Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of dietary docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on performance, egg quality and liver function of laying hens with fatty liver hemorrhage syndrome (FLHS) during late laying period. A total of 240 Hy-Line Brown laying hens at 71 weeks of age were randomly assigned to 3 groups with 8 replicates per group and 10 hens per replicate. The control group was fed a basal diet, the high-energy and low-protein group (HELD group) was fed a high-energy and low-protein diet (the basal diet supplemented with 5% chicken oil), and the DHA group was fed a high-energy and low-protein diet containing DHA (replaced 1% soybean oil with 1% DHA in the high-energy and low-protein diet). The experiment period was 12 weeks. The results showed as follows: 1) compared with the control group, the laying rate and average daily feed intake of the HELD group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the HELD group, the laying rate of the DHA group was significantly increased (P<0.05). 2) Compared with the control group, the eggshell yellowness (b*) value, eggshell strength, eggshell weight and eggshell thickness on week 8 and the eggshell thickness on week 12 of the HELD group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the HELD group, the eggshell strength, eggshell weight, and eggshell thickness on week 8 and the eggshell thickness on week 12 of the DHA group were significantly increased (P<0.05). 3) Compared with the control group, the liver weight, liver color, abdominal fat weight and abdominal fat index of the HELD group were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the HELD group, the pancreatic weight and pancreatic index of the DHA group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). 4) Compared with the HELD group, the big yellow follicle number of the DHA group was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the genital tract length was significantly decreased (P<0.05). 5) Compared with the control group, the contents of triglycerides (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) in liver of the HELD group were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the HELD group, the liver TC content of the DHA group was significantly decreased (P<0.05). In conclusion, dietary DHA can mitigate the decline in laying rate induced by FLHS, enhance the egg quality, and alleviate the adverse effects of FLHS on the performance of laying hens.

脂肪肝出血综合征(fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome,FLHS)又称脂肪肝综合征,是蛋鸡产蛋高峰期和后期常见的一种慢性营养代谢疾病,主要特征为腹部脂肪沉积,肝脏脂质变性、出血和坏死,产蛋率下降,死亡率大幅上升等,严重制约了蛋鸡养殖业的发展[1-3]。目前,FLHS的发病机制尚不明确,主要受营养、遗传、内分泌和环境等因素影响,其中营养过剩、蛋白质与能量比例不均衡是造成蛋鸡患病的主要原因[4-5]。与哺乳动物不同,禽类脂质代谢主要器官是肝脏[1]。高能量低蛋白质饲粮中多余能量极易在肝脏被转化为脂肪,而无法及时被转运出,最终引起脂肪沉积;低能量高蛋白质饲粮则由于能量供应不足,肝脏会加大对氨基酸的代谢程度,进而加重代谢负担,导致FLHS的发生[6]。因此,能量与蛋白质比例失调极有可能引起FLHS的发生。
二十二碳六烯酸(docosahexaenoic acid,DHA)是微藻油脂中含量丰富的一种ω-3多不饱和脂肪酸,化学式为C22H32O2,具有多种重要的生理功能,包括调节脂代谢、抗炎、抗氧化和免疫调节等[7-8]。动物自身无法合成DHA,主要通过食用深海鱼类和藻类等途径进行补充[9-10]。微藻作为鱼和虾的食物之一,富含DHA,与鱼油相比,藻油拥有较高纯度的DHA和更高的安全性,而且从微藻里提取的DHA无鱼腥味、无环境污染,是代替鱼油的最佳营养剂,因此更受大众青睐[11-13]。在肉鸡上的研究表明,饲粮中添加DHA和二十碳五烯酸(eicosapentaenoic acid,EPA)等多不饱和脂肪酸能够减少脂肪在肉鸡体内的沉积[14]。在蛋鸡上,DHA常用于改善鸡蛋的蛋黄颜色、蛋壳品质、脂肪酸组成等。研究发现,饲粮中添加DHA复合添加剂能够提高海兰褐蛋鸡的蛋品质,其中8%的添加量能够显著提高鸡蛋哈氏单位[15]。饲粮中添加微藻粉不仅可以显著增加40周龄商品蛋鸡蛋黄颜色,对产蛋量、蛋壳厚度具有有益影响,还有效改变了鸡蛋中脂肪酸组成,增加了蛋黄中DHA含量[16]。杨蕊等[17]在蛋鸡基础饲粮中添加0.2%的DHA并饲喂42 d,显著提高了鸡蛋哈氏单位和蛋壳质量。此外,研究还发现,蛋鸡采食添加鱼油的饲粮后,DHA和EPA可有效在鸡蛋中富集,提高了鸡蛋中DHA的含量和转化率[18]。近年来,DHA在蛋鸡上的研究以及应用越来越广泛,但其是否对产蛋后期蛋鸡FLHS有改善作用仍不清楚。因此,本试验通过建立蛋鸡FLHS模型,研究DHA对产蛋后期FLHS蛋鸡生产性能、蛋品质、生殖指标和肝脏功能的影响,探讨DHA对产蛋后期蛋鸡FLHS的缓解效果。

