Melatonin has been shown to improve lipid metabolism and gut microbiota communities in animals humans; however, it remains know whether melatonin prevents obesity through microbiota. Here, we found that high-fat diet promoted the accumulation intestinal dysbiosis mice, while oral supplementation alleviated reversed dysbiosis, including diversity of microbiota, relative abundances Bacteroides Alistipes, functional profiling microbial communities, such as energy metabolism, carbohydrate...
The aim of this study was to investigate whether supplementation with resveratrol could alleviate intestinal injuries and explore how regulates heat shock protein (HSP)70, HSP90, nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) epidermal growth (EGF) expression in the jejunal mucosa black-boned chickens under circular stress. A total 300 chicks 42-d-old were randomly assigned five treatment groups. positive control kept a normal-temperature (NT, 24 ± 2 °C) chamber fed basal diet. other four groups...

The results revealed that improved average...
Recently, industrial and agricultural by-products, resulting from crops, fruit vegetable processing which can be used in animal diets have become a hot topic the feed industry. This review focuses on agro-industry by-products as feeds, not only for nutritional values, but also their nutricine contribution. In this review, we described chemical composition of some feeds limiting factors feeding.
Zinc is vital for proper functioning of an animal. Two sources zinc are commonly supplemented in animal feed, organic and inorganic zinc, there reports that the former absorbed to a greater extent than latter. We hypothesized supplementary would increase content eggs laying hens be more effective zinc. To test these hypotheses, we examined effect levels supplemental dietary on average daily feed intake (ADFI), egg production, serum antioxidant capacity concentration hens. A total 720 Roman...
With the increase of consumer demand for high-quality animal protein, it becomes imperative to improve meat quality through nutritional strategy. Resveratrol is a plant polyphenol that exists in grapes and grape products, has been considered as potential functional feed additive. Here, we aimed explore optimal dose resveratrol Pekin ducks' diet its effect on improving quality. A total 432 male ducks (1-day-old) were selected randomly allotted 4 treatment groups, with each group containing 6...
Global warming poses significant challenges to aquaculture, as elevated water temperatures adversely affect fish health and survival. This study investigated the effects potential mechanisms of dietary tea polyphenols (TPs) on acute heat stress survival in hybrid crucian carp HCC2. The control (CON) group (HS group, three replicates, each containing 20 fish, n = 60 per group) were fed diets with 0 mg/kg TPs, experimental groups (HSLTP, HSMTP, HSHTP, × 3 replicates) 100, 200, or 400 TPs for...
