Project description:Probiotics Bacillus licheniformis Improves Intestinal Health of Subclinical Necrotic Enteritis-Challenged Broilers
Project description:Subclinical necrotic enteritis (SNE) is one of the serious threats to the poultry industry. Probiotics have been proven to exert the beneficial effects in controlling SNE. However, the exact mechanisms of probiotics have not been fully elucidated, and few researchs have focused on their impact on miRNAs. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the miRNA expression profles in the ileum of broiler chickens during probiotic supplement treatment for SNE. 180 newly hatched male chicks were randomly allocated in three groups, including negative control group(NC), SNE infection group(PC) and Bacillus licheniformis H2 pre-treatment group (BL). Illumina high-throughput sequencing was conducted to identify the miRNA expression of three groups. The results showed that 628 miRNAs, including 582 known miRNAs and 46 novel miRNAs, were detected in libraries. The target genes of 57 significantly differentially expressed miRNAs were predicted and annotated, which were found to partly enrich in pathways related to immunity and inflammation such as tumor necrosis factor receptor binding, immune response-regulating signaling pathway, activation of NF-kappaB-inducing kinase activity, interleukin-15 production, Toll-like receptor 2 signaling pathway and MAP kinase tyrosine/serine/threonine phosphatase activity. Our results provided comprehensive miRNA expression profles of these three different treatment groups. And these findings suggested that H2 could exert beneficial effects in controlling SNE may through immune and inflammatory response associated to altered miRNA expression.

Project description:Gut microbiota of necrotic enteritis chickens2
Project description:Gut microbiota is an unignored target in maintaining intestinal homeostasis due to its regulatory effects on intestinal health through multiple mechanisms, including enhancing intestinal barriers, modulating microbial diversity, secreting various metabolites, etc. Bacteriocins produced by probiotics have been gradually proved vital for intestinal diseases intervention, however, the corresponding mechanisms have received less attention and the whole story of their regulative activities are hard to be fully uncovered. The two-peptide Plantaricin NC8 (PLNC8), coded by gene plnc8, is a bacteriocin ubiquitously produced by Lactobacillus plantarum, has been regarded as the potential vital bacteriocin for the anti-inflammatory effects of Lactobacillus plantarum. This study exploited CRISPR-cas9 and prokaryotic gene overexpression techniques to construct the plnc8 strains for the anti-inflammatory mechanism investigation. Based on the metagenomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics analysis, the anti-enteritis mechanism of PLNC8 systematically in DSS-induced enteritis models were comprehensively revealed. PLNC8 induced alterations in the composition of gut microbiota composition, promoting the alterations of multiple probiotics such as Eubacterium plexicaudatum, Doreasp.5-2, Enterococcus cecorum and Prevotella oulorum. Besides, various metabolites produced by the gut microbiota were influenced, and the key metabolites of xanthine, hypoxanthine, and L-histidine were regulated via purine and histidine metabolic pathways. These metabolites further inhibited p38 MAPK phosphorylation of enterocytes induced by DSS. Ultimately, the intestinal barrier repairment and anti- enteritis were achieved, proving the anti-enteritis effects of PLNC8 via microbe-metabolites-enterocyte axis.
