Brachyspira spp. influences transcriptional regulation of intestinal immune markers in laying hens from conventional and organic production systems.
1. This study identified the pathogen Brachyspira intermedia and B. pilosicoli in laying hens from conventional and organic production systems and investigated their effects on the transcriptional regulation of intestinal immune markers.2. Molecular identification of B. intermedia and B. pilosicoli was performed by qPCR in faecal and egg samples of both production systems. The relative gene expression of nine intestinal immune response markers in caecal tissue was investigated using RT-qPCR.3. Brachyspira spp. was detected in 33% (13/40) of faecal samples but not in eggs. In conventional hens, detection was 25% (5/20) and in organic hens 40% (8/20). Laying hens harbouring Brachyspira spp. showed upregulation of IL-4, important for cytokines regulating antibody production, haematopoiesis and inflammation.4. Overall, identifying B. intermedia and B. pilosicoli in poultry helps implement preventive measures to minimise economic losses in poultry farms and reduce the risk of zoonotic transmission.
期刊介绍:
From its first volume in 1960, British Poultry Science has been a leading international journal for poultry scientists and advisers to the poultry industry throughout the world. Over 60% of the independently refereed papers published originate outside the UK. Most typically they report the results of biological studies with an experimental approach which either make an original contribution to fundamental science or are of obvious application to the industry. Subjects which are covered include: anatomy, embryology, biochemistry, biophysics, physiology, reproduction and genetics, behaviour, microbiology, endocrinology, nutrition, environmental science, food science, feeding stuffs and feeding, management and housing welfare, breeding, hatching, poultry meat and egg yields and quality.Papers that adopt a modelling approach or describe the scientific background to new equipment or apparatus directly relevant to the industry are also published. The journal also features rapid publication of Short Communications. Summaries of papers presented at the Spring Meeting of the UK Branch of the WPSA are published in British Poultry Abstracts .
