ABSTRACT: The current study was designed to investigate the changes in the protein profiles of

16

pale, soft and exudative (PSE)-like muscles of broilers subjected to transportation under high

17

temperature conditions, using isobaric tags for relative and absolute analysis quantitation (iTRAQ).

18

Arbor Acres chickens (n = 112) were randomly divided to two treatments: unstressed control

19

(CON) and 0.5 h of transport (T). Birds were transported based on a designed protocol. Pectoralis

20

major (PM) muscle samples in the T group were collected and classified as normal (T-NOR) or

21

PSE-like (T-PSE). Plasma activities of stress indicators, muscle microstructure and proteome were

22

measured. Results indicated that broilers in the T-PSE group exhibited higher activities of plasma

23

stress indicators. The microstructure of T-PSE group showed a looser network and larger

24

intercellular spaces in comparison to the other groups. Proteomic analysis, based on iTRAQ

25

revealed 29 differentially expressed proteins in the T-NOR and T-PSE groups that were involved

26

in protein turnover, signal transduction, stress and defense, calcium handling, cell structure and

27

metabolism. In particular, proteins relating to the glycolysis pathway, calcium signaling, and

28

molecular chaperones exhibited significant differences that may contribute to the inferior

29

postmortem meat quality. Overall, the proteomic results provide a further understanding about the

30

mechanism of meat quality changes in response to stress.

INTRODUCTION

34

During the past few decades, the selection of broilers for augmented growth rate and breast

35

yield has been accompanied with severe muscle dysfunction and pectoral myopathy, among which

36

pale, soft and exudative (PSE)-like syndrome is the most serious 1. Due to the abnormal color,

37

lower water holding capacity (WHC), and impaired functional properties, it has limited value in

38

the meat-processing sector, thereby causing huge losses to the modern poultry industry 2. Previous

39

studies indicated that pre-slaughter stressors, such as transportation conditions and environmental

40

heat, have deleterious effects on broiler welfare, and may increase the incidence of PSE-like meat

41

3, 4

.

42

The emergence of novel proteomic techniques in recent years has greatly aided with

43

developed understanding of biological mechanisms and the discovery of different meat quality

44

biomarkers

45

stress and early postmortem chilling processes, which are attributed to increased postmortem

46

glycolysis and a rapid decrease of pH 7. The use of two-dimensional electrophoresis, combined

47

with MALDI-TOF-MS, indicated that myosin-light chain 1, troponin T, and alpha-crystalline were

48

less proteolyzed and HSP27 was undetectable in the PSE zones of pig semimembranosus muscle,

49

indicating a probable difference in the underlying physiological mechanism derived from stress 8.

and found proteins differ in metabolism, oxidative stress response, muscle structure, and signal

transduction. The decreased expression of stress-related proteins was correlated with an impaired

53

WHC when compared with the normal, illustrating the significance of the stress response in the

54

improvement of WHC.

Research on alterations in proteins in pectoralis major (PM) muscle of broilers in response to

56

stress and the mechanism triggering the development of PSE-like meat is limited. In addition, the

57

reason for the variation in meat quality caused by intra-broiler variability in response to stress

58

remains unclear. To depict the potential mechanism of meat quality development, isobaric tags for

59

relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ)-labeling combined with LC-MS/MS were used for

60

identifying the changes in protein profiles in the PM muscle of broilers, based on categorized

61

normal and PSE-like muscles collected after subjecting broilers to acute transport under high

62

ambient temperature.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

64

Experimental design. Arbor Acres broiler chickens (n = 112) at 42 day of age, with an

65

average weight of 2.75 kg, were divided to two treatments: control (CON) and 0.5 h transport (T).

66

All procedures were consistent as recommended by the Commercial Broiler Management Guide.

67

Feed and water were withdrawn 8 h prior to slaughter. Birds were held in crates (760mm ×

68

480mm × 380mm) containing seven birds each with 8 replicates, totaling 56 birds that were then

69

distributed at the rear of a truck. The birds in the T group were transported at an average speed of

70

45 km/h on a flat road. The ambient temperature was about 33°C, and the temperature inside the

71

crate was about 41°C during transportation. All birds were slaughtered in accordance with the

72

commercial slaughter process, using electrical stunning, then exsanguination via the carotid

73

arteries and jugular veins, followed by scalding and evisceration. Blood was collected in

74

heparinized tubes and mixed gently. The tubes were centrifuged at 2,000 g at 4°C for 10 min and

75

the supernatant was kept at -20°C for stress indicator determinations. Immediately after

76

exsanguination, ten grams of the right PM muscle was taken quickly, frozen in liquid nitrogen and 4

stored at -80°C for proteome measurements. The other muscles were used for assessment of

78

muscle pH at 0.5 h, meat quality and histological analysis at 24 h postmortem.
