A feeding trial was conducted to study the replacement value of concentrates with Barhar (Artocarpus lakocha) leaves on growth performance of kids fed a mixed jungle grass-based diet. Fifteen Sikkim local kids, about 4 months of age and body weight ranging from 5.8 to 9.2 kg, were randomly distributed into three groups of five. Kids were stall fed ad lib with mixed jungle grass collected from the nearby forest and native scrubland. The kids in group I received supplementary concentrate (Maize 35%, mustard cake 32%, rice bran 30%, mineral mixture 2% and common salt 1%) at approximately 2% of BW. For groups II and III, 25 and 50% of the concentrate was replaced with Barhar (Artocarpus lakocha) leaves, respectively. Total dry matter intake (DMI) was not significantly different among groups. Digestibility of CP decreased (p<0.05) and that of NDF increased (p<0.01) with increasing level of Barhar leaves in the diet. Digestibility of ADF (p<0.01), hemi cellulose (p<0.05) and cellulose (p<0.01) was higher in groups II and III than in group I. Ruminal pH and TVFA concentration were not significantly different among groups. Rumen ammonia-N concentration decreased (p<0.01) with increased level of Barhar leaves in the diet. Similarly, plasma urea nitrogen and blood glucose levels were reduced (p<0.05) with increasing level of Barhar leaves in the diet. Replacement of concentrate with Barhar resulted in reduced Hb and lower serum iron concentration. Levels of other serum metabolites including minerals were not altered by the replacement. Average daily gain (ADG) was 53.3, 54.4 and 41.8 g/d in groups I, II and III, respectively. ADG was not adversely affected when the level of replacement was restricted to 25%. However, at 50% of replacement ADG was significantly lower than the control (p<0.05). Thus, it was concluded that Barhar leaves might replace 25% of the supplemental concentrate for growing Sikkim local kids fed on a mixed jungle grass-based diet.
To investigate the effect of 'Saengkankunbi-Tang' on the liver tissue recovery in about 70% cutted rat liver, the observation on the photographing by the Gamma-camera and the electromicroscopic section against the rabbit liver induced by $CCl_4$, these studies were conducted. The results were summarized as follows; Observed on the liver tissue recovery, function regeneration and body weight increase in about 70% cutted rat liver, the recovery of liver tissue and body weight were increased with the passage of the time and also they were showed to the high increase rate in proportion to administration amount. The glucose content in the serum was found in increasing tide as compared with the control group. The alkaline phosphate activity in the serum showed the significant difference in the 10th day and 13th day as compared with the control group. The ammonia content in the blood showed the significant difference only in the 10th day. Observed on the photographing by the Gamma-camera against the rabbit liver induced by $CCl_4$, sample groups were shown to be significant recovery as compared with the control group. Observed on the electromicroscopic section, sample groups showed the control action of the nuclear destruction against the rabbit liver induced by $CCl_4$ and also they showed the control action of the expansion of glycogen and granular endothelial reticulum in cytoplasm. According to the above finding, it is presume that 'Saengkankunbi-Tang' can be applicable to the extensive treatment of liver disease.

To confirm the food quality of conventionally processed fish extracts, protein quality of boiled crucian carp(Carassius carassius) and bastard halibut(Paralichthys olivaceus) extracts and their residues were evaluated. For the both fish extracts, some of the essential amino acids were lowered significantly but two times more proline and glycine were detected in extracts than those in raw fish meats. Boiling(100oC, 5 hours) caused 1.8(crucian carp)~2.4(bastard halibut) times more total free amino acid contents in fish extracts as compared to those in original fish meats. Taurine, glutamic acid, proline, lysine, and ammonia were the predominant free amino acids released in fish extracts. In vitro digestibility of boiled fish extracts were lower at a level of 4~6% than those of raw fish meats. Fish extraction residue had a higher in vitro digestibility and had a 60% lower level of TI than that of original fish meats. 18(bastard halibut)~ 24%(crucian carp) of available lysine was reduced in boiled fish extracts but a remarkable variation was not noted between extracts and residues. PERs and NPRs of fish extracts were significantly lower than those of casein, while those values of extraction residue were slightly higher as compared to those of control(ANRC casein). In vivo apparent digestibility exhibited a similar trend to in vitro digestibility. Hematological properties in serum of rat fed with fish extracts and residue were not changed significantly but the serum cholesterol concentration were reduced in rats fed fish extraction residue comparing with those of control. These results suggest that body weight loss due to fish extracts may not affect physiological changes.

