▼ La recherche des marqueurs biologiques de la tendreté a fait l’objet de nombreux travaux chez les animaux producteurs de viande et en particulier les bovins. A l’issue de ces études, une expression différentielle de la protéine Hsp27 entre des groupes de tendreté extrême a été mise en évidence. Cette protéine est présente à un « carrefour » biologique de l’interactome lié à la tendreté. Comprendre les mécanismes d’action de la protéine Hsp27 dans la tendreté de la viande bovine est l'un des défis de recherche dans le domaine de la production de viande. Dans cette optique, mon travail de thèse (2010-2013) avait pour objectif d’analyser le rôle de Hsp27 dans le développement du
muscle et son implication dans le déterminisme des caractéristiques des tissus liés à la qualité de la viande. La première étape de ce travail a consisté à produire un modèle de souris présentant une inactivation du gène de la protéine Hsp27 (KO HspB1) et d’analyser leur phénotype comparativement à des témoins. Les souris KO HspB1 sont viables, fertiles et ne présentent aucune anomalie majeure, mais ont un format plus petit que celui de leurs témoins. L’analyse de leurs caractéristiques musculaires par une technique immunohistoligique mise au point spécifiquement (Publication 1) n’a pas révélé de différences. Au niveau ultrastructural, l'observation du
muscle des souris par microscopie électronique à transmission a révélé des différences ultrastructurales entre les deux génotypes à T0 post-mortem avec des écarts entre les myofibrilles très espacées chez les souris KO HspB1 et un appareil contractile musculaire moins organisé. Ces différences sont encore plus marquées à T72 heures post-mortem. Ainsi le phénotype musculaire fin des souris KO HspB1 est plus altéré (Publication 2). Une analyse bio-informatique a été réalisée dans l'objectif de compléter la liste des interacteurs de la protéine Hsp27 et des gènes cibles de l’invalidation d’HspB1 susceptibles de participer à des différences de structure du
muscle et de la tendreté. Les partenaires ou cibles prédits de Hsp27 sont des protéines impliquées dans différentes fonctions, comme des Heat shock proteines, des régulateurs de l'apoptose, des facteurs de traduction, des protéines du cytosquelette et des antioxydants. Les abondances de 15 protéines ont été quantifiées par Western-bloting dans deux muscles (m. Soleus, m. Tibialis). Elles sont modifiées chez les souris dépourvues de Hsp27 principalement dans le
muscle le plus oxydatif. Cette étude démontre l'existence de liens fonctionnels entre Hsp27 et ses cibles prédites qui pourraient participer au phénotype fin des souris (Publication 3). Pour compléter cette étude, une analyse protéomique du
muscle Tibialis anterior a été menée en utilisant la technique d’électrophorèse bidimensionnelle couplée à la spectrométrie de masse. La comparaison des protéomes spécifiques de ces deux génotypes a permis de mettre en évidence des profils d’expression différents pour plusieurs protéines. Elle confirme l’effet
muscle spécifique du KO et révèle un lien avec…

▼ Un des enjeux de la filière bovine est la maîtrise et la prédiction de la tendreté de la viande, critère important pour les consommateurs. Inscrite dans le programme européen ProSafeBeef, ma thèse avait pour objectif de mieux prédire la tendreté par méta-analyse à partir des caractéristiques biochimiques du muscle. Pour cela, mon travail de thèse s’est appuyé sur la base de données BIF-Beef regroupant des données individuelles issues de plusieurs programmes de recherche, allant de l’animal à la viande en passant par la carcasse et le muscle. Une première méta-analyse a montré que le muscle Semitendinosus (ST) est de type plus rapide glycolytique que le Longissimus thoracis (LT) chez les mâles entiers et les femelles mais pas chez les mâles castrés. Après avoir identifié par une approche par classe de tendreté les caractéristiques musculaires associées à la tendreté, nous avons montré que ces caractéristiques sont différentes entre muscles et types d’animaux. Dans le muscle LT des taurillons, la surface moyenne des fibres musculaires est la variable qui joue le principal rôle sur la tendreté sensorielle où elle explique 2% de la variabilité des notes de tendreté. Principalement dans le muscle ST, les teneurs en collagène total et insoluble et l’activité enzymatique du métabolisme glycolytique expliquent au plus 6% chacun de la variabilité de la force de cisaillement. Malgré ces faibles parts de variabilité expliquée de la tendreté, ces conclusions validées sur un grand volume de données sont importantes pour préparer de nouveaux projets visant à compléter cette démarche en prenant en compte d’autres caractéristiques telles que des biomarqueurs génomiques.
