Specificity of Rumen Ciliate Protozoa in Cattle and Sheep*

SYNOPSIS. Six protozoa-free sheep, 3 fed alfalfa hay and 3 fed a concentrate diet, were inoculated with rumen contents from a steer fed the same alfalfa hay. All 24 species of protozoa in the inoculum became established in the sheep fed alfalfa hay, while only 9 species established in the sheep fed concentrate. Percentage species composition in the alfalfa-fed sheep was fairly similar to that of the inoculum. Rumen volumes of the alfalfa hay-fed sheep were significantly higher than those of the concentrate-fed sheep; however, fluid turnover rates were similar. Total protozoan numbers per ml of rumen contents were significantly higher in the concentrate-fed sheep, but after adjustment for rumen volume, there was no significant difference in the total number of protozoa in the rumen.

Cholesterol Esters of the Human Brain During Fetal and Early Postnatal Development: Content and Fatty Acid Composition

Abstract: The content and fatty acid composition of cholesterol esters of the human brain during development from 13 weeks' gestation up to 26 months of age was studied. The three major brain areas, the forebrain, cerebellum, and the brain stem, were studied separately. The concentration of the esters in each brain region was the highest at the earliest fetal age of 13 weeks and fell during growth. However, transient rises in the concentration were observed, at about birth in the forebrain and at 4–5 months after birth in the cerebellum The peak concentration during the transient period (125–150 μg/g fresh tissue of forebrain and 100–125 μg/g of cerebellum) was similar to the concentrations observed in the two parts respectively during early fetal ages. The brain stem also showed similar transient peak at about a few weeks before birth, but only when the esters were expressed as amount per cell. In absolute terms, a clear transient period was evident in the forebrain between birth and 9 months, while in the cerebellum or the brain stem, the total amount of the esters increased up to about 1 year of age and then remained almost unchanged. The major fatty acids of the esters were palmitic, palmitoleic, stearic, oleic, linoleic and arachidonic acid. Most of these fatty acids showed certain changes in relative proportions during development. Thus, in the forebrain, palmitic and oleic acid decreased from about 32% and 40% (weight percentages) at 13–15 weeks of gestation to about 20% and 25% respectively at 26 months of age. During this period, linoleic and arachidonic acid increased from about 3% and S% to about 10% and 24%, respectively. Most of these changes occurred after birth. The cerebellum and the brain stem differed only slightly from the forebrain in either the fatty acid composition or the pattern of the developmental changes in the composition.     

Influence of Diet Composition on Cattle Rumen Methanogenesis: A Comparative Metagenomic Analysis in Indian and Exotic Cattle

Comparative metagenomics approach has been used in this study to discriminate colonization of methanogenic population in different breeds of cattle. We compared two Indian cattle breeds (Gir and Kankrej) and two exotic cattle (Holstein and Jersey) breeds. Using a defined dietary plan for selected Indian varieties, the diet dependent shifts in microbial community and abundance of the enzymes associated with methanogenesis were studied. This data has been compared with the available rumen metagenome data from Holstein and Jersey dairy cattle. The abundance of genes for methanogenesis in Holstein and Jersey cattle came from Methanobacteriales order whereas, majority of the enzymes for methanogenesis in Gir and Kankrej cattle came from Methanomicrobiales order. The study suggested that by using slow/less digestible feed, the propionate levels could be controlled in rumen; and in turn, this would also help in further reducing the hydrogenotrophic production of methane. The study proposes that with the designed diet plan the overall methanogenic microbial pool or the individual methanogens could be targeted for development of methane mitigation strategies.     

Influence of DGAT1 K232A Polymorphism on Milk Fat Percentage and Fatty Acid Profiles in Romanian Holstein Cattle

Milk and dairy products are considered the main sources of saturated fatty acids, which are a valuable source of nutrients in the human diet. Fat composition can be adjusted through guided nutrition of dairy animals but also through selective breeding. Recently, a dinucleotide substitution located in the exon 8 of the gene coding for acyl CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1), that alters the amino acid sequence from a lysine to an alanine (p.Lys232Ala) in the mature protein, was shown to have a strong effect on milk fat content in some cattle breeds. Therefore, the objectives of this work were to study the occurrence of the DGAT1 p.Lys232Ala polymorphism in Romanian Holstein cattle and Romanian Buffalo breeds and to further investigate its possible influence on fat percentage and fatty acid profiles. The results obtained in this study show that in Romanian Holstein cattle the K allele is associated with increased fat percentage and higher levels of C16:0 and C18:0 fatty acids. The ratio of saturated fatty acids versus unsaturated fatty acids (SFA/UFA) was also higher in KK homozygous individuals, whereas the fractions of C14:0, unsaturated C18 decreased. The DGAT1 p.Lys232Ala polymorphism revealed a high genetic variance for fat percentage, unsaturated C18, C16:0, and SFA/UFA. Although the effect of this polymorphism was not so evident for short chain fatty acids such as C4:0–C8:0, it was significant for C14:0 fatty acids. We concluded that selective breeding of carriers of the A allele in Romanian Holsteins can contribute to improvement in unsaturated fatty acids content of milk. However, in buffalo, the lack of the A allele makes selection inapplicable because only the K allele, associated with higher saturated fatty acids contents in milk, was identified.