Objectives: The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of Sosiho-tang on thioacetamide (TAA)-induced liver fibrosis in mice and to elucidate its underlying mechanisms. Methods: The mice were divided into 4 groups: Normal mice (Normal), TAA-induced control mice (Control), TAA-induced and silymarin-treated (50 mg/kg) mice (Silymarin), and TAA-induced and Sosiho-tang treated (200 mg/kg) mice (SSHT). Liver fibrosis was induced via intraperitoneal injection of TAA three times a week for 8 weeks. Silymarin and Sosiho-tang were concomitantly administered for 8 weeks. Serum and liver tissues were then collected and the anti-oxidant and inflammatory protein levels in the liver tissues were evaluated using western blotting. Results: SSHT administration significantly reduced the levels of AST, ALT, ammonia, and MPO in the serum. SSHT also significantly down-regulated liver NADPH oxidase and regulated the Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway. SSHT treatment downregulated the liver NF-κB levels and suppressed inflammatory cytokines. SSHT treatment also decreased bile acid-related factors, such as CYP7A1 and NTCP, and fibrosis-related factors, such as α-SMA and Collagen I. Conclusions: Taken together, these data suggest that SSHT administration suppressed the progression of liver fibrosis by activating the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway and inhibiting NF-κB.
An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of mineral extract from granite on the performance, ammonia production from the litter, components of blood, Newcastle Disease (ND) titer and intestinal microflora in broiler chickens. Nine hundred sixty one-day-old broiler chickens (Ross) were assigned to five treatments: C; control, Zeolite; control + zeolite 1$\%$, AM10: control + active mineral water $10\%$ adsorbed zeolite $1\%$, AM20; control + active mineral water $20\%$ adsorbed zeolite $1\%$ and AM30; control + active mineral water $30\%$ adsorbed zeolite $1\%$. Each treatment consisted of four replicates with 48 broiler chicks for feeding trial. In order to test the effect of ND vaccine on the components of blood, ND titer and intestinal microflora, a separate group of 48 broiler chicks were assigned to the same 5 treatment as the feeding trial plus one negative control (No ND vaccine). Weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion and mortality were not significantly affected by dietary treatments but AM30 tended to be higher than other treatments in weight gain and feed intake, especially during later period (4 to 5 weeks of age). Ammonia production from the litter of AM30 treatment was significantly (P<0.01) lower than the control. Components of blood and ND titer in serum of broiler chickens were not significantly affected by treatments but MCHC (mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration) of blood was significantly lower (P<0.05) in Zeolite treatment compared to others. The colony forming unit (CFU) of Clostridium perfringens in the small intestinal content of all zeolite and AM treated groups was significantly (P<0.01) lower than the control while the CFU of Escherichia coli was not significantly affected. The CFU of Lactobacilli in AM30 treatment was significantly (P<0.05) higher than the control. In conclusion, dietary supplement of active mineral water adsorbed to zeolite at $30\%$ level (AM30) tended to improve growth performance of broiler chickens and significantly reduced ammonia production from the litter. It also significantly increased CFU of intestinal Lactobacilli.
This paper is fundamental study to develope the extracorporeal liver support system for patient with fulminant hepatic failure(FHF) or being expected for orthotopic liver transplantation. The polyurethane foam, which is composed of the density of 33kg/m3, the average pore diameter of 500${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, the closed window of 60-70%, was manufactured with the prepolymer of 15% NCO-, Hepatocytes were inoculated to form spheroids in polyurethane foam. The time of spheroid formation in BSA(Bovine Serum Albumin) coated polyurethane foam was shorter than that in raw polyurethane foam. To verify the function of hepatocyte spheroids, we measured ammonia removal rate, urea and albumin secretion rate. Polyurethane foam was suitable for culture of hepatocyte spheroids. And culture of hepatocyte spheroids in polyurethane foam has high possibility in using as an extracorporeal liver support system.

The antimicrobial effect of a novel flavonoid (7-O-butyl naringenin) on Helicobacter pylori ATCC 26695 and its inhibitory effects on the urease activity of the strain were evaluated by comparing with quercetin and naringenin. H. pylori was cultured with brain heart infusion supplemented with 5% horse serum at $37^{\circ}C$ under 10% $CO_2$ atmosphere and the inhibitory effects of flavonoids against the strain were detected using micro-plate methods. During 12 hr of incubation time, the optical densities of phenol red reduced (pink color) in the urea broth by producing ammonia were detected at 560 nm with a spectrophotometer. The results indicated that both quercetin and 7-O-butyl naringenin were effective against the growth of H. pylori. Moreover, inhibitory effect of 7-O-butyl naringenin on the growth of H. pylori was about two-fold higher than quercetin at the same concentration. With regard to H. pylori urease activity, 7-O-butyl naringenin had a greater inhibitory effect than did naringenin or quercetin at the same concentration.
