Role of Intramuscular Connective Tissue in Water Holding Capacity of Porcine Muscles. Foods 2022; 11:foods11233835. [PMID: 36496643 PMCID: PMC9738884 DOI: 10.3390/foods11233835] [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: 09/18/2022] [Revised: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study evaluated the influence of intramuscular connective tissue (IMCT) on structural shrinkage and water loss during cooking. Longissimus thoracis (LT), semimembranosus (SM) and semitendinosus (ST) muscles were cut and boiled for 30 min in boiling water, followed by detection of water holding capacity (WHC), tenderness, fiber volume shrinkage and protein denaturation. RESULTS Compared with LT and SM, ST had the best WHC and lowest WBSF and area shrinkage ratio. The mobility of immobilized water (T22) was key to holding the water of meat. ST contained the highest content of total and heat-soluble collagen. On the contrary, ST showed the lowest content of cross-links and decorin, which indicate the IMCT strength of ST is weaker than the other two. The heat-soluble collagen is positively correlated to T22. CONCLUSIONS The shrinkage of heat-insoluble IMCT on WHC and WBSF may partly depend on the structural strength changes of IMCT components rather than solely caused by quantitative changes of IMCT.

Abstract
This study evaluated the texture of hog maw and the degradation of Types I and III collagen in the intramuscular connective tissue (IMCT) of hog maw at different cooking temperatures (75-95°C) and times (50-130 min). The cooking loss, shear force, collagen content, collagen solubility, and IMCT strength of hog maw cooked in water baths were measured. The instrumental texture profile analysis showed that the brittleness, springiness, chewiness and hardness of the cooked hog maw significantly increased with the increase of cooking temperature, while the hardness, springiness and chewiness increased first and then decreased with increasing cooking time. Cooking loss exhibited a 38% increase between the raw meat and meat cooked at 95°C. The collagen solubility significantly increased from 5.5 mg/g for raw meat to 8.6 mg/g for meat cooked at 95°C, accompanied by decreases in the shear force and IMCT strength associated with the increase in cooking temperature and time. These results show that the texture and collagen characteristics of hog maw are dramatically affected by the cooking temperature and time. Sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis and immunofluorescence staining further showed that collagen degradation occurred after cooking, and the degradation of Type I collagen was higher than that of Type III collagen. These results indicated that the degradation of Type I collagen was mainly responsible for the sensory and textural improvements of the cooked hog maw.

Abstract
Remodeling of extracellular matrix (ECM), including regulation of proteoglycans in skeletal muscle can be important for physiological adaptation to exercise. To investigate the effects of acute and long-term exercise on the expression of ECM-related genes and proteoglycans in particular, 26 middle-aged, sedentary men underwent a 12 weeks supervised endurance and strength training intervention and two acute, 45 min bicycle tests (70% VO2max), one at baseline and one after 12 weeks of training. Total gene expression in biopsies from m. vastus lateralis was measured with deep mRNA sequencing. After 45 min of bicycling approximately 550 gene transcripts were >50% upregulated. Of these, 28 genes (5%) were directly related to ECM. In response to long-term exercise of 12 weeks 289 genes exhibited enhanced expression (>50%) and 20% of them were ECM related. Further analyses of proteoglycan mRNA expression revealed that more than half of the proteoglycans expressed in muscle were significantly enhanced after 12 weeks intervention. The proteoglycan serglycin (SRGN) has not been studied in skeletal muscle and was one of few proteoglycans that showed increased expression after acute (2.2-fold, P < 0.001) as well as long-term exercise (1.4-fold, P < 0.001). Cultured, primary human skeletal muscle cells expressed and secreted SRGN. When the expression of SRGN was knocked down, the expression and secretion of serpin E1 (SERPINE1) increased. In conclusion, acute and especially long-term exercise promotes enhanced expression of several ECM components and proteoglycans. SRGN is a novel exercise-regulated proteoglycan in skeletal muscle with a potential role in exercise adaptation.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle formation during development and the adult mammal consists of a highly organised and regulated the sequence of cellular processes intending to form or repair muscle tissue. This sequence includes, cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. Proteoglycans (PGs), macromolecules formed by a core protein and glycosaminoglycan chains (GAGs) present a great diversity of functions explained by their capacity to interact with different ligands and receptors forming part of their signalling complex and/or protecting them from proteolytic cleavage. Particularly attractive is the function of the different types of PGs present at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). This review is focussed on the advances reached to understand the role of PGs during myogenesis and skeletal muscular dystrophies.

