The effect of dietary sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) on local cellular responses toTrichostrongylus colubriformisin sheep

Abstract: The effect of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) hay consumption on the pathophysiology and local cellular responses of growing lambs during infection with Trichostrongylus colubriformis was investigated. Thirty-two lambs, 16 weeks of age, were allocated to 1 of 4 treatment groups (n=8) that were offered either grass (G) or sainfoin (S) hay while concurrently either infected (+), or not (x) with 12 000 L3 T. colubriformis larvae per week for 6 weeks. Liveweight gains were affected by diet (P=0 . 002) and reduced… Show more

“…Besides, as the sainfoin also contains lectins (such concanavalin A), we also hypothesise that these molecules might have an impact on T. colubriformis infection, as shown in sheep (Rios de Alvarez et al, 2010). This should be further studied in the rabbit.…”

“…As variações ambientais e sazonais também podem alterar a síntese destes compostos e afetar suas propriedades (ATHANASIADOU et al, 2007). Alguns metabólitos secundários, como os compostos polifenólicos, possuem características potencialmente benéficas na prevenção de doenças e proteção da estabilidade do genoma, agindo como antioxidante, antimutagênica, anticarcinogênica, anti-inflamatória e antimicrobiana (SINGH et al, 2003).…”

“…Taninos são os compostos polifenólicos mais encontrados nas plantas (SINGH et al, 2003). A quantidade sintetizada varia de acordo com a planta e as condições ambientais, apresentando grande variabilidade (OTERO & HIDALGO, 2004).…”
