Zinc has been implicated in the regulation of prostaglandins and other arachidonic acid derivatives. Studies of zinc-deficient animals, however, are compromised by concomitant reduction in food intake that may also alter eicosanoid levels in body tissues and fluids. In this study, three groups of rats, designated as zinc-deficient, pair-fed and control, were fed diets containing 1 ppm, 15 ppm (in amounts paired to deficient rats) and 15 ppm Zn ad libitum, respectively, for 6 weeks. Saliva and blood were analyzed for PGE2 and TXB2 by radioimmunoassay. Saliva concentrations of both eicosanoids were lower (p less than 0.05) in the pair-fed animals, but not significantly altered by zinc deficiency. Plasma levels of PGE2 and TXB2 were unchanged by either zinc deficiency or food restriction. The results of this study support the contention that the effect of zinc on these prostaglandins is not mediated by altered rates of synthesis or degradation but rather by effects on eicosanoid function. 相似文献

The present report demonstrates, for the first time, that feeding rats 50 ppm cadmium for just 7 wk results in detectable
levels of cadmium in the eye of rats. Furthermore, these ocular cadmium concentrations affect significant alterations in the
levels of the essential trace elements selenium, calcium iron, and copper in the eye. Rats were fed a low-selenium (<0.02
ppm selenium), high-copper basal diet (50 ppm copper) supplemented with 0, 0.1, and 0.5 ppm selenium. The animals were either
untreated or treated with 50 ppm cadmium admixed with their feed. Cadmium treatment resulted in significant reductions (up
to 50%) in ocular selenium. Furthermore, rats fed the basal diet and given 100 ppm cadmium via their feed for 6 wk exhibited
a 69% reduction in the activity of the selenoenzyme, glutathione peroxidase, in the eye. Cadmium treatment also resulted in
reductions of up to 50% in ocular calcium, irrespective of dietary selenium supplementation. Iron levels were increased by
30% in rats fed the low-selenium diet and decreased by as much as 40% in rats fed the selenium-supplemented diets, compared
to animals fed identical levels of selenium without cadmium. Ocular copper levels were significantly increased only in rats
fed the low-selenium diet and treated with cadmium. Ocular zinc levels were not significantly affected by dietary cadmium
or selenium. 相似文献

Rats were fed 47 (deficient) and 606 ppm (adequate) magnesium with either 2,100 or 14,000 ppm sodium. Serum corticosterone and aldosterone levels were determined by randoimmunoassay in six rats from each treatment group killed on days 7, 14, and 28 of consumption of the experimental diets. Serum corticosterone levels were moderately, but not significantly, decreased in magnesium deficient animals. Serum aldosterone levels increased over time in the rats fed the lower sodium diet with adequate magnesium and were further elevated in magnesium deficient animals. In sodium loaded rats the increase in aldosterone levels in magnesium deficiency was less and occurred later. Retention and urinary excretion of sodium and potassium did not appear to be affected by magnesium status or the serum concentration of aldosterone. Possible mechanisms underlying the changes in aldosterone levels of magnesium depleted animals are discussed with reference to the known effects of magnesium deficiency on physiological functions. 相似文献

Chicks (Gallus domesticus) were fed diets containing 0 or 2000 ppm lead (Pb) and adequate, marginal or deficient levels of riboflavin. In comparison to adequate, marginal riboflavin depressed growth at 2000 ppm Pb but not at 0 ppm Pb. Deficient riboflavin depressed growth at both Pb levels, and Pb depressed growth at all riboflavin levels. Hepatic glutathione reductase activity was reduced by riboflavin deficiency, but Pb was without effect. Hepatic non-protein sulfhydryl concentrations were increased by Pb, and the increases were greater at the lower riboflavin levels. Dietary Pb appears to increase the level of riboflavin required in chick diets. 相似文献

