Abstract
本発明は、家畜の雄における精子の機能を改善し、家畜の受精率を向上させるための手段を提供することを課題とする。5−アミノレブリン酸を飼料に添加して家畜の雄に投与した場合に、投与した家畜の雄由来の精子の奇形率が減少する。An object of the present invention is to provide a means for improving sperm function in male livestock and improving fertilization rate of livestock. When 5-aminolevulinic acid is added to the feed and administered to male domestic animals, the malformation rate of sperm derived from male domestic animals is reduced.
Description
本発明は、家畜における精子機能改善剤に関し、さらに詳しくは、5−アミノレブリン酸(5−ALA)若しくはその誘導体又はそれらの塩を含む、家畜における精子機能改善剤に関する。 The present invention relates to a sperm function improving agent in livestock, and more particularly to a sperm function improving agent in livestock, which comprises 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) or a derivative thereof or a salt thereof.
優れた精肉を生産するために、肉質的に優れた形質を有し、かつ健康で増体の良い血統の子牛が、肉牛として飼養されている。しかしながら、最近日本では、受胎率の低下が報告されており、肉牛においては20年間で約10%、乳牛においては20年間で約20%低下したという報告(例えば、非特許文献1参照)もある。 In order to produce excellent meat, calves with excellent meat quality, healthy and well-weighted pedigree are bred as beef cattle. However, recently in Japan, it has been reported that the conception rate has decreased by about 10% in 20 years for beef cattle and about 20% in 20 years for dairy cows (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1). ..
特定の血統を有する牛由来の人工授精用精液が全国規模で繁殖に利用されており、交配や人工授精に供する牛については、疾患の有無や繁殖機能の障害の有無について確認するため、家畜改良増殖法により種畜検査が義務づけられ、対象の牛の血液や精液が採取される。採取された精子については、精子奇形率等の検査が行われるが、優れた血統を有する牛の精子であって、精液量に問題がない場合においても、精子が奇形である割合が増加しているとされる。 Semen for artificial insemination derived from cattle with a specific pedigree is used for breeding on a nationwide scale, and for cattle used for mating and artificial insemination, livestock improvement is performed to confirm the presence or absence of diseases and the presence or absence of impaired reproductive function. Breeding tests are required by the breeding method, and blood and semen of the target cows are collected. The collected sperm are tested for sperm malformation rate, etc., but even if the sperm is a bovine sperm with an excellent pedigree and there is no problem with the amount of semen, the rate of sperm malformation increases. It is said that there is.
牛における奇形精子症の原因は未だ明確にはなっていない。例えば、ヒト男性の場合beta-estradiol 3-benzoate等のエストロジェン作用を持つ化合物を投与することによって、精子細胞の奇形や上皮からのはく離が起こること(例えば、非特許文献2参照)等、精巣毒性による障害例が報告されているが、雄牛においても同じ理由であるかどうかについての検討はほとんどなされていない。 The cause of teratogenic azoospermia in cattle has not yet been clarified. For example, in the case of human males, administration of a compound having an estradiol action such as beta-estradiol 3-benzoate causes malformation of sperm cells and detachment from the epithelium (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 2), and testicular toxicity. Although cases of disability due to illness have been reported, little studies have been made on whether the same reason is found in bulls.
一方、鶏においても、1960年代より、飼料効率増進を目的とした検討において人工授精について関心が高まっていた(例えば、非特許文献3参照)。最近は、コクや旨味を特徴とする銘柄地鶏の作出、増産も進められており、人工授精の効率的な方法についての検討が行われ、精子の冷凍方法や解凍方法や精液希釈によるふ化率等への影響が報告されている(例えば、非特許文献4参照)。 On the other hand, in chickens as well, since the 1960s, there has been increasing interest in artificial insemination in studies aimed at improving feed efficiency (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 3). Recently, the production and production of brand chickens characterized by richness and umami have been promoted, and studies have been conducted on efficient methods of artificial insemination. Etc. have been reported (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 4).