The control of beef tenderness is essential for beef producers and retailers to deliver a consistently high quality product to consumers. Being part of the European program ProSafeBeef, my thesis aimed to predict beef tenderness by meta-analysis approaches using biochemical characteristics of muscles. To achieve this goal, we used data available in the BIF-Beef data warehouse which contains animal, carcass, muscle and meat measurements from different research programs. From available data on Longissimus thoracis (LT) and Semitendinosus (ST) muscles, we demonstrated that ST was faster and more glycolytic than LT in both entire males and females but not in steers. With a cluster analysis, we identified muscle biochemical traits associated with meat tenderness. Then, we demonstrated that no specific muscle biochemical characteristic can be a predictor of tenderness for all muscles and animal types. In LT muscle of young bulls, mean muscle fibre area explained 2% of the variability in sensory tenderness score. Mainly in ST muscle, total and insoluble collagen content and enzymatic indicators of glycolytic metabolism each explained about 6% of the variation in shear force. Although we were only able to explain a relatively small proportion of the total variance in tenderness, these results will form an important basis for the design of future experiments and the…

▼ The overall aim of this thesis was to compare the effect of acupuncture, physical training and relaxation training on chronic tension-type headache (CTTH) and related symptoms through measurements of headache intensity, headache frequency, symptom characteristics associated with daily headache, muscle tenderness and subjective well-being.
There are four studies that underpin this thesis:
In study 2 and 4, the study cohort comprised 90 consecutive patients with CTTH. Study 1 is cross-sectional determining the symptom characteristics and the daytime headache frequency in 74 of the 90 patients with CTTH compared with controls. Measures in study 3 included 75 out of the 90 patients with CTTH. In studies 2, 3 and 4, patients with CTTH were randomly allocated to one of the three intervention groups.
The main findings were: The daytime headache intensity was lowest in the morning and worsening throughout the day. Headache-free periods were few but occurred most commonly in the morning and became less common as the day progressed. Neck mobility was lower in all movements (p<0.001), and tenderness was higher in all pericranial muscles (p<0.001) when compared to the control group. The pain location was most pronounced in the temporal region and the pain character was described mostly as ‘pressing’ or ‘tightening’. Stress, ergonomic factors and workload were cited as the most common triggering factors.
When determined the effect of acupuncture, physical training and relaxation training, all groups improved although the number of headache-free periods (p<0.03) and headache-free days (p<0.01) was higher in the relaxation group compared with the acupuncture group immediately after the last treatment.
Total Tenderness Score (TTS) decreased in all treatment groups after treatment with no group differences. Three months after treatment, TTS decreased in the physical training group and differed from the acupuncture group (p<0.001). Six months after treatment, TTS decreased in the physical training group (p<0.001) and the relaxation training group (p<0.008) compared to the acupuncture group.
Central nervous system (CNS)-related symptoms and Minor Symptom Evaluation Profile in total score and in the three dimensions were significantly lower in patients with CTTH compared with a reference group. At the three-month follow-up the total score was improved in the physical training group compared with the acupuncture group (p<0.036). At the six- month follow-up, the vitality and sleep dimension was significantly improved in the relaxation training group compared with the acupuncture group (p<0.04).