3.1 DHA对产蛋后期FLHS蛋鸡生产性能和器官发育的影响

目前,关于富含DHA的微藻对蛋鸡生产性能影响的报道不尽相同,主要原因可能是蛋鸡品种、年龄、生理状态及微藻的种类和添加剂量不一致等[19]。彭瑛等[15]研究了饲粮中添加不同水平DHA复合添加剂对海兰灰蛋鸡生产性能的影响,发现显著提高了蛋重,并且对饲料转化率有促进作用,但不影响蛋鸡采食量。陈秀丽等[20]研究发现,饲粮中添加不同水平DHA裂殖壶菌粉不影响蛋鸡的平均蛋重、料蛋比,但有提高产蛋率的趋势,同时提高了平均日采食量。Neijat等[21]和Liu等[22]研究发现,在蛋鸡饲粮中添加不同水平微藻DHA对蛋鸡的生产性能均无显著影响。此外,Herber等[23]在蛋鸡饲粮中添加微藻,却对蛋鸡产蛋率和日均蛋重产生了明显的负面效果。在本研究中,饲喂高能量低蛋白质饲粮显著降低了蛋鸡产蛋率和平均日采食量;在高能量低蛋白质饲粮中添加DHA显著提高了蛋鸡产蛋率,与上述研究不太一致。这些不同影响可能归因于DHA的组成、含量、添加剂量、饲料配方以及蛋鸡的生理阶段和品系的差异。
肝脏指数反映蛋鸡肝脏功能情况,产蛋后期蛋鸡肝脏指数过高将导致肝脏细胞损伤和脂肪变性,进而危害蛋鸡机体健康[19]。研究发现,在海兰褐壳蛋鸡饲粮中添加微藻DHA可以显著降低肝脏指数[17]。在本研究中,饲喂高能量低蛋白质饲粮显著提高了蛋鸡肝脏重量、肝脏颜色、腹脂重量和腹脂指数;而高能量低蛋白质饲粮中添加DHA显著降低了胰腺重量和胰腺指数,显著增加了大黄卵泡个数以及显著降低生殖道长度。

3.2 DHA对产蛋后期FLHS蛋鸡蛋品质的影响

在家禽生产过程中,蛋品质是重要的生产效益指标,关系到其市场售价和经济效益,其中哈氏单位反映鸡蛋的新鲜度[24]。杨蕊等[17]研究发现,饲粮中添加0.2%的DHA能显著提高鸡蛋的蛋黄颜色、哈氏单位和蛋壳质量。付兴周等[25]在饲粮中添加不同水平的DHA复合添加剂,饲喂50周龄海兰褐蛋鸡28 d,结果发现能够显著提高鸡蛋的平均蛋壳厚度和蛋壳强度,其中5%的添加水平效果最佳。刘敏杰等[26]分别添加了1%、2%、3%的DHA裂殖壶藻粉饲喂32周龄京粉一号商品蛋鸡,结果发现试验组蛋黄颜色均显著提高。在本研究中,与对照组相比,HELD组第8周蛋壳b*值、蛋壳强度、蛋壳重量、蛋壳厚度显著降低,第8周蛋黄颜色、蛋白高度和哈氏单位以及第12周蛋黄颜色、蛋形指数和蛋白高度显著提高。然而,Qiu等[27]研究发现,饲喂高能量低蛋白质饲粮显著降低了蛋白高度、蛋黄颜色和哈氏单位,但对蛋壳强度、蛋壳厚度和蛋形指数没有显著影响,与本研究结果不太一致。其原因可能是饲粮鸡油含量、蛋鸡品系和生理阶段等不同因素造成。此外,本研究还发现,与HELD组相比,DHA组第8周蛋壳强度、蛋壳重量和蛋壳厚度以及第12周蛋壳厚度显著提高,第8周蛋黄颜色、蛋白高度和哈氏单位以及第12周蛋黄颜色显著降低,其原因可能是DHA含量和种类、蛋鸡品系、生理阶段、造模方式、饲粮储存方式等因素不同。DHA含量和种类不同,即微藻油里极易氧化的多不饱和脂肪酸含量很高,饲喂蛋鸡后在鸡蛋里富集,在鸡蛋存储过程中非常容易发生氧化而变质[28],最终导致哈氏单位降低;造模方式不同,即本试验HELD组使用鸡油造模,以及鸡油的用量和组成不同,使得HELD组蛋黄颜色显著升高,并且鸡油里的饱和脂肪酸含量较高,和DHA相比鸡油不易被氧化;DHA组部分饲粮在存储过程中,DHA可能会因天气原因、室内温度变化被氧化变质,存在损耗。

