Article Abstract
Cultured meat is an innovative meat-production technology that does not rely on animal husbandry. As a new food component, cultured fat is of great significance to cultured meat. In this study, we isolated adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and identified the purity by immunofluorescence staining of ADSC-specific surface marker proteins CD44 and CD29 and showed that most of the cells were positive for CD29 and CD44. In addition, we detected the expression of and to confirm that ADSCs differentiated into mature adipocytes at 10 days post-induction. Subsequently, the culture conditions of ADSCs on microcarriers (MCs) were optimized and showed that cell density of living cells reached their highest after 5 days when continuously stirring at 50 rpm. Finally, the expression of and was detected to confirm the adipogenic differentiation ability of ADSCs on 2D and 3D culture systems and showed that ADSCs maintained their adipogenic differentiation ability after expansion on MCs. In conclusion, this research demonstrated that reliance on MCs to expand ADSCs was a promising approach for production of cultured fat.

At moderate protein concentrations (10, 20 mg/mL) and a high temperature (80 °C), meat protein (MP) self-assembled into weak gels and then intriguingly collapsed into microgels through continuous heating and annealing cooling, resulting in a sol state with exposed hydrophobic groups and disulfide bonds. The different prepared microgel groups were labeled as MP and MP, respectively. Compared with the control group (Con: 7.

Cultured meat represents an innovative alternative to conventional livestock-derived meat, yet faces challenges in establishing efficient, safe, and sustainable culture systems. Although traditional supplements such as fetal bovine serum and bovine eye fluid provide essential growth factors for cell proliferation, their high cost, ethical concerns, and biosafety risks significantly hinder large-scale industrialization. In recent years, protein hydrolysates have emerged as promising components in serum-free media.

Cultivating fat for edible tissue presents significant challenges, due to the high costs associated with growth and differentiation factors, alongside the poor viability of adipocytes resulting from cell clustering. Additionally, there is a gap in research regarding the rapid accumulation of fats within cells. To that end, this study presents the development of a biodegradable soy protein colloidosome system for an efficient application: direct delivery of oils into bovine satellite cells, enabling rapid intracellular fat accumulation without the need for adipogenic differentiation.

This paper aims to explore the feasibility of enhancing the printing performance of 3D-printed meat analogues by varying the substitution amount of camellia seed cake protein (SCP) in the edible ink system based on proteins and polysaccharides. It covers the ink formulation, rheological properties and product analysis. The addition of SCP can significantly enhance the apparent viscosity, mechanical strength, and water retention capacity of the inks.
