Dietary protein effects on growth performance, carcass traits and expression of selected jejunal peptide and amino acid transporters in broiler chickens

Abstract: The effect of dietary protein on growth, carcass traits and some specific intestinal intestinal peptide and amino acid transporters in broiler chickens was studied. Birds received a common pre-test diet, and were subsequently fed either a standard positive control diet (PC) or a reduced CP diet (RCP) from 21 to 42 d of age. Growth was negatively impacted with feeding of RCP as manifested by an increase in feed consumption and feed conversion ratio. Carcass traits also showed evidence of negative effects of fee… Show more

“…Non-ruminant animals acquire nitrogen from their diet in the form of proteins and other foodstuff (Bergen e Wu 2009). Protein digestion in poultry yields amino acids and peptides, which are, in part, absorbed by the organism and used in new protein synthesis, and in part, eliminated by the kidneys (Corzo et al 2011). Thus, poultry excretion primarily serves to eliminate nitrogenous substances (Donsbough et al 2010); uric acid is the primary metabolite excreted in urine (as a whitish paste).…”

“…Another theory for the reduced performance in broilers fed diets with crude protein reduction above four percentage points is related to a likely decrease in the concentration of intestinal amino acids transporters (Corzo et al, ; Nyachoti et al, ; Tuitoek et al, ). In the present study, quail performance was worsened by reducing the dietary protein from 22% to 17.6%.…”

“…Some hypotheses for the reduced performance have been discussed, such as: reductions in dietary potassium intake and changes in electrolyte balance (Vieira et al, 2015); changes in the ratio between essential and non-essential amino acids (Waldroup et al, 2005a); increases in serum ammonia concentrations (Namroud et al, 2008), indicating an imbalance between amino acids; reductions in serum levels of triiodothyronine and thyroxine (Namroud et al, 2010); and changes in intestinal transporters (Corzo et al, 2011).…”
