The role of vitamin E in polyunsaturated fatty acid synthesis and alleviating endoplasmic reticulum stress in sub-adult grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella). ANIMAL NUTRITION (ZHONGGUO XU MU SHOU YI XUE HUI) 2024; 16:275-287. [PMID: 38371478 PMCID: PMC10869583 DOI: 10.1016/j.aninu.2023.09.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
Vitamin E (VE) is an essential lipid-soluble vitamin that improves the fish flesh quality. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of VE on growth performance and flesh quality in sub-adult grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). A total of 450 fish (713.53 ± 1.50 g) were randomly divided into six treatment groups (three replicates per treatment) and fed for nine weeks with different experimental diets (dietary lipid 47.8 g/kg) that contained different levels of VE (5.44, 52.07, 96.85, 141.71, 185.66, and 230.12 mg/kg diet, supplemented as dl-α-tocopherol acetate). Notably, the treatment groups that were fed with dietary VE ranging from 52.07 to 230.12 mg/kg diet showed improvement in the percent weight gain, special growth rate, and feed efficiency of grass carp. Moreover, the treatment groups supplemented with dietary VE level of 141.71, 185.66, and 230.12 mg/kg diet showed enhancement in crude protein, lipid, and α-tocopherol contents in the muscle, and the dietary levels of VE ranging from 52.07 to 141.71 mg/kg diet improved muscle pH24h and shear force but reduced muscle cooking loss in grass carp. Furthermore, appropriate levels of VE (52.07 to 96.85 mg/kg diet) increased the muscle polyunsaturated fatty acid content in grass carp. Dietary VE also increased the mRNA levels of fatty acid synthesis-related genes, including fas, scd-1, fad, elovl, srebp1, pparγ, and lxrα, and up-regulated the expression of SREBP-1 protein. However, dietary VE decreased the expression of fatty acid decomposition-related genes, including hsl, cpt1, acox1, and pparα, and endoplasmic reticulum stress-related genes, including perk, ire1, atf6, eif2α, atf4, xbp1, chop, and grp78, and down-regulated the expression of p-PERK, p-IRE1, ATF6, and GRP78 proteins. In conclusion, dietary VE increased muscle fatty acid synthesis, which may be partly associated with the alleviation of endoplasmic reticulum stress, and ultimately improves fish flesh quality. Moreover, the VE requirements for sub-adult grass carp (713.53 to 1590.40 g) were estimated to be 124.9 and 122.73 mg/kg diet based on percentage weight gain and muscle shear force, respectively.

Effect of fed dietary yeast (Rhodotorula paludigena CM33) on shrimp growth, gene expression, intestinal microbial, disease resistance, and meat composition of Litopenaeus vannamei. DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 147:104896. [PMID: 37473826 DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2023.104896] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
Yeast is a health-promoting and bio-therapeutic probiotic that is commonly used in aquaculture. Rhodotorula paludigena CM33 can accumulate amounts of intracellular carotenoids and lipid, which are regarded as nutritionally beneficial compounds in various aspects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of different levels of R. paludigena CM33 (RD) incorporated in a dietary composition at 0% (control), 1% (1% RD), 2% (2% RD), and 5% (5% RD) on the growth of shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), their immune-related gene expression, intestinal health, resistance to Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VPAHPND) infection, and meat composition. The results showed significant improvements in the specific growth rate, weight gain, and survival of shrimp fed with 1% RD, 2% RD, and 5% RD, which were higher than the control group after 4 weeks of administration. The administration of 5% RD group resulted in a decrease in cumulative mortality upon VPAHPND challenge when compared to the control group. Furthermore, the expression levels of immune-responsive genes, including proPO system (prophenoloxidase-2: PO2), antioxidant enzyme (superoxide dismutase: SOD, glutathione peroxidase: GPX, and catalase: CAT), JAK/STAT pathway (signal transducer and activator of transcription: STAT, gamma interferon inducible lysosomal thiol reductase: GILT), IMD pathway (inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa-B kinase subunit beta and epsilon: IKKb and IKKe), and Toll pathway (Lysozyme) genes, were up-regulated in the 5% RD group. In the context of microbiota, microbiome analysis revealed that the main phyla in shrimp intestines were Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, Campilobacterota, Actinobacteriota, and Verrucomicrobiota. At the genus level, Vibrio was found to be reduced in the 5% RD group, whereas the abundance of potentially beneficial bacteria Bifidobacterium was increased. The 5% RD group showed a significant increase in the levels of crude protein and crude lipid, both of which are essential nutritious components. Our results show the capability of R. paludigena CM33 as a probiotic supplement in shrimp feed in improving growth, antimicrobial responses against VPAHPND, and meat quality by increasing protein and lipid content in shrimp.

