    BACKGROUND: Ectopic fat deposition refers to lipid accumulation that affects metabolic function and tissue characteristics. Japanese Black cattle are distinguished by their high intramuscular fat content, which contributes to their distinctive character. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying these traits remain unclear. This study compared gene expression patterns in different muscle regions to identify genes associated with intramuscular fat accumulation. First, we conducted RNA sequencing to analyze differences in gene expression profiles among the sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis minor, and pectoralis major muscles. In addition, single-cell nuclear RNA sequencing was conducted to investigate the cellular composition of these muscle tissues. RESULTS: Distinct gene expression patterns were observed among the different muscles. In the pectoralis, which contains a high proportion of intramuscular fat, adipocyte-related genes such as FABP4, SCD, and ADIPOQ were highly expressed. In addition, lipases such as PNPLA2, LPL, MGLL, and LIPE were predominantly expressed in intramuscular fat, whereas PLA2G12A, PLD3, and ALOX15 were specifically expressed in myofibers. Moreover, a subclass of fibro-adipogenic progenitor cells that differentiate into intramuscular adipocytes was found to express genes related to microenvironment formation, including ICAM1, TGFBRs, and members of the COL4A family. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides novel insight into the genetic regulation of intramuscular fat accumulation. It improves our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying their distinctive meat characteristics.

    Background: Japanese Black beef is known for its high intramuscular fat content, an important factor in its distinctive Wagyu aroma. Wet aging, which involves vacuum-packing meat and storing it at low temperatures, enhances flavor, texture, and tenderness and is essential for maintaining and improving meat quality. In this study, changes in metabolites and lipid profiles were investigated during the wet aging of Japanese Black and Holstein beef. Methods/Results: Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified 113 metabolites in Japanese Black beef and 94 in Holstein beef, with significant increases in metabolites like aspartic acid and maleic acid over the aging period. Regarding lipid composition, total free fatty acids significantly increased with wet aging, with Japanese Black beef showing significantly higher concentrations of oleic and linoleic acids than Holstein beef. Additionally, lipid analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry revealed a reduction in specific phospholipids, particularly lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE), with notable decreases in LPC (18:1), LPC (18:2), LPE (18:1), and LPE (18:2). Conclusions: These results suggest that wet aging influences the stability of membrane lipids, facilitating the degradation of phospholipids into free fatty acids, and improving the flavor of Japanese Black beef.

    Efficient cold-chain delivery is essential for maintaining a sustainable global food supply. This study used metabolomic analysis to examine meat quality changes during the "wet aging" of crossbred Wagyu beef during cold storage. The longissimus thoracic (Loin) and adductor muscles (Round) of hybrid Wagyu beef, a cross between the Japanese Black and Holstein-Friesian breeds, were packaged in vacuum film and refrigerated for up to 40 days. Sensory evaluation indicated an increase in the umami and kokumi taste owing to wet aging. Comprehensive analysis using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified metabolite changes during wet aging. In the Loin, 94 metabolites increased, and 24 decreased; in the Round, 91 increased and 18 decreased. Metabolites contributing to the umami taste of the meat showed different profiles during wet aging. Glutamic acid increased in a cold storage-dependent manner, whereas creatinine and inosinic acid degraded rapidly even during cold storage. In terms of lipids, wet aging led to an increase in free fatty acids. In particular, linoleic acid, a polyunsaturated fatty acid, increased significantly among the free fatty acids. These results provide new insight into the effects of wet aging on Wagyu-type beef, emphasizing the role of free amino acids, organic acids, and free fatty acids generated during cold storage.

    Hyaluronan (HA) is a high-molecular-weight glycosaminoglycan and widely distributed in all connective tissues and organs with diverse biological functions. HA has been increasingly used as dietary supplements targeted to joint and skin health for humans. We here first report isolation of bacteria from human feces that are capable of degrading HA to lower molecular weight HA oligosaccharides (oligo-HAs). The bacteria were successfully isolated via a selective enrichment method, in which the serially diluted feces of healthy Japanese donors were individually incubated in an enrichment medium containing HA, followed by the isolation of candidate strains from streaked HA-containing agar plates and selection of HA-degrading strains by measuring HA using an ELISA. Subsequent genomic and biochemical assays identified the strains as Bacteroides finegoldii, B. caccae, B. thetaiotaomicron, and Fusobacterium mortiferum. Furthermore, our HPLC analysis revealed that the strains degraded HA to oligo-HAs of various lengths. Subsequent quantitative PCR assay targeting the HA degrading bacteria showed that their distribution in the Japanese donors varied. The evidence suggests that dietary HA is degraded by the human gut microbiota with individual variation to oligo-HAs components, which are more absorbable than HA, thereby exerting its beneficial effects.

