Abstract

The present study aimed to explore the effects of γ-aminobutyric acid on growth performance, organ indexes, serum biochemical indicators and intestinal morphology of yellow-feathered broiler chickens under heat stress. A total of 144 thirty-five-day-old male green-footed hemp chickens with similar body weights were randomly divided into 3 groups with 6 replicates in each group and 8 birds in each replicate. The 3 groups were the ordinary temperature control group (CON group), heat stress treatment group (HS group) and heat stress treatment+γ-aminobutyric acid group (GABA group). The CON and HS groups were fed a basal diet, and the GABA group was fed the basal diet supplemented with 100 mg/kg γ-aminobutyric acid. The results showed as follows: 1) compared with the CON group, the body weight at 56 days of age, average daily weight gain and average daily feed intake of HS group were significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the feed to gain ratio was significantly increased (P<0.05); compared with the HS group, the body weight at 56 days of age, average daily weight gain and average daily feed intake of GABA group were significantly increased (P<0.05). 2) Compared with the CON group, the liver, spleen, breast muscle and thymus indexes of HS group were significantly decreased (P<0.05); compared with the HS group, the liver and spleen indexes of GABA group were significantly increased (P<0.05). 3) Compared with the CON group, the rectal temperature on day 3, day 7, day 10 and day 14 of HS group was significantly increased (P<0.01); compared with the HS group, the rectal temperature on day 7, day 10 and day 14 of GABA group was significantly decreased (P<0.01). 4) Compared with the CON group, the contents of triglycerides and potassium in serum of HS group were significantly decreased (P<0.05), the serum albumin content was significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the serum sodium, cortisol contents and aspartate aminotransferase activity were significantly increased (P<0.01); compared with the HS group, the serum corticosterone content of GABA group was significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the serum aspartate aminotransferase activity was significantly decreased (P<0.01). 5) Compared with the CON group, the jejunal villus height of HS group was significantly decreased (P<0.05); compared with the HS group, the jejunal villus height and villus height/crypt depth of GABA group was significantly increased (P<0.05). In summary, heat stress treatment leads to the growth performance decrease, organ development damage, body temperature increase and nutrient absorption and utilization capacity reduce of yellow-feathered broiler chickens; dietary γ-aminobutyric acid has the effect of alleviating heat stress and improving growth performance of yellow-feathered broiler chickens.

热应激是严重影响家禽业的环境因素之一,当环境温度超过家禽的等热范围(16~26 ℃)[1-2]或当个体产生的热量超过其散热能力时[3],就会发生热应激。热应激引起动物呼吸频率加快、食欲降低、生长性能下降,甚至死亡,给家禽业造成重大经济损失。黄羽肉鸡是我国家禽业中的特色产业,2022年黄羽肉鸡出栏量占我国肉鸡出栏量的38%,在我国家禽业中具有举足轻重的地位。但是,黄羽肉鸡主要以农户地面散养为主,环境控制差,且养殖区域主要集中在我国南方地区,因此,黄羽肉鸡在夏季更易发生热应激[4]。目前家禽热应激的研究主要以白羽肉鸡为主,在黄羽肉鸡方面的研究较少。此外,现有研究多采用单一高温诱导持续热应激,与实际生产中的温度变化情况不符,可能导致研究结果缺乏一定的参考价值。因此,通过环境控制仓模拟夏季的环境温度变化,探究循环热应激条件下黄羽肉鸡的营养调控措施十分必要。
γ-氨基丁酸是一种重要的神经递质,广泛存在于动物的神经系统中。它参与调节机体多种功能,包括镇静、记忆和睡眠,具有抗惊厥、降低血压、调节呼吸和食欲以及抗应激等功能[5]。γ-氨基丁酸已初步应用于动物生产中,对于提高动物的采食量、生长性能、抗氧化能力和抗应激能力具有良好的效果[6]。研究表明,热应激会降低爱拔益加(AA)肉鸡血清γ-氨基丁酸含量以及采食量和体重,而饲粮中添加γ-氨基丁酸可改善热应激AA肉鸡的血清γ-氨基丁酸含量和体重[7],提示热应激条件下γ-氨基丁酸含量降低可能是导致肉鸡采食量下降的因素之一。在黄羽肉鸡上,γ-氨基丁酸可以缓解热应激对雏鸡胰腺的损伤,提高雏鸡胰腺组织中消化酶活性,增强抗氧化能力,减少细胞凋亡[8]。γ-氨基丁酸也可降低夏季热应激淮南麻黄鸡的直肠温度,抑制下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺轴激素分泌,缓解热应激[9]。此外,视前区-下丘脑前部被认为是整合源自身体不同部位的热信号进而参与体温调节的主要场所[10]。在大鼠上的研究表明,γ-氨基丁酸作为下丘脑中主要的抑制性神经递质,在寒冷环境温度下解除抑制产热和抑制热损失,在炎热环境温度下抑制产热[11]。因此,γ-氨基丁酸在热应激条件下可能同时具有提高采食量和缓解体温升高的作用。基于此,本研究旨在探究热应激处理对黄羽肉鸡生长性能、体温、器官指数、血清生化指标和肠道形态的影响,以及γ-氨基丁酸的缓解作用,为γ-氨基丁酸在肉鸡生产中的应用提供理论依据。

