Branched chain amino acids alter fatty acid profile in colostrum of sows fed a high fat diet.


ABSTRACT: Background:Branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are important substrates for milk protein synthesis in the mammary gland, and are tightly related to lipid metabolism. No study has been performed examining the role of BCAAs with high fat diets on milk fat synthesis. This study was designed to investigate the effect of dietary BCAAs on growth performance of piglets, progeny body weight, and milk fat composition in sows fed a high fat diet. Four diets (CON?=?control diet; HF?=?high fat diet with 8% soybean oil; HF-MB=HF plus 0.39% BCAAs; HF-HB=HF plus 0.78% BCAAs) were fed to sows from late gestation to weaning. Results:Compared to HF, BCAAs (HF-MB and HF-HB) increased the litter weight (P?