他方、5−アミノレブリン酸(5−ALA)は、動物や植物や菌類に広く存在するテトラピロール生合成経路の中間体として知られており、動物ではアミノレブリン酸合成酵素により、スクシニルCoAとグリシンから生合成され、植物ではグルタミン酸から三段階の酵素反応により生合成される。ALA合成からプロトポルフィリンIXに至る反応は、ヘムの合成系と共有されており、すなわち、プロトポルフィリンIXはクロロフィルとヘム合成の共通の基質であり、Fe2+が配位するとヘムが作られる一方、Mg2+が配位するとMg−ProtoIXが合成され、その後クロロフィル合成経路へと進む。On the other hand, 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is known as an intermediate in the tetrapyrrole biosynthetic pathway that is widely present in animals, plants and fungi. In animals, it is biosynthesized from succinyl-CoA and glycine by aminolevulinic acid synthase. It is synthesized and biosynthesized from glutamate in plants by a three-step enzymatic reaction. The reaction from ALA synthesis to protoporphyrin IX is shared with the heme synthesis system, that is, protoporphyrin IX is a common substrate for chlorophyll and heme synthesis, while coordination of Fe 2+ produces heme. When Mg 2+ is coordinated, Mg-ProtoIX is synthesized and then proceeds to the chlorophyll synthesis pathway.
5−ALAが、豚の成育を促進する旨の報告(例えば、特許文献1参照)がされている。また、哺乳動物を対象とする男性不妊治療剤について報告(例えば、特許文献2参照)があるが、かかる報告は乏精子症・精子無力症を原因とする男性不妊症、勃起不全を原因とする男性不妊症に対する効果についての報告であり、ラットの精嚢の実重量及び体重比重量や、ヒトの勃起不全に対する効果や、ヒトの精子の運動量と生存率について具体的な検討がなされているが、家畜における精子機能の改善との関連については検討されていない。 It has been reported that 5-ALA promotes the growth of pigs (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In addition, there is a report on a male infertility treatment agent for mammals (see, for example, Patent Document 2), but such a report is caused by male infertility and erectile dysfunction caused by oligospermia and asthenozoospermia. This is a report on the effect on male infertility, and concrete studies have been made on the actual weight and weight ratio of rat sperm sac, the effect on human erectile dysfunction, and the motility and survival rate of human sperm. , The relationship with the improvement of sperm function in domestic animals has not been investigated.

本発明者らは家畜の受精率を向上させるために様々な試行錯誤を重ねてきたが、5−アミノレブリン酸が添加された改良飼料を雄牛に投与した場合に、精子の奇形率が減少することを見いだした。また、5−アミノレブリン酸を飼料に10ppm配合した改良試料を調製し、雄鶏に対して150g/日の改良試料を摂取させたところ、雄鶏の精子奇形率が減少し、精子の密度が増加したことを確認し、本発明を完成するに至った。 The present inventors have repeated various trials and errors to improve the fertilization rate of livestock, but when an improved diet containing 5-aminolevulinic acid is administered to bulls, the sperm malformation rate decreases. I found that. In addition, when an improved sample containing 10 ppm of 5-aminolevulinic acid in the feed was prepared and the improved sample was ingested at 150 g / day for the rooster, the sperm malformation rate of the rooster decreased and the sperm density increased.

Before administration of the feed containing the therapeutic agent of the present invention (ALA-containing feed), an ALA-free feed for breeding Japanese beef (manufactured by Nishinihon Kumiai Feed Co., Ltd.) and a roughage such as Otsuhei were allowed to be freely ingested. The average feed intake was 3 to 3.5 kg for Wagyu breeding feed and 4.0 kg to 5.5 kg for roughage such as Otsuhei per day.
