Importance of adapted digestion conditions to simulate in vitro lipid digestion of broilers in different life stages. ANIMAL NUTRITION (ZHONGGUO XU MU SHOU YI XUE HUI) 2022; 12:151-158.

Abstract
In vitro digestion studies demonstrate large potential to gain more and quicker insights into the underlying mechanisms of feed additives, allowing the optimization of feed design. Unfortunately, current in vitro digestion models relevant for broiler chickens lack sufficient description in terms of protocols and standardisation used. Furthermore, no distinction is made between the different life phases of these animals (starter, grower, and finisher). Hence, our research aimed to establish adapted in vitro digestion conditions, corresponding to the 3 life phases in broilers, with specific focus on lipid digestion. The effect of 3 different bile salt concentrations of 2, 10, and 20 mM, and 3 different lipase activities of 5, 20, and 100 U/mL, on in vitro lipid digestion kinetics were evaluated using a full factorial design. These values were selected to represent starter, grower, and finisher birds, respectively. Our findings showed that the extent of lipid digestion was mainly influenced by lipase activity. The rate of lipid digestion was affected by an interplay between bile salt concentration and lipase activity, due to possible lipase inhibition at certain bile salt concentrations. Overall, this work resulted in 3 in vitro lipid digestion models representative for starter, grower, and finisher birds. In conclusion, this research showed the impact of adapted in vitro digestion conditions on lipid digestion kinetics and thus the need for these conditions relevant for each life phase of broilers.

Sub-lethal effects of permethrin exposure on a passerine: implications for managing ectoparasites in wild bird nests. CONSERVATION PHYSIOLOGY 2020; 8:coaa076. [PMID: 32908668 PMCID: PMC7416766 DOI: 10.1093/conphys/coaa076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2020] [Revised: 07/10/2020] [Accepted: 07/26/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Permethrin is increasingly used for parasite control in bird nests, including nests of threatened passerines. We present the first formal evaluation of the effects of continued permethrin exposure on the reproductive success and liver function of a passerine, the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata), for two generations. We experimentally treated all nest material with a 1% permethrin solution or a water control and provided the material to breeding finches for nest building. The success of two consecutive clutches produced by the parental generation and one clutch produced by first-generation birds were tracked. Finches in the first generation were able to reproduce and fledge offspring after permethrin exposure, ruling out infertility. Permethrin treatment had no statistically significant effect on the number of eggs laid, number of days from clutch initiation to hatching, egg hatch rate, fledgling mass or nestling sex ratio in either generation. However, treating nest material with permethrin significantly increased the number of hatchlings in the first generation and decreased fledgling success in the second generation. Body mass for hatchlings exposed to permethrin was lower than for control hatchlings in both generations, but only statistically significant for the second generation. For both generations, an interaction between permethrin treatment and age significantly affected nestling growth. Permethrin treatment had no effect on liver function for any generation. Permethrin was detected inside 6 of 21 exposed, non-embryonated eggs (28.5% incidence; range: 693-4781 ng of permethrin per gram of dry egg mass). Overall, results from exposing adults, eggs and nestlings across generations to permethrin-treated nest material suggest negative effects on finch breeding success, but not on liver function. For threatened bird conservation, the judicious application of this insecticide to control parasites in nests can result in lower nestling mortality compared to when no treatment is applied. Thus, permethrin treatment benefits may outweigh its sub-lethal effects.