Lipid and Fatty Acid Composition of Brain Tissue from Adrenoleukodystrophy Patients

Abstract: White matter and active plaque tissue from adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) patients were analysed for lipid class and fatty acid compositions and the results compared with white matter from normal brain. ALD white matter was characterized by increased levels of cholesteryl esters and decreased levels of phosphatidylethanola- mine, including phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogen, in comparison with normal brain white matter. In addition to even higher levels of cholesteryl esters, ALD plaque tissue had reduced levels of cerebrosides as well as phosphati-dylethanolamines. The loss of phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogen is indicative of early demyelination. Total lipid from ALD white matter and ALD plaque tissue contained nearly five times and seven times, respectively, more 26:0 than total lipid from normal brain white matter. The 26:0 in ALD white matter was elevated in all lipid classes except phosphatidylinositol, but was located mainly in cerebrosides, phosphatidylcholine, sphingomyelin, and sulfatides. Most of the 26:0 in ALD plaque tissue was present in cholesteryl esters, followed by phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin, with reduced amounts in cerebrosides as compared with ALD white matter. The results are consistent with an initial accumulation of very-long-chain fatty acids in ALD white matter, primarily in sphingolipids and phosphatidylcholine, and subsequent accumulation of very-long- chain fatty acids in cholesteryl esters during demyelination. In addition, it was notable that the sphingolipids, especially sphingomyelin in ALD brain, had decreased levels of 24:1 and increased levels of 18:0, as well as increased levels of very-long-chain fatty acids. The extent to which the data shed light on mechanisms of demyelination in ALD is discussed.

Rumen Ciliate Protozoa of the Blue Duiker (Cephalophus monticola), with Observations on Morphological Variation Lines Within the Species Entodinium dubardi

ABSTRACT. Protozoal concentrations were determined in rumen and cecal contents of 20 blue duikers ( Cephalophus monticola ). Ten animals of each sex were fed either a high concentrate or high roughage diet. Rumen protozoa were present in 19 of the 20 animals and concentrations ranged from 4.5 to 33.7 × 10⁶ per g of rumen contents. At the higher concentrations, protozoal cells equaled between 30–40% of the total rumen contents volume. No protozoa were found in cecal contents. Weight of rumen contents was higher in females than in males ( P < 0.01), and rumen protozoa concentrations were higher in males ( P < 0.05) and in those animals fed the high concentrate diet ( P < 0.05). All the protozoa were identified as belonging to a single species, Entodinium dubardi . However, an average of about 30% of the E. dubardi cells varied from the typical morphology of this species. These cells appeared to be on variation lines leading toward 7–10 other non-caudate species of Entodinium . The present data were used to evaluate and discuss the concept of variation lines within E. dubardi .     

Recovery of Altered Fatty Acid Composition Induced by a Diet Devoid of n-3 Fatty Acids in Myelin, Synaptosomes, Mitochondria, and Microsomes of Developing Rat Brain

Rats were fed a semisynthetic diet containing either sunflower oil or soya oil. Half the litter fed with sunflower oil diet was changed to a soya oil diet when the pups were 15 days old (during active myelination). Fatty acid analysis was then performed on subcellular fractions of the animals fed (a) soya oil, (b) sunflower oil, and (c) soya oil replacing sunflower oil from the 15th day, to determine the speed of the recovery. All material from animals fed sunflower oil showed an important reduction in docosahexaenoic acid (22:6 n-3), compensated by an increase in docosapentaenoic acid (22:5 n-6), whereas arachidonic acid (20:4 n-6) was not affected. In all fractions examined, when sunflower oil was replaced by soya oil in 15-day-old pups the recovery started from the very first day but lasted more than 2 months (this recovery was determined by the increase of 22:6 n-3 up to the normal value and decrease of the 22:5 n-6). In addition a delay was found for myelin recovery, starting only from the 25th day.     