3 讨论

3.1 γ-氨基丁酸对热应激黄羽肉鸡生长性能的影响

热应激是严重影响家禽业的环境因素之一,可导致肉鸡采食量和体重减少,料重比增加[13]。本试验研究发现,热应激处理降低了黄羽肉鸡的体重、平均日增重和平均日采食量,提高了料重比。这与以往研究结果一致,肉鸡在面临高温时适应性地通过减少采食量进而减少代谢所产生的热量,以缓解体温升高[14]。虽然减少采食量有助于适应高温环境,但也造成了生长性能下降等不利影响。同时,本试验研究显示,饲粮中添加γ-氨基丁酸逆转了热应激处理导致的采食量和体重下降,但对料重比无显著影响。这说明GABA是通过改善高温引起的食欲降低,进而提高体重,而不是通过提高饲料转化效率。Chand等[15]在饲粮中添加γ-氨基丁酸提高了罗斯308肉鸡的采食量和体重;Hu等[7]研究显示,饲粮中添加γ-氨基丁酸提高了AA肉鸡的体重。有研究指出,γ-氨基丁酸能够逆转热应激导致的采食量降低,其原因在于它可以抑制厌食神经肽的表达并上调促食欲神经肽的表达[16]

3.2 γ-氨基丁酸对热应激黄羽肉鸡器官指数的影响

器官指数是反映器官发育状况的重要参数。本试验研究发现,热应激处理降低了黄羽肉鸡的肝脏、脾脏、胸肌和胸腺指数。肉鸡的肝脏作为最大的代谢和解毒器官,非常容易受到应激源的影响,从而破坏肝脏和整个系统的代谢稳态[17]。本试验血清肝功能指标结果也发现,热应激提高了血清谷草转氨酶活性。Ding等[18]研究也显示,热应激处理降低了肝脏重量并引起肝脏炎症。脾脏和胸腺是肉鸡重要的免疫器官,其器官指数降低表明热应激损害了黄羽肉鸡的免疫器官发育,这可能与生产上热应激导致肉鸡死亡率增加有关。这与Tang等[19]的研究结果一致,即热应激处理导致文昌鸡的免疫器官指数降低。本研究同时发现,热应激处理降低了黄羽肉鸡的胸肌指数,这可能与热应激导致的采食量下降,进而发生蛋白质动员有关[20]。此外,本试验研究发现,γ-氨基丁酸提高了热应激处理导致的部分器官(肝脏和脾脏)指数降低和血清谷草转氨酶活性升高,表明γ-氨基丁酸能在一定程度上逆转热应激对肉鸡器官发育的损害[19]。研究表明,虽然γ-氨基丁酸是中枢神经系统中的抑制性神经递质,但是γ-氨基丁酸也可与其受体结合,通过信号传导机制直接作用于中枢神经系统之外的组织,如保护肝脏[21],这可能是本研究中γ-氨基丁酸能逆转热应激导致的血清谷草转氨酶含量升高的原因。