上記4頭の雄牛についてALA含有飼料投与直前に、2回ずつ精子の形態を観察した。各雄牛から人工膣法により採取された精子を研究室に運搬した後、リン酸緩衝生理食塩水で3回洗浄(700g5分間の遠心洗浄3回)した。本試験では、二次奇形の発生を防ぐため、グルタールアルデヒド固定後に精子をスライドグラスに塗抹し、ギムザ染色を行った。
染色標本の観察は1標本あたり100個以上の精子を対象に実施した。また、観察用の写真撮影は1標本あたり100個以上の精子を対象に実施した。写真撮影(CCD camera DP73、Olympus)は、顕微鏡の最高倍率である1000倍で行い、位相査装置を用いて精子の輪郭が鮮明になるように行った。奇形率の判定はPC上に撮影写真の拡大像を写して正確に行った。結果を以下の表1に示す。
観察時の奇形の分類については、複合奇形が認められた場合は、より上位の部位として奇形率を算出している。例えば、頭部と中片部に奇形が認められた場合は頭部奇形とした。Sperm morphology was observed twice for each of the above four bulls immediately before administration of the ALA-containing feed. The sperms collected from each bull by the artificial vaginal method were transported to the laboratory, and then washed 3 times with phosphate buffered saline (700 g, 3 times centrifugal washing for 5 minutes). In this test, in order to prevent the occurrence of secondary malformations, sperm were smeared on a slide glass after glutaraldehyde was fixed, and Giemsa staining was performed.
Observation of stained specimens was carried out on 100 or more sperms per specimen. In addition, photography for observation was carried out on 100 or more sperms per sample. Photography (CCD camera DP73, Olympus) was performed at 1000 times, which is the maximum magnification of the microscope, and sperm contours were sharpened using a phase inspector. The malformation rate was accurately determined by copying a magnified image of the photograph taken on a PC. The results are shown in Table 1 below.
Regarding the classification of malformations at the time of observation, if complex malformations are found, the malformation rate is calculated as a higher-level site. For example, when malformations were found in the head and the middle piece, it was regarded as a head malformation.

[鶏についての検討]
(供試鶏)
供試鶏には約500日齢の横斑プリマスロック雄を用いた。8羽の雄を実験に用い、4羽ずつの2群に分け、対照区:(5−ALA無添加)4羽と、処理区:(5−ALA添加)4羽とを設けた。[Example 6]
[Examination of chickens]
(Test chicken)
A male Plymouth Rock chicken with lateral spots about 500 days old was used as the test chicken. Eight males were used in the experiment and divided into two groups of four each, and a control group: (5-ALA-free) 4 birds and a treatment group: (5-ALA-added) 4 birds were provided.
横斑プリマスロックに供試した5−ALA不含の基本飼料としては、粗たん白質:17%以上、粗脂肪:3%以上、粗繊維:6%以下、粗灰分:14%以下、カルシウム:3.5%以上、リン:0.4%以上を含み、ME:2850kcal/kg以上である、成鶏飼育用配合飼料(中部飼料株式会社製)を用いた。 As the 5-ALA-free basic feed used for the lateral spot Plymouth Rock, crude protein: 17% or more, crude fat: 3% or more, crude fiber: 6% or less, crude ash content: 14% or less, calcium: A compound feed for adult chicken breeding (manufactured by Chubu Feed Co., Ltd.) containing 3.5% or more, phosphorus: 0.4% or more, and ME: 2850 kcal / kg or more was used.
上記成鶏飼育用配合飼料に5−ALAを10ppmの濃度となるように添加してALA含有鶏飼料を調製し、一羽あたり一日150g摂取させた。すなわち、処理区の各鶏は、5−ALAを0.0015g/日摂取した。 5-ALA was added to the above-mentioned compound feed for raising adult chickens at a concentration of 10 ppm to prepare an ALA-containing chicken feed, and 150 g of each chicken was ingested daily. That is, each chicken in the treatment group ingested 0.0015 g / day of 5-ALA.