    It is generally recognized that the main function of α-tocopherol (αToc), which is the most active form of vitamin E, is its antioxidant effect, while non-antioxidant effects have also been reported. We previously found that αToc ameliorates diabetic nephropathy via diacylglycerol kinase alpha (DGKα) activation in vivo, and the activation was not related to the antioxidant effect. However, the underlying mechanism of how αToc activates DGKα have been enigmatic. We report that the membrane-bound 67 kDa laminin receptor (67LR), which has previously been shown to serve as a receptor for epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), also contains a novel binding site for vitamin E, and its association with Vitamin E mediates DGKα activation by αToc. We employed hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX/MS) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to identify the specific binding site of αToc on the 67LR and discovered the conformation of the specific hydrophobic pocket that accommodates αToc. Also, HDX/MS and MD simulations demonstrated the detailed binding of EGCG to a water-exposed hydrophilic site on 67LR, while in contrast αToc binds to a distinct hydrophobic site. We demonstrated that 67LR triggers an important signaling pathway mediating non-antioxidant effects of αToc, such as DGKα activation. This is the first evidence demonstrating a membrane receptor for αToc and one of the underlying mechanisms of a non-antioxidant function for αToc.

    Protein homeostasis, including protein folding, refolding, and degradation, is thought to decline with aging. HSPB5 (also known as αB-crystallin) prevents target protein aggregation as a molecular chaperone and exhibits a cytoprotective function against various cell stresses. To elucidate the effect of HSPB5 on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, we searched for novel binding proteins of HSPB5 using the proximity-dependent biotin labeling method. Proteins presumed to interact with HSPB5 in cells treated with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 were identified by a reversible biotin-binding capacity method combining tamavidin2-REV magnetic beads and mass spectrometry. We discovered a new binding protein for HSPB5, polo-like kinase 2 (PLK2), which is an apoptosis-related enzyme. The expression of PLK2 was upregulated by MG132 treatment, and it was co-localized with HSPB5 near the ER in L6 muscle cells. Inhibition of PLK2 decreased ER stress-induced phosphorylation of serine 19 in HSPB5 and increased apoptosis by activation of caspase 3 under ER stress. Overexpression of HSPB5 (WT) suppressed the ER stress-induced caspase 3 activity, but this was not observed with phospho-deficient HSPB5 (3A) mutants. These results clarify the role of HSPB5 phosphorylation during ER stress and suggest that the PLK2/HSPB5 pathway plays an essential role in cytoprotection against proteasome inhibition-induced ER stress.

    Japanese Black cattle (Japanese Wagyu) beef is attracting attention for its aroma and marbling, and its handling is increasing worldwide. Here, we focused on the origin discrimination of Wagyu beef and analyzed the nutritional components of Japanese Wagyu (produced in multiple prefectures of Japan), Hybrid Wagyu (a cross between Angus and Wagyu cattle born in Australia and transported to Japan), and Australian Wagyu beef using mass spectrometry (MS). Triple-quadrupole liquid chromatography-MS was used to clarify the molecular species of lipids in Wagyu beef. Fourteen classes of lipids were separated, and 128 different triacylglycerides (TGs) were detected. A simple comparative analysis of these TGs using high-performance liquid chromatography revealed significantly higher levels of triolein (C18:1/C18:1/C18:1; abbreviated OOO) and C18:1/C18:1/C16:1 (OOPo) in Japanese Wagyu. Wagyu elements beef were comprehensively analyzed using inductively coupled plasma (ICP)-MS and ICP-optical emission spectrometry. We found significant differences in the rubidium, cesium, and lithium levels of Japanese and Australian Wagyu beef. On comparing metabolites using gas chromatography-MS, we identified significant differences in the levels of amino acids and other components of the Japanese and Australian Wagyu beef. These results suggest the possibility of determining the origin of Wagyu cattle breeds using MS and genetic discrimination.