3.3 DHA对产蛋后期FLHS蛋鸡肝脏病理变化及TG和TC含量的影响

FLHS亚临床病例的肝脏呈棕黄色,易碎、肿大,包膜下尤其是在肝小叶边缘小范围出血,腹腔沉积大量脂肪[29]。王安琪[30]研究发现,FLHS模型组剖检见肝脏肿大,质地松软易碎,表面有点状及条状出血;HE染色结果呈现出明显病理变化,大量肝细胞肿胀并排列紊乱,细胞质中可见明显脂肪空泡。本研究中,与对照组相比,HELD组肝脏肿大,质地易碎,表面呈黄色,HE染色结果呈现明显病理变化,肝细胞排列紊乱,细胞间质存在大量脂滴;与HELD组相比,DHA组肝脏形态及病理切片结果都有明显缓解,结果表明DHA可以一定程度上缓解蛋鸡FLHS症状。
肝脏是家禽脂肪加工和代谢的主要场所,在蛋鸡脂代谢过程中发挥重要作用。在蛋鸡产蛋后期,肝脏极易发生脂质代谢紊乱,脂肪过度沉积,从而诱发FLHS,造成蛋鸡生产性能下降甚至死亡[6]。之前的研究表明,DHA可显著降低非冠心病患者的肝脏TG含量,并增加肝脏高密度脂蛋白含量[31]。陈何妍[32]研究发现,在健康小鼠饮食中补充DHA可显著降低血清TC、低密度脂蛋白含量,TG含量有所下降但无显著差异,并且影响许多组织中DHA和脂肪酸的含量,表明DHA能干预体内脂代谢如血浆、肝脏等部位。有文献报道,DHA可通过下调肝脏低密度脂蛋白受体基因的表达抑制蛋鸡肝脏中3-羟基-3甲基戊二酰辅酶A还原酶(胆固醇合成关键酶)活性,使胆固醇合成受限,进而降低血清TC含量[33]。刘兵[19]在蛋鸡饲粮中添加0.5%~2.0%的微藻DHA,结果发现添加1.0%及以上水平微藻DHA显著降低了肝脏TG和非酯化脂肪酸(主要由体内脂肪组织中TG分解产生)含量以及血清TG含量。Davis等[34]研究发现,在老年蛋鸡饲粮中添加全亚麻籽可以显著降低血清谷草转氨酶活性,有效减少脂肪变性和肝细胞膨胀,并且有效下调了有关胆固醇代谢、脂代谢、炎症信号转导等基因表达,缓解了老年蛋鸡FLHS的严重程度。在本研究中,与对照组相比,HELD组肝脏发生明显病变,肝脏TG和TC含量显著升高;与HELD组相比,DHA组肝脏TC含量显著下降,与上述研究结果基本一致。DHA可能通过调节脂肪代谢和炎症相关基因的表达进而调节蛋鸡肝脏脂质代谢,发挥保护肝脏功能的作用。

4 结论

饲粮中添加DHA可缓解FLHS引起的蛋鸡产蛋率下降,改善蛋品质,减轻FLHS对蛋鸡生产性能的不利影响。
