This study aimed to investigate the potential influences of 25OHD(3) on pork quality, antioxidant status, and intestinal microbiota of growing-finishing pigs receiving low-phosphorus diet. The results showed that 25OHD(3) supplementation improved production performance, meat quality, antioxidant capacity, bone properties, and gut microbiota composition of the pigs.
Introduction25-Hydroxycholecalciferol (25OHD(3)) is the active metabolite of regular vitamin D(3)in vivo, which has a stronger biological activity and is more easily absorbed by the intestine than regular vitamin D-3. Our study aimed to detect the potential influences of 25OHD(3) on pork quality, antioxidant status, and intestinal microbiota of growing-finishing pigs receiving low-phosphorus (P) diet. Methods and resultsForty pigs [initial body weight (BW): 49.42 +/- 4.01 kg] were allocated into two groups including low-P diet (CON group) and low-P diet supplemented with 50 mu g/kg 25OHD(3) (25OHD(3) group). The whole experiment lasted for 88 days, including phase 1 (day 1-28), phase 2 (day 29-60), and phase 3 (day 61-88). The results showed that 25OHD(3) supplementation tended to decrease feed conversion ratio in phase 3 and overall phase in comparison with the CON group. 25OHD(3) increased (p < 0.05) serum contents of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and decreased (p < 0.05) serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase level. 25OHD(3) increased (p < 0.05) mucosal GSH-Px activity in the duodenum and ileum, and tended to increase redness value and the activities of total antioxidant capacity and SOD in longissimus dorsi. 25OHD(3) significantly upregulated the mRNA level of copper/zinc superoxide dismutase, and tended to change the mRNA levels of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 and kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 in longissimus dorsi. Moreover, 25OHD(3) supplementation decreased (p < 0.05) n-6/n-3 and iodine value in longissimus dorsi. For bone quality, 25OHD(3) supplementation increased (p < 0.05) calcium content, bone mineral content, and breaking strength in the metacarpal bones. Moreover, the colonic abundance of Lactobacillus was significantly higher in pigs fed with 25OHD(3), and exhibited a positive association with serum antioxidant status, pork quality, and bone characteristics. ConclusionOverall, the inclusion of 25OHD(3) in low P diet partly improved production performance, meat quality, antioxidant capacity, bone properties, and gut microbiota composition of growing-finishing pigs.