    Aroma is an essential factor for meat quality. The meat of Japanese Black cattle exhibits fine marbling and a rich and sweet aroma with a characteristic lactone composition. The mechanism of lactone formation associated with beef aroma has not been elucidated. In this study, we examined the precursors of γ-hexalactone, an indicator of the sweet aroma of beef and identified the mechanism underlying γ-hexalactone production. A low-temperature vacuum system was used to prepare beef tallow from Japanese Black cattle and Holstein cattle. The odor components were identified using headspace-gas chromatography. The analysis revealed that γ-hexalactone, γ-dodecalactone, δ-tetradecalactone, and δ-hexadecalactone were present as sweet aroma components of beef tallow prepared from marbling and muscle. Since we previously reported that γ-hexalactone formation correlates with linoleic acid content in beef, we analyzed ten oxidized fatty acids derived from linoleic acid by liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry and detected two hydroxy-octadecadienoic acids (9S-HODE and 13S-HODE) in beef tallow. Significant differences in arachidonic acid 15-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase protein expression levels among subcutaneous fat, intramuscular fat, and muscle tissue were observed. Our results suggest that the combination of linoleic acid and the expression of lipid oxidase derived from beef muscle and intramuscular fat produce hydroxy fatty acids that result in a sweet aroma.

    Diacylglycerol kinase β (DGKβ) is an enzyme that converts diacylglycerol to phosphatidic acid and is mainly expressed in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and striatum. We previously reported that DGKβ induces neurite outgrowth and spinogenesis, contributing to higher brain functions, including emotion and memory. To elucidate the mechanisms involved in neuronal development by DGKβ, we investigated the importance of DGKβ activity in the induction of neurite outgrowth using human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Interestingly, both wild-type DGKβ and the kinase-negative (KN) mutant partially induced neurite outgrowth, and these functions shared a common pathway via the activation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). In addition, we found that DGKβ interacted with the small GTPase RalA and that siRNA against RalA and phospholipase D (PLD) inhibitor treatments abolished DGKβKN-induced neurite outgrowth. These results indicate that binding of RalA and activation of PLD and mTORC1 are involved in DGKβKN-induced neurite outgrowth. Taken together with our previous reports, mTORC1 is a key molecule in both kinase-dependent and kinase-independent pathways of DGKβ-mediated neurite outgrowth, which is important for higher brain functions.

    Japanese Black cattle (Japanese Wagyu) have a unique phenotype in which ectopic intramuscular fat accumulates in skeletal muscle, producing finely marbled beef. However, the mechanism of intramuscular fat formation in Japanese Black cattle remains unclear. To investigate the key genes involved in intramuscular fat accumulation, we comprehensively analyzed mRNA levels in subcutaneous and intramuscular fat tissues using RNA sequence (RNA-seq) analysis, which detected 27,606 genes. We identified eight key genes, namely carboxypeptidase E, tenascin C, transgelin, collagen type IV alpha 5 (COL4A5), cysteine and glycine-rich protein 2, PDZ, and LIM domain 3, phosphatase 1 regulatory inhibitor subunit 14A, and regulator of calcineurin 2. These genes were highly and specifically expressed in intramuscular fat tissue. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed a collagen network, including COL4A5, in the basement membrane around the intramuscular fat tissue. Moreover, pathway analysis revealed that, in intramuscular fat tissue, differentially expressed genes are related to cell adhesion, proliferation, and cancer pathways. Furthermore, pathway analysis showed that the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and small GTPases regulators RASGRP3, ARHGEF26, ARHGAP10, ARHGAP24, and DLC were upregulated in intramuscular fat. Our study suggests that these genes are involved in intramuscular fat formation in Japanese Black cattle.

