開發含膽綠素相似物之螺旋藻萃取物應用於飼料添加以改善動物腸道健康

2019.08.01-2021.01.31

The global livestock industry is entering a new era. In response to the global trend of phasing out antibiotic growth promoters, investing in research and development of alternative additives has become an important issue. Gut inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are costly and serious diseases in the livestock industry. Possible links between animal IBDs, medicinal feed for livestock, and the antibiotic-resistance threat to the public health are fueling major economic impacts in agriculture. New animal feeds that promote livestock gut health and control IBDs without antibiotics are needed. Previous studies shown that rich nutrients of algae are suitable for feed additive, but the regulatory mechanism of inflammation and anti-microbial activity still unclear. The proposed research seeks to explore the possibility of a new category of livestock feed devoid of antibiotics and that could promote animal gut health and reduce IBDs. It exploits recent discoveries on mesobiliverdin, an analog of the animal metabolite biliverdin known to protect against IBDs and new synthetic strategies for producing it from kilogram (kg) amounts of microalgae. The research is basic and multidisciplinary but has the singular focus of eventual development of a nextgeneration animal feed.

含膽綠素相似物之螺旋藻改善鐵依賴型細胞死亡媒介之雞隻腸炎

2022.08.01~
2023.07.31

鐵依賴型細胞死亡（ferroptosis）為新型態的細胞死亡模式，與細胞內鐵之代謝、 脂肪過氧化和氧化壓力等因素有關，近期研究顯示動物的各種腸道疾病可能與此種 型態的細胞死亡模式有關，且雞隻的壞死性腸炎亦是肉雞產業發達國家的重要問題 ，本研究計畫的執行能夠藉由瞭解鐵的代謝與雞隻腸炎的關係，並由鐵依賴型細胞 死亡的角度來改善雞隻腸炎，並從中發現腸炎發生時潛在的未知因子，作為臨床診 斷的參考依據。
