The potential of pomegranate peel supplementation in Yellow-feathered broilers: effects on growth performance, serum biochemistry, antioxidant capacity, intestinal health, intestinal microbiota, and duodenal mucosal metabolites

Poultry Science, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 104(4), P. 104983 - 104983

Published: March 4, 2025

This study aimed to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation with pomegranate peel powder (PP) on growth performance, serum biochemistry, antioxidant capacity, intestinal microbiota, and duodenal mucosal metabolites yellow-feathered broilers. A total 360 broilers were randomly divided into three groups, their diets supplemented different levels PP (0, 1, 4 g/kg) for 42 days. Dietary significantly increased average body weight daily gain during periods 1-21 22-42 days, while reducing feed conversion ratio (p < 0.05). It also decreased aspartate aminotransferase, alanine creatinine, uric acid, activities glutathione peroxidase superoxide dismutase, reduced malondialdehyde content in serum, liver, mucosa Furthermore, promoted mRNA expression farnesoid X receptor, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha, fatty acid-binding protein 4, epidermal factor/epidermal factor B-cell lymphoma 2, decreasing caspase-1 interleukin-1 beta Regarding metabolites, contents polyunsaturated acids (cis-11-eicosenoic cis-13,16-docosadienoic cis-11,14-eicosadienoic acid), prostaglandin E2/G2, secondary bile (apocholic, hyodeoxycholic, 7-ketodeoxycholic, omega-muricholic acids) In terms cecal β-diversity index 0.05), elevated relative abundances Bacteroidota, Alistipes, Bacilli, Actinobacteriota, Clostridia Gammaproteobacteria conclusion, can improve health performance by regulating composition gut microbiota.

Microbiome-metabolomics analysis insight into the effects of dietary chromium picolinate on abdominal fat deposition and lipid metabolism of ducks

Poultry Science, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 105040 - 105040

Published: March 1, 2025

This research endeavored to explore the impact of Cr-Pic on abdominal fat deposition and lipid metabolism ducks, as well uncover mechanisms at play identify optimal dietary supplementation level Cr-Pic. The results showed that adding 0.6 mg/kg observably increased body weight serum levels adiponectin leptin, decreased total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in ducks 14 days (P < 0.05). addition % was discovered regulate meat quality through its effects reducing drip loss, downregulating mRNA expression genes involved synthesis liver, upregulating associated with degradation transport these tissues Untargeted metabolic profiling indicated distinct metabolites between Control groups were predominantly pathways involving amino acids. Microbiome analysis administration altered microbial genera related adjustment cecum such increasing proportion Bacteroides Lactobacillus, decreasing proportions Alistipes, Methanobrevibacter, Romboutsia, Peptostreptococcus In summary, shows promise accumulation by regulating intestinal composition acids are linked metabolism.
