believed to show better flavor, however, the molecular changes of the underpinned metabolism after castration is not yet understood. In this study, we aimed to figure out the alternation of meat quality and underpinned molecular mechanism via transcriptomic profiling of liver, spleen and hypothalamus as targeted organs in response to the castration. We identified differential expressed genes and their enriched functions and pathways in these organs between capon and rooster samples through RNA-seq analysis. In the liver, the lipid metabolism with targeted FABP1gene was found significantly enriched, which may be as one of the factors contributing to increased fat deposition and thus better meat flavor in capons than roosters, as predicted by the significantly lower shear force in capons than in roosters in meat quality experiments. However, the ability to xenobiotic detoxification and excretion, vitamin metabolism, and antioxidative effect of hemoglobin evidenced of the capon may be compromised by the alternation of SULT, AOX1, CYP3A5, HBA1, HBBA, and HBAD. Besides, in both the spleen and hypothalamus, PTAFR, HPX, CTLA4, LAG3, ANPEP, CD24, ITGA2B, ITGB3, CD2, CD7, and BLB2 may play an important role in the immune system including function of platelet and T cell, development of monocyte/macrophage and B cell in capons as compared to roosters. In conclusion, our study sheds lights into the possible molecular mechanism of better meat flavor, fatty deposit, oxidative detoxification and immune response difference between capons and roosters.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of yellow mealworm meal (YM) replacing soybean meal (SBM) at different proportions (0%, 15%, 30% and 45%, referred as YM0, YM15, YM30 and YM45, respectively) on the flesh quality of Nile tilapia. A total of 360 fish (70.0 ± 0.12 g) were randomly divided into 4 groups (3 tanks per group). Fish were fed the experimental diet twice daily for 10 wk. The results showed that muscle protein content significantly decreased in YM30 and YM45, while the lipid content significantly decreased in YM45 (P < 0.05). The essential amino acids and flavor amino acids of the muscle were not affected by the YM substitution, while saturated fatty acid content decreased in YM30 and YM45 compared with YM0 (P < 0.05). Fillets in YM45 had higher hardness, gumminess, and a higher proportion of thin myofibers (≤100 μm, P < 0.05) than those in other groups. Further analysis revealed that apoptosis and atrophy related genes were up-regulated, while the muscle antioxidant capacity decreased significantly in YM45 (P < 0.05), which may be related to the high acid value in YM45 diet. Our findings indicated that YM could replace up to 30% SBM without substantially altering the flesh quality. When the replacement ratio increased to 45%, the flesh quality would change. Special attention should be paid to avoid feed rancidity which may affect the flesh quality of fish.

Abstract
In order to improve the glucose utilization capacity of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), responses to glucose overload between two strains (Y: breeding strain; W: wild strain) were compared at 0, 6, 12, and 24 h after glucose injection (1.67 g/kg). The data revealed that plasma glucose in the Y strain (<12 h) recovered faster than in the W strain (12 h), with the Y strain secreted more insulin within 6 h post-injection. Triglyceride (TG) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (VLDL-CH) content in the Y strain increased, peaking at 12 h, then decreased, whereas the W strain’s TG content was not affected and VLDL-CH content decreased. The hepatic and muscular fatty acid synthetase, liver x receptor-1, and sterol regulatory element-binding protein expressions were consistent with the TG content change. Both strains’ liver and muscle glycogen contents exhibited similar trends to that of the glycogen synthase gene—increasing, then declining, and peaking at 6 and 12 h. The expression levels of hepatic and muscular phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase in the Y strain increased, peaking at 12 h. In the W strain, they were suppressed and reached the minimum at 24 h. The mRNA levels of hepatic and muscular phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and glucose-6-phosphatase were enhanced and peaked at 24 h in both strains, hepatic isocitrate dehydrogenase-1, and α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex expression increased after declining, peaking at 12 and 24 h. Two genes in the W strain’s muscles showed a similar trend. Both strains’ transcriptome results identified seven common functional genes for resistance to hyperglycemia that were involved in the circadian rhythm pathway, which is a suggested key pathway for coping with hyperglycemia. Furthermore, 48 differential genes were identified between the two strains, and these genes were enriched in the TGF-beta and cell cycle signaling pathways, indicating that these pathways may be key factors affecting the differential responses to glucose overload. We conducted a comprehensive comparison of glucose overload molecular responses between two strains of M. salmoides, and the results can provide a promising strategy to improve the glucose utilization capacity of M. salmoides based on advantageous pre-existing traits.

