Nutritional programming in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus): Effect of low dietary protein on growth and the intestinal microbiome and transcriptome

Deck, C. A., Salger, S. A., Reynolds, H. M., Tada, M. D., Severance, M. E., Ferket, P., … Borski, R. J. (2023, October 4). (D. K. Meena, Ed.). PLoS ONE, Vol. 18.

Ed(s): D. Meena

MeSH headings : Animals; Cichlids; Gastrointestinal Microbiome; Transcriptome; Diet, Protein-Restricted; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Proteins / pharmacology; Animal Feed / analysis; Dietary Supplements
topics (OpenAlex): Aquaculture Nutrition and Growth; Aquaculture disease management and microbiota; Child Nutrition and Water Access
TL;DR: Results suggest protein restriction for up to 14 days early in development leads to enhanced growth and feed efficiency with minimal effects on gut microbes or intestinal function, while Protein restriction beyond this period appears detrimental to fish growth and health as underscores by expression of disease related genes and higher mortality rates.

Deck, C. A., Anderson, W. G., Conlon, J. M., & Walsh, P. J. (2017, April 25). Journal of Comparative Physiology B.

By: C. Deck n, W. Anderson *, J. Conlon * & P. Walsh *

author keywords: Rectal gland; Glucose transporter; Glucagon-like peptide; Elasmobranchs; Dogfish
MeSH headings : Animals; Chlorides / metabolism; Exocrine Glands / metabolism; Glucagon / metabolism; Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 / metabolism; Glucose / metabolism; Insulin / pharmacology; Lactic Acid / metabolism; Male; Rectum; Sodium-Glucose Transporter 1 / genetics; Squalus / metabolism
