Project description:Early-weaning-induced stress causes diarrhea, thereby reduces growth performance of piglets. Gut bacterial dysbiosis emerges as a leading cause of post-weaning diarrhea. The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of capsulized fecal microbiota transportation (FMT) on gut bacterial community, immune response and gut barrier function of weaned piglets. Thirty-two were randomly divided into two groups fed with basal diet for 21 days. Recipient group was inoculated orally with capsulized fecal microbiota of health Tibetan pig daily morning during whole period of trial, while control group was given orally empty capsule. The results showed that the F/G ratio, diarrhea ratio, diarrhea index, and histological damage score of recipient piglets were significantly decreased. FMT treatment also significantly increased the colon length of piglets. Furthermore, the relative abundances of Firmicutes, Euryarchaeota, Tenericutes, Lactobacillus, Methanobrevibacter and Sarcina in colon of recipient piglets were increased, and the relative abundances of Campylobacter, Proteobacteria, and Melainabacteria were significantly decreased compared with control group.

Project description:<p><strong>BACKGROUND:</strong> Diarrhea is common in infants, particularly, children less than 2 years old. Intractable or protracted infancy diarrhea is typically associated with feeding intolerance and malabsorption that is lethal for newborns. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of baizhu shaoyao decoction in reducing functional diarrhea induced by weaning stress, while also delving into its potential mechanisms of action.</p><p><strong>RESULTS:</strong> Piglets were allocated into 5 groups, with each group receiving designated medication for a continuous 14-day period: control, zaohu powder, as well as low-, medium- and high-dose baizhu shaoyao decoction groups (n = 6 piglets per group). To identify diarrhea-related biomarkers, microbial communities, functions and metabolites were compared between the early-weaned piglets (control group) and those treated with 1.28 g/kg baizhu shaoyao decoction (medium-dose baizhu shaoyao decoction group). Our findings revealed significant shifts in microbial composition, function and metabolic profiles in piglets from the medium-dose baizhu shaoyao decoction group, intricately associated with the host's diarrhea status. Furthermore, carbohydrate metabolism and biosynthesis, lipid and amino acid metabolism, glycan activity and carbohydrate digestive enzymes exhibited downregulation in piglets of the medium-dose baizhu shaoyao decoction group compared to those in the control group. Transcriptome analysis highlighted the pivotal role of the FoxO1/3 transcription factor in mitigating weaning stress, particularly through the augmentation of CD4+/CD8+ T cell proportions. Our findings underscored that baizhu shaoyao decoction's therapeutic effects on weaning stress involve intestinal barrier restoration, modulation of brain-gut peptide expression and a reduction in mast-cell activity in the ileum.</p><p><strong>CONCLUSIONS:</strong> The key metabolites (chenodeoxycholyglycine, chenodeoxycholyltaurine, dinoprost, chenodeoxyglycocholic acid, glycochenodeoxycholic acid, glycocholic acid, N-choloylglycine, 5-trans-PGE2, Pregnanediol 3-O-glucuronide, spermidine and spermine) exhibited strong correlations with the abundance of <em>Clostridia_bacterium</em> and <em>Lachnospiraceae_bacterium</em>, emphasizing the significance of <em>Clostridia_bacterium</em> and <em>Lachnospiraceae_bacterium</em> in gut metabolism and function. Besides, this study suggests the potential efficacy of baizhu shaoyao decoction in addressing early post-weaning stress-induced diarrhea in infants, showcasing promising prospects for translational and clinical applications.</p>

Project description:Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) has reemerged as the main pathogen of piglets due to its high mutation feature. Monolaurin (ML) is a natural compound with a wide range of antibacterial and antiviral activities. However, the role of ML in PEDV infection is still unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ML on the growth performance, intestinal function, virus replication and cytokine response in piglets infected with PEDV, and to reveal the mechanism through proteomics analysis. Piglets were orally administrated with ML at a dose of 100 mg/kg·BW for 7 days before PEDV infection. Results showed that although there was no significant effect on the growth performance of piglets, ML administration alleviated the diarrhea caused by PEDV infection. ML administration promoted the recovery of intestinal villi, thereby improving intestinal function. Meanwhile, PEDV replication was significantly inhibited, and PEDV-induced expression of IL-6 and IL-8 were decreased with ML administration. Proteomics analyses showed that 38 proteins were differentially expressed between PEDV and ML+PEDV groups, and were significantly enriched in the interferon-related pathways. This suggests ML could promote the restoration of homeostasis by regulating the interferon pathway. Overall, the present study demonstrated ML could confer a protective effect against PEDV infection in piglets, and may be developed as a drug or feed additive to prevent and control PEDV disease.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in serum are very stable and specific. Moreover, serum miRNAs are non-destructive and convenient. Studies have shown that the changes of serum miRNAs are closely relative to the pathological stresses and diseases. Our previous studies suggested that weaning stress induced the abnormal miRNA transcriptome in the intestine of piglets. In this project, we will further screen serum miRNA expression in piglets induced by weaning stress using miRNA microarray. Microarrays containing 422 porcine unique miRNA probes were employed to identify differences in the expression patterns of the miRNA between weaning piglets at 4 d after weaning and suckling piglets at the same days old. A total of 115 differentally expressed miRNAs were found,therein 63 miRNAs upregulated and 52 miRNA downregulated; 64 miRNAs are statistically significant but have low signals (signal < 500);122 miRNAs are not statistically significant (p > 0.01); the remaining 132 miRNAs have not detected signals.