Abstract
During skeletal muscle development, transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) is a potent inhibitor of muscle cell proliferation and differentiation, as well as a regulator of extracellular matrix (ECM) production. Decorin, a member of the small leucine-rich ECM proteoglycans, binds to TGF-beta1 and modulates TGF-beta1-dependent cell growth stimulation or inhibition. The expression of decorin can be regulated by TGF-beta1 during muscle proliferation and differentiation. How TGF-beta1 affects decorin and muscle growth, however, has not been well documented in vivo. The present study investigated the effect of TGF-beta1 on decorin expression and intracellular connective tissue development during skeletal muscle growth. Exogenous TGF-beta1 significantly decreased the number of myofibers in a given area at both 1 d and 6 wk posthatch. The TGF-beta1-treated muscle had a significant decrease in decorin mRNA expression at embryonic day (ED) 10, whereas protein amounts decreased at 17 ED and 1 d posthatch compared to the control muscle. Decorin was localized in both the endomysium and perimysium in the control pectoralis major muscle. Transforming growth factor-beta1 reduced decorin in both the endomysium and perimysium from 17 ED to 6 wk posthatch. Compared to the control muscle, the perimysium space in the pectoralis major muscle was dramatically decreased by TGF-beta1 during embryonic development through posthatch growth. Because decorin regulates collagen fibrillogenesis, a major component of the ECM, the reduction of decorin by TGF-beta1 treatment may cause the irregular formation of collagen fibrils, leading to the decrease in endomysium and perimysium space. The results from the current study suggest that the effect of TGF-beta1 on decorin expression and localization was likely associated with altered development of the perimysium and the regulation of muscle fiber development.

Abstract
Muscle development at 20 and 25 d of incubation was studied in a randombred control line (RBC2), a subline (F) of RBC2 selected only for increased 16-wk BW, a commercial sire line (B), and reciprocal crosses of the F and B lines. Muscle samples from three males and three females of each genetic group were collected in such a manner to avoid contraction. After fixing, the muscles were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, measurements of muscle fiber width, muscle fiber bundle length and width, number of fibers within a 15.6 microm2 area, and extracellular matrix perimysial (PW) and endomysial (EW) width were taken with an Olympus XI 70 microscope equipped with an Olympus Magna Fire digital camera linked to Image Pro software. From each slide, 20 measurements were taken for each characteristic analyzed. In most of the muscle traits measured, additive genetic variation, as indicated by line differences, occurred when the RBC2 line was included in the comparison of pure lines. However, when only the B and F lines were compared, line differences were less frequent. In comparisons of the B and F lines and their reciprocal crosses, heterosis, as measured by contrasts of the average of the pure lines and the average of the reciprocal crosses, was an important source of variation for individual fiber measurements (negative) and extracellular space (positive) at 20 d of incubation but was less important at 25 d of incubation. No significant interactions between genetic group and sex were noted at 20 d of incubation, but such interactions were frequent at 25 d of incubation. These results suggest that muscle organizational differences between the two sexes begin to occur between these two ages and are not the same for different genetic groups.

Abstract
To delineate the role of proteoglycans in turkey skeletal muscle development, proteoglycan expression was examined in pectoral muscle from 14-, 20-, and 25-d-old embryos. Proteoglycans were separated by DEAE (diethylaminoethyl cellulose) anion exchange and molecular sieve chromatography. Glycosaminoglycan composition was measured by enzyme digestion and nitrous acid deamination. The proteoglycan decorin was analyzed at each of these stages of development for core protein size by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and for spatial distribution by immunohistochemistry. Chondroitin sulfate-containing proteoglycans were the predominant proteoglycans found throughout turkey embryonic skeletal muscle development. However, in 20- and 25-d-old pectoral muscle, higher levels of heparan and dermatan sulfate were observed compared with their values at 14 d. Two decorin core protein bands with molecular weights of 45 and 46 kDa were detected. Immunostaining for decorin showed that, as the connective tissue layers developed, decorin was localized in the perimysium and epimysium. These data indicate that turkey embryonic skeletal muscle proteoglycan expression is dynamic and changes from a matrix that is rich in a large chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan to one containing dermatan sulfate, heparan sulfate, and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans, and suggests the presence of two forms of decorin.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle fibers are surrounded by an extracellular matrix. The extracellular matrix is composed of glycoproteins, collagen, and proteoglycans. Proteoglycans have been suggested to play an important functional role in tissue differentiation; however, an understanding of how the extracellular matrix affects skeletal muscle development and function is largely unknown. Proteoglycans can regulate collagen fibrillogenesis, inhibit cell growth, and modulate the response to growth factors. Our studies have focused on the proteoglycan decorin, which interacts with transforming growth factor-beta and regulates collagen fibrillogenesis and cellular growth properties in the avian genetic muscle weakness Low Score Normal. Low Score Normal pectoral muscle development is characterized by a late embryonic increase in the expression of decorin followed by a subsequent increase in collagen crosslinking and modified collagen fibril organization. This paper reviews the interaction of extracellular matrix molecules, cell-extracellular matrix interactions, and modulation of growth factor activity. How proteoglycans may interface with each of these key events during skeletal muscle myogenesis is discussed.