The influence of dietary protein, methionine, and lysine on leather quality in blue fox pelts was studied. The pelt material originated from animals in two consecutive feeding trials (Exp. 1 and Exp. 2) with three protein levels: conventional, slightly lowered, and very low. The two lowest protein diets were fed as such or as supplemented with methionine or with lysine (lysine only in Exp. 2). The following physical leather properties were measured: breaking load (BRL), tensile strength (TEN), relative elongation at break (PEB), straining of skins at pelting, and shrinkage at dressing. A decline in the dietary protein content reduced BRL and, hence, leather firmness, and increased straining and the corresponding shrinking in Exp. 1. The supplemented methionine tended to improve leather strength and elasticity by increasing TEN and PEB in Exp. 1, whereas lysine elicited no response. Methionine supplementation at the slightly lowered protein level increased BRL in both experiments by almost 10% as compared with the respective non-supplemented diet. We conclude that with high protein quality diets, a level of 200g/kg DM (as digestible protein) appears to be adequate for producing pelts with firm, elastic leather, provided that an adequate amount of methionine is included in the diet. 相似文献

To examine the effects of diabetes on the alteration of R3230AC mammary tumor growth by dietary lipids, streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were fed diets containing either 20% corn oil (HF), 20% hydrogenated cottonseed oil (HCTO), or 0% fat (FF). Diabetes resulted in lower tumor weights and body weights compared to those of intact animals. Unlike intact animals, relative tumor weight (g tumor/100 g body wt) of diabetic animals fed HF diets were not greater than those from animals fed FF diets. However, in these diabetic animals, growth of tumors in HF-fed rats was faster than in HCTO-fed rats, a relationship similar to that seen in intact rats. A surprising result was the almost twofold greater tumor weight/100 g body wt observed in diabetic FF-fed rats compared to those fed HCTO diets. Insulin binding to tumor plasma membranes from diabetic animals was higher in rats fed HF diets than in rats fed FF or HCTO diets. The tumor plasma membrane fatty acid composition of diabetic rats fed FF and HCTO diets displayed higher proportions of the monounsaturates (C18:1 and C21:1) and decreased amounts of the polyunsaturates (C18:2 and C20:4) compared to the levels observed in membranes from HF-fed rats. These results, as well as the insulin binding data, were similar to those obtained using intact animals. The data presented here indicate that the more rapid growth of the R3230AC mammary tumor seen in intact animals fed high polyunsaturated fat vs fat-free diets did not occur in diabetic animals. 相似文献

Effect of Chlordecone (Cd) and malnutrition on total body and spleen weights, and plaque forming cells (PFC) were studied. Rats were fed on normal, calcium (CaD), protein (PD) or Ca+P-deficient diets containing 0, 10 or 100 ppm of Cd for 2 or 4 weeks. High (95−100%) mortality was observed in malnourished rats treated with 100 ppm of Cd for 4 weeks. A slight decrease in body weight and an increase in spleen weight was observed in normal but not malnourished rats treated with 10 ppm of Cd for 4 weeks. PFC were significantly increased in both malnourished and Cd-treated rats. Similar increase in PFC was observed in rats fed on CaD but not PD diet containing 10 or 100 ppm of Cd. Whereas, rats fed on Ca+P-D diet containing 100 ppm of Cd exhibited a significant decrease in PFC. 相似文献

Carbohydrates (CHO) such as fructose (FR) or sucrose, but not starch (ST), aggravate the consequences of dietary copper (Cu) deficiency in rats. To evaluate whether this Cu X CHO interaction is pertinent to human health, the pig was used as an animal model. In two studies, 66 weanling pigs were fed dried skim milk (DSM)-based diets for 10 wk with 20% of the total calories provided as either FR, glucose, or ST and containing either deficient (1.0-1.3 micrograms/g diet) or adequate (7.1 micrograms/g) levels of Cu. Plasma and tissue levels of Cu, the activities of plasma ceruloplasmin ferroxidase and erythrocyte Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase, and hematocrits were lower (p less than 0.05) in animals fed Cu-deficient diets. The relative cardiac mass of all Cu-deficient groups was greater (p less than 0.05) than that of animals fed Cu-adequate diets. These effects were in general unaffected by type of CHO. For comparison, weaned male rats were also fed DSM-based containing diets ST or FR with adequate or deficient Cu for as long as 10 wk. Rats consuming the Cu-deficient diets were characterized by significantly lower hematocrits, decreased tissue Cu levels, and enlarged hearts, regardless of the CHO source. Together, these data demonstrate that DSM-based diets are not suitable for delineation of potential Cu X CHO interactions, and one or more components of DSM may exacerbate the consequences of dietary Cu deficiency. 相似文献

