Rumen-Protected Betaine Improves Meat Quality in Tibetan Sheep by Influencing Intramuscular Fat Deposition, Antioxidant Capacity, and Fatty Acid Composition

Background: Intramuscular fat (IMF) is a key determinant of meat sensory quality, but the effects of rumen-protected betaine (RPB) on IMF deposition in Tibetan sheep remain unclear. Methods: Sixty male, 3-month-old Tibetan lambs (Initial weight 17.72 ± 1.36 kg) were randomly assigned to a control (basal diet, n = 30) o...

Effects of rumen-protected guanidinoacetic acid on fat deposition, antioxidant capacity, fatty acid profiles in subcutaneous adipose of Tibetan sheep: integrated RNA-seq and LC-MS/MS analysis

Introduction The subcutaneous fat exerts energy storage and protective effects. However, excessive fat deposition results in waste of biological resources and compromises meat quality. According to the biological function, we hypothesized that GAA's could reduce subcutaneous fat deposition in Tibetan sheep. Methods A t...

Dietary urea levels induce morphological damage of cells, lipid metabolism disorders, and ammonia accumulation in subcutaneous fat in Tibetan sheep

Introduction Urea shows substantial potential as a cost-effective alternative to soybean meal in ruminant production. Given the critical role of subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in meat quality, this study evaluated the effects of different dietary urea levels on the histomorphology, fatty acid composition, lipidomic...
