MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological; Aggression; Amino Acids / administration & dosage; Amino Acids / pharmacology; Animal Feed / analysis; Animals; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Supplements; Energy Metabolism / drug effects; Hydrocortisone / chemistry; Hydrocortisone / metabolism; Hypothalamus / chemistry; Hypothalamus / metabolism; Male; Malondialdehyde / metabolism; Motor Activity; Saliva / chemistry; Social Behavior; Stress, Physiological / physiology; Swine / physiology; Tryptophan / administration & dosage; Tryptophan / pharmacology
TL;DR: It is indicated that reducing LNAA in the diet can facilitate the effect of L-Trp on the stress response of pigs and enhance the improvement of feed efficiency by L- Trp supplementation. (via Semantic Scholar)

MeSH headings : Aggression / drug effects; Animal Feed / analysis; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Behavior, Animal / drug effects; Blood Urea Nitrogen; Diet / veterinary; Hydrocortisone / chemistry; Hydrocortisone / metabolism; Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid / chemistry; Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid / metabolism; Hypothalamus / chemistry; Hypothalamus / metabolism; Male; Malondialdehyde; Motor Activity / drug effects; Saliva / chemistry; Serotonin / chemistry; Serotonin / metabolism; Swine / growth & development; Tryptophan / administration & dosage; Tryptophan / pharmacology
TL;DR: Overall, supplementation of L-Trp improved growth performance of 6 wk-old nursery pigs under social stress in association with increasing hypothalamic 5-HT production, reducing stress hormone concentrations, decreasing lipid peroxidation, increasing drinking, and reducing sitting and lying.