Conclusions: In patients with CTTH, headache symptoms increase during the day and stress, poor ergonomic factors and workload are the strongest triggering factors. All treatments reduced headache symptoms. Relaxation training and physical training are more effective treatments compared to acupuncture for patients with CTTH. A novelty of this study is that physical training has a good effect on CTTH.

▼ Os sistemas integrados de produção agropecuária (SIPAs), surgem como estratégia para aumentar a produtividade e renda para o produtor ao mesmo tempo que alcançam a sustentabilidade. No entanto, seus efeitos na qualidade da carcaça e carne dos animais nele produzidos carecem de elucidação. Assim, objetivou-se com este estudo avaliar o desempenho e as características da carcaça e carne de bovinos da raça Nelore terminados em SIPAs, sem disponibilidade de sombra (integração lavoura-pecuária: ILP) e com duas densidades de árvores (integração lavoura-pecuária-floresta: ILPF, com 196 árvores/ha e 448 árvores/ha). O delineamento experimental foi em blocos completos, com três tratamentos (ILP, ILPF-1L e ILPF-3L) e quatro repetições por tratamento, totalizando 12 parcelas experimentais. Foram utilizados 60 animais da raça Nelore castrados de aproximadamente 28±2,81 meses de idade e peso médio inicial de 385,71±27,17 kg para a avaliação do desempenho. Após o abate dos animais, foram coletadas 48 amostras do músculo longissimus thoracis para as análises de qualidade da carcaça e carne. Não foram encontradas diferenças (P>0,05) entre os tratamentos para o ganho médio diário e peso vivo final, contribuindo para ausência de diferença no peso e rendimento da carcaça quente, dianteiro, traseiro especial e ponta de agulha (P>0,05). Do mesmo modo, não foi encontrada diferença (P>0,05) entre os tratamentos para área de olho de lombo inicial e final, espessura de gordura subcutânea inicial e final, marmorização, pH e glicogênio ambos mensurados às 2 h e 24 h post mortem. A composição centesimal, colesterol, pH, perdas de peso por cocção, força de cisalhamento, colágeno, cor da carne e análise microbiológica não apresentaram diferenças (P>0,05) entre os tratamentos avaliados. No entanto, houve tendência de menor quantidade dos ácidos graxos poliinsaturados C17:1ω9 e C20:4ω6 (P=0,05 e P=0,06; respectivamente) e maior índice de trombogenecidade (P=0,08) na carne dos animais em sistema de ILPF-3L. Além de menor relação de AGM/AGP (P=0,03) nesse mesmo sistema. Conclui-se que a introdução das árvores na pastagem não interfere no desempenho, nas características de carcaça e na composição e qualidade física e microbiológica da carne dos bovinos Nelore. No entanto, o sistema com maior densidade de árvores produz carne com tendência a menor qualidade no aspecto nutricional dos ácidos graxos.

▼ The objective of this study was to analyze pH changes within five lamb muscles and correlate those to the physical and biochemical characteristics of the muscles, meanwhile, to understand what drives the changes and determine the strength of the correlation in pH changes with meat quality properties. Semimembranosus (SM), semitendinosus (ST), longissimus dorsi (LD), infraspinatus (IS), and supraspinatus (SS) from six animals were analyzed. Muscles from the left side of the carcasses were excised at 4 hours post-mortem to measure the fiber type by electrophoresis, while muscles from the right side of the carcasses were used to measure pH and temperature at 1.5, 6, 8, and 24 hours, and color was measured after the muscles were excised at 24 hours. After that, muscles from the right side were aged for 7 days and checked for cooking loss and tenderness. SM, ST, and LD muscles presented predominantly type-IIa and -IIx fibers, while SS was more abundant in type-Ifiber, and IS presented more type-Ifiber than SM, ST, and LD, but less than SS. Temperature of all muscles decreased and reached 3°C. All the muscles followed the normal trend of post-mortem pH decline, with the largest extent in LD and relatively higher ultimate pH in IS and SS. ST was the lightest (P < 0.05) muscle, while SS was the reddest (P < 0.05) muscle in this study. After aging and cooking, SM presented the highest (P < 0.05) loss of water and was the toughest (P < 0.05) muscle, while IS had the lowest (P < 0.05) cooking loss and was the most tender (P < 0.05) muscle. These data show that the different muscles varied in their on post-mortem biochemical and physical changes, and the gel results indicate that the methodology developed is suitable for observing fiber types in lamb muscles.