    Sensing physical forces is a critical first step in mechano-transduction of cells. Zyxin, a LIM domain-containing protein, is recruited to force-bearing actin filaments and is thought to repair and strengthen them. Yet, the precise force-induced protein interactions surrounding zyxin remain unclear. Using BioID analysis, we identified proximal proteins surrounding zyxin under normal and force-bearing conditions by label-free mass spectrometry analysis. Under force-bearing conditions, increased biotinylation of α-actinin 1, α-actinin 4, and AFAP1 were detected, and these proteins accumulated along force-bearing actin fibers independently from zyxin, albeit at a lower intensity than zyxin. VASP also accumulated along force-bearing actin fibers in a zyxin-dependent manner, but the biotinylation of VASP remained constant regardless of force, supporting the model of a free zyxin-VASP complex in the cytoplasm being corecruited to tensed actin fibers. In addition, ARHGAP42, a RhoA GAP, was also identified as a proximal protein of zyxin and colocalized with zyxin along contractile actin bundles. The overexpression of ARHGAP42 reduced the rate of small wound closure, a zyxin-dependent process. These results demonstrate that the application of proximal biotinylation can resolve the proximity and composition of protein complexes as a function of force, which had not been possible with traditional biochemical analysis.

    The meat from Japanese Black cattle (Japanese Wagyu) is finely marbled and exhibits a rich and sweet aroma known as Wagyu beef aroma. To clarify the key metabolites involved in the aroma, we analyzed the correlation between lactone and lipid composition in Japanese Black cattle. Using gas chromatography-olfactometry, we identified 39 characteristic odorants of the intermuscular fat. Seven characteristic lactones considered to be involved in Wagyu beef aroma were quantified and compared in the marbled area and intermuscular fat using a stable isotope dilution assay. Among them, γ-hexalactone was the only lactone whose level was significantly higher in the marbled area. To explore the lipid species involved in lactone formation, we analyzed samples with different aroma characteristics. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry revealed eight lipid classes and showed significant differences in triacylglycerides (TAGs). To determine the molecular species of TAGs, we performed high-performance liquid chromatography analysis and identified 14 TAG species. However, these analyses showed that seven lactones had a low correlation with the TAGs. However, γ-hexalactone showed a positive correlation with linoleic acid. This study suggests that lipid composition affects the characteristic lactone profile involved in the Wagyu beef aroma.

    Senescence-accelerated mouse prone 8 (SAMP8) is an animal model of age-related central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Although SAMP8 shows deficits in learning, memory, and emotion, its motor coordination has not been clarified. We have recently reported that DGKγ-regulated PKCγ activity is important for cerebellar motor coordination. However, involvement of the functional correlation between the kinases in age-related motor dyscoordination still remains unknown. Therefore, we have investigated the motor coordination in SAMP8 and involvement of the functional correlation between DGKγ and PKCγ in the age-related motor dyscoordination. Although 6 weeks old SAMP8 showed equivalent motor coordination with control mice (SAMR1) in the rotarod test, 24 weeks old SAMP8 exhibited significantly less latency in the rotarod test and more frequent slips in the beam test compared to the age-matched SAMR1. Furthermore, 24 weeks old SAMP8 showed the higher locomotor activity in open field test and Y-maze test. Western blotting revealed that DGKγ expression decreased in the cerebellum of 24 weeks old SAMP8, while PKCγ was upregulated. These results suggest that SAMP8 is a useful model of age-related motor dysfunction and that the DGKγ-regulated PKCγ activity is involved in the age-related motor dyscoordination.

    Beef from Japanese Black cattle (Japanese Wagyu) is renowned for its flavor characteristics. To clarify the key metabolites contributing to this rich and sweet aroma of beef, an omics analysis combined with GC-olfactometry (GC-O) and metabolomics analysis with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were applied. GC-O analysis identified 39 odor-active odorants from the volatile fraction of boiled beef distilled by solvent-assisted flavor evaporation. Eight odorants predicted to contribute to Wagyu beef aroma were compared between Japanese Black cattle and Holstein cattle using a stable isotope dilution assay with GC-tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry. By correlating the sensory evaluation values of retronasal aroma, γ-hexalactone, γ-d2ecalactone, and γ-undecalactone showed a high correlation with the Wagyu beef aroma. Metabolomics data revealed a high correlation between the amounts of odorants and multiple metabolites, such as glutamine, decanoic acid, lactic acid, and phosphoric acid. These results provide useful information for assessing the aroma and quality of beef.

