Steers were fed 70∶30 forage∶concentrate diets for 205 days, with either grass hay (GH) or red clover silage (RC), and either sunflower-seed (SS) or flaxseed (FS), providing 5.4% oil in the diets. Compared to diets containing SS, FS diets had elevated (P<0.05) subcutaneous trans (t)-18:1 isomers, conjugated linoleic acids and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). Forage and oilseed type influenced total n-3 PUFA, especially α-linolenic acid (ALA) and total non-conjugated diene biohydrogenation (BH) in subcutaneous fat with proportions being greater (P<0.05) for FS or GH as compared to SS or RC. Of the 25 bacterial genera impacted by diet, 19 correlated with fatty acids (FA) profile. Clostridium were most abundant when levels of conjugated linolenic acids, and n-3 PUFA''s were found to be the lowest in subcutaneous fat, suggestive of their role in BH. Anerophaga, Fibrobacter, Guggenheimella, Paludibacter and Pseudozobellia were more abundant in the rumen when the levels of VA in subcutaneous fat were low. This study clearly shows the impact of oilseeds and forage source on the deposition of subcutaneous FA in beef cattle. Significant correlations between rumen bacterial genera and the levels of specific FA in subcutaneous fat maybe indicative of their role in determining the FA profile of adipose tissue. However, despite numerous correlations, the dynamics of rumen bacteria in the BH of unsaturated fatty acid and synthesis of PUFA and FA tissue profiles require further experimentation to determine if these correlations are consistent over a range of diets of differing composition. Present results demonstrate that in order to achieve targeted FA profiles in beef, a multifactorial approach will be required that takes into consideration not only the PUFA profile of the diet, but also the non-oil fraction of the diet, type and level of feed processing, and the role of rumen microbes in the BH of unsaturated fatty acid. 相似文献

This study investigated the effect of administration of
α-lipoic acid (LA) on lipid metabolism in high fructose–fed insulin-resistant rats. High-fructose feeding (60 g/100 g
diet) to normal rats resulted in a significant increase in
the concentrations of cholesterol, triglycerides (TGs), free
fatty acids (FFAs), and phospholipids in plasma, liver, kidney,
and skeletal muscle. Reduced activities of lipoprotein
lipase (LPL) and lecithin cholesterol acyl transferase
(LCAT) and increased activity of the lipogenic enzyme
hydroxymethylglutaryl–coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase
were observed in plasma and liver. High-density
lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was significantly lowered
and very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C) and
low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were significantly
elevated. Treatment with LA (35 mg/kg body weight
intraperitoneal) reduced the effects of fructose. The rats
showed near-normal levels of lipid components on plasma
and tissues. Activities of key enzymes of lipid metabolism
were also restored to normal values. Cholesterol distribution
in the plasma lipoproteins was normalized, resulting in
a favorable lipid profile. This study demonstrates that LA
can alter lipid metabolism in fructose-fed insulin-resistant
rats and may have implications in the treatment of insulin
resistance. 相似文献

The fatty acid profiles and contents of protozoa from the rumen fluid of cattle varied according to the type of diet consumed by their host. Changing from a high-quality hay diet to a low-quality hay diet (DA) decreased the proportions of saturated acids and increased the proportions of the unsaturated acids 18:1 cis-9, 18:2 and 18:3 in neutral lipids (NL) and phospholipids (PL). Adding sucrose, urea and sulphur (SUS) to DA increased the proportions of branched chain acids in PL while addition of safflower oil increased polyunsaturated acids in PL and 18:1 trans-11 in NL. Diet did not alter the PL fatty acid content of protozoa but oil supplement of DA resulted in a 10-fold increase in the content of free fatty acids. The defaunating effect of oil supplement was partly reversed by SUS suggesting that factors other than the fatty acid content of cells are important in determining the toxicity of oil to rumen protozoa. The results indicate that the amounts of individual long-chain fatty acids taken up by rumen ciliates are largely determined by their concentrations in rumen digesta. 相似文献

