Project description:The proteins of the milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) have a number of functions, such as the regulation of milk fat secretion and metabolism, the uptake and transportation of fatty acids in the intestine and potential protection from bacterial or viral infection. While the proteome of the MFGM in bovine milk has been extensively characterised, our knowledge of these proteins in buffalo milk is limited. In this study, a proteomic approach was used to characterise the proteome of the buffalo MFGM. Multiple extraction techniques were employed to increase the coverage of proteins identified, while label free relative quantitative liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry was used for comparison between the buffalo and bovine MFGM proteome. A total of 220 buffalo MFGM proteins and 234 bovine MFGM proteins were identified after being filtered from the initial dataset of 757 and 680 proteins respectively. Significantly greater amounts of xanthine oxidoreductase, platelet glycoprotein 4, heat shock cognate and calcineurin B homologous protein were identified per mass of buffalo MFGM protein extracted. The higher expression of xanthine oxidase in the MFGM of buffalo milk was confirmed by Western blot analysis and a heterogeneous distribution of this protein observed in situ on the surface of the MFGM. The high concentration of fat in buffalo milk, together with the differences in the MFGM proteome indicate differences in the nutritional profile, biological function, and potential ease of processing of buffalo and bovine milk products.

Project description:Bovine mastitis, predominantly caused by pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus, is a major impediment to milk production. Although its prevalence varies from cows to buffaloes, it lacks relevant markers that mark the phases and progression of the disease. Thus, the focus of this study was to identify key proteins that mark the transition from subclinical to clinical states in a species specific manner. Whey proteins isolated from healthy and S. aureus infected milk from both Holstein Friesian cow and Murrah buffalo were characterized by label free quantification using mass spectrometry. Collectively, 662 proteins were identified with atleast two peptides, of which 51 and 80 proteins were found significant by ANOVA (p value < 0.05) with increasing or decreasing trends in the disease progression in HF and Mu, respectively. Linear change in expression of proteins like haptoglobin and fibronectin in HF and spermadhesin and osteopontin in Mu correlated with the stage of the disease and progression in a species specific manner. Similarly, high mobility group proteins, angiogenin, cofilin-1 that were previously reported in oxidative stress were overexpressed whilemembers of ubiquitin family which remove aggregated proteins were downregulated during the progression of infection. Subsequently, selected differentially expressed proteins (e.g. osteopontin, CAP-1 and fibrinogen α) were validated by Western blot analysis. Results of this study provide deeper insights on whey proteome dynamics and a signature pattern indicative of disease progression.

Project description:Milk is a complex fluid whose proteome displays a diverse set of proteins of high abundance such as caseins and medium to low abundance whey proteins such as ß-lactoglobulin, lactoferrin, immunoglobulins, glycoproteins, peptide hormones and enzymes. A sample preparation method that enables high reproducibility and throughput is key in reliably identifying proteins present or proteins responding to conditions such as a diet, health or genetics. Using skim milk samples from Jersey and Holstein cows, we compared three extraction procedures which have not previously been applied to samples of cows’ milk. Method A (urea) involved a simple dilution of the milk in a urea-based buffer, method B (TCA/acetone) involved a TCA/acetone precipitation and method C (methanol/chloroform) involved a tri-phasic partition method in chloroform/methanol solution. Protein assays, SDS-PAGE profiling, and trypsin digestion followed by nanoHPLC-electrospray ionisation-tandem mass spectrometry (nLC-ESI-MS/MS) analyses were performed to assess their efficiency. Replicates were used at each analytical step (extraction, digestion, injection) to assess reproducibility. Overall 186 unique accessions, major and minor proteins, were identified with a combination of methods. Method C (methanol/chloroform) yielded the best resolved SDS-patterns and highest protein recovery rates, method A (urea) yielded the greatest number of accessions, and, of the three procedures, method B (TCA/acetone) was the least compatible of all with a wide range of downstream analytical procedures. Our results also highlighted breed differences between the proteins in milk of Jersey and Holstein cows.

Project description:The study reports a differential proteomic analysis of the Mediterranean buffalo milk to evaluate the changes induced by Staphylococcus spp. during a subclinical intramammary infection (IMI). A number of 12 quarter milk samples, 6 of which with somatic cell count (SCC) < 50,000 cells/mL and culture-negative, and the other 6 with SCC ˃ 3,000,000 cells/mL and culture-positive to Staphylococcus aureus (SAU, n=3), SAU, or non-aureus staphylococci (NAS, n=3) was selected. Samples were analyzed using a shotgun proteomics approach, based on filter-aided sample preparation (FASP) followed by LC-MS/MS and label-free analysis. Here, the largest buffalo milk protein dataset described so far was reported. Moreover, the results demonstrated that staphylococcal IMI mostly affected proteins involved in structural functions and in innate immune defense, with changes in their abundance that were generally more intense in SAU than in NAS samples. Further, an increase in the abundance of different cathelicidins was observed, as already reported for other animals with mastitis disease (1,2).

In conclusion, our results provide the first in depth characterization of buffalo milk proteins, describe the changes induced by SAU and NAS subclinical intramammary infection and suggest indications to reveal subclinical staphylococcal mastitis in buffalo by the milk proteome investigation.

Project description:We have reported that microRNAs are present in human, bovine, and rat milk whey. Milk whey miRNAs were resistant to acidic condition and to RNase. Thus, milk miRNAs were thought to be present packaged into membrane vesicles like exosome. However, body fluid miRNAs have been reported that there are in different forms. To clarify which miRNAs species are exist in exosome and which species are exist in another form, we used bovine raw milk and purified total RNA from exosome fraction and ultracentrifugated supernatant fraction, and analyzed by miRNA microarray.

Project description:Buffalo milk is a rich source of various nutritional components and bioactive peptides, offering significant health benefits. Endogenous peptides, which occur naturally in milk, represent a valua-ble source of bioactive peptides with potential nutraceutical applications. However, research on endogenous peptides in buffalo milk remains limited. This study employed a quantitative pep-tidomic approach to characterize endogenous peptides across different lactation stages.

Project description:Milk is one among the most common food allergens and the proteins representing caseins and whey fractions of milk have been characterized as the major triggers for allergic responses in susceptible individuals. Milk or milk-derived ingredients- varying in their casein and whey protein content and composition- are present as an ingredient in many foods. This project was designed to identify candidate target peptides for casein and whey fractions of milk which can be used for milk allergen detection from foods irrespective of the type of ingredients used in them.

Project description:<p>Metabolomics analysis showed that concentration of free amino acids and short-chain fatty acid lipids were increased in DLSMC, and they were more easily digested and absorbed. Key metabolic pathways, including alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism, starch and sucrose metabolism, and glycerophospholipid metabolism, appear to be involved in forming essential flavors. Our research revealed that the manipulation of thermal processing and the oxidation of fatty acids in buffalo milk are crucial factors influencing the flavor profile of DLSMC.</p>
