Abstract Metabolic syndrome is one of the utmost frequent diseases with the augmentation of the fast oscillations in societies’ lifestyles. On the other side, various medicinal plants have recently been extensively used for plentiful therapeutics. Among these, curcumin and turmeric are the main components derivative from the rhizome of plants, with significant effects on preventing metabolic syndromes. Due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, the biological activities of turmeric and its bioactive element, curcumin, have antidiabetic properties via augmenting insulin release and anti-hyperlipidemia effects via enhancing fatty acids uptake, anti-obesity properties via declining lipogenesis, and antihypertensive properties via augmenting nitric oxide synthesis. Moreover, the dietary presence of turmeric and its bioactive element, curcumin, significantly affected poultry productivity, health and welfare. According to human and animal trials, turmeric or curcumin has important values as dietary supplementation and complementary therapy in some metabolic syndromes. This scenario highpoint on the potential effects of curcumin (turmeric) on poultry health and its role in complementary therapy in metabolic syndrome. Additional high-quality clinical trial investigations are required to establish the clinical efficiency of the curcumin complement confidently.

Abstract Heat stress (HS) is considered a severe concern for rabbit buck’s health, welfare and reproductive features. Thymoquinone (THQ) is a natural molecule with robust antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. Thereafter, three months of feeding research was applied to assess the role of THQ-enriched diets in improving the health, semen attributes and testicular changes of stressed rabbit bucks. Forty rabbit bucks were used in this research, and animals were fed diets containing 0 (THQ0; serve as a heat stress group), 100 (THQ100), 200 (THQ200), and 400 (THQ400) mg/kg of THQ for three months continually during the summer season. Outcomes displayed that THQ significantly enhanced FBW (final body weight), DBWG (daily body weight gain), and FI (feed intake) but did not affect FCR (feed conversion ratio). Compared with the THQ0 group, dietary THQ addition significantly decreased creatinine, TB (total bilirubin), TG (triglycerides), and GGT (gamma-glutamyl transferase) levels. Bucks receiving 200 mg of THQ had higher TAC (total antioxidant capacity) and GSH (glutathione) than other groups. At the same time, MDA was significantly shrunk in THQ-treated groups relative to the THQ group. The levels of interferon-gamma (IFN-ᵞ) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) were significantly diminished (P <0.001), but nitric oxide and lysosome activity were significantly increased in bucks given diets containing THQ (200 and 400 mg/kg) as relative to the TH0 group. Libido score and reaction time were significantly improved by THQ dietary inclusion. Semen attributes, including volume, motility, concentration, and vitality, were significantly augmented in THQ100 and THQ200 groups. Histological screening of testicular tissues showed moderate to severe degenerative and necrotic changes in the testicular tissues of bucks exposed to HS. This was enhanced with the supplementation of THQ at different levels. Collectively, THQ (200 or 400mg /kg diet) can improve health, semen attributes and restore testicular damage in rabbit bucks via boosting antioxidant and reducing inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract The dietary effects of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) leaves powder (RLP) were tested on the performance and welfare of Nile tilapia (Oreochrmis niloticus) fingerlings subjected to lead (Pb) toxicity. Two-hundred fish (31.9±0.28 g) were stocked into 20 85-L glass aquaria (10 fish/aquarium) to represent four treatments with five replicates each. Fish were fed on 0.0% (control; T1) and 1.0% RLP (T2) along with continuous exposure to either 0.0 (T3) or 7.94 mg Pb/L (T4) for 60 days. Compared with the control diet, feeding Nile tilapia on RLP alone improved the growth performance and haemato-biochemical, antioxidant, and immunological indices. Conversely, the Pb toxicity negatively affected hematocrit, hemoglobin, white and red blood cell counts, and growth indices. Furthermore, Pb exposure raised blood cortisol, glucose, total cholesterol, serum transaminases (ALT and AST levels), alkaline phosphatase, and lactate dehydrogenase accompanied with significant reductions in serum total lipids, protein, albumin, and globulin values. Furthermore, Pb exposure decreased respiratory burst, lysozyme, total immunoglobulins, malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and total antioxidant capacity. On the other hand, dietary RLP significantly reduced the negative impacts of Pb toxicity on the above-mentioned indices. Additionally, the dietary RLP reduced the Pb accumulation in Pb-intoxicated fish leading to significant enhancements in Nile tilapia’s growth and welfare. These findings suggest that dietary 1% RLP could alleviate the Pb toxicity effects on Nile tilapia performance and welfare.

