Lysophospholipid Supplementation in Broiler Breeders’ Diet Benefits Offspring’s Productive Performance, Blood Parameters, and Hepatic β-Oxidation Genes

The present study aimed to investigate whether supplementation of modified lysophospholipids (LPLs) in the diet of broiler breeders can benefit their offspring. A total of 264 49-week-old breeders (Ross 308) were allocated and fed based on a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement with two levels of dietary ene...

description The present study aimed to investigate whether supplementation of modified lysophospholipids (LPLs) in the diet of broiler breeders can benefit their offspring. A total of 264 49-week-old breeders (Ross 308) were allocated and fed based on a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement with two levels of dietary energy (normal energy = 2800 kcal/kg and low energy = 2760 kcal/kg) and two LPL levels (0 and 0.5 g/kg) for periods of 8 and 12 weeks. The offspring were assessed for growth performance, serum parameters, hepatic antioxidative capability, and expression of genes involved in liver β-oxidation at 7 days old. The LPL inclusion improved (<i>p</i> < 0.01) average body weight (ABW), average daily gain (ADG), and feed conversion ratio (FCR). The offspring of 61-week-old breeders fed with LPL exhibited reduced serum triglyceride levels (<i>p</i> < 0.01) but an increase in hepatic glutathione peroxidase (<i>p</i> < 0.05). The LPL increased (<i>p</i> < 0.001) the mRNA expression of the <i>PGC-1α</i> gene in the liver. Supplementing LPL in low-energy diets resulted in higher <i>FABP1</i> gene expression (<i>p</i> < 0.05) in the intestine. In conclusion, LPL supplementation in the breeders’ diet improved offspring performance by enhancing fatty acid absorption, hepatic indices, and the expression of genes involved in liver β-oxidation.
