Abstract Rendered products from the meat industry can provide economical quality sources of proteins to the animal and feed industry. Similar to lipids, rendered proteins are susceptible to oxidation, yet the stability of these proteins is unclear. In addition, interest in understanding how oxidative stress can impact efficiency in production animals is increasing. Recent studies show that consumption of oxidized lipids can lead to a change in the oxidative status of the animal as well as decreases in production efficiency. To date, little is known about how consumption of oxidized proteins impacts oxidative status and growth performance. The objectives of this study were to determine if feeding diets high in oxidized protein to growing pigs would: 1) impact growth performance and 2) induce oxidative stress. Thirty pigs (42 d old; initial body weight [BW] 12.49 ± 1.45 kg) were randomly assigned to one of three dietary treatments with increasing levels of oxidized protein. Spray-dried bovine plasma was used as the protein source and was either unheated upon arrival, heated at 45 °C for 4 d, or heated at 100 °C for 3 d. Diets were fed for 19 d and growth performance was measured. Blood plasma (days 0 and 18), jejunum, colon, and liver tissues (day 19) were collected to analyze for markers of oxidative stress (e.g., protein oxidation, lipid oxidation, DNA damage, and glutathione peroxidase activity). Average daily gain (ADG;P < 0.01) and average daily feed intake (ADFI;P < 0.01) had a positive linear relationship to increased protein oxidation, but there was no effect on gain to feed ratio. Furthermore, protein (P = 0.03) and fat (P < 0.01) digestibility were reduced with increased protein oxidation in the diet. Crypt depth showed a positive linear relationship with dietary protein oxidation levels (P = 0.02). A trend was observed in liver samples where pigs fed the plasma heated to 45 °C had increased lipid oxidation compared with pigs fed the plasma either unheated or heated to 100 °C (P = 0.09). DNA damage in the jejunum tended to have a linear relationship with the dietary protein oxidation level (P = 0.07). Even though results suggest dietary oxidized protein did not induce oxidative stress during short-term feeding, differences in performance, gut morphology, and digestibility are likely a result of reduced protein availability.

Abstract The experimental objective was to investigate the impact of xylanase on the bioavailability of energy, oxidative status, and gut function of growing pigs fed a diet high in insoluble fiber and given a longer adaptation time than typically reported. Three replicates of 20 gilts with an initial body weight (BW) of 25.43 ± 0.88 kg were blocked by BW, individually housed, and randomly assigned to one of four dietary treatments: a low-fiber control (LF) with 7.5% neutral detergent fiber (NDF), a 30% corn bran without solubles high-fiber control (HF; 21.9% NDF), HF + 100 mg/kg xylanase (HF + XY; Econase XT 25P), and HF + 50 mg/kg arabinoxylan-oligosaccharide (HF + AX). Gilts were fed ad libitum for 36 d across two dietary phases. Pigs and feeders were weighed on days 0, 14, 27, and 36. On day 36, pigs were housed in metabolism crates for a 10-d period, limit fed (80% of average ad libitum intake), and feces and urine were collected the last 72 h to determine the digestible energy (DE) and metabolizable energy (ME). On day 46, serum and ileal and colonic tissue were collected. Data were analyzed as a linear mixed model with block and replication as random effects, and treatment, time, and treatment × time as fixed effects. There was a significant treatment × time interaction for BW, average daily gain (ADG), and gain to feed (G:F; P < 0.001). By design, BW at day 0 did not differ; at day 14, pigs fed LF were 3.5% heavier, and pigs fed HF + XY, when compared with HF, were 4% and 4.2% heavier at days 27 and 36, respectively (P < 0.001). From day 14 to 27 and day 27 to 36, when compared with HF, HF + XY improved ADG by 12.4% and 10.7% and G:F by 13.8% and 8.8%, respectively (P < 0.05). Compared with LF, HF decreased DE and ME by 0.51 and 0.42 Mcal/kg, respectively, but xylanase partially mitigated that effect by increasing DE and ME by 0.15 and 0.12 Mcal/kg, over HF, respectively (P < 0.05). Pigs fed HF + XY had increased total antioxidant capacity in the serum and ileum (P < 0.05) and tended to have less circulating malondialdehyde (P = 0.098). Pigs fed LF had increased ileal villus height, and HF + XY and HF + AX had shallower intestinal crypts (P < 0.001). Pigs fed HF + XY had increased ileal messenger ribonucleic acid abundance of claudin 4 and occludin (P < 0.05). Xylanase, but not AX, improved the growth performance of pigs fed insoluble corn-based fiber. This was likely a result of the observed increase in ME, improved antioxidant capacity, and enhanced gut barrier integrity, but it may require increased adaptation time to elicit this response.

