Book Synopsis Role of Propionate and Uncouplers of Oxidative Phosphorylation on Hepatic Metabolism and Feeding Behavior in Dairy Cows by : Katherine Marie Kennedy
Download or read book Role of Propionate and Uncouplers of Oxidative Phosphorylation on Hepatic Metabolism and Feeding Behavior in Dairy Cows written by Katherine Marie Kennedy and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The negative energy balance of dairy cows in the postpartum period is exacerbated by a suppression in appetite. Metabolic diseases resulting from negative energy balance can decrease milk production, health and fertility, increasing risk of culling. Research suggests that feeding behavior is linked to the oxidation of fuels in the liver and that an increase in oxidation of fuels causes satiety. Propionate derived from the fermentation of starch in the rumen is a major glucose precursor in dairy cows but can also cause hypophagia. Because propionate is anaplerotic, it stimulates the oxidation of fuels in the liver, likely causing the hypophagic effects. In order to determine the role of anaplerotic metabolites and uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation on hepatic metabolism and feeding behavior in dairy cows, 6 studies were conducted. First, using 8 dairy cows in a duplicated 4x4 Latin square design, the effect of feed status (before or after access to feed) on the hepatic extraction and metabolism of propionate over 20 min was determined. The results indicated that hepatic extraction and metabolism of propionate is very rapid, and that metabolite concentrations were greater after compared with before feeding. Additionally, potential bottlenecks of propionate metabolism were identified. Secondly, a study using hepatic explants incubated in [13C3]sodium propionate was conducted to test the effects of 3 different concentrations of propionate (1, 2 or 4 mM) on propionate metabolism over 60 min. An increased concentration of propionate in the range from 1 - 4 mM resulted in the conversion of propionate to acetyl CoA, likely through pyruvate, and that the acetyl CoA was incorporated into the TCA cycle for oxidation. Additionally, metabolism of [13C3]propionate occurred rapidly with significant increases of 13C enrichment detected within 0.5 min for many metabolites. Furthermore, uncoupling the electron transport chain should affect the metabolism of propionate and the feeding behavior of dairy cows as a result of inefficient oxidation of fuels. The effects of two uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation, 2,4-dinitrophenol methyl ether (DNPME) and sodium salicylate (SAL), on feeding behavior in dairy cows were determined in 2 experiments. Treatment with DNPME and SAL decreased eating rate in dairy cows over the first 4 h following access to feed. Additionally, DNPME increased meal length over the first 4 h following access to feed. Lastly, an experiment was conducted to determine the effects of DNPME and SAL on metabolism and oxidation of propionate over 60 min using hepatic explants from 8 dairy cows. Neither DNPME nor SAL increased oxidation. The DNPME treatment did not alter metabolism of propionate except for an increase of propionate converted to succinyl CoA, however, SAL decreased glucose synthesis from propionate. From this research, we conclude that hepatic metabolism of propionate occurs rapidly and is likely having effects on feeding behavior within minutes as well. As such, the importance of short-term metabolism in regard to feeding behavior and dry matter intake should be considered in future research. Understanding the mechanisms for metabolic control of feed intake will lead to development of novel nutritional or pharmacological approaches to increase energy intake, health, and milk yield of dairy cows; thus, improving nutrient utilization and sustainability of the dairy industry.

Book Synopsis Dietary Factors that Induce Milk Fat Depression in Dairy Cows Consuming Dried Distillers Grains with Solubles by : Hugo Alonso Ramirez Ramirez
Download or read book Dietary Factors that Induce Milk Fat Depression in Dairy Cows Consuming Dried Distillers Grains with Solubles written by Hugo Alonso Ramirez Ramirez and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has shown that dairy diets may contain up to 30% corn dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS, interestingly, field experiences commonly report that milk fat depression (MFD), a disorder characterized by a sharp reduction in milk fat concentration and yield without affecting other productive traits, when feeding DDGS. The research described herein focused on the effects of feeding DDGS on MFD in dairy cows. Experiment 1 evaluated the effects of feeding high levels of corn oil and starch in diets containing 20% DDGS. The inclusion of corn oil or starch did not affect milk production but resulted in MFD; the combination of these two factors had additive negative effects that exacerbated the MFD response. Ruminal pH was similar across treatments. The results showed a shift in the ratio of acetate to propionate and suggest altered metabolism of unsaturated fatty acids that resulted in diet-induced MFD. Experiment 2 evaluated the effects of feeding reduced-fat DDGS (RFDDGS) as an alternative to lessen the risk of MFD and determine its effects on bacterial community structure. Milk yield was not affected by treatment. Feeding a control diet and RFDDG and resulted in greater concentration and yield of fat compared with DDGS. Proportions of Firmicutes decreased 9 h postfeeding and increased to the initial level by 23 h, conversely Bacteroidetes increased 9 h postfeeding. These results indicate that diurnal variation in bacterial community composition as well as diet-induced structural changes may affect animal performance. Experiment 3 examined the effects of feeding short and long particles of grass hay in combination with corn oil on milk production and composition. The smaller particle size reduced rumination time and increased ruminal rate of passage. There were no effects on dry matter intake and milk production. Milk composition was negatively affected in cows consuming fine particles in combination with corn oil as they exhibited MFD; this response was partially reversed by long particles. These results underscore the importance of providing dairy cows with adequate physically effective fiber in diets formulated to contain high levels of oil.
Book Synopsis Metabolic Modifiers by : National Research Council
Download or read book Metabolic Modifiers written by National Research Council and published by National Academies. This book was released on 1994-02-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, animal scientists have learned that administering recombinantly derived somatotropin (growth hormone) to cows improves milk production and that giving beta-adrenergic agonists to meat animals improves productivity and leanness. In order for these metabolic modifiers to yield benefits, however, sound management of the animals' nutrition is necessary. This volume reports on how these substances work in the animals' metabolism, what effects they might have on nutrient requirements of domestic livestock, and what information should be developed further by investigators. The book explores the current understanding of the biology, structure, mechanisms of action, and treatment effects of somatotropin, beta-adrenergic agonists, and anabolic steroids. A companion volume to the Nutrient Requirements of Domestic Animals series, this authoritative volume will be required reading for animal scientists, researchers, veterinarians, livestock farmers, and faculty and students in university animal veterinary science programs.

Book Synopsis INRA feeding system for ruminants by : INRA
Download or read book INRA feeding system for ruminants written by INRA and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The INRA Feeding System for Ruminants has been renewed to better address emerging challenges for animal nutrition: prevision of productive responses, product quality, animal health and emissions to the environment, in a larger extent of breeding contexts. The new system is mainly built from meta-analyses of large data bases, and modelling. The dietary supply model accounts for digestive interactions and flows of individual nutrients, so that feed values depend on the final ration. Animal requirements account for variability in metabolic efficiency. Various productive and non-productive animal responses to diets are quantified. This book presents the whole system for dairy and meat, large and small ruminant production, including specificities for tropical and Mediterranean areas. The first two sections present biological concepts and equations (with their field of application and statistical accuracy) used to predict intake (including at grazing) and nutrient supply (Section 1), animal’s requirements and multiple responses to diets (Section 2). They apply to net energy, metabolisable protein and amino acids, water, minerals and vitamins. Section 3 presents the use of concepts and equations in rationing with two purposes: (1) diet calculation for a given performance objective; and (2) prediction of the multiple responses of animal to diet changes. Section 4 displays the tables of feed values, and their prevision. All the equations and concepts are embedded in the fifth version of INRAtion® software for practical use.