Abstract
Administration of probiotic Lactobacillus cultures is an important alternative to the use of antibiotic growth promoters and has been demonstrated to improve animal health, growth performance, and preharvest food safety in poultry production. Whereas gastrointestinal colonization is thought to be critical to their probiotic functionality, factors important to Lactobacillus colonization in chickens are not well understood. In this study we investigate epithelial cell adhesion in vitro and colonization of Lactobacillusin vivo in broiler chickens. Adhesion of Lactobacillus cultures to epithelial cells was evaluated using the chicken LMH cell line. Lactobacillus cultures were able adhere effectively to LMH cells relative to Bacillus subtilis and Salmonella Typhimurium. Epithelial cell adhesion was similar for Lactobacillus crispatus TDCC 75, L. cristpatus TDCC 76, and Lactobacillus gallinarum TDCC 77, and all 3 were more adherent than L. gallinarum TDCC 78. However, when colonization was evaluated in the ileum and cecum of broiler chicks, L. crispatus TDCC 75 and L. gallinarum TDCC 77 were more persistent than L. crispatus TDCC 76 and L. gallinarum TDCC 78. The reduction of growth in medium supplemented with oxgal was greater for L. gallinarum TDCC 78 than L. gallinarum TDCC 77, suggesting that whereas adhesion was similar for the 2 strains, the difference in colonization between L. gallinarum strains may be due in part to their bile sensitivity. This study demonstrates that whereas adhesion to epithelial cells may be important in predicting gastrointestinal colonization, other factors including bile tolerance may also contribute to the colonization of Lactobacillus in poultry. Additionally, the chicken LMH cell line is expected to provide a platform for investigating mechanisms of Lactobacillus adhesion to epithelial tissue and evaluating the probiotic potential Lactobacillus in poultry.

Abstract
Three experiments were conducted to determine the effect of taurine on the intestinal development, bile acid concentrations, and hormonal status of chickens. In experiment 1, a total of 250 one-day-old broilers were randomly allocated to 5 treatments and supplemented with 0, 0.25, 0.50, 1.00, and 2.00 g/kg of taurine, respectively. Growth performance, weight and length of the small intestine, and intestinal morphology were measured on d 7, 22, and 44. The gene expression levels of several hormones, including epidermal growth factor and cholecystokinin, were also evaluated. In experiment 2, 60 one-day-old broilers were supplemented with 0, 1.0, and 5.0 g/kg of taurine to assess cell proliferation in the jenunal crypt. In experiment 3, 100 newly hatched broilers were assigned randomly to 5 treatments (0, 0.10, 0.50, 2.00, 8.00 g/kg of taurine) to evaluate the bile acid concentrations in the jejunal mucosa. Our results indicated that dietary taurine decreased the length and weight of small intestine, the villus width, surface area, and crypt depth in the duodenum and jejunum (P < 0.05). Taurine also increased the expression of cholecystokinin and epidermal growth factor on the jejunal mucosa (P < 0.001). Taurine has little effect on stimulating the proliferation of intestinal crypt cells, except for 5 g/kg of taurine supplementation on d 14 (P < 0.05). Additionally, a linear increase in the jejunal concentrations of taurocholic acid, taurochenodeoxycholic acid, and taurolithocholic acid was observed on d 7 in broilers fed increasing levels of taurine. In conclusion, we suggested that taurine impairs intestinal mucosal development partly through generation of toxic bile acids.

Abstract
Campylobacter jejuni is the most common bacterium that causes diarrhea worldwide, and chickens are considered the main reservoir of this pathogen. This study investigated the effects of serial truncation of lipooligosaccharide (LOS), a major component of the outer membrane of C. jejuni, on its bile resistance and intestinal colonization ability in chickens. Genes encoding manno-heptose synthetases or glycosyltransferases were inactivated to generate isogenic mutants. Serial truncation of the LOS core oligosaccharide caused a stepwise increase in susceptibilities of two C. jejuni strains, NCTC 11168 and 81-176, to bile acids. Inactivation of hldE, hldD, or waaC caused severe truncation of the core oligosaccharide, which greatly increased the susceptibility to bile acids. Both wild-type strains grew normally in chicken intestinal extracts, whereas the mutants with severe oligosaccharide truncation were not detected 12 h after inoculation. These mutants attained viable bacterial counts in the bile acid-free extracts 24 h after inoculation. The wild-type strain 11-164 was present in the cecal contents at >10(7) CFU/g on 5 days after challenge infection and after this time period, whereas its hldD mutant was present at <10(3) CFU/g throughout the experimental period. Trans-complementation of the hldD mutant with the wild-type hldD allele completely restored the in vivo colonization level to that of the wild-type strain. Mutants with a shorter LOS had higher hydrophobicities. Thus, the length of the LOS core oligosaccharide affected the surface hydrophobicity and bile resistance of C. jejuni as well as its ability to colonize chicken intestines.

