Increased Dietary Trp, Thr, and Met Supplementation Improves Performance, Health, and Protein Metabolism of Weaned Piglets under Mixed Management and Poor Housing Conditions. Animals (Basel) 2024; 14:1143. [PMID: 38672291 PMCID: PMC11047353 DOI: 10.3390/ani14081143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
A sanitary challenge was carried out to induce suboptimal herd health while investigating the effect of amino acids supplementation on piglet responses. Weaned piglets of high sanitary status (6.33 ± 0.91 kg of BW) were distributed in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement into two similar facilities with contrasting sanitary conditions and two different diets. Our results suggest that increased Trp, Thr, and Met dietary supplementation could support the immune systems of piglets under a sanitary challenge. In this manner, AA+ supplementation improved the performance and metabolism of piglets under mixed management and poor sanitary conditions. No major temporal microbiome changes were associated with differences in performance regardless of sanitary conditions or diets. Since piglets often become mixed in multiple-site production systems and facility hygiene is also often neglected, this study suggests that increased Trp, Thr, and Met (AA+) dietary supplementation could contribute to mitigating the side effects of these harmful risk factors in modern pig farms.

Effect of diet supplemented with functional amino acids and polyphenols on gut health in broilers subjected to a corticosterone-induced stress. Sci Rep 2024; 14:1032.

Abstract
To address the overuse of antimicrobials in poultry production, new functional feed ingredients, i.e. ingredients with benefits beyond meeting basic nutritional requirements, can play a crucial role thanks to their prophylactic effects. This study evaluated the effects of the supplementation of arginine, threonine and glutamine together with grape polyphenols on the gut integrity and functionality of broilers facing a stress condition. 108 straight-run newly hatched Ross PM3 chicks were kept until 35 days and were allocated to 3 treatments. Broilers in the control group were raised in standard conditions. In experimental groups, birds were administered with corticosterone in drinking water (CORT groups) to impair the global health of the animal and were fed a well-balanced diet supplemented or not with a mix of functional amino acids together with grape extracts (1 g/kg of diet-CORT + MIX group). Gut permeability was significantly increased by corticosterone in non-supplemented birds. This corticosterone-induced stress effect was alleviated in the CORT + MIX group. MIX supplementation attenuated the reduction of crypt depth induced by corticosterone. Mucin 2 and TNF-α gene expression was up-regulated in the CORT + MIX group compared to the CORT group. Caecal microbiota remained similar between the groups. These findings indicate that a balanced diet supplemented with functional AA and polyphenols can help to restore broiler intestinal barrier after a stress exposure.