Rats were fed diets containing a high level of saturated fatty acids (hydrogenated beef tallow) versus a high level of linoleic acid (safflower oil) at both low and high levels of fish oil containing 7.5% (w/w) eicosapentaenoic and 2.5% (w/w) docosahexaenoic acids for a period of 28 days. The effect of feeding these diets on the cholesterol content and fatty acid composition of serum and liver lipids was examined. Feeding diets high in fish oil with safflower oil decreased the cholesterol content of rat serum, whereas feeding fish oil had no significant effect on the cholesterol content of serum when fed in combination with saturated fatty acids. The serum cholesterol level was higher in animals fed safflower oil compared to animals fed saturated fat without fish oil. Consumption of fish oil lowered the cholesterol content of liver tissue regardless of the dietary fat fed. Feeding diets containing fish oil reduced the arachidonic acid content of rat serum and liver lipid fractions, the decrease being more pronounced when fish oil was fed in combination with hydrogenated beef tallow than with safflower oil. These results suggest that dietary n-3 fatty acids of fish oil interact with dietary linoleic acid and saturated fatty acids differently to modulate enzymes of cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. 相似文献

Vitamins play an essential role in broiler nutrition. They are fundamental for normal metabolic and physiological process, and their requirements for poultry are not fixed and can be affected by multiple factors. In contrast, mycotoxins are a challenging issue because they hinder performance and the immune system. Vitamin supplementation above minimum requirements would permit improvement in productive potential, health, bone and meat quality in a situation of mycotoxin challenge. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of optimum vitamin nutrition in diets contaminated with aflatoxin in broilers from 1 to 44 days of age. A total of 1800 Cobb 500 male chicks were randomized to 15 sets of eight treatment groups, each containing 15 birds using a 2 × 2 × 2 factorial design (commercial vitamin levels and high vitamin levels, two levels of aflatoxin – 0 and 0.5 ppm with binder levels of 0 and 10 000 mg/kg). The mash diets were corn and soybean meal based, formulated according to commercial practices. Feed intake, weight gain and feed conversion were analyzed for birds from 1 to 44 days of age. To determine carcass characteristics (carcass yield, breast yield and leg yield) and black bone syndrome, two birds were slaughtered from each group at 45 days. Other analyses included breast tenderness, water loss by dripping and malonaldehyde concentrations. The results demonstrated that broilers that were fed high levels of vitamins showed better weight gain, feed conversion, carcass yield and breast yield than broilers that were fed diets with commercial vitamin levels (P < 0.05); also, broilers that were fed diets containing 0.5 ppm aflatoxin had lower weight gain, carcass yield and breast yield (P < 0.05). The use of 10 000 mg/kg of binder improved (P < 0.05) feed conversion throughout the rearing period. We conclude that aflatoxin negatively affects performance and carcass yield; however, feeding optimum vitamin nutrition improved these performance traits. 相似文献

Interrelated effects of γ-linolenic acid (GLA) and sesamin, a sesame lignan, on hepatic fatty acid synthesis and oxidation were examined. Rats were fed experimental diets supplemented with 0 or 2 g/kg sesamin (1:1 mixture of sesamin and episesamin) and containing 100 g/kg of palm oil (saturated fat), safflower oil rich in linoleic acid, or oil of evening primrose origin containing 43% GLA (GLA oil) for 18 days. In rats fed sesamin-free diets, GLA oil, compared with other oils, increased the activity and mRNA levels of various enzymes involved in fatty acid oxidation, except for some instances. Sesamin greatly increased these parameters, and the enhancing effects of sesamin on peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation rate and acyl-CoA oxidase, enoyl-CoA hydratase and acyl-CoA thioesterase activities were more exaggerated in rats fed GLA oil than in the animals fed other oils. The combination of sesamin and GLA oil also synergistically increased the mRNA levels of some peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation enzymes and of several enzymes involved in fatty acid metabolism located in other cell organelles. In the groups fed sesamin-free diets, GLA oil, compared with other oils, markedly reduced the activity and mRNA levels of various lipogenic enzymes. Sesamin reduced all these parameters, except for malic enzyme, in rats fed palm and safflower oils, but the effects were attenuated in the animals fed GLA oil. These changes by sesamin and fat type accompanied profound alterations in serum lipid levels. This may be ascribable to the changes in apolipoprotein-B-containing lipoproteins. 相似文献