3.3 γ-氨基丁酸对热应激黄羽肉鸡直肠温度的影响

直肠温度通常被用作反映肉鸡热应激状况的标志[17,22-23]。本试验中,热应激处理提高了试验期第3天至第14天黄羽肉鸡的直肠温度,表明本试验较好地模拟了夏季高温情况,建立了黄羽肉鸡热应激模型。此外,本试验发现,γ-氨基丁酸能改善热应激导致的直肠温度升高,与前人研究报道[17,24]一致,这可能与γ-氨基丁酸对体温具有调控作用[11],并在炎热环境中具有降低热量产生的作用有关[25]

3.4 γ-氨基丁酸对热应激黄羽肉鸡血清生化指标和皮质酮含量的影响

血清生化指标能反映机体的生理状态和健康状况等信息[26]。本试验研究发现,热应激处理降低了血清甘油三酯、白蛋白和钾含量,提高了血清钠含量。前人研究表明,热应激条件下,采食量下降会进一步影响肉鸡的蛋白质代谢和脂质代谢。例如,甘油三酯是通过饲粮或通过肝脏内源合成获得的,热应激会导致肉鸡血清甘油三酯含量降低[27]。Huang等[28]研究也发现,热应激处理降低了肉鸡血清白蛋白含量。此外,热应激还会引起酸碱平衡发生变化,导致呼吸性碱中毒的发生[29]。本试验中,热应激处理降低了血清钾含量,提高了血清钠含量,表明热应激损害了黄羽肉鸡的酸碱平衡。
家禽的应激反应主要是由下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺轴和正交感神经系统的激活引起的。此前报道表明,热应激会激活肉鸡下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺轴而导致血清皮质酮含量升高[30]。本试验研究发现,热应激提高了血清皮质酮含量,而γ-氨基丁酸缓解了热应激引起的血清皮质酮含量升高。

3.5 γ-氨基丁酸对热应激黄羽肉鸡空肠上皮形态的影响

肠道损伤是热应激的重要表现之一,绒毛高度、隐窝深度和绒毛高度/隐窝深度是评估肠道健康和营养物质吸收状况的关键指标[31]。绒毛高度越高,肠道黏膜表面积越大,与营养物质接触越充分,利于营养物质的吸收[32]。隐窝深度越浅,肠上皮细胞成熟率越高,吸收功能越强[31]。本试验研究发现,热应激处理降低了黄羽肉鸡空肠的绒毛高度,而γ-氨基丁酸能缓解热应激导致的黄羽肉鸡空肠绒毛高度降低。Song等[33]研究也显示,热应激处理导致肉鸡空肠绒毛高度降低,隐窝深度变浅,绒毛高度/隐窝深度降低,原因可能是肉鸡在高温环境下会产生过量的氧自由基,对肠黏膜造成严重损害[34]。此外,以往研究表明,γ-氨基丁酸可能通过保护肉鸡的绒毛高度和隐窝深度来减轻高温环境对肉鸡肠道的损伤,从而起到改善营养物质吸收的作用[6,16,35]。有学者指出,γ-氨基丁酸的这些作用可能与谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶活性的增加有关,进而减少热应激条件下肉鸡体内氧自由基的形成[36]

4 结论

热应激处理导致黄羽肉鸡生长性能下降、器官发育受损、直肠温度升高和营养物质吸收利用能力降低;饲粮中添加γ-氨基丁酸可降低黄羽肉鸡的直肠温度和应激反应,改善肝脏功能和肠道上皮形态,缓解黄羽肉鸡热应激,并且具有提高生长性能的作用。
