Abstract
Con el objetivo de determinar el efecto de tres niveles de selenio dietario sobre selenoproteínas y contenido de selenio en cuyes en crecimiento, se utilizaron 33 cuyes destetados, de 12 días de edad y peso promedio de 258± 35 gramos, que después de un período de adaptación de 14 días fueron distribuidos al azar en tres tratamientos (T1, T2 y T3) cuya única diferencia fue el conteniendo de selenio en el alimento: 0.10, 0.17 y 0.24mg Se/kg de alimento para T1, T2 y T3 respectivamente. Los animales recibieron una dieta sin suministro de forraje, con adición de vitamina C y fueron alojados en jaulas individuales provistas de comedero y bebedero individual, tuvieron libre acceso al alimento y agua, se registró el consumo de alimento diario y el peso semanal de los mismos. Al finalizar la quinta semana en las jaulas, los cuyes fueron sacrificados, tomándose las muestras necesarias para medir diversas selenoproteínas y contenido de selenio. No se encontraron diferencias (P˃0.05) entre tratamientos para ganancia de peso, consumo de alimento y conversión alimenticia. Tampoco se encontraron diferencias significativas (P˃0.05) entre tratamientos en actividad de glutatión peroxidasa dependiente de selenio en plasma hígado y riñón ni en actividad de tioredoxina reductasa en hígado. Sin embargo, la actividad de glutatión peroxidasa en eritrocitos y el contenido de iodotironina deiodinasa tipo 1 en hígado, fueron significativamente mayores (P˂0.05) para T2 y T3 con respecto a T1, pero no se encontraron diferencias entre T2 y T3 (P˃0.05). Los contenidos de selenio en sangre y selenio en cuerpo mantuvieron la misma tendencia, siendo significativamente mayores (P˂0.05) para T2 y T3 en comparación con T1, pero sin mostrar diferencias (P˃0.05) entre T2 y T3. En el contenido de selenio en músculo se observó una tendencia a incrementar conforme se incrementó el nivel de selenio en la dieta, sin embargo, estas diferencias no fueron significativas entre tratamientos (P˃0.05). Diferentes niveles de selenio dietario en cuyes en crecimiento modifican la actividad de glutatión peroxidasa eritrocitaria y contenido de iodotironina deiodinasa tipo 1 en hígado, así como el contenido de selenio en sangre y cuerpo.
The study aimed to determine the effect of three levels of selenium on the diet of growing guinea pigs. Thirty-three weaned guinea pigs of 12 days old and average weight of 258g ± 35g were used, which after an adaptation period of 14 days were randomized into three treatments (T1, T2 and T3) whose only difference was the selenium content of the food: 0.10, 0.17 and 0.24mg Se/kg of food for T1, T2 and T3 respectively. The animals received a diet without forage supply, with adtion of vitamin C and were individually housed in cages and had free access to food and water. The daily intake of food and weekly weight of the animals was registered. At the end of the fifth week in the cages, the guinea pigs were sacrificed, taking the necessary samples to measure selenoprotein and selenium content. No differences were found (P˃0.05) between treatments for weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion. No significant differences were found (P˃0.05) between treatments in selenium-dependent glutathione peroxidase activity in liver and kidney plasma or in thioredoxin reductase activity in liver. However, the activity of glutathione peroxidase in erythrocytes and the content of deiodinase in liver were significantly higher (P˂0.05) for T2 and T3 with respect to T1, but no differences were found between T2 and T3 (P˃0.05). The selenium contents in blood and selenium in the body maintained the same tendency as glutathione peroxidase in erythrocytes and deiodinase content in liver, being significantly higher (P˂0.05) for T2 and T3 compared to T1, but without showing differences (P˃ 0.05) between T2 and T3. In the selenium content in muscle a tendency to increase was observed as the level of selenium in the diet was increased, however, these differences were not significant between treatments (P˃0.05). Different levels of dietary selenium in growing guinea pigs modify the activity of erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase and iodothyronine deiodinase type 1 content in the liver, as well as the selenium content in blood and body.