5−ALAの飼料への添加が雄鶏の繁殖能力に及ぼす影響を検証するために、8羽の供試鶏について、ALA含有飼料の給餌開始前(ALA投与前)(2019年7月1〜5日);ALA含有飼料1.5ヶ月投与後(1.5ヶ月後)(2019年8月19〜26日);ALA含有飼料3ヶ月投与後(3ヶ月後)(2019年10月1〜7日);の3つの期間に分けて精液を採取した。具体的には、各期間において3回ずつBogdonoff et al.,Poult. Sci.,33: 665-669,1954の記載に従って、精液は、供試鶏の腹部をマッサージすることにより総排泄腔から採取された。即ち、ALA投与前の期間においては、7月1日、3日、及び5日に精液を採取した。1.5ヶ月後の期間においては、8月19日、22日、及び26日に精液を採取した。3ヶ月後の期間においては、10月1日、4日、及び7日に精液を採取した。なお、8羽の雄横斑プリマスロックのうち、「対照区」の4羽(個体番号1−4)は、全期間にわたってALA不含の基本飼料を与え、「処理区」4羽(個体番号5−8)は、ALA投与前の期間はALA不含の基本飼料を与えたが、7月6日以降はALA含有飼料を摂取させた。各期間の、各鶏から採取された、精液中の精子の運動性、密度、及び奇形率、並びに血漿中のテストステロン濃度を測定した。 In order to verify the effect of addition of 5-ALA to the feed on the fertility of roosters, eight test chickens were fed before the start of feeding the ALA-containing feed (before administration of ALA) (July 1-5, 2019). Sun); After 1.5 months of ALA-containing feed (1.5 months later) (August 19-26, 2019); After 3 months of ALA-containing feed (3 months) (October 1-7, 2019) The semen was collected in three periods of (day); Specifically, semen is collected from the cloaca by massaging the abdomen of the test chickens, as described in Bogdonoff et al., Poult. Sci., 33: 665-669, 1954, three times each period. Was done. That is, in the period before ALA administration, semen was collected on July 1, 3, and 5. For the period 1.5 months later, semen was collected on August 19, 22, and 26. In the period after 3 months, semen was collected on October 1, 4, and 7. Of the 8 male plymouth rock chickens, 4 in the "control group" (individual number 1-4) were fed an ALA-free basic diet for the entire period, and 4 in the "treatment group" (individual number). In 5-8), the basic diet containing no ALA was given during the period before the administration of ALA, but after July 6, the feed containing ALA was ingested. For each period, sperm motility, density, and malformation rates in semen collected from each chicken, as well as plasma testosterone levels were measured.
上記精液中の精子の運動性の測定としては、精液中の精子の運動精子率と活発な前進運動を行っている精子率の2つの項目の測定を挙げることができ、精子運動性解析装置(Computer Assisted Sperm Analysis: CASA、HAMILTON社製)を用いて、運動精子率(Motility(Mol.))と活発な前進運動を行っている精子率(Progressive Motility(Pro.M.))を算出した。運動精子率については、各精子が、静止しているか否かを判定し、動きが確認できる精子を運動精子と判定した。また、活発な前進運動については、1秒間に45μm以上進んでいる精子を活発な前進運動を行っている精子と判定した。 Examples of the measurement of sperm motility in semen include measurement of two items, the motility sperm rate of sperm in semen and the sperm rate of active forward movement. Using Computer Assisted Sperm Analysis: CASA, manufactured by HAMILTON, the motile sperm rate (Motility (Mol.)) And the sperm rate of active forward movement (Progressive Motility (Pro.M.)) were calculated. Regarding the motile sperm rate, it was determined whether or not each sperm was stationary, and the sperm whose movement could be confirmed was determined to be motile sperm. Regarding the active forward movement, sperms traveling 45 μm or more per second were determined to be active forward movements.
上記精液中の精子の奇形率は、上記牛実施例と同様、二次奇形の発生を防ぐため、グルタールアルデヒド固定後に精子をスライドグラスに塗抹し、ギムザ染色を行い、顕微鏡の最高倍率である1000倍で行い、位相査装置を用いて精子の輪郭が鮮明になるように行った。奇形率の判定はPC上に撮影写真の拡大像を写して正確に行った。上記頭部、頚部、中片部、鞭毛主部、及び/又は終末部に奇形があった場合は、奇形があると判定した。 Similar to the above cow example, the sperm malformation rate in the semen is the highest magnification of the microscope after fixing the sperm with glutaraldehyde and smearing the sperm on a slide glass and performing Giemsa staining in order to prevent the occurrence of secondary malformation. It was carried out at 1000 times, and the outline of the sperm was made clear using a phase inspection device. The malformation rate was accurately determined by copying a magnified image of the photograph taken on a PC. If there was a malformation in the head, neck, middle piece, flagellar main part, and / or terminal part, it was determined that there was a malformation.