Background: The Panax ginseng berry extract (GBE) is well known to have an antidiabetic effect. The aim of this study is to evaluate and investigate the protective effect of ultrasonication-processed P. ginseng berry extract (UGBE) compared with GBE on liver fibrosis induced by mild bile duct ligation (MBDL) model in rats. After ultrasonication process, the composition ratio of ginsenoside in GBE was changed. The component ratio of ginsenosides Rh1, Rh4, Rg2, Rg3, Rk1, Rk3, and F4 in the extract was elevated. Methods: In this study, the protective effect of the newly developed UGBE was evaluated on hepatotoxicity and neuronal damage in MBDL model. Silymarin (150 mg/kg) was used for positive control. UGBE (100 mg/kg, 250 mg/kg, 500 mg/kg), GBE (250 mg/kg), and silymarin (150 mg/kg) were orally administered for 6 weeks after MBDL surgery. Results: The MBDL surgery induced severe hepatotoxicity that leads to liver inflammation in rats. Also, the serum ammonia level was increased by MBDL surgery. However, the liver dysfunction of MBDL surgery-operated rats was attenuated by UGBE treatment via myeloid differentiation factor 88-dependent Toll-like receptor 4 signaling pathways. Conclusion: UGBE has a protective effect on liver fibrosis induced by MBDL in rats through inhibition of the TLR4 signaling pathway in liver.
This study was conducted to examine the growth performance, carcass characteristics, physico-chemical properties and fatty acid composition of muscle tissues of Hanwoo steers when they were fed diets containing four levels of E. ulmoides leaves. Steers were allotted to one of four dietary treatments, which were designed to progressively substitute Eucommia ulmoides for 0, 3, 5 and 10% of the rice straw in the basal diet. Seventy two Hanwoo steers (321±13kg) were used. Average daily gain (0.81-0.86kg) and feed conversion (10.05-10.59) were not changed by feeding E. ulmoides leaves. Emission of fecal ammonia gas was decreased by increasing substitution levels of E. ulmoides leaves. Emission of ammonia gas in feces of steers were significantly (p<0.05) decreased in the 5% and 10% treatments at 40℃ compared with in control (30.6ppm) and 3% treatment (29.8ppm), respectively 20.3 and 21.6ppm. Back fat thickness was higher (p<0.05) in steers fed control diet (15.0mm) than 5 and 10% E. ulmoides diets (10.2 and 10.5mm respectively). The grade ‘A’ appearances of meat yield of steers were increased up to 20% by the 3% substitution of E. ulmoides leaves, and the grades ‘1+’ and ‘1’ appearances of meat quality were significantly improved (p<0.05) by the 5 and 10% Eucommia ulmoides feeding. There was no statistical difference in meat color of loin and top round among all treatments. It appeared that the 5% and 10% E. ulmoides leaves feeding affected (p<0.05) a increase in oleic acid concentration in loin and top round muscles. The concentration of serum cholesterol was lower (p<0.05) in steers fed 10% E. ulmoides (53.3mg/100g) than that of the other treatments (55.7-57.0mg/100g). The diarrhea incidence was about 20.26% in control, while it was lower (p<0.05) in the 5 and 10% E. ulmoides leaves treatments (10.4-12.5%) than control. There was no statistical difference in the occurrences of respiratory disease among all treatments. It is concluded that E. ulmoides leaves should be a prospective feed additive because it contains various functional substances. It is likely that air-dried E. ulmoides leaves can reduce the back fat thickness of Hanwoo steers and the occurrences of diarrhea. Therefore, the 5 and 10% substitution of E. ulmoides for roughage are highly recommended to be used in practice.
Background: Use of prebiotics in companion animal nutrition is often considered advantageous over probiotics because of the ease of handling, ability to withstand processing and storage etc. While most of the studies on prebiotic use in dogs have been done with processed food as basal diet, the response in relation to homemade diet feeding is not very well explored. Methods: The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary mannanoligosaccharide (MOS) supplementation on nutrient digestibility, hindgut fermentation, immune response and antioxidant indices in dogs. Ten Spitz pups were divided into two groups: control (CON) with no supplementation, and experimental (MOS) wherein the basal diet was supplemented with MOS at 15 g/kg diet. All dogs were fed on a home-prepared diet for a period of 150 days. The study protocol included a digestion trial, periodic blood collection and analysis for lipid profile and erythrocytic antioxidants. Immune response of the animals was assessed towards the end of the feeding period. Results: Results revealed no significant (P > 0.05) variations in palatability score, intake and apparent digestibility of nutrients between the groups. Faecal score, faeces voided, faecal pH, concentrations of ammonia, lactate and short-chain fatty acids were comparable (P > 0.05) between the two groups. Cell-mediated immune response, assessed as delayed-type of hypersensitivity response, was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the MOS group. The percent of lymphocyte sub-populations CD4+ and ratio of CD4+:CD8+ were also significantly (P < 0.05) higher in MOS group. The serum IgG levels were similar (P > 0.05) in both the groups. Supplementation of MOS lowered (P < 0.05) serum total- and LDL- cholesterol levels, when compared with the control group. The erythrocytic antioxidant indices were similar (P > 0.05) between the two groups. Conclusions: The results indicated that supplementation of MOS at the rate of 15 g/kg in the diet of dog augmented the cell-mediated immune response and serum lipid profile without any influences on digestibility of nutrients, hindgut fermentation and antioxidants indices.
