“…Moreover, dietary 18.0 and 19.5% CP improved (p<0.01) CF digestibility by 7.12 and 6.45%, respectively, as compared with 16.5% CP, indicating more efficient CF degradation and absorption (Faria Filho et al, 2007). This result was in agreement with the previous observation that CF digestibility increased as dietary CP increased (Ratriyanto et al, 2014a). In addition, according to Li et al (2011), the effect of CP level on nutrient digestibility can be attributed to an imbalance between protein and energy in the diet.…”

“…Also, for the three CP levels, 0.12% betaine supplementation increased CF digestibility, which ranged between 12.87 and 26.89%, as compared with the non-supplemented diets (p<0.05). Regardless of the CP level in the diets, these findings indicate that betaine supplementation improved CF digestibility possibly due to stimulation of microbial fermentation in the digestive tract (Ratriyanto et al, 2014a).…”

“…The digestibility trial was performed over a 5-day total excreta collection, following the procedure proposed by Ratriyanto et al (2014a). During the collection period, the excreta were periodically spread with 0.2 N H 2 SO 4 to minimize further bacterial fermentation.…”

“…Similarly, dietary betaine supplementation was also shown to improve the digestibility of CP (Ezzat et al, 2011;Attia et al, 2016) and EE in laying chickens (Ezzat et al, 2011). Moreover, studies with broilers have revealed that betaine improved DM (Ratriyanto et al, 2014a;Amerah & Ravindran, 2015), OM (El-Husseiny et al, 2007), CP,…”

This study investigated the effects of dietary protein levels and betaine supplementation on nutrient digestibility and performance of Japanese quails. In total, 765 Japanese quails were randomly assigned to a 3×3 factorial arrangement, with five replicates of 17 quails each. Three basal diets were formulated to contain three crude protein levels (16.5, 18.0, and 19.5%). Each protein level was supplemented with 0, 0.06, and 0.12% betaine. The diet with 16.5% dietary crude protein with no betaine supplementation resulted in the lowest crude fiber digestibility, while the 18.0% CP diet supplemented with 0.12% betaine generated the highest crude fiber digestibility (p<0.05). The diets with 18.0 and 19.5% crude protein increased crude fiber digestibility, but reduced ether extract digestibility (p<0.01). Moreover, betaine supplementation increased dry matter, crude protein, crude fiber, and crude ash (p<0.01) digestibility and tended to increase ether extract digestibility (p=0.09). The increase in egg weight for the 18.0 and 19.5% protein diets was correlated with a decrease in feed conversion ratio (p<0.05). However, feed intake and egg production were not affected by protein levels. Betaine supplementation enhanced all performance variables (p<0.01). The diets with 18.0 and 19.5% crude protein resulted in heavier yolks and eggshells than the 16.5% crude protein diet (p<0.05), whereas betaine supplementation increased yolk, albumen, and eggshell weight (p<0.01). The 18.0 and 19.5% protein diets produced similar responses in most evaluated parameters. Laying Japanese quails can be fed diets with 18.0% crude protein. Moreover, betaine supplementation provided several benefits, and particularly improved nutrient digestibility, performance, and egg quality.

“…From the nutritional point of view, Met is classified as essential (carbon skeleton cannot be synthesized by the body) sulfur-containing AA that tasks many roles in the body including (1) [26,27], (2) acting as a precursor of carnitine and glutathione, thus protect cells against oxidative stress [28,29], 3) labile methyl group (CH3) is incriminated in the metabolism of energy, which have to be provided from the diet [30]. Under the influence of methionine-adenosyl transferase, Met is converted to S-adenosyl-methionine (SAM).…”

: Interchanges in the epigenome caused by the environment have been cited in multiple animal being, ranging from insects to rodents passing through poultry, larger animals, and nonhuman primates to humans. These include DNA methylation, chromatin remodeling, histone modifications, and more recently the index has magnified to incorporate noncoding RNAs and microRNA gene regulation. Thus, it is increasingly accepted that, nutrition one of the factors that alter gene expression and affect's health during animal productivity through epigenetic modification. DNA methylation is the most widely studied form of epigenetic modification and occurs within the one-carbon metabolism tract which is dependent upon a number of enzymes in the presence of micronutrients, including folate, choline, and betaine acquired through the diet. In vertebrates DNA methylation is primarily a stable repressive mark built at cytosines in CpG dinucleotides; however, its regulation is more powerful than previously believed. Nutri-Epigenomic is an emerging discipline examining the role of nutrient on gene expression. Ultimately, DNA methylation and other epigenetic status, as well as dietetic practices, particularly micronutrient intake, may influence health and productive phenotypes, also playing as significant biomarker in additive-benefit assessment during the period of use. There are a tight interrelationship betaine, choline and methionine. All are dietary sources of methyl groups made it prominent when studying diet-DNA methylation. In this review, our team will focus on the role of important methyl donors and nutrient-gene inter actions through the one-carbon metabolism.
