Project description:Individual male broilers (Cobb500; n=16) were allotted to 4 experimental diets containing either no phytogenic feed additives, an essential oil blend, saponin extract or a combination of both phytogenic preparations. Jejunum samples were used for transcriptome profiling.
Project description:Atlantic salmon was fed with diets based on five plant protein sources combined with soyabean saponins. Diets with corn gluten, sunflower, rapeseed and horsebean produced minor effects while combination of saponins with pea protein concentrate caused enteritis and major transcriptome changes in the distal intestine. Microarray analyses were perfromed in distant intestine. Individual samples from fish that received saponing were hybridized to pools from salmon fed with the same feeds without saponins.

Project description:Several studies have demonstrated that rosemary polyphenols exert changes in the lipid metabolism in adipose and hepatic cells. However, limited information is available about their effect on the lipids metabolism in cancer cells. To improve our limited knowledge on this issue, a Foodomics approach is applied to study the effects of a polyphenol-enriched supercritical rosemary extract and carnosic acid on the transcriptome and cholesterol metabolism in HT-29 colon cancer cells.