Black currant is known as a fruit with a very strong in vitro antioxidative capacity, but its in vivo antioxidant efficacy has not yet been characterized. The aim of the experiment was to determine the potency of black currant juice in comparison to vitamin E, for decreasing oxidative stress. Oxidative stress was induced by high intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in pigs as a model for humans. Twenty-four growing pigs were divided into four groups. All groups received isocaloric daily rations composed of an equal amount of basal diet that was supplemented with starch (CONT), linseed oil (OIL), linseed oil and black currant juice (OIL+BCJ), or linseed oil and vitamin E (OIL+VIT E). The experiment confirmed that the high proportion of PUFAs in the OIL group increased oxidative stress. In comparison with the OIL group, vitamin E supplementation significantly lowered plasma malondiadehyde (MDA) and the 24-hour urine MDA excretion rate, and reduced the degree of DNA damage in leukocytes to the level of the CONT group. The black currant juice intake failed to significantly decrease plasma MDA and 24-hour urine MDA excretion rate, but did reduce the degree of DNA damage in leukocytes to the level of the CONT group, as well as increase plasma β+γ-tocopherol concentrations. Although black currant juice did not reduce the formation of MDA, it efficiently prevented DNA damage induced by the high intake of PUFAs. It could be concluded that under these experimental conditions vitamin E was more efficient as an antioxidant that black currant juice.

Neonates are particularly susceptible to malnutrition due to their limited reserves of micronutrients and their rapid growth. In the present study, we examined the effect of vitamin C deficiency on markers of oxidative stress in plasma, liver and brain of weanling guinea pigs. Vitamin C deficiency caused rapid and significant depletion of ascorbate (P < 0·001), tocopherols (P < 0·001) and glutathione (P < 0·001), and a decrease in superoxide dismutase activity (P = 0·005) in the liver, while protein oxidation was significantly increased (P = 0·011). No changes in lipid oxidation or oxidatively damaged DNA were observed in this tissue. In the brain, the pattern was markedly different. Of the measured antioxidants, only ascorbate was significantly depleted (P < 0·001), but in contrast to the liver, ascorbate oxidation (P = 0·034), lipid oxidation (P < 0·001), DNA oxidation (P = 0·13) and DNA incision repair (P = 0·014) were all increased, while protein oxidation decreased (P = 0·003). The results show that the selective preservation of brain ascorbate and induction of DNA repair in vitamin C-deficient weanling guinea pigs is not sufficient to prevent oxidative damage. Vitamin C deficiency may therefore be particularly adverse during the neonatal period.

Protein requirements for slow-growing pigs have not been defined. The study was designed to determine the relationship between the level of dietary protein and nitrogen balance in slow-growing Windsnyer pigs. Thirty Windsnyer pigs with an initial bodyweight of 34.7 (SD = 0.85) kg were randomly assigned to six experimental diets containing 193, 174, 154, 135, 117, and 97 g/kg of crude protein (CP). Pigs were penned individually. There were five pigs in each diet. The faecal nitrogen output (NFO) showed a decreasing quadratic relationship with protein level. A linear relationship between protein level and urinary nitrogen excretion was observed (P =0.0001). The total nitrogen excreted showed a significant quadratic relationship to decreasing levels of CP in the diets (P =0.0001). The apparent digestibility of nitrogen had a linear relationship with dietary CP level (P =0.0005). A quadratic relationship between dietary protein level and N utilization was observed (P =0.0001). The optimum protein level for total nitrogen excreted, nitrogen utilization and biological value of feed protein were attained at 135 g/kg protein level. The efficiency of nitrogen utilization supports the low protein diet. The present results suggest reducing the dietary protein level for Windsnyer pigs to decrease amount of excreted N that is deposited into the environment.Protein requirements for slow-growing pigs have not been defined.

Objects.The aim of this study is to evaluate protein oxidation, DNA damage, and lipid peroxidation in patients with gastric cancer and to investigate the relationship between oxidative stress and gastric cancer.Methods. We investigated changes in serum protein carbonyl (PC), advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), and 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) levels, as indicators of protein oxidation, serum 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), as a biomarker of DNA damage, and malondialdehyde (MDA), conjugated diene (CD), 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), and 8-ISO-prostaglandinF2α(8-PGF) in serum, as lipid peroxidation markers in gastric cancer (GC) patients and healthy control.Results. Compared with control, a statistically significant higher values of 8-OHdG, PC, AOPP, and 3-NT were observed in the GC patients (P<0.05). The products of lipid peroxidation, MDA, CD, 4-HNE, and 8-PGF, were significantly lower in the GC patients compared to those of control (P<0.05). In addition, the products of oxidative stress were similar between the Helicobacter pylori positive and the negative subgroups of GC patients.Conclusions. GC patients were characterized by increased protein oxidation and DNA damage, and decreased lipid peroxidation. Assessment of oxidative stress and augmentation of the antioxidant defense system may be important for the treatment and prevention of gastric carcinogenesis.