Project description:Emerging knowledge shows the importance of early life events in programming the intestinal mucosal immune system and development of the intestinal barrier function. These processes depend heavily on close interactions between gut microbiota and host cells in the intestinal mucosa. In turn, development of the intestinal microbiota is largely dependent on available nutrients and substrates required for the specific microbial community structures to expand. It is currently not known what the specificities are of intestinal microbial community structures in relation to the programming of the intestinal mucosal immune system and development of the intestinal barrier function. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of a nutritional intervention on intestinal development of suckling piglets by daily oral administration of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) over a period of 12 days. At the microbiota community level a clear “bifidogenic” effect of the FOS administration was observed in colon digesta at day 14. The former, however, did not translate into significant changes of local gene expression in the colonic mucosa. In the jejunum, significant changes were observed for microbiota composition at day 14, and microbiota diversity at day 25. In addition, significant differentially expressed gene sets in mucosal tissues of jejunum were identified at both days 14 and 25 of age. At the age of 14 days, lower activity of cell cycle-related processes and a higher activity of extracellular matrix processes were observed in jejunal scrapings of piglets supplemented with FOS compared to control piglets. At day 25, lower activity of immune-related processes in jejunal tissue were seen in piglets supplemented with FOS. Histological parameters, villi height and crypt depth, were significantly different at day 25 between the experimental and control group, where piglets supplemented with FOS had higher villi and deeper crypts. We conclude that oral FOS administration during the suckling period of piglets has significant bifidogenic effects on the microbiota in the colon and on gene expression in jejunal mucosa scrapings. We hypothesize that FOS supplementation of suckling piglets results in a higher butyrate production in the colon due to the increase in bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the hindgut. We further speculate that a higher butyrate production in colonic digesta relates to changes in gene expression in the jejunum by thus far unknown mechanisms.

Project description:The transcriptome changes of the ileal mucosa in suckling piglets during early postnatal life were analysed to contribute to the knowledge of a pig’s gut development. In addition, the ileal transcriptome of suckling piglets was compared with that of age-matched weaned piglets (weaned at the age of 21 days) to elucidate the effect of weaning on the developing gut. DNA microarray was used to analyse the change of transcriptome profiles and biological pathways in porcine ileum that occurred during the developmental or the weaning process.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of 25d old piglets comparing control untreated suckling jejunum with weaned piglets' jejunum. The goal was to gain new insight into the interaction between weaning and intestinal function.A keen interest is paid in deciphering expression changes of apoptosis or cell cycle control genes. The statistical analysis of gene ontology revealed that most of these altered genes are metabolic-related enzymes and regulators which may involved in the biological regulation, developmental process, and cellular process. Weaning also causes alterations in various immune response pathways. Results likely indicate that weaning induced cell cycle arrest, enhanced apoptosis, and inhibited cell proliferation. Two-condition experiment, suckling control piglets' jejunum vs. weaned piglets' jejunum. Biological replicates: 4 control replicates, 4 weaned replicates.

Project description:Purpose: RNA-Seq has become a powerful tool for investigating transcriptional profiles in gene expression analysis, which would help to reveal the molecular mechanism of Clostridium perfringens type C infecting the piglets. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome profiles of the spleen of piglets caused by Clostridium perfringens type Cens type C. Methods: 30 normal 7-day-old piglets (Y x L), without infecting Clostridium perfringens type C, Escherichia coli and Salmonella, were selected as experimental subjects. 25 piglets were randomly selected as the experimental group, which were disposed once a day for 5 days. Each piglet was dosed with 1 ml of bouillon culture-medium inoculated Clostridium perfringens type C at 37℃ for 16h, which approximate to 1 x109 CFU per ml. Then, 5 piglets were randomly selected as the control group (SC), which were taken the equal volume medium for 5 days.Based on total diarrhea scores, 25 piglets were ranked from high to low. The top and last five piglet were considered as sensitive group (SS) and resistant group (SR), respectively. Finally, spleen were collected and sequenced for lncRNA and mRNA. Results: RNA libraries constructed from spleen of piglets caused by Clostridium perfringens type C were sequenced. A total of 1,450,292,484 clean reads were generated. Among them, 2056 novel lncRNA transcripts corresponding to 1561 lncRNA genes were identified, including 1811 intergenic lncRNAs and 245 anti-sense lncRNAs. The identified spleen lncRNAs shared some characteristics, such as fewer exons and shorter length, with the lncRNAs in other animal. Notably, in pairwise comparisons between the libraries of spleen tissue at the different group, a total of 247 lncRNA and 2170 mRNA were differentially expressed (P < 0.05). Function analyses indicated that these differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs play roles in defensing Clostridium perfringens type C, which were enriched in immune-related biological processes, such as the antigen processing and presentation, TNF signaling pathway, NF-kappa B signaling pathway, B cell receptor signaling pathway and MAPK signaling pathway. Conclusions: This study provides the information of spleen-related lncRNAs in swine diarrhea with Clostridium perfringens type C. We also analyzed all lncRNA’s genomic feature and expression. Bioinformatic analysis indicates that some lncRNAs participated in important biological processes associated with defeasing Clostridium perfringens type C, such as antigen processing and presentation, the MHC protein complex and regulation of autophagy.
