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

PLOS ONE, 18(10).

By: C. Deck n, S. Salger n, H. Reynolds n, M. Tada n, M. Severance n, P. Ferket n, H. Egna*, M. Fatema*, S. Haque*, R. Borski n

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.

MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animals; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Fiber / analysis; Dietary Fiber / metabolism; Dietary Supplements; Digestion / drug effects; Gastrointestinal Tract / metabolism; Nutritive Value; Swine / physiology
TL;DR: It is suggested that liquid feeding and xylanase supplementation had limited potential to enhance nutrient digestibility in pigs fed DDGS-based diets, but x Dylanase supplementation in dry wheat middlings- based diets improved the AID of NDF and ATTD of GE and N, but liquid feeding as pretreatment did not further enhance the nutritional value of wheat middlesland diets.

TL;DR: It is concluded that at hatch, poults should have the capacity to digest disaccharides but not oligopeptides, due to increased expression of sucrase-isomaltase but decreased expression of aminopeptidases and absorb monosaccharide and small peptides due to high expression of sodium-glucose cotransporter-4 and peptide transporter-1.

MeSH headings : Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Chick Embryo / drug effects; Chick Embryo / metabolism; Dietary Carbohydrates / pharmacology; Energy Metabolism / drug effects; Valerates / pharmacology
TL;DR: It is reasonable to assume that the elevated glycogen levels in the in ovo treatment reduce the need to produce glucose via gluconeogenesis and, therefore, contribute to less use of muscle protein and hence a greater percentage of pectoral muscle weight in theIn ovo birds.
