• Abstract

  Portosystemic shunt (PSS) is the presence of a anomalous vessel that diverts blood from the portal circulation to the systemic circulation, which could result in clinical manifestations, such as Hepatic Encephalopathy, the main concern. The nutritional management associated with the therapeutic treatment is the main key to improve the clinical condition, and often, the main long term reco…

• Abstract

  Obesity is considered a nutritional and metabolic disease more common in veterinary medicine. It is related to metabolic alterations and has been associated with intestinal microbiota dysbiosis. Studies have shown in both genetically obese and diet-induced mice, that a cecal microbiota from obese animals show environmental genetic tags, which encode enzymes involved in the degradation of …

• Abstract

  The polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) of the most important omega-3 family are linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). DHA occurs in high concentrations in the brain and plays an important role in the development and function of the nervous system. Diets with sources rich in DHA, such as fish oil, contribute to the increased deposition of this f…

• Abstract

  It has been well established that the number and/or activity of the gastrointestinal microbiota can be manipulated by diet, but little data have been provided using high-throughput molecular techniques in dogs, especially in those consuming prebiotics added on diets and none assay correlated the data to immune system response. Therefore, this study will be conducted to gain more knowledge…
