Ferroptosis plays a pivotal role in regulating various physiological processes and quality of post-mortem muscle. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying ferroptosis remain unclear. The study investigated how ferroptosis was induced in beef during cold storage. Results showed that the expression of autophagy-related genes, LC3, ATG5, ATG7, and NCOA4 in beef during cold storage promoted the degradation of ferritin heavy chains. Ferritin evoked ferroptosis by releasing free iron, inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and inhibiting the glutathione (GSH)-glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) pathway. Furthermore, treatment of myoblasts with GSK 2656157 (autophagy inhibitor) showed that ferritin degradation was lower in the GSK 2656157-treated myoblasts than in the control, while GSH content and GPX4 activity were higher than the control (P < 0.05), and the contents of free iron, ROS and malondialdehyde, and apoptosis were lower than the control (P < 0.05). These results suggest that ferroptosis is induced by degradation of ferritin via the autophagic pathway.

Three-dimensional (3D) measurements extracted from beef carcass images were used to predict the weight of four saleable meat yield (SMY) traits (total SMY and the SMY of the forequarter, flank, and hindquarter) and four primal cuts (sirloin, ribeye, topside and rump). Data were collected at two UK abattoirs using time-of-flight cameras and manual bone out methods. Predictions were made for 484 carcasses, using multiple linear regression (MLR) or machine learning (ML) techniques.

To get insight into the thawing and salting in recovery and protection mechanisms on quality in frozen meat after subsequent cooking. The myofiber morphological-water evolution and quality changes in beef during freezing-thawing-cooking and freezing-cooking treatments were investigated. The cooking losses of fresh-cooked, frozen-cooked, and frozen-thawed-cooked samples were 27.

To investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of collagen peptides, collagen peptides from cod skin were prepared to assess their in vitro anti-inflammatory effects and in vivo efficacy against ulcerative colitis. The results show that collagen peptides demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reducing oxidative stress in vitro. In vivo, collagen peptides significantly reduced colonic tissue damage, modulated serum cytokine balance, increased the expression of tight junction proteins ZO-1, Occludin, and Claudin-1 in colon tissue, enhanced the abundance of beneficial bacteria while reducing harmful bacteria, and restored microbial balance.

Background/aim: This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of deferoxamine (DFO) pretreated feline adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (fATMSCs) for the treatment of inflammatory disorders.
Materials And Methods: fATMSCs were isolated from feline adipose tissue and characterized using flow cytometry for surface marker expression and differentiation assays for adipogenic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic lineages. Different concentrations of DFO were used to evaluate its impact on fATMSC activity.

Genetic trends are a valuable tool for analysing the efficiency of breeding programs. They are calculated by averaging the predicted breeding values for all individuals born within a specific time period. Moreover, partitioned genetic trends allow dissecting the contributions of several selection paths to overall genetic progress.
