“In vitro, Thr supplement significantly increased cell numbers, protein content, the activities of GOT, GPT, AKP and Na+/K+-ATPase, and protein synthesis rate of enterocytes, and decreased LDH activity and ammonia content in cell medium (p<0.05).”
“The percent weight gain (PWG), specific growth rate, feed intake, … protein contents of hepatopancreas and intestine, folds heights, activities of alkaline phosphatase (AKP), γ- glutamyl transpeptidase and Na+/K+-ATPase in all intestinal segments, glutamate-…-BP2 gene expression in muscle, hepatopancreas and intestinal segments were significantly enhanced by Thr (…).”