上記精液中の精子の密度(濃度)は、血球計算板と顕微鏡とを用いて精子数を算出し、精子数/mLとして算出した。 The sperm density (concentration) in the semen was calculated as the sperm count / mL by calculating the sperm count using a blood cell counter and a microscope.
上記ALA投与前、1.5ヶ月後、3ヶ月投与後の各期間に、上記同様3回ずつ供試鶏から血液を採取し、血漿中のテストステロン濃度を測定した。血漿中のテストステロン濃度測定には、テストステロン EIA キット(フナコシ株式会社製)を用い、キットの手順書に準じて濃度を測定した。 During each period before, 1.5 months, and 3 months after the administration of ALA, blood was collected from the test chickens three times in the same manner as described above, and the testosterone concentration in plasma was measured. A testosterone EIA kit (manufactured by Funakoshi Co., Ltd.) was used to measure the testosterone concentration in plasma, and the concentration was measured according to the procedure manual of the kit.
各雄鶏における各採取日の精液における精子の運動精子率、前進運動精子率、濃度、及び奇形率を以下の表7に示す。 Table 7 below shows the motile sperm rate, forward motile sperm rate, concentration, and malformation rate of sperm in semen on each collection day in each rooster.
上記表7の結果を基に、投与前、1.5ヶ月後及び3ヶ月後の各期に得られた精子の運動精子率、前進運動精子率、密度、及び奇形率の3回のデータの平均値を算出し、5−ALAの飼料への添加効果(雄鶏への投与効果)を以下の表8に示す。 Based on the results in Table 7 above, three data of motile sperm rate, forward motile sperm rate, density, and malformation rate of sperm obtained in each period before, 1.5 months, and 3 months after administration. The average value was calculated, and the effect of adding 5-ALA to the feed (effect of administration to roosters) is shown in Table 8 below.
(結果)
上記表8が示すとおり、精子の運動性、密度及び奇形率のいずれの項目においても、対照区と比較して、処理区において、投与による有効性が認められた個体が多かった。(result)
As shown in Table 8 above, in all of the items of sperm motility, density and malformation rate, there were many individuals in the treated group that were found to be effective by administration as compared with the control group.
次に、投与による影響をより明確にするため、各個体における1.5ヶ月後又は3ヶ月後における値の投与前の値に対する比(投与前の値を1とする)を、上記運動精子率、前進運動精子率、精子の密度及び精子の奇形率について算出した。結果を以下の表9に示す。 Next, in order to clarify the effect of administration, the ratio of the value after 1.5 months or 3 months to the value before administration (the value before administration is 1) in each individual is the above-mentioned motile sperm rate. , Forward-moving sperm rate, sperm density and sperm malformation rate were calculated. The results are shown in Table 9 below.
さらに、対照区(個体番号1〜4)及び処理区(個体番号5〜8)の上記運動精子率、前進運動精子率、精子の密度及び精子の奇形率について統計処理を行い、ALAの投与が精子の運動性(運動精子率及び前進運動精子率)、濃度及び奇形率に及ぼす影響について、有意差検定を実施した(ANOVA解析後、Student's t-testによる有意差検定)。結果を以下の表10に示す。 Furthermore, statistical processing was performed on the above-mentioned motile sperm rate, forward motile sperm rate, sperm density and sperm malformation rate in the control group (individual numbers 1 to 4) and the treatment group (individual numbers 5 to 8), and the administration of ALA was performed. A significant difference test was performed on the effects of sperm motility (motile sperm rate and forward motile sperm rate), concentration and malformation rate (significant difference test by Student's t-test after ANOVA analysis). The results are shown in Table 10 below.
