“…Curcumin dietary supplementation was associated with increased weight gain in the present experiment, a finding that is possibly related to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects (Jungbauer and Medjakovic 2012;Fu et al 2014), increased intestinal villi (Rahmani et al 2018), higher digestibility of fiber (Jaguezeski et al 2018) and stimulation of energy metabolism and antioxidant system (Molosse et al 2019).…”

This study evaluated the effects of curcumin dietary supplementation on growth, physiology, carcass characteristics and meat quality in lambs. Thirty-two male Lacaune lambs (15.6 ± 0.63 kg, 60 ± 2.8 days of age) were randomly allocated in 16 pens (four treatments of four replicates with two lambs each) for 30 days. The animals were assigned to the following treatments: T0, T100, T200 and T300, representing 0, 100, 200 and 300 mg of curcumin/kg of concentrate, respectively. Curcumin dietary supplementation increased (P = 0.02) weight gain; on regression analysis, 315.1 mg curcumin/kg of concentrate was the dosage that provided the greatest weight gain. T200 and T300 lambs had lower (P = 0.04) erythrocytes numbers; T100 and T300 lambs had lower (P = 0.01) leukocyte numbers and T300 lambs had lower (P = 0.04) lymphocyte numbers, compared to T0 lambs. Globulin levels were significantly greater in the T200 group (P = 0.04) only on day 15 but not day 30; levels of total protein were significantly higher (P = 0.01) only in T200 and T300 group on day 15 and only in T200 group on d 30. Gamma-glutamyltransferase concentrations tended to be lower (P = 0.08) in T100, T200 and T300 group on d 15, and only in the T100 group on d 30. Curcumin dietary supplementation increased (P = 0.01) the serum activity of antioxidant enzymes and reduced (P = 0.01) levels of reactive oxygen species. In meat samples, T200 and T300 had greater total antioxidant capacity (P = 0.03) and lower (P = 0.01) lipoperoxidation rates. In carcasses, T300 lambs had greater (P ≤ 0.02) cooling weight losses and yields than did T0 lambs. Curcumin dietary supplementation also reduced (P ≤ 0.03) redness and yellowness. T200 and T300 lambs had fewer (P = 0.01) cooking losses and T200 lambs had greater (P = 0.03) water holding capacity than did T0 lambs. These findings suggest that curcumin dietary supplementation improves growth and antioxidant responses, as well as influencing meat quality in lambs.

“…In hot climatic regions of the world, heat stress (HS) causes oxidative stress in poultry (Lin et al, 2006;Habibi et al, 2014). Oxidative stress causes tissue damage and impair disease resistance, resulting in performance losses (Dhanalakshmi et al, 2007;Rahmani et al, 2017;. In southern China, in particular, high environmental temperatures disturbs poultry thermoregulation due to long duration of summer.…”

Heat stress induces oxidative stress, and reduces body antioxidant metabolite levels, which can affect poultry production performance. Dietary antioxidants protect birds against the adverse effects of heat stress. The effects of increasing concentrations of dietary curcumin on the antioxidant parameters of layers maintained under high-temperature conditions for nine weeks were evaluated. Roman laying hens (n = 336, 22 weeks old, 1420 g BW) were divided into three treatment groups. The first group served as a thermoneutral control (kept at 25 ± 1 °C). The second group was exposed to high temperatures (32 ± 1 °C, 6 h/d), given a basal diet. The third group was further divided into five treatment groups (100, 150, 200, 250, 300 mg/kg Curcumin) fed a basal diet (treatments H1, H2, H3, H4, H5) under high temperatures conditions (32 ± 1 °C, 6 hours/day). As a result of this study, total superoxide dismutase activity was significantly higher in H2 and H3 groups, and total antioxidant capacity was higher in H2, H3, and H5 groups. Catalase and glutathione peroxidase activity was significantly higher in the H3 group. Malondialdehyde concentration was lowered in curcumin supplemented hens compared with control groups hens. Laying hens in all curcumin treatment groups had slightly higher activities of CAT, SOD, GSH-Px, and T-AOC in the liver, heart, and lungs, compared with heat stressed control group. It was concluded that dietary curcumin given to laying hens under heat stress may enhance their antioxidant status, and alleviate the detrimental effects of stressful environmental conditions.

“…creased, but still within the normal range of growing rabbits, which may indicate an improved liver function in prevention of liver damage due to ROS as indicated by improved antioxidant capacity in blood and liver of rabbits in CUR or CURNPs treatments. Enhanced activity of AST and ALT is used widely accepted as a biomarker of hepatic damage(Rahmani et al, 2018). In healthy livers under basal conditions, low amounts of ROS are produced by hypatocytes, while in response to bacterial stimuli, Kupffer cells release free radicals.The ROS are involved in the pathophysiology of inflammatory liver diseases (De Minicis, Bataller, & Brenner, 2006).…”

Beneficial effects of curcumin as a native or nanoparticles form on productive efficiency, liver and kidney functions, antioxidative status and immunity of heat‐stressed growing rabbits

Exposing rabbits to some environmental stresses, particularly heat stress (HS) for long periods, affects their productivity, causing large economic losses (Ayyat, Al-Sagheer, Abd El-Latif, & Khalil, 2018). Under HS conditions, the changes in blood biochemicals and physiological parameters can potentially boost free radicals. These radicals may elevate the production of reactive oxygen species, ROS; resulting in lipid peroxidation, which induce cellular oxidative stress (OS); causing loss of animal welfare and productive ability