    Background: Global warming causes severe heat conditions. Heat stress contributes to higher morbidity of heatstroke in human and mortality in livestock. To protect them from heat stress, thermotolerance mechanisms were widely studied, and some studies suggest relationship between heat shock proteins (HSPs) and thermotolerance. HSPs were not induced by only heat shock but also some stimulations including bioactive compounds from plants. Zingiber zerumbet is a perennial herb found in many tropical countries, including Thailand. The rhizome of Zingiber zerumbet contains zerumbone that is a bioactive compound to induce HSPs expression in animal cells.Objective: To prevent higher morbidity of heatstroke in human and mortality in livestock by the heat stress, we investigated the effect of zerumbone, the extract of Zingiber zerumbet Smith, on thermotolerance, using a cell line and mice.Methods: The murine liver hepatoma cell line, Hepa1c1c7 cells, were incubated in medium supplemented with extract from rhizome of Zingiber zerumbet Simith containing zerumbone, and then the expression of heat shock proteins (HSP) 40, 70 and 90 were investigated by western blotting. Furthermore, we established the evaluation system of thermotolerance using mice, and studied the effect of the extract on the growth rate of mice under the heat shock treatment. Briefly, 4 weeks old C57BL6 mice were fed that with the extract (or vehicle) for a week before the first heat shock treatment (38 °C for an hour). Before and after five days heat treatment, body weights were measured. The protein expressions of heat shock proteins in liver were measured by western blotting using HSPs antibodies.Results: The extract of Zingiber zerumbet rhizome, equivalent to 50 μM zerumbone, significantly increased the expression of heat shock proteins (HSP40, HSP70, HSP90). The growth rate of the mice under the heat treatment were lower than control. The feeding with the extract containing 25 ppm zerumbone have significantly attenuated the decline of the growth rate led by the heat treatment, whereas there was little effect on mouse growth rate grown under normal conditions. The protein expression of HSP70 in the liver of zerumbone-fed mice was upregulated compared with control mice, equivalent to heat treatment without zerumbone. On the other hand, both treatments of zerumbone and heat resulted in highest HSP70 expression among four groups.Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that oral administration of the extract of Zingiber zerumbet Smith led to the attenuation of decline of growth rate induced by heat treatment. HSP70 expression in murine liver was enhanced by either feeding the extract or heat treatment. More interestingly, HSP70 expression was further enhanced by both treatments of zerumbone and heat. These results suggested that zerumbone may contribute to thermotolerance via, at least, HSP70 expression.Keywords: Zingiber zerumbet, thermotolerance, heat shock protein

    AbstractSignificant efforts have been made to ameliorate diabetic nephropathy (DN) by inhibiting protein kinase C. However, these efforts have not been successful in human trials, suggesting that novel therapeutic strategies are required. Thus far, it has been reported that green tea polyphenol epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) improved albuminuria in DN in a human trial. Our previous study revealed that activation of diacylglycerol kinase α (DGKα) plays a crucial role in the amelioration of DN and that EGCg activates DGKα. Here, we investigated whether and how DGKα contributes to the amelioration of DN upon stimulation by EGCg by using streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic model mice. Our results revealed that EGCg ameliorated albuminuria in DN through DGKα in vivo, and methylated EGCg, which has higher absorption in the plasma improved albuminuria in DN effectively. Additionally, we showed that c-Src mediated EGCg-induced DGKα translocation and colocalized with the 67 kDa laminin receptor, which is an EGCg receptor. Furthermore, EGCg attenuated the loss of podocytes in DN by preventing a decrease in focal adhesion under high glucose conditions. Our results indicate that the DGKα pathway is an attractive therapeutic target and that activating this pathway is a novel strategy for treating DN.

    Diacylglycerol kinase γ (DGKγ) is a lipid kinase to convert diacylglycerol (DG) to phosphatidic acid (PA) and indirectly regulates protein kinase C γ (PKCγ) activity. We previously reported that the basal PKCγ upregulation impairs cerebellar long-term depression (LTD) in the conventional DGKγ knockout (KO) mice. However, the precise mechanism in impaired cerebellar LTD by upregulated PKCγ has not been clearly understood. Therefore, we first produced Purkinje cell-specific DGKγ KO (tm1d) mice to investigate the specific function of DGKγ in Purkinje cells and confirmed that tm1d mice showed cerebellar motor dysfunction in the rotarod and beam tests, and the basal PKCγ upregulation but not PKCα in the cerebellum of tm1d mice. Then, the LTD-induced chemical stimulation, K-glu (50 mM KCl + 100 µM, did not induce phosphorylation of PKCα and dissociation of GluR2 and glutamate receptor interacting protein (GRIP) in the acute cerebellar slices of tm1d mice. Furthermore, treatment with the PKCγ inhibitor, scutellarin, rescued cerebellar LTD, with the phosphorylation of PKCα and the dissociation of GluR2 and GRIP. In addition, nonselective transient receptor potential cation channel type 3 (TRPC3) was negatively regulated by upregulated PKCγ. These results demonstrated that DGKγ contributes to cerebellar LTD by regulation of the basal PKCγ activity.