Livers of growing rats fed a 5 or 20 protein calories percent (PC %) diet containing purified whole egg protein for three weeks were perfused in situ and the release of triglycerides (TG) and the oxidation of fatty acid by the liver alone were estimated by infusing palmitic acid-l-14C to the perfusion medium.The release of TG from the liver of the 5 PC% group was significantly lower in both unfractionated perfusate plasma and perfusate plasma very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) than that of the 20 PC% group, whereas the content of liver TG of the 5 PC% group was higher than that of the 20 PC% group. Significantly lower radioactivity appeared in TG of both unfractionated perfusate plasma and perfusate plasma VLDL of the 5 PC% group than that of the 20 PC% group, while total radioactivity of liver TG was higher in the 5 PC% group than in the 20 PC% group. The 14CO2 production in the perfused liver of the 5 PC% group increased gradually with time rather than decreased in comparison with that of the 20 PC% group.These findings suggest that a major factor responsible for the liver lipid accumulation in rats fed the low protein diet is not an impaired fatty acid oxidation in the liver but an impaired secretion of TG from the liver. 相似文献

Feeding of a threonine-deficient diet to rats weighing approximately 53 g or 99 g caused a significant rise in liver lipids compared to the control diet containing 7% amino acid mixture. Whereas, when rats weighing approximately 155 g were fed either the control diet or the threonine-deficient diet, liver lipid content was essentially the same for both groups. Therefore, in the present paper, young rats were used to clarify the mechanism of liver lipid accumulation in threonine-deficiency. The increase in dietary fat content of the threonine-deficient diet did not prevent the lipid accumulation in rat liver. The rates of in vivo incorporation from radioactive acetate into liver lipids, body lipids and respiratory CO2 of rats fed either the control diet or the threonine-deficient diet were measured. The threonine-deficient group tended to be lower in total activity of both the liver lipids and body lipids than those of the control group. Thus, these results suggest that the development of this type of fatty liver might not be due to the stimulation of lipid synthesis in the liver. In the serum of rats fed the threonine-deficient diet, the protein content of β-lipoproteins was significantly lower and free fatty acid level tended to be lower than the values of the control animals, respectively. From these results, decreased trasport of lipids from the liver may thus be considered a potential major factor responsible for the excessive lipid accumulation in the liver of rats fed the threonine-deficient diet. 相似文献

Cheviot wethers were defaunated by using dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate and were constantly infused with urea to provide 2.87% of the daily N intake. Defaunation resulted in higher rumen dry matter and lower rumen pH. The molar per cent propionate was higher in defaunated sheep, whereas the molar per cent butyrate and acetate was lower. Apparent nitrogen digestibility, nitrogen utilization, and nitrogen balance were higher in defaunated sheep when compared with faunated animals. Urea infusion resulted in lower apparent nitrogen digestibility, nitrogen utilization, and nitrogen balance in faunated sheep, but did not affect nitrogen metabolism in defaunated sheep. Rumen ammonia-N levels in defaunated sheep were lower than those observed for faunated animals, and urea infusion into faunated sheep increased rumen ammonia-N levels to a greater extent than did the urea infusion into defaunated animals. Significant correlations were demonstrated between rumen ammonia-N levels and C(2)/C(3), C(3)/C(4) and C(2)/C(4) volatile acid ratios. From this it was concluded that, as rumen ammonia-N levels increased, there was a shift from propionate to higher proportions of butyrate and acetate. 相似文献

The feed and feces of a continuously fed sheep were analyzed for carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen, with oxygen as the remainder. The daily feed-feces weight difference was used as the reactant in an equation representing the rumen fermentation. The measured products were the daily production of volatile fatty acids (VFA), CH(4), CO(2), and ammonia. The carbon unaccounted for was assumed to be in the microbial cell material produced in the rumen and absorbed before reaching the feces. The ratio of C to H, O, and N in bacteria was used to represent the elemental composition of the microbes formed in the rumen fermentation, completing the following equation:C(20.03)H(36.99)O(17.406)N(1.345) + 5.65 H(2)O --> C(12)H(24)O(10.1) + 0.83 CH(4) VFA + 2.76 CO(2) + 0.50 NH(3) + C(4.44)H(8.88)O(2.35)N(0.785) microbial cells absorbed With C arbitrarily balanced and O balanced by appropriate addition of water, any error is reflected in the H. The H recovery was 98.5%. The turnover rate constant for rumen liquid equilibrating with polyethylene glycol (PEG) was 2.27 per day. Direct counts and volume measurements of the individual types of bacteria and protozoa in the rumen were used to calculate the total microbial cell volume in the rumen, not equilibrating with it. The dry matter in the rumen (582 g) and the nitrogen content (12.05) of the microbes in the rumen were estimated, the latter constituting 85% of the measured N in the rumen. Calculations for rumen dry matter and nitrogen turning over at the PEG rate introduce big discrepancies with other parameters; a rumination pool must be postulated. Its size and composition are estimated. Arguments are presented to support the view that dry matter and some of the microbes, chiefly the protozoa, do not leave the rumen at the PEG rate. One experiment with the same sheep fed twice daily showed significantly less production of microbial cells than did the continuous (each 2 hr) feeding. Analysis of the microbial cell yield suggests that, on the basis of 11 mg of cells per adenosine triphosphate molecule, a maximum of six adenosine triphosphate molecules could have been formed from each molecule of hexose fermented. 相似文献

