Previously, animal breeding prioritized enhancing key economic traits to improve production efficiency, leading to a gradual difference in meat quality. However, the genetic factors influencing meat quality remain unclear. To identify key genetic pathways contributing to meat quality, native Chinese yellow-feathered chicken (Qingyuan Partridge Chicken, QPC; female, n=10), and commercial chicken broiler (Cobb broiler, CB; female, n=10) were used for meat quality assessment through metabolomics, proteomics, and phosphoproteomics sequencing. The results show that QPC had lower pH (93.12%), shear force (81.46%), cooking loss (69.29%), moisture content (93.24%) and muscle fiber area (46.04%), but higher meat color values (a*(163.65%) and b*(250.27%)), drip loss (146.32%), and intramuscular fat content (382.01%) than CB ( p < 0.05). Metabolomic, proteomic, and phosphoproteomic analyses were jointly conducted, revealing significant differences in energy metabolism strategies. Higher glycolytic enzyme activity was observed in QPC (ENO1, GAPDH, GPI, PFKM, PKM, and TPI1, p < 0.05), while more energetic phosphate compounds were stored in CB. CB had higher Na + /K + Pump protein abundance (SCN4A, LOC107051305, ATP1B4, ATP12A, ATP1A1, and ATP1A2, p < 0.05) and phosphorylation (ATP1A2-Ser662, p < 0.05) and Ca 2+ channel protein abundance (ATP2B4, SRL, CACNB1, CACNA1S, CACNA2D1, CAMK2G, LOC107050717 and TNNC2, p < 0.05) than QPC. In QPC, CAMKII autophosphorylation activated downstream protein and increased Ca 2+ . These results suggest CB is more contractile than QPC, contributing to meat quality between CB and QPC.

ABSTRACT Mycoplasma gallisepticum ( MG ) is an avian pathogen that commonly causes respiratory diseases in poultry. Methylsulfonylmethane ( MSM ) is a sulfur-containing natural compound that could alleviate inflammatory injury through its excellent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. However, it is still unclear whether MSM prevents MG infection. The purpose of this study is to determine whether MSM has mitigative effects on MG-induced inflammatory injury in chicken and chicken like macrophages ( HD11 cells ). In this research, White Leghorn chickens and HD11 cells were used to build the MG-infection model. Besides, the protective effects of MSM against MG infection were evaluated by detecting MG colonization, histopathological changes, oxidative stress and inflammatory injury of trachea, and HD11 cells. The results revealed that MG infection induced inflammatory injury and oxidative stress in trachea and HD11 cells. However, MSM treatment significantly ameliorated oxidative stress, partially alleviated the abnormal morphological changes and reduced MG colonization under MG infection. Moreover, MSM reduced the mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines-related genes and decreased the number of death cells under MG infection. Importantly, the protective effects of MSM were associated with suppression of nuclear factor-kappa B ( NF-κB ) and extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK) /Jun amino terminal kinases (JNK) -mitogen-activated protein kinases ( MAPK ) pathway in trachea and HD11 cells. These results proved that MSM has protective effects on MG-induced inflammation in chicken, and supplied a better strategy for the protective intervention of this disease.

A residue depletion study of ampicillin (AMP) was performed after oral dosing (60.0 mg/kg and 120.0 mg/kg body weight once a day for 5 days) to laying hens, through the use of reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (RP-HPLC-FLD) to achieve detection of ampicillin residue in eggs. Limit of detection was 0.5 ng/g, and limit of quantitation was 1.2 ng/g for ampicillin. Extraction recoveries of ampicillin from samples fortified at 5.0–125.0 ng/g levels ranged from 77.5% to 84.6% in albumen, 77.9% to 87.5% in yolk, and 77.9% to 88.6% in whole egg, with coefficients of variation ≤9.3%. The maximum concentrations of ampicillin in albumen, yolk, and whole egg were detected at 1, 2, and 1 day after the last administration of ampicillin, respectively. Ampicillin was not detectable in albumen at day 9 of withdrawal time, at day 10 and 11 in yolk, and day 9 and 11 in whole egg at each of those 2 dose levels. The theoretical withdrawal time of AMP in whole egg was 6.730 and 7.296 days for 60 and 120 mg/kg oral dosage, respectively. This method also proved to be suitable as a rapid and reliable method for the determination of ampicillin in other poultry eggs.

