ABSTRACT
While calpain's role in myofibrillar protein degradation is well-established, its impact on post-mortem apoptosis remains fully elucidated. This study aimed to examine how calpain influences the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in post-mortem muscle cells and assess its potential impact on chicken tenderness. The findings indicate that the calpain inhibitor treatment could decelerate the rate of lysosome destruction in post-mortem chicken, which is a crucial factor in delaying the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Subsequently, this inhibition enhanced the mitochondrial membrane's stability and suppressed the apoptosis-inducing factor Cyt c release into the sarcoplasm. The Western blot results in a greater myofibrillar protein degradation degree in the caspase inhibitor samples compared to the calpain inhibitor samples. Interestingly, the two groups had no significant difference in shear force. Based on these reasons, a novel perspective was introduced in this paper Calpain could affect the change in meat tenderness by regulating mitochondrial apoptosis in the post-mortem period.