Vitamin E Ameliorates Impaired Ovarian Development, Oxidative Stress, and Disrupted Lipid Metabolism in Oreochromis niloticus Fed with a Diet Containing Olive Oil Instead of Fish Oil. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1524. [PMID: 37627518 PMCID: PMC10451663 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12081524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Aquaculture feed containing olive oil (OO) instead of fish oil (FO) can cause oxidative stress and impair gonad development in fish. We determined the effect of dietary OO-induced oxidative stress on ovarian development, and explored whether vitamin E (VE) could mitigate negative effects. Female Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were fed for 10 weeks with four diets: 5% OO + 70 mg/kg VE, 5% OO + 200 mg/kg VE, 5% FO + 70 mg/kg VE, or 5% FO + 200 mg/kg VE. Dietary OO reduced the specific growth rate and gonadosomatic index, inhibited superoxide dismutase and catalase, delayed ovarian development, decreased serum sex hormone levels, and reduced ovarian triglyceride and n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acid contents. The transcript levels of genes encoding sex hormone receptors (erα, fshr, lhr) and components of the lipid metabolism pathway (pparα, pparγ, hsl, accα, elovl6), the nrf2 signaling pathway (nrf2, keap1), and the nf-κb signaling pathway (nf-κb, tnfα, infγ, il1β) differed between the 70VE/OO and 70VE/FO groups. Supplementation with 200 mg/kg VE mitigated the adverse effects of OO by improving antioxidant capacity and alleviating inflammation and abnormal lipid metabolism. This may be because VE is an antioxidant and it can regulate the nrf2-nf-κb signaling pathway.

Effect of dietary antioxidant supplements (selenium forms, alpha-tocopherol, and coenzyme Q10) on growth performance, immunity, and physiological responses in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) using orthogonal array design. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 134:108615.

Abstract
Dietary supplements containing antioxidants play an important role in reducing the risk of peroxidative attack in aquatic animals. In this work, an orthogonal array design (L9: 34) was used to evaluate the effect of four dietary antioxidant supplements on the physiological responses of rainbow trout at three levels. The supplements included different (A) selenium (Se) forms (inorganic, organic, and nanoparticle), (B) Se content (0, 0.3, & 0.5 mg/kg feed), (C) vitamin E (VE) content (0, 100, & 150 mg/kg feed), and (D) coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) content (0, 10, & 20 mg/kg feed). Fish with an average body weight of 8.35 ± 0.33 g were randomly allocated to different experimental groups. According to the results, the antioxidant supplements included in the diet had no significant effects on the growth performance of fish (P > 0.05). Immunological and antioxidant parameters were mainly improved by the Se form (Nano-Se) and dietary CoQ10 supplementation. In addition, Se form and VE were more effective in digestive enzyme activities and hematology indices in comparison to other dietary antioxidants. Additionally, diets supplemented with nano-Se along with CoQ10 and VE improved fish resistance/stamina against stress. In conclusion, a more effective combination of the four antioxidant supplements was A2/3B2/3C3D3 (i.e., 0.5 mg/kg organic/nano-Se, 150 mg/kg VE, and 20 mg/kg CoQ10), which could mainly improve the physiological responses of rainbow trout.

Abstract
Vitamin E (VE), an important lipid-soluble antioxidant, has great influence on growth and maintenance in animal. The effects of VE supplemented diet on growth and feed usage in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was investigated in this study. Three formulated diets containing VE (0, 50 and 100 mg/kg) were fed to Nile tilapia (3.56 ± 0.16 g) in glass aquaria maintaining three replicate groups for 56 days (8 weeks). Survival, growth performance including weight gain, percent weight gain, and specific growth rate (WG, % WG, and SGR), and feed utilization comprising protein efficiency ratio and feed conversion ratio (PER and FCR) were calculated. Hemato-biochemical indices including hemoglobin level (Hb), white blood cell (WBC), red blood cell (RBC) and glucose level were analyzed. In addition, muscle morphology was examined after completion of the experiment. At the end of the trial, WG, %WG, SGR, FCR and PER increased significantly which had dietary VE supplimentation. However, no distinct changes were observed in Hb level, RBC count, WBC count and glucose level among these different dietary groups. Dietary VE treatments significantly upgraded the muscle fiber diameter and lowered the intra-muscle gap. Moreover, quantity of hyperplastic muscle fiber as well as nucleus also significantly enhanced by VE. Morphological structure of muscle characterized by a huge proportion of hyperplastic muscle that may be supposed to contribute the enhanced growth of Nile tilapia receiving VE supplemented diet. Therefore these results suggested that VE incorporation into the feed can be effective to improve the feed efficiency and maximize the growth of O. niloticus.