Co-extraction of multiple types of target substances is the key to achieve high throughput detection. In this work, PDA@MOF-808/PAN NFsM was prepared by co -modified polyacrylonitrile nanofiber membrane (PAN NFsM) with polydopamine (PDA) and metal-organic framework-808 (MOF-808), and its potential as a solid-phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent was investigated by using the most typical nine veterinary drug residues in eggs and chicken as model target substances. The results show that PDA@MOF-808/PAN NFsM could effectively co-extract all the target substances (adsorption efficiency ranged from 81.46 % to 96.78 %), and had good capability of sample matrix purification (matrix effect was lower than −15.26 %), so a new SPE method has been established. Combined with UPLC-MS/MS, the detection limits were 0.3 to 3.1 μg/kg, the recoveries were between 71.02 % and 106.48 %, and the relative standard deviations were lower than 12.03 %, indicating that the method has considerable good sensitivity, accuracy and precision.

As one of the five basic tastes, umami has the advantages of making the overall taste of food more harmoniously. Although various umami substances in food have been isolated and identified, in recent years, there are limit studies on the processing technology for improving food umami. Therefore, it is necessary to explore novel efficient umami improvement technologies to meet the urgentment of the food industry. This experiment was designed to study the effect of 0.1% (w/w) sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) combined with different power (0, 120, 180, 240, and 300 W) ultrasound treatment on the taste and flavor of chicken broth. Results demonstrated that the chicken broth under the power of 120 W ultrasound treatment combined with 0.1% (w/w) NaHCO 3 was the most umami, and contained the largest amount of IMP. The chicken broth under the treatment of 180 W ultrasound combined with 0.1% (w/w) NaHCO 3 has better flavor and sensory evaluation as the umami improved. In summary, 180 W ultrasound combined with 0.1% (w/w) NaHCO 3 pretreatment is a simple and low-cost processing technology, which is inclined to apply in industry. Practical Applications Compared with the traditional umami improvement method, ultrasound can significantly reduce the cost of food umami-enhancing with the characteristics of high safety, environmental protection, low operating cost, and high instantaneous efficiency. Sodium bicarbonate is an inorganic salt. Moderate intake is beneficial to the body. It can help neutralize stomach acid and supplement sodium for the body. In this study, low-power ultrasound combined with low-concentration of sodium bicarbonate solution was used to cook chicken soup, and the umami taste was improved to a large extent, which provided a novel method for industrial application.

Calcium-binding peptides have gained significant attention due to their potential applications in various fields. In this study, we aimed to prepare, characterize, and evaluate the stability of calcium-binding peptides derived from chicken blood. Chicken hemoglobin peptides (CPs) were obtained by protease hydrolysis and were applied to prepare chicken hemoglobin peptide–calcium chelate (CP-Ca). The preparation conditions were optimized, and the characteristics and stability of CP-Ca were analyzed. The optimal chelating conditions were determined by single-factor and response surface tests, and the maximum calcium ion chelating rate was 77.54%. Amino acid analysis indicated that glutamic acid and aspartic acid motifs played an important role in the chelation of the calcium ions and CP. According to the characterization analysis, CP-Ca was a different substance compared with CP; calcium ions chelated CPs via the sites of carbonyl oxygen, carboxyl oxygen, and amino nitrogen groups; and after the chelation, the structure changed from a smooth homogeneous plate to compact granular. The stability analysis showed that CP-Ca was stable at different temperatures, pH, and gastrointestinal conditions. The study indicates that chicken blood is a promising source of peptide–calcium chelates, providing a theoretical basis for application in functional foods and improving the utilization value of chicken blood.

Increasing concerns over bisphenol A (BPA) as an endocrine disrupting chemical (EDC) and its adverse effects on both humans and animals have led to the substitution by structural analogs, such as bisphenol F (BPF), in many application areas. Information regarding to the carry-over of this emerging chemical in farm animals is essential for legislation and risk assessment purposes. In this study, a large-scale number of animal experiments were designed to investigate the transfer of BPF from feed to eggs. One control and three experimental groups of laying hens (72 hens per group) were fed with basal diets and BPF-contaminated feed at concentration levels of 0.1, 0.5 and 2.5 mg kg −1 , respectively, for two weeks. The hens were then fed with BPF-free diets for a further four weeks. Eggs were collected daily, and separated into egg yolk and white for BPF analysis. The effects of different levels of BPF exposure on laying performance followed a non-monotonic dose-response curve, since low level BPF (0.1 mg kg −1 ) exposure did increase the laying rate, mean egg weight and daily feed intake, while high level BPF (2.5 mg kg −1 ) exposure showed a decreasing trend. BPF residues were detected in both egg yolks and whole eggs after two days of administration, and plateau phase was achieved within 9–18 days. There are clear linear dose-response relationships between the plateau BPF concentrations in feed and eggs. The residue of BPF was found mainly in egg yolks with conjugated form and depleted slowly (still detected 21 days after feeding the BPF-free diet of the high level group). Mean carry-over rate of 0.59% BPF from feed to eggs was obtained. Compared with the carry-over rates of PCBs and dioxins, BPF showed a relatively minor trend of bioaccumulation in eggs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the deposition, depletion, and bioaccumulation study of bisphenols in farm animals. The quantity of data can therefore be helpful in the frame of risk assessment, especially for a comprehensive estimation of consumer exposure to the residues of bisphenols.

