摘要：
SIGNIFICANCE: Hydroxyproline is a structurally and physiologically important imino acid in animals. It is provided from diets and endogenous synthesis, and its conversion into glycine enhances the production of glutathione, DNA, heme, and protein. Furthermore, oxidation of hydroxyproline by hydroxyproline oxidase (OH-POX) plays an important role in cell antioxidative reactions, survival, and homeostasis. Understanding the mechanisms whereby hydroxyproline participates in metabolism and cell signaling can improve the nutrition and health of animals and humans. Recent Advances: Hydroxyproline is highly abundant in milk and is utilized for renal synthesis of glycine to support neonatal growth, development, and survival. The oxidation of hydroxyproline by mitochondrial OH-POX generates reactive oxygen species (ROS). Enhanced ROS production contributes to the regulation of oxidative defense, apoptosis, angiogenesis, tumorigenesis, hypoxic responses, and cell survival in animals. CRITICAL ISSUES: Although dietary hydroxyproline enters the portal circulation, its utilization by the portal-drained viscera is unknown. Pathways for hydroxyproline metabolism and their regulation at the molecular, cellular, and whole-body levels remain to be defined. Furthermore, the mechanisms responsible for hydroxyproline-derived ROS and related metabolites to induce cell survival or apoptosis are unknown. FUTURE DIRECTIONS: Interorgan metabolism of hydroxyproline (including synthesis, catabolism, and flux) in animals must be quantified using isotope technologies. Efforts should also be directed toward studying dietary, hormonal, and epigenetic regulation of OH-POX expression at transcriptional and translational levels. Another emerging research need is to understand the roles of cellular redox and signaling networks involving both ROS and Delta(1)-pyrroline-3-hydroxy-5-carboxylate in nutrition, health, and disease.

BACKGROUND: Haemophilus parasuis (HPS) is the causative agent of Glasser's disease, characterized by arthritis, fibrinous polyserositis and meningitis, and resulting in worldwide economic losses in the swine industry. Baicalin (BA), a commonly used traditional Chinese medication, has been shown to possess a series of activities, such as anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-tumor, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. However, whether BA has anti-apoptotic effects following HPS infection is unclear. Here, we investigated the anti-apoptotic effects and mechanisms of BA in HPS-induced apoptosis via the protein kinase C (PKC)-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway in piglet's mononuclear phagocytes (PMNP). RESULTS: Our data demonstrated that HPS could induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, arrest the cell cycle and promote apoptosis via the PKC-MAPK signaling pathway in PMNP. Moreover, when BA was administered, we observed a reduction in ROS production, suppression of cleavage of caspase-3 in inducing apoptosis, and inhibition of activation of the PKC-MAPK signaling pathway for down-regulating p-JNK, p-p38, p-ERK, p-PKC-alpha and PKC-delta in PMNP triggered by HPS. CONCLUSIONS: Our data strongly suggest that BA can reverse the apoptosis initiated by HPS through regulating the PKC-MAPK signaling pathway, which represents a promising therapeutic agent in the treatment of HPS infection.
摘要：
l-Glutamate (Glu) has traditionally not been considered as a nutrient needed in diets for humans and other animals (including swine) due to the unsubstantiated assumption that animals can synthesize sufficient amounts of Glu to meet their needs. The lack of knowledge about Glu nutrition has contributed to suboptimal efficiency of global livestock production. Over the past 25 years, there has been growing interest in Glu metabolism in the pig, which is an agriculturally important species and also a useful model for studying human biology. Because of analytical advances in its analysis, Glu is now known to be a highly abundant free amino acid in milk and intracellular fluid, a major constituent of food and tissue proteins, and a key regulator of gene expression, cell signaling, and anti-oxidative reactions. Emerging evidence shows that dietary supplementation with 2% Glu maintains gut health and prevents intestinal dysfunction in weanling piglets, while enhancing their growth performance and survival. In addition, the inclusion of 2% Glu is required for dietary arginine to maximize the growth performance and feed efficiency in growing pigs, whereas dietary supplementation with 2% Glu reduces the loss of skeletal muscle mass in endotoxin-challenged pigs. Furthermore, supplementing 2% Glu to a corn- and soybean-meal-based diet promotes milk production by lactating sows. Thus, an adequate amount of dietary Glu as a quantitatively major nutrient is necessary to support maximum growth, development, and production performance of swine. These results also have important implications for improving the nutrition and health of humans and other animals.

摘要：
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Butyrate can modulate the immune response and energy expenditure of animals and enhance intestinal health. The present study investigated changes in the intestinal microbiota composition and serum metabolites of young broilers in response to 3,000 ppm butyrate in the form of butyrate glycerides (BG) via pyrosequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA genes and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The dietary treatment did not affect the alpha diversity of intestinal microbiota, but altered its composition. Thirty-nine key operational taxonomic units (OTUs) in differentiating cecal microbiota community structures between BG treated and untreated chickens were also identified. <jats:italic>Bifidobacterium</jats:italic> was, in particular, affected by the dietary treatment significantly, showing an increase in not only the abundance (approximately 3 fold, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> ≤ 0.05) but also the species diversity. The (NMR)-based analysis revealed an increase in serum concentrations of alanine, low-density and very low-density lipoproteins, and lipids (<jats:italic>P</jats:italic> ≤ 0.05) by BG. More interestingly, the dietary treatment also boosted (<jats:italic>P</jats:italic> ≤ 0.05) serum concentrations of bacterial metabolites, including choline, glycerophosphorylcholine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, trimethylamine-N-oxide, lactate, and succinate. In conclusion, the data suggest the modulation of intestinal microbiota and serum metabolites by BG dietary treatment and potential contribution of intestinal bacteria to lipid metabolism/energy homeostasis in broilers.</jats:p>
摘要：
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p><jats:italic>Haemophilus parasuis (H. parasuis)</jats:italic> can cause vascular inflammatory injury, but the molecular basis of this effect remains unclear. In this study,we investigated the effect of the anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and anti-oxidant agent, baicalin, on the nuclear factor (NF)-κB and NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway in pig primary aortic vascular endothelial cells. Activation of the NF-κB and NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway was induced in <jats:italic>H. parasuis</jats:italic>-infected cells. However, baicalin reduced the production of reactive oxygen species, apoptosis, and activation of the NF-κB and NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway in infected cells. These results revealed that baicalin can inhibit <jats:italic>H. parasuis</jats:italic>-induced inflammatory responses in porcine aortic vascular endothelial cells, and may thus offer a novel strategy for controlling and treating <jats:italic>H. parasuis</jats:italic> infection. Furthermore, the results suggest that piglet primary aortic vascular endothelial cells may provide an experimental model for future studies of <jats:italic>H. parasuis</jats:italic> infection.</jats:p>