    In the past decades, metabolomics has been used to comprehensively understand a variety of food materials for improvement and assessment of food quality. Farm animal skeletal muscles and meat are one of the major targets of metabolomics for the characterization of meat and the exploration of biomarkers in the production system. For identification of potential biomarkers to control meat quality, studies of animal muscles and meat with metabolomics (MEATabolomics) has been conducted in combination with analyses of meat quality traits, focusing on specific factors associated with animal genetic background and sensory scores, or conditions in feeding system and treatments of meat in the processes such as postmortem storage, processing, and hygiene control. Currently, most of MEATabolomics approaches combine separation techniques (gas or liquid chromatography, and capillary electrophoresis)-mass spectrometry (MS) or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) approaches with the downstream multivariate analyses, depending on the polarity and/or hydrophobicity of the targeted metabolites. Studies employing these approaches provide useful information to monitor meat quality traits efficiently and to understand the genetic background and production system of animals behind the meat quality. MEATabolomics is expected to improve the knowledge and methodologies in animal breeding and feeding, meat storage and processing, and prediction of meat quality.

    Diacylglycerol kinase β (DGKβ) is an enzyme converting DG to phosphatidic acid (PA) and is specifically expressed in neurons, especially those in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and striatum. We previously reported that DGKβ induces neurite outgrowth and spinogenesis, contributing to higher brain function including emotion and memory, and plasma membrane localization of DGKβ via the C1 domain and a cluster of basic amino acids at the C-terminus is necessary for its function. To clarify the mechanisms involved in neuronal development by DGKβ, we investigated whether DGKβ activity induces neurite outgrowth using human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. DGKβ induced neurite outgrowth by activation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) through a kinase-dependent pathway. In addition, in primary cultured cortical and hippocampal neurons, inhibition of mTORC1 abolished DGKβ induced-neurite outgrowth, branching and spinogenesis. These results indicated that DGKβ induces neurite outgrowth and spinogenesis by activating mTORC1 in a kinase-dependent pathway.

    Progress in metabolomic analysis now allows the evaluation of food quality. This study aims to identify the metabolites in meat from livestock using a metabolomic approach. Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS), many metabolites were reproducibly detected in meats, and distinct differences between livestock species (cattle, pigs, and chickens) were indicated. A comparison of metabolites between tissues types (muscle, intramuscular fat, and intermuscular fat) in marbled beef of Japanese Black cattle revealed that most metabolites are abundant in the muscle tissue. Several metabolites (medium-chain fatty acids, etc.) involved in triacylglycerol synthesis were uniquely detected in fat tissue. Additionally, the results of multivariate analysis suggest that GC/MS analysis of metabolites can distinguish between cattle breeds. These results provide useful information for the analysis of meat quality using GC/MS-based metabolomic analysis.ABBREVIATIONS: GC/MS: gas chromatography-mass spectrometry; NMR: nuclear magnetic resonance; MS: mass spectrometry; IS: 2-isopropylmalic acid; MSTFA: N-Methyl-N-trimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide; CV: coefficient of variation; TBS: Tris-buffered saline; MHC: myosin fast type; PCA: principal component analysis; OPLS-DA: orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis; O2PLS: two-way orthogonal partial least-squares.

    Paratropomyosin (PTM) composes myofibril functions to weaken the rigor linkages formed between actin and myosin during postmortem aging of muscles. PTM has the similar physico-chemical properties as tropomyosin (TM) that is a regulatory protein of myofibrils. So far, it is unclear whether PTM is definitely different from TM, because the primary structure of PTM has not been determined yet. The aim of this study was to clarify structural difference of PTM from TM. PTM was prepared by column chromatography immediately after slaughter from broiler breast muscle, and purified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Purified PTM was successfully separated from TM, and the recovered PTM molecule was reduced with dithiothreitol to separate again by HPLC. Two subunits were obtained and peptides from each digested subunit by V8 protease were recovered by HPLC, and then amino acid sequences of the peptides were analyzed by protein sequencing. As a result, some amino acid residues were replaced from that of TMα1 isoform which is the major isoform of TM, and also was different between the two subunits. Therefore, it is concluded that PTM clearly differs from TM and it is suggested that functional difference in PTM from TM is attributed to amino acid replacements in subunits composing PTM.