We examined the influence of food quality on the phototactic behaviour of Daphnia magna. Cohorts of a positively phototactic
D. magna clone were fed nine diets differing in quality. Diets were obtained by substitution of a fraction of unicellular
algae ( Scenedesmus acutus) by a biomass-equivalent of fresh yeast ( Saccharomyces cerevisiae). Some of the diets were enriched
with an inoculum of ciliates and organic compounds added as a hay infusion filtrate. Animals fed with a diet containing at
least 25% algae showed a similar phototactic behaviour as animals fed with a diet that contained 100% algae. Addition of ciliates
to the yeast diets resulted in a lower mortality and a higher reproductive rate compared to diets without a ciliate supplement.
The presence of ciliates did not influence phototactic behaviour. Experiments testing for a maternal effect showed that the
phototactic behaviour of the animals was strongly influenced by diet during the early developmental stages, but was not influenced
by the diet of the mother.

Effect of experimental oxidative stress on steroidogenesis and DNA damage in mouse testis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of oxidative stress induced by feeding various levels of selenium on steroidogenesis and DNA damage in mouse testes. To create various levels of oxidative stress in mice, diets with three different Se levels were fed to separate groups for 8 weeks. Group 1 animals were fed a yeast-based diet, which was considered a Se-deficient diet (0.02 ppm). Group 2 and 3 animals were fed a Sedeficient diet supplemented with 0.2 and 1 ppm Se as sodium selenite, respectively. After completion of the diet feeding, estimations were carried out, and results were compared with those of group 2. A significant decrease in Se levels was observed in group 1 animals, whereas they were greatly enhanced in group 3. Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity was greatly reduced in both the liver and testes in group 1, whereas no significant changes were found in GSH-Px activity in group 3. Serum luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and testosterone levels were reduced in group 1. Significant decreases of sperm number and motility were observed in group 1 when compared to group 2 male mice. No changes in these parameters were observed in group 3. DNA fragmentation was observed in both groups 1 and 3; however, the damage was more prevalent in group 1. The results clearly demonstrate the effect of oxidative stress generated by feeding various Se levels on the steroidogenesis and DNA fragmentation in mice testes. 相似文献

The effects of soybean oil (SOO, control), soybean lecithin (SOL), and of sterylglycocides (STG) and phospholipids (PL) fractionated from SOL on lipid indices in the plasma, liver, and feces were examined for male Wistar rats fed with diets containing these lipids for 3 weeks. The body weight gain and liver weight decreased or tended to be reduced in the animals given the diet containing a 5% STG mixture (STGM) compared with the values in the other dietary groups. The plasma lipid concentration in general declined in the rats fed with the diets supplemented with 5% SOL, STGM, or the PL mixture (PLM), and with 1% of STGM, acylated STG (ASTG), or non-acylated STG (NSTG). The triacylglycerol level was significantly depressed in the rats fed with the diets including 1 or 5% of STGM, ASTG, or NSTG when compared to the level of the SOO—fed animals. The total cholesterol and triacylglycerol contents in the liver were lower in the rats provided with the diets containing 5% of SOL, PC, or PLM than in the SOO- or STGM-diet-fed animals. The rats given the diets supplemented with 1 or 5% of STGM, ASTG, or NSTG had a decreased content of liver triacylglycerol compared with the content of the SOO—fed animals. The amounts of total lipids and total cholesterol excreted into the feces were higher in the rats fed with the diets supplemented with 5% SOL, or with 1% of STGM, ASTG, or NSTG, or especially with 5% STGM than in the SOO—fed animals. The present results suggest that STG suppressed the absorption of cholesterol and fatty acids in the intestines. 相似文献