Abstract The aquafeed industry faces many challenges, including reducing the cost of feed by reducing the quantity of fish meal and soybean meal and researching to replace them with other ingredients lower in cost. Furthermore, new low-cost feeds must improve growth and feed utilization while also ensuring fish health. During the past few decades, researchers have shown one of the low-cost and with appropriate nutritional value alternative protein sources to replace fish meal (FM) or soybean meal (SBM) is dried distiller’s grains with solubles (DDGS). Recently, the production of grain-based ethanol as a fuel additive has been increasing as the demand for biofuel has increased, and lessening dependency on fossil fuels has resulted in a dramatic rise in the amount of grains used for ethanol. DDGS are the primary co-product of dry-grind fuel ethanol plants. DDGS has the advantages of having high protein, fat, phosphorus, yield, and low cost. These valuable particles attributed to DDGS have raised controversy amongst feed nutritionists as to how they can proficiently replace fish meal or soybean meal. It has been discovered that DDGS can be replaced with fish meal or soybean meal without affecting growth. Therefore, the present review discusses the effects of dietary DDGS application in the fish feed formulation, the best dietary presence, the possible advantages in fish health, nutrient retention, and the economic benefits of DDGS application in Aquafeeds.

Abstract As a result of the domestication process and systematic breeding, livestock species have been shaped as donors of animal goods for humans. The animals’ role so defined, which has remained unchanged for millennia, now faces criticism from intellectuals (posthumanism), pro-animal activists, and increasingly often, postmodern societies. The core aspect of this growing conflict can be described as a relationship between the personality/individuality of farm animals, animals as persons/nonpersons, and animals as moral subjects/agents. This review aims to discuss these relationships in the context of the current state of ethical reflection and knowledge, and in relation to the future of livestock production. It presents problems of definition and research methodology in the field of animal personality, with particular reference to farm animals, characterises the dilemmas of the moral status of animals in the personality/individuality of farm animals – animals as persons/nonpersons – animals as moral subjects/agents, and discusses the relationship between farm animal personality and animal individuality; moreover, it undertakes to analyse the possibilities of individualised treatment of farm animals at the level of future livestock production. It concludes, among other things, that the concept of “animal personality” in relation to farm animals remains undefined in both research and social spaces. While livestock animals remain moral subjects, some ethical concepts attribute to them a wider range of rights intended for personal moral agents. At the same time, it was noted that an individualised approach to animals appears to be one of the most important directions for sourcing food of animal origin in the future, in line with a systematically increasing level of animal welfare.

Abstract The development and optimization of nanobiotechnology has recently contributed to the elaboration of a wide spectrum of nanoparticlebased strategies that are reliable and feasible for a broad panel of practical applications in different disciplines of biological, agricultural, nutritional, biopharmaceutical, and biomedical research fields. Taking into account the aforementioned facts, the primary goal of this article is to provide an insightful interpretation of not only the topical and coming trends, but also the research highlights related to devising less time- and labor-consuming processes, less cytotoxic procedures, and the most – relatively speaking – effective and inter-disciplinary nano-applications that are being implemented in veterinary medicine, reproductive biotechnology, and their combinations with livestock breeding and animal production.

Abstract The main objective of the current trial was to investigate the impacts of supplemented tilapia diets with S-methylmethionine sulfonium chloride (MMSC) on the growth performance, feed efficiency, body analysis, blood biochemistry and regulation of myostatin (MSTN) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) genes of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). The experimental fish (n =180) weighing 22.4±0.17 g were allocated randomly into three equal groups in triplicate as follows; the control group received an un-supplemented diet; the other two groups received two different levels of MMSC (0.2 and 0.4 g/kg) for eight weeks. The obtained findings demonstrated that tilapia diets enriched with small dosages of MMSC considerably (P<0.05) enhanced all assessed growth performance and feed efficiency indicators when compared with the control group. When compared to the control group, supplemented tilapia meals with 0.2 g MMSC significantly (P<0.05 or 0.01) raised blood protein profile, particularly total protein and globulin levels. Contrarily, blood creatinine levels were significantly (P<0.01) reduced in the group of tilapia fed diets containing MMSC (0.2 or 0.4 g/kg) compared to the group without receiving any supplementation. Whereas, fish body analysis showed higher significant increases in crude protein and ether extract levels (P<0.01) as well as reduced ash content (P<0.05) in the fish group that received lower MMSC doses in comparison to other treated and control groups. In addition, MMSC dietary supplementation significantly down-regulates the expression of MSTN and upregulates IGF-1 mRNA expression compared with the control group. Additionally, both dosages of MMSC supplementation modestly enhanced the intestinal villus histomorphometric score indices with observed tall, thick, and various broad tips in comparison to the control group. In conclusion, it could be recommended that supplemented fish diets with 0.2 g MMSC per kg diet may promote the growth and general health status of Nile Tilapia.
摘要本试验旨在研究罗非鱼饲料中添加s -甲基蛋氨酸磺酸氯(MMSC)对尼罗罗非鱼(Oreochromis niloticus)生长性能、饲料效率、体分析、血液生化以及肌肉生长抑制素(MSTN)和胰岛素样生长因子-1 (IGF-1)基因调控的影响。将体重为22.4±0.17 g的试验鱼(n =180)随机分为3组，每组3个重复，如下所示;对照组饲喂无补充饮食;另外两组给予两种不同水平的MMSC(0.2和0.4 g/kg)，持续8周。结果表明，与对照组相比，添加小剂量MMSC的罗非鱼饲料显著(P<0.05)提高了罗非鱼的生长性能和饲料效率指标。与对照组相比，在罗非鱼饲料中添加0.2 g MMSC显著(P<0.05或0.01)提高了罗非鱼的血液蛋白谱，尤其是总蛋白和球蛋白水平。与未添加MMSC组相比，添加MMSC(0.2或0.4 g/kg)组罗非鱼的血肌酐水平显著(P<0.01)降低。而鱼体分析显示，与其他处理组和对照组相比，低剂量MMSC组的粗蛋白质和粗脂肪水平显著升高(P<0.01)，灰分含量显著降低(P<0.05)。此外，与对照组相比，饲粮中添加MMSC可显著下调MSTN表达，上调IGF-1 mRNA表达。此外，与对照组相比，两种剂量的MMSC补充都适度增强了肠绒毛组织形态学评分指数，观察到高、厚和各种宽尖端。综上所述，每kg饲料中添加0.2 g MMSC可促进尼罗罗非鱼的生长和整体健康状况。