Ethanamizuril (EZL) is a novel anti-coccidial triazine synthesized by the Shanghai Veterinary Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. As a novel coccidiostat, it is essential to study its residue in food animal tissues. In this study, a reliable UPLC method for the determination of ethanamizuril (EZL) and one of its metabolites (M3) in chicken muscle, skin and fat, liver, and kidney samples was developed. Analytes were extracted using acetonitrile and 10% sodium carbonate solution, defatted by n -hexane, and further purified by using an Oasis MCX cartridge. The calibration curves for both test compounds were linear in all tissue matrices we tested: muscle, skin and fat, liver and kidney. The mean relative recoveries of EZL and M3 were from 87.3% to 103.2% between all tissue samples. The inter-day and intra-day relative standard deviations were within 15% and 20%, respectively. This method is accurate, reproducible and is ready to be field-tested.

Simple SummaryDeveloping safe and effective antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) substitutes is particularly important to improve animal health and production performance. As an essential plant oil, the oregano oil's main bioactive substance is carvacrol, which has been proven to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiviral properties. The sanguinarine from macleaya cordata is the primary bioactive substance. Sanguinarine has anti-tumor, immune-enhancing, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects. However, it has not been reported whether the compatibility of oregano oil and macleaya cordata extract could produce better results. This study is the first to report the effect of oregano oil combined with macleaya cordata oral solution on the growth of broilers. The oregano oil combined with macleaya cordata oral solution significantly improved the growth performance of broilers. At the same time, serum biochemical indices, serum antioxidant indices, serum immune indices, serum cytokines, and intestinal morphology were significantly improved. In summary, our results demonstrated that the mixed solution of oregano oil and macleaya cordata has substantial potential to be an alternative to AGPs for broilers to reduce costs and improve benefits. This study provides basic data and technical support for further research.AbstractThe abuse of AGPs in animal husbandry has led to severe problems such as drug resistance and ecological, and environmental destruction, which seriously threaten human health and public health security. In recent years, extracts of oregano oil and macleaya cordata have become a hot spot in the research and application of AGP substitutes for their safety and high efficiency. This study is the first to report the effect of oregano oil combined with macleaya cordata oral solution on broiler growth performance. A total of 960 one-day-old broiler chickens were randomly divided into four treatment groups (240 chickens per group). Each treatment group was divided into six replicate groups (40 birds per replicate group). There were four groups in this study: the solvent control group, the oregano essential oil combined with macleaya cordata extract oral solution group (OS group), the oregano essential oil oral solution group (OEO group), and the macleaya cordata extract oral solution group (MCE group). Two chickens from each replicate group were collected and mixed into a composite sample. Six composite samples were obtained for each treatment group. The results showed that the oregano oil combined with macleaya cordata oral solution significantly improved the growth performance of broiler chickens. At the same time, serum biochemical indices, serum antioxidant indices, serum immune indices, serum cytokines, and intestinal morphology were significantly improved by the OS group. This study shows that oregano oil combined with macleaya cordata oral solution has substantial potential to be an alternative to AGPs for broilers.Keywords:oregano oil;macleaya cordata;oral solution;broilers;growth performance

