The invention is directed to a modified polysaccharide hydrogel, comprising a low molecular weight alginate with a specific M/G ratio. The modified polysaccharide is modified with a specific peptide, preferably comprising a cell-adhesion peptide. The modified polysaccharide hydrogel may be used as a hydrogel for the growth of cultured meat preferably as a sacrificial biopolymer.

[Problem] To provide a method for producing an artificial three-dimensional muscle tissue, said method enabling stable, efficient and easy production of a muscle tissue, and an artificial three-dimensional muscle tissue produced by this method. [Solution] A method for producing an artificial three-dimensional muscle tissue, said method comprising steps of (i) forming a three-dimensional muscle tissue precursor, which is configured from a first muscle tissue support, a second muscle tissue support and muscle cells, by linearly arranging the muscle cells on the first muscle tissue support in such a manner that the muscle cells are located close to the first muscle tissue support at one end of the line and close to the second muscle tissue support at the other end of the line, and (ii) culturing the three-dimensional muscle tissue precursor to give an artificial three-dimensional muscle tissue, and an artificial three-dimensional muscle tissue obtained by this method.

Provided are a scaffold including a plant protein and in-vitro meat produced by using the scaffold. Considering that the scaffold consists of a plant protein, cultured muscles or adipose tissues may be ingested together with the scaffold without being separated therefrom. By adjusting a ratio of a muscle cell and an adipocyte, in-vitro meat having desirable texture may be produced, and since various types of cells may adhere, proliferate, and differentiate on the scaffold, such a scaffold may be effectively utilized for mass production of in-vitro meat.

Compositions and methods are provided for induction and maintenance of quiescence of stem cells.

The present disclosure discloses a preparation method and use of a crosslinked hydrogel for muscle stem cell culture, and belongs to the technical field of biological food materials. Chitosan, alginate, dextran and Ca.sup.2+ are crosslinked through physical crosslinking to form a double-network hydrogel with a high mechanical strength, the hydrogel is coated with heparin and collagen through dip coating, such that the hydrogel can immobilize growth factors and adhere to cells. Meanwhile, extracted primary muscle stem cells are inoculated onto the hydrogel and cultured in a growth medium (79% of DMEM, 10% of FBS and 1% of double antibodies) for 24 h. The cells are cultured in an incubator with a differential medium (97% of DMEM, 2% of horse serum and 1% of double antibodies) for 7 d. The hydrogel can enhance the absorption to nutrient substances by the muscle stem cells and facilitate growth of the muscle stem cells. The double-network hydrogel has the potential to be a scaffold for growth of muscle stem cells for cultured meat from stem cells.

Described is a crosslinked hydrogel for muscle stem cell culture and a preparation method and use thereof. The preparation method includes: dissolving collagen to prepare a solution and adding alginate and heparan sulfate proteoglycan and uniformly mixing with the collagen solution; adding ε-PL and TGase into the solution, uniformly stirring, and putting a slurry into a mold for crosslinking to obtain the hydrogel. The hydrogel is prepared by linking the collagen, the polylysine, and the heparan sulfate proteoglycan using the TGase to form covalent crosslinking, and forming a compact three-dimensional “egg box” network structure through a physical electrostatic interaction between the polylysine and the alginate.
