ABSTRACT

 

Khoshvaghti A, Nazifi S, Aghaz M, Valizadeh MR, Vasei M., Effect of nutrition on serum acute phase reactants, inflammatory mediators and gangliosides in ostriches, Onl J Vet Res., 28 (12): 860-866, 2024. The effects of diet on serum acute phase reactants haptoglobin (Hp), serum amyloid A (SAA) and α1-acid glycoprotein (ACG)), inflammatory mediators  tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ )) and gangliosides total sialic acid (TSA), lipid bound sialic acid (LBSA) and protein bound sialic acid (PBSA) in ostriches were investigated. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of 90 healthy ostriches for serum acute phase reactants, inflammatory mediators and gangliosides. We found no effect of diet on serum Hp, SAA, LBSA, TNF- α and IFN-γ. However, we found ~17% higher (P < 0.01) serum sialic acid between diets.