Graphene oxide (GO) is an ideal adsorbent for polar and less polar compounds due to its hexagonal carbon network structure with oxygen-containing groups, while its strong hydrophilicity and water solubility limited its application in sample pretreatment techniques. Herein, GO was composited with polyethyleneglycol (PEG) or polyaniline (PAN) through intermolecular interactions to improve its stability, and the GO/PEG and GO/PAN composite coated stir bars were prepared by sol–gel technique. Compared with GO/PAN composite and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coated stir bar, the prepared GO/PEG composite coated stir bar exhibited higher extraction efficiency for five fluoroquinolones (FQs). Based on it, a method of GO/PEG composite coated stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) combined with high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detector (HPLC-FLD) was proposed. The factors influencing SBSE, such as sample pH, salt effect, stirring rate, extraction time, desorption solvent and desorption time, were optimized, and the analytical performance of the developed SBSE-HPLC-FLD method was evaluated. The limits of detection (LODs) for five FQs were in the range of 0.0045–0.0079 μg L −1 , and the enrichment factors (EFs) were in the range of 41.5–65.5-fold (theoretical enrichment factor was 100-fold). The reproducibility was also investigated at concentrations of 0.05 μg L −1 and the relative standard deviations (RSDs, n = 6) were found to be in the range of 4.6–12.1%. The proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of FQs in chicken muscle and chicken liver samples.

Ethnopharmacological relevance Celosia Semen (CS) serves as a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for promoting liver health and enhancing vision, with extensive clinical applications. Triterpenoid saponins represent the primary active components of CS, with the highest concentration of Celosin I (CI) detected. The urgent need for effective NAFLD treatments motivated us assess the beneficial effects of total saponins from CS (TSCS) and CI. Aims of the study To investigate the therapeutic effects of TSCS and CI on NAFLD and its underlying molecular mechanisms. Materials and methods The impact of TSCS and CI on NAFLD was evaluated through in vitro and in vivo methodologies, utilizing high-fat diet (HFD) and palmitic acid/oleic acid modeling on C57BL/6J mice and AML12 cells, respectively. Biochemical analysis, H&E and Oil red O staining were used to characterize the lipid-lowering and hepatoprotective activities of TSCS and CI. Lipidomics discerned the impact of TSCS and CI interventions on liver lipid composition, distribution and alteration in NFALD mice. RT-qPCR and western blotting detected the influence of TSCS and CI on genes linked to de novo lipogenesis, fat calculation uptake, oxidation and esterification. The docking analysis anticipated the interaction of six major triterpenoid saponins within TSCS with SREBP1. Results TSCS and CI markedly diminished lipid accumulation induced by high fat both in vivo and in vitro . TSCS and CI also mitigated hepatic steatosis and liver injury induced by HFD through the reduction of TC, TG, FAs, ALT, and AST, even at minimal dose of 25 mg/kg. Lipidomics indicated that TSCS and CI had the potential to modulate the lipid metabolism network, rectify lipid metabolic dysregulation induced by NAFLD, decrease the levels of harmful lipids, and elevate the levels of advantageous lipids. Furthermore, TSCS and CI exhibited a strong affinity to SREBP1, thereby might directly influence the expression of SREBP1 and a cascade of essential enzymes involved in de novo lipogenesis, and finally resulting in a diminished synthesis of novel lipids. Conclusion TSCS and CI were confirmed firstly as key active components of CS in amending hepatic steatosis and mitigate liver damage in NAFLD, outlining the preliminary mechanism. They warrant further exploration as drug candidates for NAFLD treatment, especially in light of the current shortage of medications and limited therapeutic options.

Excessive abdominal fat deposition negatively impacts poultry meat production and carcass yield. Identification of novel adipogenesis regulators may help improve production performance declines caused by excessive fat deposition. NUMB Endocytic Adaptor Protein ( NUMB ) typically functions as a cell fate determinant and plays a significant role in cell development and various diseases. Here, we found that NUMB is abundantly expressed in chicken abdominal fat depots and is induced in cultured adipocytes following adipogenic treatment. The gain- and loss-of-function experiments demonstrated that NUMB promotes the proliferation and G1/S transition of chicken adipocytes, enhances adipocyte differentiation, and increases the expression of PPARγ1 transcript. Through mRNA-seq analysis and molecular experiments, we further confirmed that NUMB inhibits the transcriptional activation of the NOTCH1 pathway and the expression of the downstream transcription factor HES1 by inducing NOTCH1 degradation. Nevertheless, the inhibition of the NOTCH1 / HES1 axis alone cannot fully explain NUMB 's role in adipogenesis, as NUMB also regulates the expression of multiple adipogenic transcription factors such as E2F1 , EGR2 , and NR4A3 . Our data suggest that NUMB is a potent activator of adipogenesis and enhances our understanding of its regulatory mechanisms in chicken abdominal fat deposition.
