Abstract

To study the effects of diet added with rutin on growth performance, serum biochemical indexes and hormone levels, and rumen fermentation of Hu sheep, thirty-six healthy sheep with similar weight were randomly divided into 3 groups with 12 sheep per group (half of male and female). Each group of sheep were fed a basal diet added with 0 (trial group Ⅰ, as control group), 50 (trial group Ⅱ) and 100 mg/kg BW rutin (trial group Ⅲ), respectively. The experimental period was 70 days including 14 days of adaptation period and 56 days of formal period. The results showed as follows:1) the average daily gain (ADG) of sheep in trial group Ⅰ was significantly lower than that in other two groups (P<0.05), but the feed to gain ratio had the opposite result on day 14 of formal period. 2) The serum glucose content of sheep in trial group Ⅰ was significantly higher than that in trial group Ⅱ (P<0.05), and the serum high-density lipoprotein content of sheep in trial group Ⅲ was significantly higher than that in trial group Ⅱ on day 14 of formal period (P<0.05). The serum total protein content of sheep in trial group Ⅲ was significantly lower than that in other two groups (P<0.05), but the serum triglyceride content had the opposite result on day 35 of formal period. The serum triglyceride content of sheep in trial group Ⅲ was significantly higher than that in other two groups on day 56 of formal period (P<0.01). 3)The levels of triiodothyronine, tetraiodothyronine, leptin, insulin and cortisol in serum of sheep in trial group Ⅱ were significantly higher than those in trial group Ⅰ on day 14 of formal period (P<0.05). The levels of triiodothyronine, leptin, insulin and growth hormone in serum of sheep in trial group Ⅲ were significantly higher than those in trial group Ⅰon day 35 of formal period (P<0.05). The estradiol level in serum of sheep in trial group Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in other two groups (P<0.05), and the levels of triiodothyronine, tetraiodothyronine and growth hormone in serum of sheep in trial group Ⅲ were significantly higher than those of trial group Ⅰon day 56 of formal period (P<0.05). 4) The concentrations of acetic acid, propionic acid, isovaleric acid, valeric acid and total volatile fatty acids in rumen fluid of sheep in trial group Ⅱ were significantly higher than those in trial group Ⅰ (P<0.05). The gene relative expression levels of Prevotella ruminicola, Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens, Ruminobacter amylophilus in rumen fluid of sheep in trial group Ⅰ were significantly higher than those in other two groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The gene relative expression level of Ruminococcus albus in rumen fluid of sheep in trial group Ⅱ was significantly higher than that in other two groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). In conclusion, rutin can regulate hormone secretion and rumen fermentation, and then increase the growth performance of Hu sheep, and the effect is better when additive amount is 50 mg/kg BW under this experiment conditions.
