Lipidomics reveals alterations of lipid composition and molecular nutrition in irradiated marble beef.

ABSTRACT: Electron beam irradiation can effectively inhibit microbial growth, but the changes of lipid during irradiation have not been comprehensively analyzed in marble beef. Here, UHPLC-MS/MS was used to detect lipids changes of irradiated marble beef. A total of 1032 lipids were identified and classified into 3 lipid classes and 8 subclasses in irradiated marble beef. 9 lipid biomarkers were screened with increasing irradiation dose. 122 differential lipids were generated and involved in 4 metabolic pathways included Glycerophospholipid metabolism, Linoleic acid metabolism, alpha-Linolenic acid metabolism and Arachidonic acid metabolism though PC(18:0/14:0), PE(16:0/16:0) and PE(18:0/16:0) in irradiated. Our results showed that irradiation had effect on the lipid of marbled beef, but the increase of irradiation dose from 2.5 kGy to 4.5 kGy had little effect on lipids. These results help us to understand the dynamic changes of irradiated meat lipids and lay a foundation for the application of irradiation in meat preservation.

Project description:Despite the recent advances in transcriptomics, gene expression studies addressing cattle´s skeletal muscle adaptations in response to compensatory growth are warranted, particularly regarding lipid metabolism due to its impact in meat sensory and nutritional traits. In the present study, in comparison to ad libitum feeding, a period of feed restriction was used in order to understand the changes in bull´s lipid metabolism and gene expression of the adipogenic and lipogenic pathways after re-alimentation. Thus, 40 young Alentejana bulls were either fed ad libitum (CG group) from 9 to 18 months of age or subjected to food restriction from 9 to 15 months of age, and fed ad libitum until 24 months of age (DG group). The intramuscular fat (IMF) and total fatty acids (FA) contents were similar between groups. The major FA (>2%) contents were similar (16:0, 16:1c9, 18:1c9 and 18:2n-6) between treatments with the exception of 18:0 content that was 15% lower in DG than in CG and 20:4n-6 that tended to be greater on DG bulls. Regarding minor FA (<2%), the DG group presented greater proportions (P<0.01) of 17:1c9, 18:1t9, 18:1t10 (, 18:1c11), 18:1c13, 18:3n-6, 22:0, 22:4n-6 and 22:6n-3 and lower (P<0.05) proportions of 20:0, 18:1t16+c14, and branched chain FA (iso-15:0, anteiso-15:0, iso-16:0 and anteiso-17:0) than the CG group. Delta-9 desaturase activity indices were consistently greater (P<0.05) in DG, when compared to the CG group. Regarding microarray analysis, differentially expressed genes between CG and DG bulls were grouped in 5 main biological functions: lipid and nucleic acid metabolisms, small molecule biochemistry, molecular transport and translational modification. Discontinuous growth down-regulated the expression of ACACB (FC (fold-change) = 1.32), FABP3 (FC = 1.45), HADHA (FC = 1.41) and SLC37A4 (FC = 1.40) genes, when compared to the CG system (FDR<0.05). In contrast, in the CG bulls, the expression of ELOVL5 (FC = 1.58) and FASN (FC = 1.71) was down-regulated when compared to DG bulls. These results were confirmed to be significant (P<0.05) in the case of ELOVL5, FASN and SLC37A4, and almost significant for FABP3 by qRT-PCR analysis. The SCD1 and SCD5 gene expressions were not found to be affected by growth path. These results contribute to the still scarce knowledge about the mechanisms involved in fatty acid metabolism during compensatory growth which have decisive role on meat quality produced in Mediterranean areas.

Project description:Understanding the systemic biochemistry of early pregnancy in the mare is essential for developing new diagnostics and identifying causes for pregnancy loss. This study aimed to elucidate the dynamic lipidomic changes occurring during the initial stages of equine pregnancy, with a specific focus on days 7 and 14 post-ovulation. By analysing and comparing the plasma lipid profiles of pregnant and non-pregnant mares, the objective of this study was to identify potential biomarkers for pregnancy and gain insights into the biochemical adaptations essential for supporting maternal recognition of pregnancy and early embryonic development. Employing discovery lipidomics, we analysed plasma samples from pregnant and non-pregnant mares on days 7 and 14 post-conception using the SCIEX ZenoTOF 7600 system. This high-resolution mass spectrometry approach enabled us to comprehensively profile and compare the lipidomes across these critical early gestational timepoints. Our analysis revealed significant lipidomic alterations between pregnant and non-pregnant mares and between days 7 and 14 of pregnancy. Key findings include the upregulation of bile acids, sphingomyelins, phosphatidylinositols, and triglycerides in pregnant mares. These changes suggest enhanced lipid synthesis and mobilization, likely associated with the embryo's nutritional requirements and the establishment of embryo-maternal interactions. There were significant differences in lipid metabolism between pregnant and non-pregnant mares, with a notable increase in the sterol lipid BA 24:1;O5 in pregnant mares as early as day 7 of gestation, suggesting it as a sensitive biomarker for early pregnancy detection. Notably, the transition from day 7 to day 14 in pregnant mares is characterized by a shift towards lipids indicative of membrane biosynthesis, signalling activity, and preparation for implantation. The study demonstrates the profound lipidomic shifts that occur in early equine pregnancy, highlighting the critical role of lipid metabolism in supporting embryonic development. These findings provide valuable insights into the metabolic adaptations during these period and potential biomarkers for early pregnancy detection in mares.
