Then, we investigated the effect of a basal diet and N-15 supplementation (10<sup>8</sup> CFU/mg diet) on growth performance, blood immune parameters (ACP and AKP), and the expression of immune genes. The results demonstrated that the ACP and AKP activities of serum were significantly increased in the N-15-supplemented group. Moreover, N-15 upregulated the expression level of Toll-like receptor 4 (<em>TLR-4</em>) in the kidney, liver, spleen and head kidney. The challenge test showed that supplementation with N-15 could significantly improve the survival rates of grass carp infected with <em>A. veronii</em>.
