Abstract
Probiotics have been widely used in aquaculture. This article aims to study the effect of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 on the intestinal barrier function of Rhynchocypris lagowskii. B. amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 were added to R. lagowskii basal diets (CK) as additives at four concentrations: 1.0 × 106 (D-6), 1.0 × 107 (D-7), 1.0 × 108 (D-8) and 1.0 × 109 (D-9) CFU/g by dry weight of basal diet. After a 56 days feeding experiment, the intestinal digestive enzymes and immune enzymes activity of R. lagowski on group D-6, D-7, D-8 and D-9 diet were significantly higher than the control (P < 0.05). In molecular experiments, we found that the levels of TGF-β mRNA, IL-10 mRNA, ZO-1 mRNA and Claudin-3 mRNA in group D-8 R.. lagowskii were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than the control and other groups. Furthermore, the levels of IL-1β and IL-8 mRNA of R. lagowski on group D-6, D-7, D-8 and D-9 diet were significantly lower than the control (P < 0.05). In addition, we found that B. amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 can regulate the intestinal flora balance and improve the intestinal structure of R. lagowskii. In conclusion, B. amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 can improve the intestinal barrier function of R. lagowskii,and can be used as a feed additive in aquaculture.