Abstract
Resveratrol (RES) has been found to have immunological enhancement effects on Oreochromis niloticus. In O. nilocticus, the liver, spleen and kidney act as immune target tissues, while intestine works for nutrition sensing organ. In the present study, we determined RES administration on these immune tissues transcriptomic response in genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT), and further analyzed the relationship between transcriptomic response and intestinal microbiota. As results, hepatic hemosiderin and intestinal goblet cells significantly increased with RES addition. Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathways associated with herpes simplex virus 1 infection, calcium signaling pathway, cell adhesion molecules, apoptosis, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors (PPAR) signaling pathways were enriched. In particular, the differentially enriched genes (DEGs) associated pathways were present in different sampling tissues, times, and comparisons, interestingly, the PPAR signaling pathway was enriched with increasing time of RES addition. The assembled DEGs presented verified expression in the kidney, liver, spleen, and intestine tissues, and fabp6 was highly expressed in the intestine. Serial DEGs of fatty acid-binding proteins (fabp7, fabp7a, fabp10a) decreased in the liver and kidney, and fabp6 significantly increased in the spleen. With time, the pathways of energy metabolism, glycan biosynthesis, and metabolism decreased and increased in the intestinal metagenome. Some Candidatus branches significantly increased (C. cerribacteria and C. harrisonbacteria) and while others decreased (C. glodbacteria, etc.), whereas C. verstraetearchaeota fluctuated with RES addition. slc27a6 and dbi were negatively correlated with bacteria involved in the lipid, energy, and carbohydrate metabolism pathways. The present study suggests that RES supplementation affected lipid metabolism in immune-related organs may be related to the PPAR signaling pathway.

Abstract
PAP (3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate) is a ubiquitous phosphoric acid and a natural inhibitor of the XRN (5'-3'exoribonuclease) family. It was proved to enter the nucleus through the retrograde signaling pathway and inhibit XRN2 to prevent the degradation of miRNA precursors, thus promoting the anti-oxidation miRNA level in Arabidopsis thaliana. Vitamin E (tocopherol) was proved to promote the accumulation of PAP in the plant, which facilitates PAP into the nucleus to accomplish its antioxidant function. However, the relationship between VE and PAP in animals is unclear. To identify the relationship between VE and PAP and to uncover the function of PAP in fish, we investigated the performance of VE and PAP in Nile tilapia by comparing the antioxidant indicators (SOD, GSH-Px, and CAT), the Keap1-Nrf2 signaling pathway, and the miRNA expression profiles. Results showed that the antioxidant effect of VE and PAP showed similar character either in tilapia liver or in serum: the activities of GSH-Px and CAT of both groups were significantly increased (P < 0.05); the SOD activity of the VE group was significantly increased (P < 0.05), and although the result of the PAP group was not so significant (P > 0.05), PAP improved the SOD level, too. The two groups also showed similar character in the tilapia liver; both did not significantly increase the liver δ-VE content (P > 0.05). However, VE significantly increased the content of α-VE and γ-VE (P < 0.05), while the PAP group was insignificant (P > 0.05). Feed with VE and intraperitoneal injection of PAPs reagent both increased the PAP content in the liver of tilapia, and the effect of the VE group was more significant (P < 0.05) than that of the PAP group (P > 0.05). Both groups reduced the expression of Keap1 and Cullin3 genes and improved the level of HO-1 gene expression, with the improved miRNA level of Nrf2. As a logical result, they decreased the expression of XRN1 and XRN2. By profile sequencing, we further identified some antioxidant closely related miRNAs shared in the VE and PAP groups, including miR-30, miR-24, miR-19b, and miR-100. By comparing the regulating mechanism of VE and PAP of feed supply and intraperitoneal injection, we proved that VE and PAP were closely related in fish; VE promoted the gathering of PAP. The latter retrograded into the nucleus of the fish liver to inhibit the expression of XRN genes and to up-regulate antioxidant miRNA levels as it does in plants. Only the PAP can accomplish the antioxidant activities, while VE promotes the process. Our study laid the foundation for the application of PAP as a new antioxidant agent in fish farming and benefit a further understanding of the VE antioxidant function in fish.