Studies have shown that dietary fat saturation affects guinea pig plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels by altering both LDL receptor-mediated catabolism and flux rates of LDL (Fernandez et al. 1992. J. Lipid Res. 33: 97-109). The present studies investigated whether saturated fatty acids of varying chain lengths have differential effects on LDL metabolism. Guinea pigs were fed 15% (w/w, 35% calories) fat diets containing either palm kernel oil (PK), 52% lauric acid/18% myristic acid; palm oil (PO), 43% palmitic acid/4% stearic acid; or beef tallow (BT), 23% palmitic acid/14% stearic acid. Plasma LDL cholesterol levels were significantly higher for animals fed the PK diet (P < 0.001) with values of 83 +/- 19 (n = 12), 53 +/- 8 (n = 12) and 44 +/- 16 (n = 10) mg/dl for PK, PO, and BT diets, respectively. The relative percentage composition of LDL was modified by fat type; however, LDL diameters and peak densities were not different between diets, indicating no effect of saturated fatty acid composition on LDL size. ApoB/E receptor-mediated LDL fractional catabolic rates (FCR) were significantly lower in animals fed the PK diet (P < 0.01) and LDL apoB flux rates were reduced (P < 0.01) in animals fed the BT diet. A correlation was found between plasma LDL levels and receptor-mediated LDL catabolism (r = -0.66, P < 0.01). A higher apoB/E receptor number (Bmax), determined by in vitro LDL binding to guinea pig hepatic membranes, was observed for animals fed BT versus PK or PO diets and Bmax values were significantly correlated with plasma LDL levels (r = -0.776, P < 0.001). These results indicate that saturated fatty acids of varying chain length have differential effects on hepatic apoB/E receptor expression and on LDL apoB flux rates which in part account for differences in plasma LDL cholesterol levels of guinea pigs fed these saturated fats. 相似文献

Oak acorn contains high levels of tannins which have capacity to form complexes with proteins and consequently reduce their availability and as a result it could reduce colostrum quality and immunoglobulin (Ig) synthesis. Thus, the aim of this experiment was to investigate the effects of dietary oak (Quercus persica) acorn (OA) level during the last 60 days of pregnancy on colostrum composition and plasma metabolites and IgG level of goats and their kids. In all, 24 multiparous pregnant goats (41.7±2.3 kg BW) were assigned into one of the three experimental diets consisted of control diet (without OA) and diets containing 20% (OA20) or 40% (OA40) OA on dry matter basis. Goats fed OA40 had lower BW change compared with other groups (P⩽0.05). Kids birth weight was not affected by experimental diets (P>0.05). Goats fed OA containing diets had lower plasma glucose, triglyceride and Fe concentrations compared with those fed the control diet (P<0.01). Plasma IgG (P<0.01) and urea (P<0.05) concentrations were lower in goats fed OA40 compared with others. Animals fed OA containing diets had higher plasma alanine aminotransferase than those fed the control diet (P<0.05). Goats fed OA40 produced colostrum with lower fat (P⩽0.05) and lactose (P<0.01) contents compared with other animals. Goats fed OA containing diets had lower colostrum IgG level than those fed the control diet (P⩽0.05). Kids plasma total protein concentration was not affected by experimental diets (P>0.05), whereas kids born from goats fed OA containing diets had lower plasma IgG level compared with the control diet (P<0.01). It is concluded that feeding OA during the last 60 days of pregnancy decreased colostrum quality which may have adverse effect on kid’s survival. 相似文献