Fatty Acid Composition of Endoneurium and Perineurium from Adult Rat Sciatic Nerve

Reports on lipid composition of peripheral nervous system have generally been restricted to the saturated fatty acids of the endoneurium. In this work we attempt to determine the fatty acid composition of the different lipid classes in both endo- and perineurium from sciatic nerve microdissection on adult rats. Unsaturated fatty acids were found to make up around 60% of total fatty acids in samples of endoneurium and perineurium, with monounsaturated fatty acids forming 40-50% of total unsaturated fatty acid content. Although the same fatty acids were present in both tissues there was a striking difference in C 18:1 (n-9) and C 18:2 (n-6) ratio between endoneurium and perineurium, which is particularly rich in linoleic acid. The nonpolar perineurial lipids were found to be richest in linoleic acid. Phospholipids were present in the perineurium, and they contained high proportions of saturated and medium-chain monounsaturated fatty acids.     

Cellular Fatty Acid Composition and Identification of Rumen Bacteria

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.     

Fatty Acid Composition of Baobab Seed and Its Relationship with the Genus Adansonia Taxonomy

Baobab seed oil contains specific fatty acids. Most of the studies on baobab fatty acids have been carried out singly and in isolation from each other, making it difficult to compare results through different species. The objective of the present study is to establish the seed fatty acid composition of each Adansonia species in order to evaluate and understand the relationships between the oil chemical compositions, the baobabs’ taxonomy and, the ecological and geographical origin of each seed lot. The seed oils have been analysed using gas chromatography (GC). The oils of all baobab species contain three major fatty acids: palmitic, oleic and linoleic acids. They also contain specific fatty acids such as cyclopropenic and cyclopropanic acids, which are characteristic of the Malvaceae family seed oils. It was possible to distinguish three sections through principal components analysis using the eleven fatty acids identified by GC. The Adansonia section contains high rates of oleic acid (± 35%), the Brevitubae section is rich in palmitic acid (± 42%) and the Longitubae section contains high levels of dihydrosterulic acid (± 5%). The oil fatty acid composition, however, does not enable a definitive characterization of profiles according to species. The fatty acid composition is not significantly influenced by the geographical, soil and climate conditions of the collection sites.     

Effect of Dietary Mono- and Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids on the Fatty Acid Composition of Pigs' Adipose Tissues

In two experiments with growing-finishing pigs six different dietary fats were added to a conventional diet (control - C) to study the effects of dietary monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on the fatty acid composition of backfat and kidney fat at similar amounts of double bonds in feed (Exp. 1:7% pork fat - PF, 4.95% olive oil - OO, 3.17% soybean oil - SO) or a constant amount of 5% of processed fats (Exp. 2: partially hydrogenated fat - SAT, fractionated pork fats: olein - OLE, stearin - STE). Compared with the control, PUFA were only slightly increased in backfat of pigs fed PF, OLE, STE or OO, although dietary PUFA intake was up to 70% higher. With SO PUFA were significantly increased in adipose tissues, predominantly at the expense of MUFA. Consequently, a non-linear relationship was found between PUFA intake and proportion in backfat. MUFA were incorporated at the expense of SFA, therefore, adipose tissues of OO fed animals were lowest in SFA. Despite comparable amounts of double bonds in feed (Exp. 1), the degree of unsaturation measured as fat score (sum of double bonds) was in the order SO > OO > PF > C. In contrast, the proportion of SFA was C > PF = SO > OO. Regarding the decisive role of SFA for fat consistency it may be concluded that MUFA should also be considered in feeding recommendations for pigs. Furthermore, in case of a high dietary supply of MUFA, a simple index of double bonds might not be sufficiently conclusive to judge pig fat quality.

Intrauterine Growth Retardation (Malnutrition by Vascular Ligation) Induces Modifications in Fatty Acid Composition of Neurons and Oligodendrocytes

Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) induced by ligation of one uterine artery on day 17 of pregnancy in the rat lead to major abnormalities in the fatty acid content of neurons and oligodendrocytes but not in astrocytes. In neurons from IUGR rats, monounsaturated fatty acids were decreased; in the polyunsaturated series, ω-3 fatty acids were increased and Ω-6 fatty acids were decreased. In oligodendrocytes, monounsaturated fatty acids were also decreased, but the modifications in polyunsaturated fatty acids were the opposite of those in neurons: Ω-3 being decreased and w-6 increased. Although the animals received a normal diet after birth, the alterations were still present in adulthood. In addition, fatty acid composition of brain cells is a very indicative criterion of brain maturation.     

Cholesterol Esters in Rat Brain Infected with Acute Measles Encephalitis: Concentration and Fatty Acid Composition

The present study deals with the concentration and fatty acid composition of cholesterol esters in rat brains infected experimentally with measles virus to induce acute encephalitis. The left side of the cerebrum, as well as other portions of the brain, when inoculated percutaneously contained a large amount of cholesterol esters. The major fatty acids from the esters in the brain were C16:0, C16:1, C18:0, and C18:1; those from the serum were C18:1, C18:2, and C20:4. This result indicates that cholesterol esters may not come from serum but can be synthesized in situ, even in the brain with acute viral infection.