Lipid metabolism in the rumen is responsible for the complex fatty acid profile of rumen outflow compared with the dietary fatty acid composition, contributing to the lipid profile of ruminant products. A method for the detailed dimethylacetal and fatty acid analysis of rumen contents was developed and applied to rumen content collected from lambs fed lucerne or concentrate based diets supplemented with soybean oil. The methodological approach developed consisted on a basic/acid direct transesterification followed by thin-layer chromatography to isolate fatty acid methyl esters from dimethylacetal, oxo- fatty acid and fatty acid dimethylesters. The dimethylacetal composition was quite similar to the fatty acid composition, presenting even-, odd- and branched-chain structures. Total and individual odd- and branched-chain dimethylacetals were mostly affected by basal diet. The presence of 18∶1 dimethylacetals indicates that biohydrogenation intermediates might be incorporated in structural microbial lipids. Moreover, medium-chain fatty acid dimethylesters were identified for the first time in the rumen content despite their concentration being relatively low. The fatty acids containing 18 carbon-chain lengths comprise the majority of the fatty acids present in the rumen content, most of them being biohydrogenation intermediates of 18∶2n−6 and 18∶3n−3. Additionally, three oxo- fatty acids were identified in rumen samples, and 16-O-18∶0 might be produced during biohydrogenation of the 18∶3n−3. 相似文献

The fatty acid compositions of 21 pure cultures of rumen bacteria, representing 12 genera and 14 species, were compared as methyl esters. Each organism possessed a consistent and reproducible fatty acid profile. Overlapping similarities and differences in composition did not allow differentiation between families or genera. Although species differentiation was possible, fatty acid composition appeared to be only an aid in the identification of bacteria. 相似文献

To estimate the contribution of uncultured bacterial groups to fiber degradation, we attempted to retrieve both ecological and functional information on uncultured groups in the rumen. Among previously reported uncultured bacteria, fiber-associated groups U2 and U3, belonging to the low-GC Gram-positive bacterial group, were targeted. PCR primers and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probe targeting 16S rRNA genes or rRNA were designed and used to monitor the distribution of targets. The population size of group U2 in the rumen was as high as 1.87%, while that of group U3 was only 0.03%. Strong fluorescence signals were observed from group U2 cells attached to plant fibers in the rumen. These findings indicate the ecological significance of group U2 in the rumen. We succeeded in enriching group U2 using rumen-incubated rice straw as the inoculum followed by incubation in an appropriate medium with an agent inhibitory for Gram-negative bacteria. Consequently, we successfully isolated two strains, designated B76 and R-25, belonging to group U2. Both strains were Gram-positive short rods or cocci that were 0.5 to 0.8 μm in size. Strain B76 possessed xylanase and α-l-arabinofuranosidase activity. In particular, the xylanase activity of strain B76 was higher than that of xylanolytic Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens H17c grown on cellobiose. Strain R-25 showed an α-l-arabinofuranosidase activity higher than that of strain B76. These results suggest that strains B76 and R-25 contribute to hemicellulose degradation in the rumen.Ruminants can utilize plant fiber as an energy source with the aid of a symbiotic relationship with microbes in the rumen. The rumen is a complex microbial ecosystem comprised of bacteria (1010 to 1011 per ml), protozoa (104 to 106 per ml), and fungi (103 to 106 per ml) (8, 23, 39). Of the rumen microbes, bacteria are considered to be primarily responsible for the biological degradation of plant fiber, due to their high fibrolytic activity and large biomass in the rumen. In order to determine the mechanism of plant fiber degradation in the rumen, numerous studies have been performed on both the physiological and ecological characteristics of rumen bacteria (16, 27, 36). In particular, various aspects of bacterial attachment to feed particles have been investigated (19, 21, 25), because attachment to plant fiber is a critical step in initiating fiber degradation (20).Recent advances in molecular techniques have allowed recognition of a predominance of uncultured bacteria in the rumen (6, 24, 33). The majority (77%) of fiber-associated community members are uncultured bacteria, although 17% of cloned bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences were classified as known fibrolytic species, such as Fibrobacter succinogenes and Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens (12). These findings clearly indicate the possibility for involvement of uncultured bacteria in ruminal fiber degradation. Through the phylogenetic analysis of fiber-associated community members, the unidentified bacterial groups were detected and designated uncultured group 2 (U2) and uncultured group 3 (U3). However, their roles in plant fiber digestion have yet to be determined.The predominance of uncultured bacteria has also been pointed out in other environments (26). Recently, new strategies for cultivation have been introduced to resolve the problem of the bacteria being unculturable. Sait et al. (28) reported that culturing with a polymeric growth substrate and longer incubation time was effective for the isolation of previously uncultured bacteria from soil. Cultivation on low-nutrient medium, using increased incubation times, with simulated natural environments or using a membrane as a solid support for growth has apparently led to improvements in bacterial cultivation (7, 31). On the other hand, the majority of rumen bacteria have yet to be isolated (10) despite great efforts toward the isolation of rumen bacterial strains over the past 50 years. Considering the ecological significance of uncultured rumen bacteria, it is important to cultivate and characterize these bacteria to fully understand the ecology of fiber digestion.In the present study, molecular monitoring tools were developed to obtain ecological information on target uncultured bacterial groups in the rumen. Previously uncultured rumen bacteria were then isolated and characterized to retrieve functional information. 相似文献