Dietary vitamin C and its derivatives affect immune responses in grass shrimp, Penaeus monodon 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Effects of L-ascorbic acid (AA) and its four derivatives, namely L-ascorbyl-2-sulfate (C2S), L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (C2PP), L-ascorbyl-2-monophosphate-Na (C2MP-Na) and L-ascorbyl-2-monophosphate-Mg (C2MP-Mg) on the immune responses of juvenile grass shrimp, Penaeus monodon, were studied. The vitamin C deprived diet together with diets supplemented with either adequate or high (five times adequate) levels of AA, C2S, C2PP, C2MP-Na and C2MP-Mg were each fed to triplicate groups of shrimp (mean initial weight: 0.37 +/- 0.01 g) for 8 weeks. Significantly (P<0.01) higher weight gain (WG), feed efficiency (FE), survival, total haemocyte count (THC), superoxide anion (O2) production ratio and phenoloxidase (PO) activity were observed in shrimp fed diets supplemented with adequate and high levels of ascorbate than shrimp fed the vitamin C deprived diet, regardless of the ascorbate source. Among the ascorbate sources, shrimp fed C2MP-Mg and C2PP containing diets had higher THC than shrimp fed AA, C2S and C2MP-Na containing diets, regardless of the supplementation level. Shrimp fed adequate levels of C2MP-Mg and C2PP and high levels of C2MP-Mg containing diets had higher O2 production ratios than shrimp fed AA and C2S containing diets. Shrimp fed adequate levels of C2MP-Mg and C2PP and high levels of C2PP containing diets had higher PO activity than shrimp fed AA, C2S and C2MP-Na containing diets. These data suggest that dietary ascorbate enhances immune responses in P. monodon and different ascorbate sources may affect the immune responses differently. 相似文献

The goal of this study was to better understand why dietary soybean products are poorly utilized by salmonids. The influence of dietary intake on coho salmon fingerling weight gain and specific properties of pyloric caeca enzymes was investigated. Fingerlings were fed diets containing heated or unheated soybean meal (SBM) or Promoveal™, as 15–25% herring meal replacer, for 8–12 weeks. Fish fed to apparent satiation with diets containing heated SBM replacer gained more weight than those fed unheated SBM at the same level. Fish increased in body weight at the same rate when fed restricted rations containing either 15% SBM replacer that was variously heated up to 20 min, 15% Promoveal™ replacer or the herring meal basal diet. After the experimental diets were fed, digestive proteinases were isolated from the pyloric caeca. Yield of pyloric caeca enzymes (PCE), recovery of trypsin in PCE, soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI) sensitivity of PCE trypsin, specific activity of PCE trypsin and in vitro casein digestibility by PCE were determined for each dietary group. Weight gain vs in vitro casein digestibility by PCE was linear for animals fed unheated SBM to apparent satiation (r2 = 0.71, P < 0.1) but not for animals fed either heated SBM to apparent satiation or variously heated SBM as 15% replacer at restricted levels. Trypsin from fish fed diets with heated or unheated SBM, but not Promoveal™ replacer, was less sensitive to SBTI than fish fed no SBM. For fish fed diets with variously heated SBM as 15% replacer, the SBTI activity of the SBM and SBTI inhibition of PCE trypsin were inversely related (r2 = 0.88, P < 0.05). The yield of PCE was higher for fish fed 25% of heated SBM replacer than it was for diet groups fed less SBM. The yield of PCE trypsin was higher from animals fed 25% heated SBM replacer than those fed diets with a lower percentage of heated SBM replacer. Feeding coho fingerlings rations with SBM replacer appears to promote physiological compensation of PCE. Heat stable and/or heat-activated factor(s) and SBTI appear to cause the compensation of salmon digestive proteinases from coho salmon fed diets with SBM. 相似文献

The use of fruit-based diets by a small arboreal marsupial, the woolly opossum (Caluromys philander) was studied to elucidate the mechanisms used to compensate for a low dietary protein concentration. The passage of a liquid
phase digesta marker (Cr-EDTA) through the gut was significantly faster when animals were fed a diet containing 0.45% N compared
to that measured on a diet containing 0.90% N. The size of the gut of the two groups was similar except that the caecum of
animals fed 0.45% N was significantly larger than in those animals fed 0.90% N. Animals fed a diet of 0.45% N ate significantly
more food than those fed higher levels of nitrogen but there was no significant difference in the dry matter digestibility
of the diet. The maintenance nitrogen requirement of the animals was 176 mg dietary N or 146 mg truly digestible nitrogen
per kg metabolic body mass, with low losses of non-dietary faecal nitrogen being notable. There was no significant difference
between diets in any measured parameter of urea metabolism and all animals recycled between 60% and 80% of the endogenously
synthesised urea.