    Our previous report demonstrated that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) promotes translocation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) in skeletal muscle. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanism of GLUT4 translocation by EGCg at the physiological concentration range. In L6 cells, EGCg induced phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositide 3'-kinase (PI3K) and downstream protein kinase C (PKC) λ/ξ without affecting the phosphorylation of insulin receptor and Akt. EGCg-induced GLUT4 translocation was suppressed by RNA interference-mediated knockdown of PI3K and treatment with PKC inhibitor Go6983. Moreover, EGCg increased Rac1 activity and actin remodelling as downstream events of PKCλ/ξ. These results indicate that EGCg induced GLUT4 translocation through a PI3K-dependent pathway, but its mode of action differed from that of insulin. EGCg also induced GLUT4 translocation through a 5'-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-dependent pathway. 67 kDa laminin receptor, which is a target molecule of EGCg, was not involved in EGCg-induced glucose uptake in L6 cells. The oral administration of EGCg suppressed postprandial hyperglycaemia accompanied by GLUT4 translocation through both PI3K- and AMPK-dependent pathways, and promoted glycogen accumulation in skeletal muscle of ICR mice. EGCg promotes GLUT4 translocation through both PI3K- and AMPK-dependent pathways and glycogen accumulation in skeletal muscle.

    The small GTPase RalA has been implicated in glucose uptake in insulin-stimulated adipocytes, although it remains unclear whether RalA has a similar role in insulin signaling in other types of cells. Recently, we have demonstrated that the Rho family GTPase Rac1 has a critical role in insulin-dependent glucose uptake in myoblast culture and mouse skeletal muscle. However, the mechanisms underlying Rac1-dependent glucose uptake, mostly mediated by the plasma membrane translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4, remain largely unknown. The purpose of this study is to examine the involvement of RalA in Rac1 regulation of the translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane in muscle cells. Ectopic expression of a constitutively activated RalA mutant indeed stimulated GLUT4 translocation, suggesting an important role of RalA also in muscle cells. GLUT4 translocation induced by constitutively activated mutation of Rac1 or more physiologically by upstream Rac1 regulators, such as phosphoinositide 3 kinase and the guanine nucleotide exchange factor FLJ00068, was abrogated when the expression of RalA was downregulated by RNA interference. The expression of constitutively activated Rac1, on the other hand, caused GTP loading and subcellular redistribution of RalA. Collectively, we propose a novel mechanism involving RalA for Rac1-mediated GLUT4 translocation in skeletal muscle cells.

    Relationship between intramuscular fat and taste-traits of Japanese Black Wagyu beef which is well known as “marbling” and delicious beef was clarified in terms of the amounts of intramuscular free fatty acid (FFA). The amounts of FFA in beef broth prepared from Japanese Black Wagyu beef stored at 4℃ increased during postmortem aging, but not so in Holstein beef broth. As the results of estimation of taste-traits of broth sample by an electronic taste sensing system, some taste elements like acid bitterness showed high values and increased with postmortem time, indicating that increased FFA was possible to affect taste-traits of broth sample of Japanese Black Wagyu beef. Carrying out of Ca2+-imaging method are successively challenged in order to detect whether FFAs stimulate to taste cells prepared from mouse taste bud, and thereby possibly influence taste-traits of beef broth.

    Rho family GTPase RhoA has been known to be involved in the muscular development and reconstruction. However, the role of RhoA in IGF-1-induced muscular hypertrophy remain to be revealed. To investigate the regulatory mechanism of RhoA activation, we used muscular hypertrophy model of C2C12 cells. After IGF-I treatment, protein level of RhoA was upregulated, and activated RhoA was continuously increased in hypertrophic myotubes.RhoA dominant-negative mutant impaired prominent hypertrophy, and inhibited IGF-1-depending p38 MAPK activation and M-cadherin-shift, which are required for muscular differentiation.These results indicate that RhoA involves in multiple steps of IGF-I-induced muscular hypertrophy. To identify the key molecule in this mechanism, we designed RhoA tagged with promiscuous biotin ligase BirA and isolated several interesting RhoA binding candidate. This study clarified one end of the activation mechanism of RhoA related to muscular hypertrophy by IGF-1.

