Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro antioxidant activity of zinc ascorbate (AsA-Zn), its effects on the growth performance of and liver function in Magang geese under heat stress, and its potential mechanism. At AsA-Zn concentrations of 7.5, 15, 30, and 60 µmol/L, the 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS·+) radical scavenging rate increased significantly by 120.85%, 53.43%, 36.12%, and 0.99%, respectively, compared with that of ascorbic acid (AsA), indicating that AsA-Zn had better antioxidant performance in vitro. In this study, Magang geese were divided into a control group (basal diet, CON) and experimental groups, who received the basal diet supplemented with 400 mg/kg AsA or 30 (AsA-Zn30), 60 (AsA-Zn60), or 90 (AsA-Zn90) mg/kg AsA-Zn. AsA-Zn supplementation considerably reduced the feed-to-gain ratio, whereas both AsA and AsA-Zn significantly increased the thymus index. Moreover, AsA-Zn supplementation improved serum protein levels, lipid metabolism, liver function, and antioxidant capacity while reducing hepatocyte vacuolar degeneration. Furthermore, supplementation with AsA-Zn60 significantly increased the total antioxidant capacity, glutathione peroxidase activity, and superoxide dismutase activity and decreased the malondialdehyde content in the serum, liver, and hepatic mitochondria (P < 0.05), with more pronounced effects in the AsA-Zn60 group. Moreover, supplementation with ASA-Zn regulated the Nrf 2 signaling pathway and significantly increased the expression of genes encoding antioxidant-related factors in the liver. In conclusion, AsA-Zn has good antioxidant activity, and AsA-Zn supplementation may improve the antioxidant capacity of heat-stressed geese and promote their growth. Supplementation with 30 mg/kg AsA-Zn is recommended.

Proteome and Peptidome Changes and Zn Concentration in Chicken after In Ovo Stimulation with a Multi-Strain Probiotic and Zn-Gly Chelate: Preliminary Research. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:1259-1280. [PMID: 38392198 PMCID: PMC10888147 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46020080] [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: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of the study was to determine differences in the proteome and peptidome and zinc concentrations in the serum and tissues of chickens supplemented with a multi-strain probiotic and/or zinc glycine chelate in ovo. A total of 1400 fertilized broiler eggs (Ross × Ross 708) were divided into four groups: a control and experimental groups injected with a multi-strain probiotic, with zinc glycine chelate, and with the multi-strain probiotic and zinc glycine chelate. The proteome and peptidome were analyzed using SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF MS, and the zinc concentration was determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. We showed that in ovo supplementation with zinc glycine chelate increased the Zn concentration in the serum and yolk sac at 12 h post-hatch. The results of SDS-PAGE and western blot confirmed the presence of Cu/Zn SOD in the liver and in the small and large intestines at 12 h and at 7 days after hatching in all groups. Analysis of the MALDI-TOF MS spectra of chicken tissues showed in all experimental groups the expression of proteins and peptides that regulate immune response, metabolic processes, growth, development, and reproduction.

Abstract
Heat stress (HS) is still the essential environmental agent influencing the poultry industry. Research on HS in poultry has progressively acquired growing interest because of increased attention to climate alteration. Poultry can survive at certain zone of environmental temperatures, so it could be considered homoeothermic. In poultry, the normal body temperature is essential to enhance the internal environment for growth, which is achieved by normal environmental temperature. Recently, many studies have revealed that HS could cause mitochondrial dysfunction in broilers by inducing redox dysfunction, increasing uncoupling protein, boosting lipid and protein oxidation, and oxidative stress. Moreover, HS diminished the energy suppliers supported by mitochondria activity. A novel strategy for combating the negative influences of HS via boosting the mitochondria function through enrichment of the diets with mitochondria enhancers was also described in this review. Finally, the current review highlights the mitochondria dysfunction induced by HS in broilers and attempts to boost mitochondria functionality by enriching mitochondria enhancers to broiler diets.

Effect of In Ovo Administration of a Multi-Strain Probiotic and Zinc Glycine Chelate on Antioxidant Capacity and Selected Immune Parameters in Newly Hatched Chicks. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1905. [PMID: 38001758 PMCID: PMC10669093 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12111905] [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: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of in ovo co-supplementation of chicken embryos with a multi-strain probiotic containing effective microorganisms and zinc glycine chelate on total antioxidant capacity; concentrations of sulfhydryl groups, bityrosine bridges, formylkynurenines, hydroperoxides, proteins, corticosterone, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and heat shock proteins; and the activity of catalase and superoxide dismutase in the serum, yolk sac and tissues of broiler chickens at 12 h and at 7 days after hatching. The results indicate high SOD activity in the small and large intestines of chicks at 12 h post-hatch in the groups receiving the multi-strain probiotic and in the small intestine and yolk sac of birds receiving the multi-strain probiotic and Zn-Gly chelate. High concentrations of TNF-α and IFN-γ in the yolk sac and serum after in ovo administration of Zn-Gly chelate were observed 12 h after hatching. The use of a probiotic and a probiotic with Zn-Gly chelate increased the total antioxidant capacity in the tissues of chickens. It can be concluded that in ovo administration of a multi-strain probiotic and Zn-Gly chelate can maintain the oxidant/antioxidant balance in chickens and increase the defense capacity against oxidative stress.