▼ Introduction: Patients undergoing orthodontic clear aligner therapy (CAT) may experience discomfort in their teeth and jaws, and often present with visible wear on their aligners. This multi-site prospective clinical study aimed to analyze tooth pain and masticatory muscle tenderness in patients subjected to CAT with Invisalign©.
Methods: Twenty-seven healthy adults undergoing treatment with Invisalign© were recruited from three university-based orthodontic clinics. Tooth pain and muscle tenderness were reported on visual analog scales in pain diaries prior to, and after starting CAT. Pressure pain thresholds (PPT) measured using pressure algometers were used to assess somatosensory changes in trigeminal and extra-trigeminal locations.
Results: The aligners resulted in tooth pain, which was greater with the initial passive aligner than the subsequent active aligners (all p0.05).
Conclusion: In the short-term, CAT results in mild tooth pain and jaw muscle tenderness of likely limited clinical significance, and does not result in significant somatosensory changes.
Subjects/Keywords: clear aligner therapy; aligners; removable appliances; Invisalign; orthodontic pain; tooth pain; muscle tenderness; masticatory muscles; clenching; temporomandibular disorder; trigeminal; Dental Materials; Orthodontics and Orthodontology

▼ Pericranial allodynia, hypothesized to reflect central
pain processing deficits, is the most reliable clinical finding in
very frequent or chronic tension-type headache. However, little is
known about the correlates of pericranial allodynia in healthy
young adults, including its association with affective distress,
headache disorders or persistent pain complaints, multimodal
measures of pain sensitivity, and other psychosocial correlates of
tension-type headache. The present study aimed to examine the
association between pericranial allodynia and affective distress on
formal diagnoses of headache and other persistent pain complaints,
multimodal cephalic and extra-cephalic pain sensitivity, and other
psychological correlates of tension-type headache in a population
of young adult females. Results indicated that pericranial
allodynia was not associated with either a formal headache
diagnosis or persistent pain complaints, but was associated with
decreased cephalic and extra-cephalic pressure pain thresholds,
increased widespread pressure pain sensitivity, and amplified
temporal summation. The generalized hyperalgesia and amplified
temporal summation likely reflects central abnormalities in pain
processing and/or modulation rather than either peripheral or local
sensitization at the level of the trigeminal nucleus. Pericranial
allodynia was also associated with a higher occurrence of mood
disorders and more pain catastrophizing. As allodynia was found to
be present without a headache diagnosis or persistent pain
complaint, it may be a risk factor for the development of chronic
tension-type headache. Further research is needed to clarify the
roles of pericranial allodynia and psychological variables on the
development and maintenance of chronic tension-type
headache.

▼ Beef flavor is very complex and the most important driver for consumer acceptance. Cooking method, Quality grade (marbling level), and cooked internal temperature may affect beef flavor. In this study, 54 treatments were utilized, including three beef cuts (outside skirt, inside skirt, and flaps), two Quality grades (USDA Choice and Select), three cooking methods (pan fry, pan grill, and outside grill), and three internal cook temperature endpoints (58°C, 70°C, and 80°C) to better understand trained descriptive beef flavor and texture attributes, volatile flavor aroma compounds, and Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF)
tenderness. Meat sources were purchased as subprimals in six reps for each cut and were fabricated into 10.16 cm wide steaks.