Abstract A broad spectrum of cytologically specific immunophenotypic, biochemical, physiological and molecular attributes of neonatal and adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exists. Taking into account the biological traits of these types of multipotent stem cells, they play a pivotal role in the wide utilization of MSC-mediated engineering and MSC-based assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) for animal production, veterinary research, regenerative and reconstructive medicine, and cell/tissue transplantology. Consequently, this paper sought to comprehensively provide research highlights, and insightful interpretation of current goals and future targets related to the agricultural, embryological and biomedical application of MSC-assisted biotechnological strategies and MSC-dependent interdisciplinary research techniques.

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary probiotic supplementation of Lactobacillus helveticus on growth, digestive enzymes, and hematological, biochemical, immune, and antioxidant parameters, as well as intestinal microbiota of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Fish (35.46±0.9 g) were fed with different levels of dietary L. helveticus: control, 1 × 106, 1 × 107, 1 × 108, and 1 × 109 at high stocking density (80 kg m−3) for 60 days. Results indicated that growth performance significantly improved in probiotic supplemented fish (P<0.05). Digestive enzyme parameters revealed that supplementation could significantly increase amylase, protease, and lipase (P<0.05). The treated groups showed significant improvements in serum immune parameters including lysozyme (LYZ), alternative complement (ACH50), respiratory burst activity (RBA), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) (P<0.05). Total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), and globulin (GLO) increased in fish fed experimental diets (P<0.05). Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity was significantly lower in fish fed dietary additives (P<0.05) while white blood cells (WBC), lymphocytes, neutrophils, hematocrit (Hct), red blood cells (RBC) were significantly enhanced (P<0.05). Fish fed with supplemented diets showed significantly enhanced antioxidant status, catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Malondialdehyde (MDA) content was significantly lower in fish fed dietary additives (P<0.05). Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in the treatment groups were significantly increased (P<0.05). In conclusion, dietary supplementation of L. helveticus reduced detrimental effects of high stocking density on growth performance and immune response. It appears that L. helveticus can be recommended as a beneficial probiotic feed additive for rainbow trout.
摘要本研究旨在评估膳食益生菌补充瑞士乳杆菌对虹鳟生长、消化酶、血液学、生化、免疫和抗氧化参数以及肠道微生物群的影响。在高放养密度（80 kg m−3）下，用不同水平的瑞士乳杆菌（1×106、1×107、1×108和1×109）喂养鱼类（35.46±0.9 g）60天。结果表明，添加益生菌的鱼类生长性能显著改善（P<0.05）。消化酶参数显示，添加益生菌可显著提高淀粉酶、蛋白酶和脂肪酶（P<0.05），呼吸爆发活性（RBA）和髓过氧化物酶（MPO）（P<0.05）。总蛋白（TP）、白蛋白（ALB）和球蛋白（GLO）在实验日粮中增加（P<0.05），乳酸脱氢酶（LDH）活性在饲料添加剂中显著降低（P<0.05）而白细胞（WBC）、淋巴细胞、中性粒细胞、红细胞压积（Hct），红细胞（RBC）显著增强（P＜0.05），添加日粮的鱼类抗氧化能力、过氧化氢酶（CAT）和超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）显著增强。添加鱼粉后，鱼粉中丙二醛（MDA）含量显著降低（P<0.05），乳酸菌（LAB）含量显著增加（P<0.05）。看来，瑞士乳杆菌可以被推荐为有益的虹鳟益生菌饲料添加剂。