(結果)
表10より明らかなとおり、運動精子率及び前進運動精子率においては、3ヶ月間の5−ALAの飼料への添加(投与)により、平均値は高くなったが、対照区と処理区の間には有意差は認められなかった。(result)
As is clear from Table 10, the average values of motile sperm rate and forward motile sperm rate increased with the addition (administration) of 5-ALA to the feed for 3 months, but between the control group and the treatment group. No significant difference was observed in.
一方、精子密度(濃度)は、投与前に比べ投与後の値が高くなり、特に3ヶ月後においては、両区間に有意な差が認められた(P<0.01)。また、精子奇形率は、投与前に比べ投与後の値が低くなり、特に1.5ヶ月後においては、両区間に有意な差が認められた(P<0.05)。これらの結果より、5−ALAの飼料への添加(飼料における濃度:10ppm)は、雄鶏の精子の運動率や前進運動率等の精子運動性には顕著な有効性を示さないが、精子密度及び精子奇形率に対しては有意差をもって有効であると確認された。 On the other hand, the sperm density (concentration) was higher after administration than before administration, and a significant difference was observed between the two sections, especially after 3 months (P <0.01). In addition, the sperm malformation rate was lower after administration than before administration, and a significant difference was observed between the two sections, especially after 1.5 months (P <0.05). From these results, the addition of 5-ALA to the feed (concentration in the feed: 10 ppm) does not show significant effect on sperm motility such as sperm motility and forward motility of roosters, but sperm density. And it was confirmed that it was effective with a significant difference in the sperm malformation rate.
[参考例]
前記投与前、1.5ヶ月後及び3ヶ月後の各期にそれぞれ採取された各個体の血漿中のテストステロン濃度について、測定値を以下の表11に示す。[Reference example]
The measured values of the testosterone concentration in the plasma of each individual collected before, 1.5 months, and 3 months after the administration are shown in Table 11 below.
上記表11の各数値について、統計処理し(ANOVA解析)、ALA投与が血漿中のテストステロン濃度に及ぼす影響について、有意差検定(Student’s t-test)した結果を以下の表12に示す。
Table 12 below shows the results of statistical processing (ANOVA analysis) of each numerical value in Table 11 above and a significant difference test (Student's t-test) on the effect of ALA administration on plasma testosterone concentration.
(結果)
対照区の鶏では、4羽中1羽において投与後(3ヶ月後)にテストステロン濃度が低くなっていた。また、処理区の鶏では4羽中3羽において、投与前に比較し、低い値であった。しかし、各区における、投与前と投与後の値を統計処理した結果(ANOVA解析)有意な差は認められなかった。また、各期における、対照区と処理区の値を比較した結果(Student’s t-test)、投与前、中間期(1.5ヶ月後)及び投与後(3ヶ月後)のP値がそれぞれ0.61、0.49、及び0.47であり、いずれの時期においても、対照区と処理区との間には有意な差は認められなかった(表12)。以上の結果より、3ヶ月間の5−ALAの飼料への添加(投与)は、血漿中のテストステロン濃度には影響しないと考えられた。(result)
In the chickens in the control group, the testosterone concentration was low in 1 of 4 chickens after administration (3 months later). In addition, in the chickens in the treatment group, the values were lower in 3 out of 4 chickens as compared with those before administration. However, as a result of statistically processing the values before and after administration in each group (ANOVA analysis), no significant difference was observed. In addition, as a result of comparing the values of the control group and the treatment group in each period (Student's t-test), the P values before, during the intermediate period (1.5 months later) and after administration (3 months) were 0, respectively. The values were .61, 0.49, and 0.47, and no significant difference was observed between the control group and the treatment group at any of the time periods (Table 12). From the above results, it was considered that the addition (administration) of 5-ALA to the feed for 3 months did not affect the plasma testosterone concentration.
(鶏に関するまとめ)
5−ALAの養鶏飼料への添加(10ppm)は、雄鶏の精子運動性及び血漿中テストステロン濃度には顕著な有効性を示さないが、精子密度及び精子奇形率に対しては有効であると考えられた。
(Summary about chicken)
Addition of 5-ALA to poultry feed (10 ppm) shows no significant effect on sperm motility and plasma testosterone concentration in roosters, but is considered to be effective on sperm density and sperm malformation rate. Was done.