Generally across all three cuts, Quality grade significantly affected fat-like, cardboardy, juiciness,
muscle fiber
tenderness beef flavor and texture attributes (P < 0.05). Internal cook temperature endpoint significantly affected beef identity, brown, bloody/serumy, metallic, burnt, smokey charcoal, and juiciness (P < 0.05). Finally, the attributes generally affected by cooking method included beef identity, brown, metallic, smokey charcoal (P < 0.05).
Most flap treatments were clustered near butanoic acid, benzeneacetaldehyde, phenyl acetaldehyde, and 2,6-dimethyl-pyrazine – which are generally sweet, rancid, floral aromas. Generally, inside skirt treatments were related to acetic acid, sulfur dioxide, methyl-benzene, and 1-heptanol – which are sour, sulfur, and fruity aromas. Outside skirts are clustered around aromas such as dl-limonene, 2-acetyl-2-thiazoline, carbon disulfide, and undecanal – citrus, soapy, buttery aromas.
Treatments had a significant effect on flap
tenderness measured by WBSF – Choice steaks were more tender (P < 0.05) than Select flaps, those cooked to 80°C were less tender (P < 0.05) than other internal temperatures, and pan-grilled flaps were more tender (P < 0.05) than the other cooking methods. For inside skirts, there was no effect (P > 0.05) by Quality grade on
tenderness measured by Warner-Bratzler shear force. However, inside skirts cooked to 58°C were more tender than other internal temperature endpoints, and pan-grilled skirts were more tender than other cooking methods (P < 0.05). Lastly, for WBSF measurements, treatments had no impact (P > 0.05) on outside skirt steaks.

▼ Background: Plantar fasciitis (PF) is one of the most common soft tissue disorders that causes inferior heel and rear foot pain. Monophasic pulsed current (MPC) is a method of electrical stimulation (ES) clinically used to promote and accelerate wound healing processes. The aim of this prospective clinical trial was to investigate the effect of MPC and MPC coupled with plantar fascia specific stretching exercises (SE) in the treatment of PF. Methods: Forty four participants (twenty- two subjects were women; 22 were men with a mean age of 49 ± 10.6 years) diagnosed with PF were randomly allocated to receive MPC (n=22) or MPC coupled with plantar fascia specific SE (n=22). Prior to treatment, participants underwent a baseline evaluation. Heel pain was evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS), heel
tenderness threshold was quantified using a handheld pressure algometer (PA), the functional activities level was assessed using the Activities of Daily Living subscale of the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (ADL/FAAM), and the sagittal thickness (ST) of the proximal insertion of the plantar fascia was measured with musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSK US). Following treatment, post intervention evaluation was performed using the same outcome measures.

▼ An inherited
muscle hypertrophy in sheep is caused by the callipyge gene (CLPG) located on ovine chromosome 18. It has been suggested that this gene is a single autosomal dominant gene. Animals expressing the callipyge gene show increased muscling in the pelvic and torso regions of the body and, thus, have been given the phenotype- descriptive name callipyge (from Greek calli-beautiful; pyge-buttocks). In this study 21 wether lambs, the offspring of callipyge rams (genotype CLPG /clpg) and normal Rambouillet ewes (genotype clpg/clpg), were used to determine the difference s in
muscle fiber type percentages, composition, and
tenderness between normal and callipyge lambs . Eleven of these lambs showed
muscle hypertrophy typical of the callipyge phenotype; 10 were classified as normal . Several histochemical, biochemical , and physical measures were examined in order to study changes in the physiology and biochemistry of some economically important muscles.
When compared to normal lambs, the callipyge lambs have a larger (P < .05) average percentage of fast-twitch glycolytic (FG)
muscle fibers and smaller average percentages of fast-twitch oxidative and glycolytic (FOG) and slow-twitch oxidative (SO)
muscle fibers in both the longissimus and gluteus medius muscles. The diameter of the fast-twitch
muscle fibers was larger in the callipyge group, but slow-twitch fibers were smaller than those of normal lambs. No differences were observed in the supraspinatus
muscle of the normal and callipyge groups. Thus there is an indication of a differential effect of the callipyge gene among muscles of the callipyge lambs.