Abstract
The influence of intestinal microbial bile salt deconjugation on absorption of fatty acids and alpha- and gamma-tocopherol was investigated in a trial with Ross 208 broilers. Birds (n = 1600) were assigned to 4 dietary treatments: no supplementation or supplementation of antibiotics (salinomycin, 40 mg/kg feed and avilamycin, 10 mg/kg feed), and inclusion of either animal fat (10 g/100 g feed) or soybean oil (10 g/100 g feed) in the diet. At d 7, 14, 21, and 35 of age, the intestinal number of the bile salt hydrolase-active bacteria Clostridium perfringens, the concentration of conjugated and unconjugated bile salts, the ileal absorption of fatty acids and tocopherols, and the blood plasma concentrations of tocopherols were measured. All variables were significantly influenced by bird age. C. perfringens counts were lower and bile salt concentrations were greater in birds fed soybean oil. The supplementation of antibiotics reduced the numbers of C. perfringens in the small intestine and reduced the concentration of unconjugated bile salts. The ileal absorption of fatty acids and alpha-tocopherol, as well as the plasma concentration of alpha-tocopherol, was greater in birds fed antibiotics. The absorption and plasma concentration of gamma-tocopherol were not influenced by antibiotics. Unlike gamma-tocopherol, which is present solely as the free alcohol, the major proportion of dietary alpha-tocopherol is present as alpha-tocopheryl acetate, which requires a bile salt-dependent enzymatic hydrolysis before absorption. In conclusion, proper digestion of lipid-soluble compounds is highly dependent on an adequate concentration of bile salts in the small intestine to provide proper lipid emulsification and activation of lipolytic enzymes.

Abstract
CmeABC functions as a multidrug efflux pump contributing to the resistance of Campylobacter to a broad range of antimicrobials. In this study, we examined the role of CmeABC in bile resistance and its contribution to the adaptation of Campylobacter jejuni in the intestinal tract of the chicken, a natural host and a major reservoir for Campylobacter. Inactivation of cmeABC drastically decreased the resistance of Campylobacter to various bile salts. Addition of choleate (2 mM) in culture medium impaired the in vitro growth of the cmeABC mutants but had no effect on the growth of the wild-type strain. Bile concentration varied in the duodenum, jejunum, and cecum of chicken intestine, and the inhibitory effect of the intestinal extracts on the in vitro growth of Campylobacter was well correlated with the total bile concentration in the individual sections of chicken intestine. When inoculated into chickens, the wild-type strain colonized the birds as early as day 2 postinoculation with a density as high as 10(7) CFU/g of feces. In contrast, the cmeABC mutants failed to colonize any of the inoculated chickens throughout the study. The minimum infective dose for the cmeABC mutant was at least 2.6 x 10(4)-fold higher than that of the wild-type strain. Complementation of the cmeABC mutants with a wild-type cmeABC allele in trans fully restored the in vitro growth in bile-containing media and the in vivo colonization to the levels of the wild-type strain. Immunoblotting analysis indicated that CmeABC is expressed and immunogenic in chickens experimentally infected with C. jejuni. Together, these findings provide compelling evidence that CmeABC, by mediating resistance to bile salts in the intestinal tract, is required for successful colonization of C. jejuni in chickens. Inhibition of CmeABC function may not only control antibiotic resistance but also prevent the in vivo colonization of pathogenic Campylobacter.

Abstract
The experiment was conducted to determine the apparent metabolizable energy and apparent fatty acid digestibility of tallow and soybean oil (8% of the basal diet) in young (1 and 3 wk of age) turkeys compared with young chickens. At 1 wk of age, turkeys used fats, particularly saturated fats, more efficiently than young chickens (i.e., total fatty acid digestibility was 96.5 vs. 86.4% for soybean oil and 75.0 vs. 49.1% for tallow). This difference between the two species disappeared at 3 wk of age, when there was an increase (95.7 vs. 99.3% for soybean oil and 64.0 vs. 69.7% for tallow) in fat utilization in young chickens, whereas in turkeys it remained constant (96.5 vs. 99.3% for soybean oil and 75 vs. 69.3% for tallow). This result suggests a greater and earlier maturity of the digestive system for fat utilization in turkeys than in young chickens. This efficient utilization of saturated fatty acids in turkeys seemed to depend more on the fat origin than on bird age, because it remained constant with age (91.4 vs. 96%) when saturated fatty acids were provided by soybean oil, and decreased (particularly for C18:0: 5.08 vs. 35.8%) when saturated fatty acids were provided by tallow. In turkeys, fluctuations in secretion of bile salts or in lipase activity during the trial period may have caused the lower stearic acid digestibility at 3 wk of age. The present study revealed a difference in fat utilization between turkeys and young chickens. For higher validity of the digestibility of fats, it would be preferable to use turkeys to derive metabolizable energy and fatty acid digestibility of fat values in formulating turkey diets.