Abstract The present study investigated the interactive effect of functional amino acid (AA) supplementation and dietary protein level on growth performance and immune status in Salmonella-challenged pigs. Thirty-two growing pigs (8 pigs/treatment; 13.9 ± 0.82 kg initial body weight) had ad libitum access to 1 of 4 experiment diets in a 2×2 factorial arrangement with factors of dietary protein (LP: Low, 16% protein vs. High: HP, 20% protein) and 2 levels of functional AA supply (AA-: basal vs. AA+: Thr, Met, and Trp provided at 20% above requirement). After 7 d of adaptation, pigs were orally inoculated with saline containing Salmonella typhimurium (ST). Performance parameters [average daily gain (ADG), feed intake, and gain:feed (GF)] were measured in the pre- and post-inoculation periods. Blood samples were collected on d0, 4 and 7 post-inoculation for serum haptoglobin and albumin analysis. Shedding of ST (d1, 2, 4 and 6 post-inoculation) and quantification in digesta (ileum, cecum and colon; d7 post-inoculation) were analyzed. There was no effect of diet on pre-inoculation performance (P &gt; 0.05). Pigs fed AA+ showed increased ADG (0.457 vs. 0.298 ± 0.051 kg/d; P &lt; 0.05) and a trend for improved GF (0.67 vs. 0.40 ± 0.07 kg/kg; P &lt; 0.10) post-inoculation compared to AA- regardless of dietary protein level. Feeding AA+ increased overall albumin levels (35.7 vs. 34.2 ± 0.9 g/L; P &lt; 0.05) and decreased overall haptoglobin levels (1.64 vs. 1.81 ± 0.12 g/L; P &lt; 0.05) and decreased overall shedding score of ST (2.27 vs. 2.51 ± 0.09; P &lt; 0.05) compared to AA-. The ST counts in cecal digesta increased (2.78 vs. 2.23 ± 0.18 Log10 cfu/g; P &lt; 0.05) in pigs fed HP compared to LP-fed pigs and ST counts in colon were reduced (2.08 ± 0.18 vs. 2.61 ± 0.19 Log10 cfu/g; P &lt; 0.05) in AA+ compared to AA- pigs. Supplementation of diets with specific functional AA improved performance and health status of pigs when exposed to an enteric disease challenge.

Abstract High environmental temperature due to climate change can accelerate oxidation of feed during storage and preparation. Oxidized feed can cause elevated oxidative stress in live birds, resulting in decreased productivity and meat quality of broilers. The study was aimed to determine effects of feed containing oxidized oil on growth performance, plasma oxidative stress, and breast meat quality of broilers. Male broilers (192; Cobb500) at 21 days old were randomly allotted to 32 pens (8 pens/treatment) and raised for 21 days. The birds were fed feed containing fresh (Control) or oxidized corn oil (5%, Peroxide Value:140) with or without vitamin E (500 IU/kg feed) supplementation. Growth performance, oxidative stress markers in plasma collected at Day 42, and quality parameters of breast meat harvested at Day 43 were determined. Data were analyzed using proc glm and means were compared using Tukey’s studentized range (HSD) test. Oxidized feed and/or vitamin E supplementation did not affect growth performance and plasma DNA and protein oxidation. Oxidized feed significantly increased lipid oxidation and reduced total antioxidant capacity in plasma (P &lt; 0.05) and, interestingly, dietary vitamin E made them worse (P &lt; 0.05), indicating that oxidized lipids in feed can induce oxidative stress in live birds and vitamin E may act as a pro-oxidant in highly oxidized conditions. Although they did not affect sensory and functional properties of chicken breast meat, oxidized feed significantly increased lipid oxidation in cooked meat (P &lt; 0.05) but dietary vitamin E considerably inhibited its development (P &lt; 0.05), indicating that oxidized oil and vitamin E in feed can be accumulated in muscle and act as a pro- and anti-oxidants in meat, respectively. The results suggested that oxidized oil in feed can increase oxidative stress in live birds and susceptibility of breast meat to lipid oxidation, and dietary vitamin E can improve its oxidative stability.

AbstractThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of nucleotide supplementation on the oxidative stress induced by a high proportion of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids ( PUFAs) in pigs. Twenty-four male growing pigs were penned individually and after an adaptation period divided into three groups. All groups received isocaloric daily rations composed of a basal diet supplemented with either: starch (CONT), linseed oil (LIN) and LIN and nucleotides (LIN + NUC). The experimental period lasted 21 days. Oxidative stress was evaluated by measuring the degree of lymphocyte nuclear DNA damage, the urine malondialdehyde ( MDA) excretion rate, erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase concentration and the total anti-oxidant status of plasma. Malondialdehyde concentrations in the blood and MDA urinary excretion rates were higher (P< 0·01) in animals supplemented with LIN and LIN + NUC compared with CONT animals. The degree of DNA damage in the LIN-supplemented animals was also higher (P< 0·01). Compared with the LIN-supplemented animals, nucleotide supplementation reduced (P< 0·01) the degree of DNA damage in lymphocytes to the level of the CONT group. Erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase concentration and plasma total anti-oxidant status were similar across treatments. The results of this experiment indicate that nucleotide supplementation effectively eliminates the genotoxic effects of high PUFA intakes on blood lymphocytes and demonstrates new evidence for the immunonutritive effect of nucleotides.
