We aimed to evaluate the relationships between meat or carcass properties and the abundance of 29 proteins quantified in two muscles, Longissimus thoracis and Rectus abdominis, of Rouge des Prés cows. The relative abundance of the proteins was evaluated using a high throughput immunological method: the Reverse Phase Protein array. A combination of univariate and multivariate analyses has shown that small HSPs (CRYAB, HSPB6), fast glycolytic metabolic and structural proteins (MYH1, ENO3, ENO1, TPI1) when assayed both in RA and LT, were related to meat tenderness, marbling, ultimate pH, as well as carcass fat-to-lean ratio or conformation score.

A French retrospective study from 2011 to 2015 was conducted. Patients who underwent F-FDG-PET/CT for diagnosis or follow-up of a rheumatism or an unexplained biological inflammatory syndrome were included.

- The study focuses on how microbial interactions shape microbiota properties, emphasizing the challenges posed by the rarity of many operational taxonomic units (OTUs) within these communities.
- It highlights that traditional methods for detecting associations between OTUs often yield unreliable results due to a high number of zeros in the data tables.
- The authors propose a new approach to identify testable associations, which could enhance data analysis and network inference quality, ultimately aiding in the search for biological agents to manage rare pathogens.