Abstract
Overnutrition in high-density aquaculture can negatively affect the health of farmed fish. The Chinese herbal medicine Siberian ginseng (Acanthopanax senticosus, AS) can promote animal growth and immunity, and regulate lipid metabolism. Therefore, we conducted an 8-week experiment, in which Oreochromis niloticus was fed with a diet supplemented with different concentrations of AS water extract (ASW) (0‰, 0.1‰, 0.2‰, 0.4‰, 0.8‰, and 1.6‰). The ASW improved the growth performance and increased the specific growth rate (SGR). Linear regression analysis based on the SGR estimated that the optimal ASW amount was 0.74‰. Dietary supplementation with 0.4–0.8‰ ASW reduced the triglyceride and total cholesterol levels in the serum and liver, and regulated lipid transport by increasing the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration and lowering the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration. Dietary supplementation with ASW increased the activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase in the liver, thereby improving the antioxidant capacity. Moreover, ASW modulated the transcription of genes in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathway in the liver (upregulation of PPARα, APOA1b, and FABP10a and downregulation of PPARγ), thereby regulating fatty acid synthesis and metabolism and slowing fat deposition. These results showed that 0.4–0.8‰ ASW can slow fat deposition and protected the liver from cell damage and abnormal lipid metabolism.

Abstract
The study aims to evaluate the effects of pineapples waste on the growth, texture quality and flesh colour of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings. Fingerlings were fed with four different levels of pineapple waste diets throughout 56 days, which contain a control group (Diet 1) and experimental diets that formulated with 10% (Diet 2), 20% (Diet 3) and 30% (Diet 4) of pineapple waste. The experimental diet was formulated with rice bran, fish meal, soybean meal, vitamin and mineral premix, vegetable oil and binder to attain 32% dietary protein. The results revealed that the formulated fish diet with pineapple waste given the optimum weight gain, weight gain percentage, specific growth rate than the control group, where Diet 4 has shown the highest value (p < 0.05). There were no effects of the pineapple waste diet on the texture quality of the fillet, while only red chromaticity (a*) showed a significant difference (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the addition of pineapple waste can improve the growth rate of Nile tilapia, and the supplementation level of the pineapple waste in the diet was 30% of the total feed formulation.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11020228. [PMID: 35204111 PMCID: PMC8868509 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11020228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Revised: 01/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Lipids work as essential energy sources for organisms. However, prawns fed on high-fat diets suffer from oxidative stress, whose potential mechanisms are poorly understood. The present study aimed to explore the regulation mechanism of oxidative stress induced by high fat and the amelioration by vitamin E (VE) of oxidative stress. Macrobrachium rosenbergii were fed with two dietary fat levels (LF 9% and HF 13%) and two VE levels (200 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg) for 8 weeks. The results showed that the HF diet decreased the growth performance, survival rate and antioxidant capacity of M. rosenbergii, as well as inducing hypertrophied lipid droplets, lipophagy and apoptosis. A total of 600 mg/kg of VE in the HF diet alleviated the negative effects induced by HF. In addition, the HF diet suppressed the expression of toll-dorsal and imd-relish signal pathways. After the relish and dorsal pathways were knocked down, the downstream iNOS and NO levels decreased and the MDA level increased. The results indicated that M. rosenbergii fed with a high-fat diet could cause oxidative damage. Its molecular mechanism may be attributed to the fact that high fat suppresses the NF-κB/NO signaling pathway mediating pro-oxidant and antioxidant targets for regulation of oxidative stress. Dietary VE in an HF diet alleviated hepatopancreas oxidative stress and apoptosis.

