Project description:We analyze the transcription of these bovine milk and meat factors (BMMFs) and MS isolates in human HEK293TT cells. While all analyzed DNA agents are readily transcribed, one of the MS brain isolates (MSBI1.176), sharing homology with a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE)-associated DNA molecule, is transcribed at highest levels. Our results support the transcription of an open reading frame (ORF) encoding a replication-associated protein, which is highly conserved among all isolated BMMFs. In the case of the cow milk isolate CMI1.252, transcription also occurs in a second large ORF. Transcriptome profiling upon BMMF expression identified host cellular gene expression changes related to cell cycle progression and cell viability control, indicating potential pathways for a pathogenic involvement of BMMFs.

Project description:Besides smoking and exposure to specific environmental risk factors, also diet and in particular red meat consumption/exposure are described as risk factors contributing to lung cancer development. Incidence of non-smoking associated lung cancer is rising rapidly, globally. Global epidemiology supports an association between lung cancer incidence and consumption of bovine products. The search for meat/milk-associated cancer risk factors led to the isolation of plasmid DNA termed Bovine Meat and Milk Factors (BMMFs). Due to detection of increased expression levels of a conserved BMMF-encoded protein (Rep) in tissues of colorectal cancer patients, BMMFs have been proposed as causal risk factors for cancer acting via inflammation-driven indirect carcinogenesis. Yet, their presence and possible contribution to lung cancer remained elusive. In this study, Rep expression was quantified in paired tumor/peritumor tissues from lung cancer patients (n=35) as well as cancer-free individuals (n=19, tissues adjacent to benign hamartoma) by IHC, co-immunofluorescence microscopy, immunodetection/mass spectroscopy and genomics/transcriptomics screening. In all patients tested, Rep expression was immunohistochemically observed in CD68+ CD163+ alveolar lung macrophages, which were present at higher numbers in peritumor tissues of cancer patients compared to controls. Expression was inversely correlated with smoking intensity, supporting BMMFs’ function as a new, smoking-independent biomarker and possible driver for lung cancer. BMMF+ macrophages revealed a cancer-promoting M2-like phenotype upon scRNA-seq suggesting BMMF as target for both prevention and therapy. BMMFs might contribute to lung cancer by inducing pro-tumorigenic macrophage populations and serve as marker for (early) cancer detection and prevention. Mass Spectroscopy was used to support immunohistologic and immunoblotting data for BMMF Rep protein detection data on the protein level after anti-BMMF Rep-specific immunoprecipitation of lung tissue lysates.

Project description:Single cell RNA sequencing (10x) analysis of bovine in vitro meat with self-assembled muscle and neuronal tissue structures derived from bovine embryonic stem cells. Comparison of bovine in vitro meat from 2-D or 3-D culture methods. Bovine in vitro meat with and without co-induction of endothelial cells was also compared.

Project description:Cultivated meat, which aims to replicate traditional meat using tissue engineering and stem cell biology, is a promising approach to sustainably supplementing traditional meat production to meet increasing global demand. The production of structured cultivated whole-cut-like meat constructs is not trivial; it requires a complex structure that supports cell growth, enables nutrient and waste exchange, and mimics natural texture. Here, we develop a biocompatible, porose, and anisotropic scaffold, based on directional freezing of nano and microcrystalline cellulose, which supports the growth and differentiation of bovine mesenchymal stem cells toward fat and muscle lineages. Furthermore, we show that preloading the scaffolds with growth factors directing the cells for proliferation or differentiation is a promising alternative to conventional media delivery since these pretreated scaffolds yield similar proliferation and differentiation efficiencies using at least 10 times lower masses of prohibitively expensive factors, and thus may significantly lower one of the primary boundaries to price parity with traditional meat. Together, these findings propose a strategy that supports the development of structured, muscle-like cultivated constructs and represents a step toward whole-cut meat as a sustainable and ethically preferable alternative to meet the growing demand for a widely studied target product.

Project description:Given that different diets could alter cow milk yield and composition, the effects of different feed formula on milk extracellular vesicle (EV) miRNAs were detected. Cow milk EVs contained various small RNAs, including miRNAs, snRNAs, tiRNAs, Cis-regulatory elements, and piRNAs. Two hundred and seventy-six known bos taurus miRNAs were identified by sequencing in bovine milk EVs. There were 13 immune-related miRNAs in the top 20 miRNAs in milk EVs. Nine differently expressed known miRNAs were detected in responding to different feed formulations. Cow milk EVs are abundant of small RNAs, especially miRNAs, which might be closely related to the development of maternal mammary gland and neonatal immune maturity.

Project description:Alpha-gal Syndrome (AGS) is a potentially life-threatening allergy caused by an IgE-mediated immune response to galactose-α-1,3-galactose (alpha-gal), a carbohydrate epitope present in most mammalian meats. Currently, strict avoidance of mammalian meat remains the primary management strategy for affected individuals, and alpha-gal–free beef is not commercially available. Here, we leverage cultivated meat as a biotechnology platform to address this unmet clinical need by engineering alpha-gal–free bovine muscle cells. Using CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing, we disrupted GGTA1, the gene encoding α1,3-galactosyltransferase, in immortalized bovine satellite cells. High-efficiency editing produced clonal GGTA1 knockout cell lines harboring a homozygous frameshift mutation. Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence confirmed loss of the alpha-gal epitope, while bulk RNA-seq indicated minimal disruption of global gene expression and preserved myogenic differentiation capacity. Importantly, lysates from GGTA1 knockout cells elicited substantially reduced basophil activation in assays using plasma from a patient with AGS, indicating reduced basophil activation consistent with reduced allergenic potential. Together, these findings establish a proof of concept for engineering AGS-compatible cultivated meat and demonstrate the potential of cultivated meat technologies to address human health challenges.