The semitendinosis muscles of both the callipyge and normal groups were dissected from the carcasses. This
muscle was larger (P < .01) and contained more protein in the callipyge lambs than in the normal lambs. However, the callipyge semitendinosis
muscle did not have a significantly higher content of DNA than the normal lamb semitendinosis, suggesting that the
muscle hypertrophy is not associated with an increase in
muscle nuclei. The protein-to-DNA ratio was larger (P < .05) in the semitendinosis
muscle of callipyge lambs than in the normal lambs. Protein-to-RNA and RNA-to-DNA ratios were similar; this suggests that the semitendinosis
muscle was enlarged without increased translational or transcriptional activity. Samples from the callipyge longissimus and gluteus medius muscles had RNA, DNA, and protein ratios similar to those of the semitendinosis
muscle, suggesting a similar mode of action for
muscle enlargement in other muscles affected by this gene.
Loin chops from the callipyge lambs had lower
tenderness scores (P < .01) as measured by the Wamer-Bratzler shear force and myofibril fragmentation index (MFI). However, aging increased MFI scores and decreased shear scores (P < .0 l) of the callipyge lamb chops . The normal lamb chops also had decreased shear and increased MFI scores following the aging period. The loin chops from the callipyge lambs also tended to be less red (P < .1)…

▼ Tension-Type Headache (TH) is highly prevalent and associated with significant personal and social cost. The causes of TH are unclear, precluding optimal treatment or prevention at present. Stress is a well-documented correlate and trigger of TH activity, however the causal significance has not been experimentally demonstrated to date. Similarly, the mechanisms by which stress contributes to TH, if in fact it does, are not clearly understood. Findings of increased pain sensitivity in TH sufferers suggests TH pathophysiology may involve dysfunction in peripheral and/or central nervous system processing of pain. Studies on animals and healthy humans demonstrate that stress can increase pain sensitivity by affecting peripheral and central pain mechanisms proposed as dysfunctional in TH. It has therefore been proposed that stress may contribute to TH through aggravating already increased pain sensitivity in TH sufferers. However, this hypothesis has not been adequately examined in TH sufferers to date. Addressing the above issues, the present project conducted seven studies examining relationships between stress, pain sensitivity, and headache activity in TH sufferers. The aim was to test the hypothesis that stress contributes to TH by aggravating already increased pain sensitivity in TH sufferers. Studies 1 and 2 demonstrated increased general arousal and complex temporal relationships between general arousal and headache activity in the natural environment in Episodic TH (ETH) sufferers. In Study 3, experimentally induced stress of brief duration increased pressure pain sensitivity at the head in Chronic TH (CTH) sufferers more than in healthy controls. Study 4 found CTH sufferers to have increased levels of daily stress, increased pericranial muscle tenderness, and reduced pain thresholds, which were inter-related. Both daily stress and pain sensitivity were predictive of prospective daily headache activity. In Study 5, an experimental model demonstrated that stress-induced headache was associated with stress-induced increase in pericranial muscle tenderness and reduction in pressure pain thresholds at head and hand. Additionally, induced stress reduced pain tolerance and increased pain intensity ratings to cold pressor more in TH sufferers than in healthy controls (Study 7). Finally, TH sufferers were found to have abnormal temporal summation of pressure pain and impaired noxious inhibition of temporal summation compared to healthy controls, however neither temporal summation nor noxious inhibition of temporal summation were affected by induced stress (Study 6). Together, the results support the hypotheses: 1) Stress contributes to both ETH and CTH, and 2) Stress contributes to CTH through aggravating already increased pain sensitivity in CTH sufferers. Impaired pain inhibition and increased wind-up may be underlying abnormalities contributing to increased pain sensitivity in CTH sufferers.