Abstract
In vitro experiments were conducted to characterize the activity and the stability of lipase from animal (crude porcine, CPL; lyophilized porcine, LPL), fungal (Rhizopus arrhizus, RAL; Aspergillus niger, ANL), and bacterial (two Pseudomonas spp., PL1, PL2; and Chromobacterium viscosum, CVL) sources when exposed to conditions associated with the glandular stomach. Activity was measured at pH 3 to 8, 40 C and then monitored in response to temperature (40 C), time of exposure (0 and 30 min), pH (3 and 7), and pepsin level (5, 50, and 500 U/mL). All lipases except ANL and CVL had maximum activity at pH 7 to 8. The optimal pH for ANL and CVL were 5 and 6 to 8, respectively. Exposure of lipases to 40 C and pH 7 for 30 min reduced the activity of all lipases except ANL. In contrast, 40 C increased ANL activity 2.5-fold. Although activity of all lipases was reduced by exposure to pH 3, it was nearly eliminated for CPL and LPL. Pepsin concentration had only minor effects on lipase activity and then only at high concentration. The results demonstrate that bacterial lipases (PL1, PL2, and CVL) and ANL are more stable under conditions that approximate the glandular stomach and may explain why dietary porcine lipase has been ineffective in preventing fat malabsorption in previous in vivo studies.

Abstract
Previously an experimental infection model was developed in which broiler chickens were inoculated with sporulated Eimeria acervulina oocysts at an age of 18 d. The infection resulted in adverse performance results and reduced nutrient digestion. In two new experiments with the infection model effects of diet adjustments on fat digestion were investigated. In the first experiment addition of 0.4 g cholic acid/kg to a diet rich in animal fat resulted in increased fat digestion during the infection. In the second experiment replacing animal fat by coconut oil resulted in improved fat digestion during the coccidiosis infection. However, replacement of animal fat by soybean oil did not improve fat digestion.

Abstract
The everted, ileal ring technique of Little and Lester was utilized to study taurocholate accumulation against a concentration gradient in the terminal ileal mucosal cells of chicks from hatch to 6 wk of age. The chicks had low levels of taurocholate accumulation at hatch. A three- to fourfold increase in accumulation was observed at Day 3 posthatch, but taurocholate returned to baseline levels within 2 days. This peak has not been previously reported in any other species. The age-related peak in the ileal accumulation of taurocholate was not influenced by removal of the yolk sac at hatch, oral feeding of yolk, or supplementation of the diet with taurocholate or cholestyramine. Comparison of ileal uptake of proline versus uptake of taurocholate during the 1st wk posthatch indicated that the peak in ileal taurocholate accumulation is not the result of a general increase in absorptive capacity through cell proliferation. These data suggest that the age-related changes in taurocholate absorption are genetically determined and are not responsive to external influences.

Abstract
A bile acid analogue, SEHCAT (tauro-23-75SE-selena-homocholic acid), was used to determine bile acid pool size, turnover time, and distribution in the developing broiler chick. Bile acid pool size was significantly affected by age and followed a quintic trend (a fifth degree polynomial). It remained steady until 30 days of age when it decreased significantly and then rose significantly at 37 days of age. The bile acid pool half-life remained constant until 28 days of age when it increased significantly and then held steady until it increased again at 8 wk of age following a quartic trend. The distribution of bile acids was affected by age with the amount in the gizzard, duodenum, cloaca, liver, and gall bladder varying significantly with age. Jejunal, ileal, and cecal bile acids did not vary significantly with age. Liver bile acid levels followed a quintic trend, rising until 23 days of age and dropping sharply at 30 days of age and holding steady.