Direct gas chromatographic determination of tobacco smoke was developed. Tobacco smoke condensate was collected on a glass fiber filter and the components were converted into their trimethylsilyl derivatives and then subjected to glass capillary column gas chromatography. By this method, all tobacco smoke components, including unstable phenolic substances and water-soluble polyhydroxy compounds, were simultaneously determined. Compositional differences between lamina and midrib smoke of flue-cured tobacco leaves were also clarified by the method. The results indicate that there are quantitative differences in nicotine, phenols, levoglucosan, quinic acid γ-lactone and the other major components between lamina and midrib smoke. 相似文献

Energy-rich diets can challenge metabolic and protective functions of the rumen epithelial cells, but the underlying factors are unclear. This study sought to evaluate proteomic changes of the rumen epithelium in goats fed a low, medium, or high energy diet. Expression of protein changes were compared by two-dimensional differential gel electrophoresis followed by protein identification with matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Of about 2,000 spots commonly detected in all gels, 64 spots were significantly regulated, which were traced back to 24 unique proteins. Interestingly, the expression profiles of several chaperone proteins with important cellular protective functions such as heat shock cognate 71 kDa protein, peroxiredoxin-6, serpin H1, protein disulfide-isomerase, and selenium-binding protein were collectively downregulated in response to high dietary energy supply. Similar regulation patterns were obtained for some other proteins involved in transport or metabolic functions. In contrast, metabolic enzymes like retinal dehydrogenase 1 and ATP synthase subunit beta, mitochondrial precursor were upregulated in response to high energy diet. Lower expressions of chaperone proteins in the rumen epithelial cells in response to high energy supply may suggest that these cells were less protected against the potentially harmful rumen toxic compounds, which might have consequences for rumen and systemic health. Our findings also suggest that energy-rich diets and the resulting acidotic insult may render rumen epithelial cells more vulnerable to cellular damage by attenuating their cell defense system, hence facilitating the impairment of rumen barrier function, typically observed in energy-rich fed ruminants. 相似文献

