Cultured biomass, as a novel food ingredient, significantly contributes to providing meat-like flavor and nutrition. In this study, cultured porcine fat biomass (hereafter referred to as "biomass") was used as a fat substitute in the biomass/plant hybrid cultured meatballs (BPMs) to investigate the effect of biomass levels (0 %, 10 %, 20 %, and 30 %) on the flavor and nutritional characteristics, compared to the FPM-10 % group containing 10 % pig subcutaneous fat. Results showed that increasing biomass levels significantly enhanced the protein, fat, and total amino acid content of BPMs (p < 0.

Thus, the primary aim of this study was to screen for combinations of differentiation-inducing factors (DIF) using single-factor experiment and orthogonal experimental design under two-dimensional culture conditions for ADSCs. The results showed that a combination of DIF consisting of 1 μmol/L dexamethasone, 0.

Large-scale cell culture is the key for cultured meat products to enter the market. Therefore, this study is aimed to explore the effect of long-term passage in vitro on smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and the effect of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) on SMCs in the late passage.

The traditional adipogenic differentiation cocktail, including insulin, dexamethasone, indomethacin, isobutylmethylxanthine and rosiglitazone, has potential food safety problems in cultured fat. Therefore, the detection of these residues is necessary to ensure food safety.

Cultured meat should be further developed to appear on consumers' tables as alternative protein product. Therefore, this study used food grade peanut wire-drawing protein as scaffold to culture smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in vitro to obtain cultured meat productions containing both animal protein and plant protein.

Fat makes an important contribution to the flavor and texture of traditional meat, but there are few reports on cultured fat. Here, we demonstrated the construction of cultured fat by inoculating porcine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC) on peanut wire-drawing protein (PWP) scaffolds.

In the present study, three flavonoids (quercetin, icariin, and 3,2'-dihydroxyflavone) with multi concentrations were evaluated to promote the proliferation and differentiation of porcine muscle stem cells. In the proliferation phase, 3,2'-dihydroxyflavone (10 μM) significantly amplified the cells by 34% and up-regulated the expression of paired box transcription factor 7 (PAX7) by 60%, which was higher than quercetin (75 nM) and icariin (7.

To make cultured meat have the sensory and nutritional characteristics of conventional meat as much as possible, many studies have been conducted on various cell types and scaffold characteristics. Therefore, this study aims to produce a low-cost cultured meat with a quality closer to that of conventional meat.

Therefore, this study aimed at building a cultured meat model containing smooth muscle cells, and further evaluating the effect of smooth muscle cells on the quality of cultured meat, so as to reveal the contribution of smooth muscle cells in the production of cultured meat. In this study, we isolated high purity of smooth muscle cells from vascular tissues.
