Abstract

The experiment was to investigate the effects of different levels of epimedium extract on semen quality, reproductive endocrine hormone, reproduction performance of aged breeder roosters. Seventy-two healthy 65-week-old Dawu Jinfeng parent breeder roosters with similar body weight [(2.94±0.01) g] were randomly divided into 4 groups with 6 replicates per group and 3 breeder roosters per replicate, and the roosters fed separately. Breeder roosters in the control group were fed a basal diet, and breeder roosters in trial groups Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ were fed diets supplemented with 0.05%, 0.10% and 0.15% epimedium extract, respectively. The feeding experiment lasted for 7 weeks. At the 4th (69-week-old) and 7th week (72-week-old) of experiment, semen was collected to measure semen quality, and blood was collected to measure reproductive endocrine hormone levels; qualified breeding eggs were collected and incubated them on a repeated basis at last two weeks of experiment to measure reproduction performance indexes. The results showed that, compared with the control group, 1) at the 4th week of the experiment, the sperm motility was significantly increased in all trial groups (P<0.05), the sperm abnormality was significantly decreased in trial groups (P<0.05), the number of available sperm in trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the sperm density in trial group Ⅱ was significantly increased (P<0.05). At the 7th week of experiment, the ejaculation volume of trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the sperm motility was significantly increased in trial group Ⅲ was significantly increased (P<0.05). 2) At the 4th week of the experiment, the seminal plasma glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (GOT) and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT) activities in trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ were significantly decreased (P<0.05); at the 7th week of the experiment, the seminal plasma GOT and GPT activities in trial group Ⅲ was significantly decreased (P<0.05). 3) At the 4th week of the experiment, the glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity was in all trial groups extremely significantly increased (P<0.01), and the seminal plasma total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) in trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ was significantly increased (P<0.05); at the 7th week of the experiment, the seminal plasma total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) activity in all trial groups was significantly increased (P<0.05), the seminal plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) content in trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ was significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the seminal plasma T-AOC in trial group Ⅱ was significantly increased (P<0.05). 4) At the 4th week of the experiment, the serum gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) level in all trial groups was significantly decreased (P<0.05), the serum luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone (T) levels in all trial groups was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level in trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ was significantly increased (P<0.05); at the 7th week of the experiment, the serum GnRH level in all trial groups was significantly decreased (P<0.05), the serum FSH and LH levels in trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ were significantly increased (P<0.05), and the serum T level in trial group Ⅲ was significantly increased (P<0.05). 5) The fertility and hatchability of setting eggs in trial groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ were significantly increased (P<0.05), the hatchability of fertile eggs and healthy chick rate of setting eggs in trial group Ⅲ was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the embryonic mortality in trial group Ⅲ was significantly decreased (P<0.05). To sum up, epimedium extract can improve the semen quality of aged breeder roosters through modulating reproductive endocrine hormone, improving seminal plasma antioxidant capability, reducing sperm damage, and finally enhance the reproduction performance of aged breeder roosters, and the suitable supplemental level of epimedium extract in the diet is 0.15%.

种公鸡在饲养后期精子密度、精子活力等下降,繁殖性能急剧减退,导致种蛋的受精率和孵化率降低,严重影响种鸡场经济效益,因此,提高老龄种公鸡的繁殖性能十分重要。现代药理学研究表明,淫羊藿具有提阳气[2]、抗氧化[3]、增强免疫[4]和提高动物精液品质[5-6]的作用。研究发现,淫羊藿复方中草药能够缓解由高频采精导致的种公鸡精液稀少的问题[7];淫羊藿复方中草药可以显著提高种公鸡血浆中生殖激素促卵泡素(FSH)、促黄体素(LH)和睾酮(T)水平[8]。淫羊藿提取物的主要成分是黄酮类和多糖[1]。研究显示淫羊藿多糖可显著提高雏鸡的抗氧化能力[3],但关于淫羊藿提取物在种公鸡繁殖性能方面的研究目前未见报道。本试验通过研究淫羊藿提取物对老龄种公鸡精液品质、血清生殖内分泌激素水平和繁殖性能的影响,考察淫羊藿提取物在种公鸡生产中的应用效果,并揭示其可能的作用机制,为淫羊藿提取物作为饲料添加剂在种公鸡上的应用提供科学依据。