We determined the accuracy and reproducibility of whole-community fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) analysis with two model bacterial communities differing in composition by using the Microbial ID, Inc. (MIDI), system. The biomass, taxonomic structure, and expected MIDI-FAME profiles under a variety of environmental conditions were known for these model communities a priori. Not all members of each community could be detected in the composite profile because of lack of fatty acid “signatures” in some isolates or because of variations (approximately fivefold) in fatty acid yield across taxa. MIDI-FAME profiles of replicate subsamples of a given community were similar in terms of fatty acid yield per unit of community dry weight and relative proportions of specific fatty acids. Principal-components analysis (PCA) of MIDI-FAME profiles resulted in a clear separation of the two different communities and a clustering of replicates of each community from two separate experiments on the first PCA axis. The first PCA axis accounted for 57.1% of the variance in the data and was correlated with fatty acids that varied significantly between communities and reflected the underlying community taxonomic structure. On the basis of our data, community fatty acid profiles can be used to assess the relative similarities and differences of microbial communities that differ in taxonomic composition. However, detailed interpretation of community fatty acid profiles in terms of biomass or community taxonomic composition must be viewed with caution until our knowledge of the quantitative and qualitative distribution of fatty acids over a wide variety of taxa and the effects of growth conditions on fatty acid profiles is more extensive. 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to investigate the cholesterol-reducing effect of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) completed by elevated excretion of fecal neutral steroids and/or bile acids. Blood and liver lipid profiles, fecal neutral steroids, bile acids, and mRNA and protein expression of the genes relevant to cholesterol homeostasis were measured and analyzed in C57BL/6J mice fed a cholesterol-rich diet with 2% caprylic acid or capric acid for 12 weeks. Blood total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) levels were reduced significantly as compared to diet with palmitic acid or stearic acid. Caprylic acid promoted the excretion of fecal neutral steroids, especially cholesterol. The excretion of fecal bile acids, mainly in the form of cholic acid was enhanced and accompanied by elevated expression of mRNA and the protein of hepatic cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1). These results indicate that MCFAs can reduce blood cholesterol by promoting the excretion of fecal cholesterol and cholic acid. 相似文献

The whole-cell lipid extraction to profile microbial communities on soils using fatty acid (FA) biomarkers is commonly done with the two extractants associated with the phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) or Microbial IDentification Inc. (MIDI) methods. These extractants have very different chemistry and lipid separation procedures, but often shown a similar ability to discriminate soils from various management and vegetation systems. However, the mechanism and the chemistry of the exact suite of FAs extracted by these two methods are poorly understood. Therefore, the objective was to qualitatively and quantitatively compare the MIDI and PLFA microbial profiling methods for detecting microbial community shifts due to soil type or management. Twenty-nine soil samples were collected from a wide range of soil types across Oregon and extracted FAs by each method were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and GC-mass spectrometry. Unlike PLFA profiles, which were highly related to microbial FAs, the overall MIDI-FA profiles were highly related to the plant-derived FAs. Plant-associated compounds were quantitatively related to particulate organic matter (POM) and qualitatively related to the standing vegetation at sampling. These FAs were negatively correlated to respiration rate normalized to POM (RespPOM), which increased in systems under more intensive management. A strong negative correlation was found between MIDI-FA to PLFA ratios and total organic carbon (TOC). When the reagents used in MIDI procedure were tested for the limited recovery of MIDI-FAs from soil with high organic matter, the recovery of MIDI-FA microbial signatures sharply decreased with increasing ratios of soil to extractant. Hence, the MIDI method should be used with great caution for interpreting changes in FA profiles due to shifts in microbial communities. 相似文献

By anaerobic procedures, the total number of adherent bacteria was determined on tissue samples obtained from the roof of the dorsal rumen of three sheep. After four washings, 1.91 × 107, 0.34 × 107, and 1.23 × 107 bacteria per cm2 were still attached to the rumen epithelium in sheep 1, 2, and 3, respectively. A total of 95 strains of bacteria were isolated from these three samples. Based on morphology, Gram stain, anaerobiosis, motility, and fermentation end products, they were presumptively identified as follows: Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens, 30 strains; atypical Butyrivibrio, 5 strains; Bacteroides ruminicola, 22 strains; Lactobacillus, 1 strain; and unknown Bacteroides species, 37 strains. For sheep 3, washing the rumen epithelium a total of 10 times reduced the adherent bacterial population by 93% (8.4 × 105 bacteria per cm2). Of 30 strains isolated from this sample, 22 were presumptively identified as Butyrivibrio and Bacteroides types. These results suggest that the epithelium on the roof of the dorsal rumen is primarily colonized by two genera of bacteria, Butyrivibrio and Bacteroides. Most Butyrivibrio and Bacteroides ruminicola strains appeared to be similar to previously isolated rumen strains. However, the unknown Bacteroides species differed considerably from the three species of this genus which are commonly isolated from rumen contents. 相似文献
