Project description:In this study, we investigated the dynamic changes of intramuscular fat (IMF) deposition in the breast muscle of Jingyuan chickens at different stages (42-, 126- and 180-day-old) using metabolomics. pH45min, a*, and L* were significantly increased in the breast muscle of 126-day-old chickens, and IMF content and b* were significantly increased in the breast muscle of 180-day-old chickens. A total of 4,643 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) were identified, of which 10 decreased and 29 increased with age. Key pathways associated with meat quality included oxidative phosphorylation, β-alanine metabolism, and glycerophospholipid metabolism. Combined transcriptomic and phenotypic correlation analyses revealed significant positive correlations of IMF, pH45min, a*, and L* with LysoPC 20:4, CD3E, TARP, IL7R, ENSGALG00010025331, and RASSF5. In the 42- and 180-day-old chickens, IMF, pH45min, a*, and L* were significantly and positively correlated with L-Anserine, Dihydroxyacetone phosphate, ENSGALG00010006904, and HSPB7. IMF, pH45min, a*, and L* were significantly and positively correlated with beta-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in the 126- and 180-day-old. This study deepens our understanding of the differences in IMF deposition at different stages of Jingyuan chickens and its relationship with meat quality.

Project description:This project aimed to compare the proteomic profiles between conventional chicken meat and cultured chicken meat produced through cell culture techniques. Proteins were extracted, separated using SDS-PAGE and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), and identified through mass spectrometry. KEGG pathway enrichment and STRING-based protein-protein interaction network analyses were performed to evaluate metabolic characteristics and structural differences between the groups. Conventional meat exhibited a high abundance of glycolytic and muscle contraction-associated proteins, while cultured meat showed elevated expression of proteins involved in stress response and redox regulation. These datasets provide fundamental insights for improving the quality and ensuring the safety of cultured meat products.

Project description:The processing ability of chicken meat is highly related to its ultimate pH (pHu), which is mainly determined by the amount of glycogen in the muscle at death. The molecular mechanisms involved in variations of those traits for chicken remain to be fully described. For that purpose, two chicken lines were divergently selected on breast meat pHu, i.e. the pHu- and the pHu+ lines. In this study, Chicken Genome Arrays (60 K) were used to compare muscle gene expression profiles of chickens from both lines. The final goal of this experiment is to identify biomarkers of low and high-pHu chicken meat. This study was supported by INRA and the French Ministry of Agriculture through the RFI CASDAR #1309 OPTIVIANDE.

Project description:Improvement of feed efficiency would increase profitability of the poultry industries by decreasing the amount of feed required for production. Korat (KR) chicken is a new alternative meat-type chicken breed which its meat is recognized for its high protein, low fat and low purine content, whereas its low feed efficiency leads to high cost of production. Deeper understanding on how feed efficiency influences meat quality is poorly elucidated. To fulfill deeper understand molecular key that point the variation in feed efficiency and meat quality, the aim of this study was to investigate molecular pathways and genes involved in feed efficiency and meat quality in thigh of slow-growing KR chicken. A total of 75 males KR chicken were reared in individual cage until 10 weeks of age. Individual feed intake and body weight were collected weekly to calculate Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) and Residual Feed Intake (RFI). Meat quality parameters were measured in thigh muscles such as ultimate pH (pHu), water-holding capacity (WHC), drip loss (DL), nucleotides content and several biomolecules (amide, …). Base on extreme values of FCR at 10 weeks of ages, 12 birds from the high FCR group (HFCR) and 9 birds from the low FCR group (LFCR) were selected for investigating their transcriptome using an 8×60K Agilent chicken microarray. In addition, a weighted gene coexpression network analysis was performed to detect the relationship between modules of co-expressed genes and feed efficiency, meat quality in thigh muscle. The result in this study indicated that selection on feed efficiency (FCR, RFI) would affect flavor precursor, lipid and protein content in thigh muscle. Based on WGCNA and functional enrichment analysis, results suggested that the key molecular pathways relate to FCR, RFI and meat quality (WHC, DL, IMP, AMP and inosine) in thigh muscle were the pathways of regulation of biological process, biological regulation and regulation of metabolic. Moreover, we revealed four genes there are assembly competence domain (ACD) gene, baculoviral IAP repeat containing 5 (BIRC5) gene, cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor 3 (COA3) gene and myosin light chain 9 (MYL9) gene that might be biomarker gene in feed efficiency and meat quality in thigh muscle. The hypothesis of the current study was alteration feed efficiency in slow-growing chicken will impact meat quality especially in term of texture and flavor.

Project description:Since the effect of selection for better feed efficiency on meat characteristics is largely unknown. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify key proteins and pathways regulating both FE traits and meat characteristics. At ten weeks of age, thigh muscle samples from six birds (three with high FCR and three with low FCR value) were selected, and their proteomes were investigated using a label-free proteomic method. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to screen the key protein modules and pathways. We found that glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, metabolic pathway, carbon metabolism, biosynthesis of amino acids, pyruvate metabolism, and protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum play a key role underlying these two traits. Thus, selection practices for KR should simultaneously consider both trait groups to maintain the high meat quality of slow-growing chicken while improving FE.

Project description:This project presents LC-MS/MS-based proteomic datasets obtained from bacterial colonies isolated from retail chicken meat samples, as part of a study focused on the detection of Campylobacter jejuni. The isolates were initially screened using a novel chromogenic enzymatic assay targeting hippuricase activity, which is specific for C. jejuni. Selected samples, including both enzymatically positive and negative results, were subjected to in-gel digestion followed by high-resolution LC-MS/MS analysis on an Orbitrap Exploris 240 instrument.