3 讨论

3.1 淫羊藿提取物对老龄种公鸡精液品质的影响

精子密度、精子活力、精子畸形率等直接影响精液品质。本试验中,饲粮中添加淫羊藿提取物可以明显提高种公鸡的精液量,与宫永胜等[7]用淫羊藿复合饲料添加剂饲喂种公鸡所得结果相似。本试验测定的公鸡精液pH为7.47~7.63,与王晓娟等[9]测定的黑凤鸡精液pH相似,接近弱碱性。本试验在炎热夏季进行,种禽场有完整的降温设施,但并不能完全避免热应激,试验中种公鸡的精子活力偏低,可能与季节有关,外界温度升高,精子活力相对较低。淫羊藿提取物显著提高老龄种公鸡的精子密度、精子活力,显著降低精子畸形率,说明淫羊藿提取物显著提高了老龄种公鸡的精液品质,与饶永超等[3]在种公鸡上应用淫羊藿复方中药所得结果相似。
精子破裂时渗漏出来的GOT和GPT可作为精子损伤程度的指示物[10-11]。当精子受损数较多时,精子释放到精清中的GOT和GPT活性就高[12]。GOT是催化谷氨酸与草肽乙酸在心肌内转变成α-酮戊二酸和天冬氨酸的关键酶。GPT是催化谷氨酸与丙氨酸之间氨基酸转化过程中的关键酶。研究表明,淫羊藿提取物(淫羊藿苷含量为10%)可以降低红螯螯虾血清中GPT、GOT活性[13]。本试验中,与对照组相比,各试验组种公鸡血清GOT、GPT活性均有不同程度降低,说明淫羊藿提取物能有效降低精子损伤。
活性氧通过使精子细胞膜产生脂质氧化反应,降低细胞膜的流动性,损伤线粒体,降低酶活性,从而降低精液品质。在老龄公鸡中,随着年龄增长,活性氧在睾丸中不断积累,进而使细胞产生氧化应激,精浆中的GSH-Px和SOD可以防止精子氧化应激[14]。童小峰等[15]研究表明,淫羊藿苷可以减少蛋鸡输卵管氧化应激。淫羊藿中含有的黄酮类具有良好的抗氧化活性[16-17],含有的多糖具有较强的羟基自由基清除能力[18⇓⇓⇓-22],具有开发为天然抗氧化剂的潜力。另有研究表明,淫羊藿、黄芪、当归等合理配伍构成的复方中药可以提高产蛋后期蛋鸡的抗氧化能力[23]。本试验中,淫羊藿提取物提高了老龄种公鸡精浆中GSH-Px、T-SOD活性,降低了MDA含量,总体上提高了整个机体的抗氧化性能,从而改善了老龄种公鸡的精液品质。

3.2 淫羊藿提取物对老龄种公鸡生殖内分泌激素的影响

种公鸡生殖内分泌激素对精液品质有重要的调节作用。下丘脑-垂体-睾丸轴(HPT轴)所分泌的激素调控精子的生成。下丘脑分泌抑制激素或GnRH,GnRH激活垂体上的特导性受体,刺激垂体促性腺激素细胞合成和分泌促性腺激素——FSH和LH。FSH作用于支持细胞,促进生精小管上皮细胞基因的表达,从而促进精子的生成[24]。LH与促黄体生成素受体结合激活腺苷酸环化酶,进而增加睾丸间质细胞内环磷腺苷(cAMP)水平,引发细胞内级联反应,最终导致睾丸间质细胞产生T[25-26],促进精子成熟以及睾丸的发育。淫羊藿中含有黄酮,Ding等[27]研究发现,淫羊藿苷(黄酮类)刺激下丘脑-垂体-性腺轴,提高雄性小鼠繁殖性能。秦绪光等[8]研究表明,淫羊藿复方添加剂可以提高种公鸡血浆FSH、LH、T水平;施金虎等[28]研究发现,淫羊藿可显著提高番鸭血清生殖激素FSH、LH和T水平。本试验中,淫羊藿提取物提高了老龄种公鸡血清中FSH、LH、T水平,说明淫羊藿提取物改善了老龄种公鸡的生殖内分泌功能。饶永超等[3]研究表明,淫羊藿复方中草药添加剂显著提高了种公鸡睾丸中T水平;高学勇等[29]研究表明,淫羊藿苷显著提高了环磷酰胺诱导的生精障碍大鼠血清中T水平。垂体和睾丸分泌的激素通过负反馈调节方式作用于下丘脑,与促性腺激素受体和性激素受体结合发挥作用[30],本试验中,淫羊藿提取物降低了老龄种公鸡血清中GnRH水平,原因可能是淫羊藿提取物提高了种公鸡体内T水平,干扰了下丘脑-垂体-性腺轴,抑制了GnRH的释放。

3.3 淫羊藿提取物对老龄种公鸡繁殖性能的影响

精液品质直接影响种公鸡繁殖性能,精子活力、精子密度可以影响受精率[31]。本试验中,淫羊藿提取物提高了老龄种公鸡的种蛋受精率,这与精子活力提高和精子密度增大有关。饶永超等[3]研究表明,淫羊藿复方中草药显著提高了贵州黄鸡的种蛋受精率、受精蛋孵化率、健雏率。入孵蛋孵化率既体现母鸡卵细胞与精子的结合能力,又反映胚胎和雏鸡的存活力。雷涛等[32]研究表明,中草药饲料添加剂淫羊藿散显著提高了安定鹅的受精率、孵化率。本试验中,淫羊藿提取物提高了老龄种公鸡的种蛋受精率、受精蛋孵化率和入孵蛋孵化率,与上述研究结果相似,说明淫羊藿提取物提高了老龄种公鸡的繁殖性能。

4 结论

综上所述,淫羊藿提取物可以通过调节生殖内分泌激素,提高精浆抗氧化能力,减少精子损伤,从而改善精液品质,最终提高老龄种公鸡的繁殖性能。淫羊藿提取物添加量为0.10%时,老龄种公鸡精浆中GSH-Px和T-SOD活性最高;淫羊藿提取物添加量为0.15%时,老龄种公鸡精浆中精浆MDA含量最低,并且精液品质和繁殖性能最佳。