Abstract
In high-density aquaculture, fish health can suffer because of excessive feeding, which causes fatty liver disease. Siberian ginseng (Acanthopanax senticosus) has been used as a feed additive to promote animal growth, immunity, and lipid metabolism. In this study, we explored the effects of A. senticosus on the physiology of hybrid yellow catfish (Tachysurus fulvidraco ♀ × Pseudobagrus vachellii ♂). A control group and five groups fed diets containing A. senticosus (0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8 g A. senticosus/kg feed) were established and maintained for 8 weeks. Dietary supplementation with A. senticosus at 4 g/kg promoted growth of the hybrid yellow catfish. Serum total cholesterol (TC) and triacylglycerol (TG) levels at 2 g/kg A. senticosus (TC: 1.31 mmol/L; TG: 1.08 mmol/L) were significantly lower than in the control group (TC: 1.51 mmol/L; TG: 1.41 mmol/L), and 4 g/kg A. senticosus (17.20 μmol/g tissue) reduced the liver TG level compared with the control group (21.36 μmol/g tissue) (P <0.05). Comparative transcriptomic analysis of liver tissue between the control group and the group showing optimum growth (4 g/kg A. senticosus) revealed 820 differentially expressed genes and 44 significantly enriched pathways, especially lipid metabolism pathways such as unsaturated fatty acid and fatty acid metabolism. The transcript levels of five lipid metabolism-related genes were determined by quantitative real-time PCR. The results showed that 2–4 g/kg A. senticosus supplementation reduced the FADS2, ELOVL2, CYP24a, and PLPP3 transcript levels and 4 g/kg A. senticosus increased the DIO2 transcript level (P <0.05), leading to altered synthesis of TG and thyroxine and reduced fat deposition in the liver. Our results show that dietary A. senticosus affects the regulation of fat metabolism and promotes the growth of hybrid yellow catfish. A. senticosus is a healthy feed additive, and the appropriate dietary supplementation rate is 2–4 g/kg.

Vitamin E as promising adjunct treatment option in the combat of infectious diseases caused by bacterial including multi-drug resistant pathogens - Results from a comprehensive literature survey. Eur J Microbiol Immunol (Bp) 2020; 10:193-201. [PMID: 33151163 PMCID: PMC7753978 DOI: 10.1556/1886.2020.00020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Accepted: 09/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The use of antibiotics has provoked an emergence of various multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. Infectious diseases that cannot be treated sufficiently with conventional antibiotic intervention strategies anymore constitue serious threats to human health. Therefore, current research focus has shifted to alternative, antibiotic-independent therapeutic approaches. In this context, vitamin E constitutes a promising candidate molecule due to its multi-faceted modes of action. Therefore, we used the PubMed database to perform a comprehensive literature survey reviewing studies addressing the antimicrobial properties of vitamin E against bacterial pathogens including MDR bacteria. The included studies published between 2010 and 2020 revealed that given its potent synergistic antimicrobial effects in combination with distinct antibiotic compounds, vitamin E constitutes a promising adjunct antibiotic treatment option directed against infectious diseases caused by MDR bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Burkholderia cenocepacia and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In conclusion, the therapeutic value of vitamin E for the treatment of bacterial infections should therefore be investigated in future clinical studies.

Effects of dietary supplementation with apple peel powder on the growth, blood and liver parameters, and transcriptome of genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT, Oreochromis niloticus). PLoS One 2019; 14:e0224995.

Abstract
High-density aquaculture and nutritional imbalances may promote fatty liver in genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT, Oreochromis niloticus), thus reducing the gains achieved by breeding. In this study, apple peel powder (APP) was used as a feed additive for GIFT. A control group (fed on a diet without APP) and five groups fed on diets supplemented with APP (at 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.4%, or 0.8% of the diet, by weight) were established to investigate the effects of APP on GIFT growth performance and physiological parameters, and on gene expression as determined by transcriptomic analysis. Dietary supplementation with APP at 0.2% promoted GIFT growth, reduced total cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels in the serum and liver, and decreased alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase activities in the serum. Gene expression profiles in the liver were compared among the control, 0.2% APP, and 0.8% APP groups, and differentially expressed genes among these groups were identified. Annotation analyses using tools at the Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes databases showed that the differentially expressed genes were mainly involved in the regulation of immunity and fat metabolism. The results showed that excessive supplementation with APP in the diet significantly inhibited the expression of insulin-like growth factor 2 and liver-type fatty acid-binding protein, and stimulated the expression of fatty acid desaturase 2, heat shock protein 90 beta family member 1, and nuclear factor kappa B. This resulted in disordered lipid metabolism and increased pro-inflammatory reactions, which in turn caused liver damage. Therefore, APP has good potential as an environmentally friendly feed additive for GIFT at levels of 0.1%–0.2% in the diet, but excessive amounts can have adverse effects.
