garlic supplement improves intestinal mucosa morphology in broiler chickens with developmental pulmonary hypertension
نویسندگان
چکیده
the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary garlic on the growth performance, intestinal mucosa morphology, and pulmonary hypertensive response in broiler chickens with pulmonary hypertension induced by 3, 5, 3′-l triiodothyronine. chicks were reared for 42 days and treated with triiodothyronine (1.5 mg/kg diet) and 0 (control), 0.2, 0.6 or 1% garlic powder. intestinal segments (duodenum, jejunum and ileum) were dissected to assess villus variables. the proportion of chickens with rv/tv ≥ 0.29 was lower in all garlic treatments than control (p < 0.05). body weight of chickens fed 0.2 and 0.6% garlic increased compared to control (p < 0.05). the duodenal and jejunal villus length, width (at 42 days), and surface area (at 28 and 42 days) were significantly higher in most garlic-fed groups than control (p < 0.05). ileal villus length, surface area (in 0.6% garlic group), and width (in 0.6 and 1% garlic groups) also increased in chickens fed garlic supplement at 42 days compared to control (p < 0.05). it is concluded that supplementation of garlic (especially concentrations of 0.6 and 1%) in broiler chickens with developmental pulmonary hypertension could modulate pulmonary hypertensive response and improve intestinal mucosa morphology.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of supplemental L-arginine (ARG) in reduced-protein diets on cardiopulmonary performance and intestinal morphology in the broilers reared at high altitude. A total of 156 day-old male broilers were randomly assigned to 3 treatments and 4 replicates of 13 chicks and reared up to 42 days of age. Treatment groups were designed as a normal-prote...

متن کاملIntravenous endotoxin triggers pulmonary vasoconstriction and pulmonary hypertension in broiler chickens.
Bacterial endotoxins stimulate endothelin-mediated, thromboxane-dependent increases in pulmonary vascular resistance in mammals, and thromboxane has been shown to cause an immediate but transient pulmonary vasoconstriction in broiler chickens. In the present study, i.v. injections of 1 mg endotoxin into anesthetized male broilers caused a pulmonary vasoconstrictive response that was delayed in ...

A feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of diets contaminated with deoxynivalenol (DON on the performance of broilers and on the electro-physiological parameters of the gut. The control group was fed the starter and finisher diets without addition of DON. Another group of broilers was fed the starter and finisher diets with 10 mg/kg DON, whereas another group was fed the DON-conta...