    A myofibrillar protein, paratropomyosin weakens the rigor linkages between actin and myosin, and contributes to meat tenderization. Paratropomyosin was found at the A-I junction of myofibrils in living muscle and in muscle immediately postmortem. In chicken breast muscle paratropomyosin binds to connectin when examining binding of paratropomyosin at the A-I junction. In the present study, we produced all recombinant domains that constituted the connectin fragment at the junction and examined binding of paratropomyosin to each domain on PVDF membrane in order to clarify more precise binding site in connectin molecule. On the other hand, polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies produced against the connectin 20-kDa fragment, which was located in The Z-disk region and increased in chicken sarcoplasm with postmortem aging, were characterized in order to utilize for estimating meat aging.

    低分子量GTPaseであるRasファミリーとRhoファミリーは、細胞内シグナル伝達のON/OFFを制御する分子スイッチとして機能しており、これらの活性調節異常は癌の発症に深く関与している。我々は、活性型低分子量GTPaseとエフェクター分子の特異的な結合特性に基づき、様々なエフェクター分子由来のポリペプチドプローブを作製し、低分子量GTPaseの活性化を免疫染色の要領で検出する方法を開発した。18年度は、Rasに対する新規プローブの開発を目指して、候補に挙がったエフェクター分子からプローブを作製し、低分子量GTPaseに対する特異性の検討を行った。また、プローブの検出感度の向上を目指して、エフェクター分子の結合ドメインを複数個繋ぐ事により結合力の強化を図った。活性の定量化法としては、データの客観性を高める手段として、プローブの検出を酵素免疫染色法(ELISA)で行う比色定量法を開発した。また、共焦点顕微鏡で撮影した蛍光免疫染色画像の蛍光強度をデジタル解析する事で、細胞内の低分子量GTPaseの活性の強さを3次元的に視覚化する事が可能になった。今回作製したプローブを用いて、癌培養細胞を検討したところ、Rasの恒常的活性型変異を有する癌細胞(SW480、PANC-1)では内在性Rasの活性が強く検出された。この結果は、従来法である細胞可溶化液を用いて行うプルダウンアッセイの結果と一致していた。細胞機能の多くは、複数の低分子量GTPaseの複雑なクロストークによって制御を受けている事から、さらに低分子量GTPase毎に異なる蛍光波長で検出する事ができるプローブを作製した。低分子量GTPaseの活性型変異体を発現する細胞で検討したところ、これらのプローブを用いれば二つの低分子量GTPaseの活性を同一細胞上で同時に検出し、比較する事ができる事がわかった。

    インスリンによる血糖値降下作用は,糖輸送担体(GLUT4)の細胞膜への移行促進によって起こる。我々は,骨格筋のGLUT4の細胞膜移行の制御にアクチン細胞骨格を調節するRhoファミリー低分子量GTPaseが関与していると仮説を立て、検討している。18年度は、GLUT4にタグ配列を挿入したGFP-GLUT4-Mycを安定発現する分化効率が非常に高いL6細胞株を新に作製した。これを用いて、17年度に明らかにしたインスリン刺激で強く活性化されるRhoファミリーのRac1の機能解析を行った。筋管に分化誘導後のL6細胞にRac1の恒常的活性型変異体を、アデノウィルス発現システムを用いて過剰発現させ検討したところ、活性型Rac1はインスリン刺激と同様にアクチン細胞骨格の再構成を伴うGLUT4の細胞膜移行を強く促進した。RNAi干渉法によるRac1のノックダウンによって、L6細胞のインスリン刺激依存的なGLUT4の細胞膜移行が抑制される事から、我々はこれらの結果を個体レベルで更に検証するため、Cre/loxPシステムを用いてRac1の骨格筋特異的なノックアウトマウスを作製した。筋肉クレアチンキナーゼのプロモーター下流でCreを発現するトランスジェニックマウス(MCK-Cre)とRac1のfloxマウスを掛け合わせて、Rac1(flox/flox : MCK-Cre)マウスを作製し、後肢筋を調べたところ、タンパク質レベルでRac1の発現が著しく減少している事を確認した。