Abstract
The effect and the mechanism of high glucose on fish muscle cells are not fully understood. In the present study, muscle cells of olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) were treated with high glucose (33 mM) in vitro. Cells were incubated in three kinds of medium containing 5 mM glucose, 5 mM glucose and 28 mM mannitol (as an isotonic contrast) or 33 mM glucose named the Control group, the Mannitol group and the high glucose (HG) group, respectively. Results showed that high glucose increased the ADP:ATP ratio and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), induced the release of cytochrome C (CytC) and cell apoptosis. High glucose also led to cell glycogen accumulation by increasing the glucose uptake ability and affecting the mRNA expressions of glycogen synthase and glycogen phosphorylase. Meanwhile, it activated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), inhibited the activity of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signalling pathway and the expressions of myogenic regulatory factors (MRF). The expressions of myostatin-1 (mstn-1) and E3 ubiquitin ligases including muscle RING-finger protein 1 (murf-1) and muscle atrophy F-box protein (mafbx) were also increased by the high glucose treatment. No difference was found between the Mannitol group and the Control group. These results demonstrate that high glucose has the effects of inducing apoptosis, increasing glycogen accumulation and inhibiting protein synthesis on muscle cells of olive flounder. The mitochondria-mediated apoptotic signalling pathway, AMPK and mTOR pathways participated in these biological effects.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to estimate the possible synergetic effects of the two levels of dietary dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) from different sources (US-imported and native) on the growth, health status, muscle texture, and muscle growth-related gene expression of juvenile grass carp. Four treatments of fish were fed with 4 isonitrogenous diets, namely, native DDGS20, native DDGS30, US-imported DDGS20, and US-imported DDGS30 for 60 days. The US-imported DDGS30 group showed the better growth and feed efficiency. Additionally, we observed a significant increase in hepatopancreatic total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in native DDGS groups. Moreover, raw muscle collagen increases considerably in the US-imported DDGS30 compared with the native DDGS30 group. In comparison with the native DDGS groups, the US-imported DDGS groups showed significantly decrease in all textural properties and fiber density, while increased fiber diameter. Dietary native DDGS inclusion significantly showed the upregulation of myog, myhc, and fgf6a expression in muscle, while the downregulation of the expression of myod and myf5. Overall, US-imported DDGS30 had a beneficial influence on growth via regulating genes involved in myogenesis and hypertrophy, the formation of collagen, but had negative impacts on antioxidant capacity and cooked muscle texture.

Taurine alleviates endoplasmic reticulum stress, inflammatory cytokine expression and mitochondrial oxidative stress induced by high glucose in the muscle cells of olive flounder (Paralichthysolivaceus). FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 123:358-368.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of taurine on endoplasmic reticulum stress, inflammatory cytokine expression and mitochondrial oxidative stress induced by high glucose in primary cultured muscle cells of olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Three experimental groups were designed as follows: muscle cells of olive flounder incubated with three kinds of medium containing 5 mM glucose (control), 33 mM glucose (HG) or 33 mM glucose + 10 mM taurine (HG + T), respectively. Results showed that taurine addition significantly alleviated the decreased activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the ratio of reduced to oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) induced by high glucose. The increase of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde content and cell apoptosis induced by high glucose were alleviated by taurine. Besides, gene expression of glucose-regulated protein 78, PKR-like ER kinase, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, interleukin-1β, interleukin-8, muscle atrophy F-box protein and muscle RING-finger protein 1 were significantly up-regulated in the HG group, and taurine addition decreased the expression of these genes. High glucose led to the swelling of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Meanwhile, the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and the release of cytochrome C from mitochondria induced by high glucose were suppressed by taurine addition. These results demonstrated that taurine alleviated ERS, inflammation and mitochondrial oxidative stress induced by high glucose in olive flounder muscle cells. The ROS production, NF-κB signaling pathway and mitochondria function were the main targets of the biological effects of taurine under high glucose condition.

Mol Med Rep 2021; 23:306. [PMID: 33649814 PMCID: PMC7974265 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2021.11945] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2020] [Accepted: 01/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Muscle atrophy, a side effect from administration of the anti‑inflammatory medication dexamethasone (DEX), is preventable by concomitant administration of the major monomeric constituent of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, 20(S)‑ginsenoside Rg3 (S‑Rg3). Putative S‑Rg3‑associated prevention of DEX‑induced muscle atrophy may involve S‑Rg3 mitigation of DEX‑induced mitochondrial dysfunction. In the present study, MTT assays revealed enhanced cell viability following S‑Rg3 treatment of DEX‑injured C2C12 myotubes. Subsequent PCR and western blotting results demonstrated S‑Rg3‑induced reduction of expression of muscle atrophy F‑box protein (atrogin‑1) and muscle RING‑finger protein‑1, proteins previously linked to muscle atrophy. Additionally, S‑Rg3 treatment of DEX‑injured myotubes led to aggregation of Rg3 monomers in cells and dose‑dependent increases in cellular mitochondrial basal respiratory oxygen consumption rate and intracellular ATP levels compared with their levels in untreated DEX‑injured myotubes. In addition, S‑Rg3 treatment significantly reversed DEX‑induced reductions of expression of key mitochondrial respiratory electron transport chain subunits of protein complexes II, III and V in DEX‑injured myotube cells. Furthermore, S‑Rg3 alleviation of mitochondrial dysfunction associated with DEX‑induced injury of C2C12 myotubes was linked to S‑Rg3‑associated decreases in both forkhead box O3 (FoxO3) protein expression and phosphorylation of AMP‑activated protein kinase (AMPK). Collectively, these results implicate S‑Rg3 modulation of signaling within the AMPK‑FoxO3 pathway as a putative mechanism underlying S‑Rg3 alleviation of DEX‑induced muscle atrophy.
