The present study was conducted to quantify MHCs in porcine longissimus thoracis (LT), psoas major (PM) and semimembranosus (SM) muscles through the label-free quantification (LFQ). To estimate the accuracy of LFQ, quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and Western-blotting (WB) were performed. MHCs 2x, 2a, 2b and slow were identified by LC-MS/MS analysis and 279 ion spectra were selected for LFQ analysis. The content of MHC 2b was higher in LT and in SM than in PM (p<0.05), while the content of MHC slow was highest in PM among the muscles (p<0.01) regardless of LFQ types. Positive correlation coefficients of MHC 2b and MHC slow between LFQ and IHC (relative area composition) and qRT-PCR results partially supported the LFQ results. Though low-abundant peptides should be considered to estimate MHC contents via the spectral count method, LFQ enables the determination of MHC contents at protein level regardless of LFQ types.
