چکیده

The postnatal maturation of the gut, partially modulated by bacterial colonization, ends up in the establishment of an efficient barrier to luminal antigens and bacteria. The use of broad-spectrum antibiotics in pediatric practices alters the gut bacterial colonization and, consequently, may impair the maturation of the gut barrier function. To test this hypothesis, suckling Sprague-Dawley rats received a daily intragastric gavage of antibiotic (Clamoxyl; an amoxicillin-based commercial preparation) or saline solution from postnatal day 7 (d7) until d17 or d21. Luminal microbiota composition and global gene expression profile were analyzed on samples from small intestine and colon of each group. The treatment with Clamoxyl resulted in the almost-complete eradication of Lactobacillus in the whole intestine and in a drastic reduction of colonic total aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, in particular Enterobacteriacae and Enterococcus. The global gene expression analysis revealed that Clamoxyl affects the maturation process of 249 and 149 Affymetrix probe sets in the proximal and distal small intestine, respectively, and 163 probe sets in the colon. The expression of genes coding for Paneth cell products (defensins, matrilysin, and phospholipase A2) was significantly downregulated by the Clamoxyl treatment. A significant downregulation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class Ib and II genes, involved in antigen presentation, was also observed. Conversely, mast cell proteases expression was upregulated. These results suggest that early treatment with a large-spectrum antibiotic deeply affects the gut barrier function at the suckling-weaning interface, a period during which the gut is challenged by an array of novel food-borne antigens.

Effect of different supplements on eggshell quality, some characteristics of gastrointestinal tract and performance of laying hens

This study was performed to investigate the effects of antibiotic, organic acid, probiotic and prebiotic supplementation on performance, egg shell quality, pH value of gastrointestinal (GI) tract and small intestinal morphology of laying hens. The experiment was a completely randomized design with 160 laying hens strain (W-36) from 32 to 42 weeks of age, with five treatments, four replicates an...

Molecular monitoring of the developmental bacterial community in the gastrointestinal tract of Japanese infants.

The dynamics of the developmental bacterial community in the Japanese neonatal gastrointestinal tract were examined by monitoring 16S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) diversity in fecal samples by PCR and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). The results showed a certain pattern common in infants without antibiotic treatment, in which aerobes, e.g., Pseudomonas, appeared first and were then ...

A YY1-dependent increase in aerobic metabolism is indispensable for intestinal organogenesis.

During late gestation, villi extend into the intestinal lumen to dramatically increase the surface area of the intestinal epithelium, preparing the gut for the neonatal diet. Incomplete development of the intestine is the most common gastrointestinal complication in neonates, but the causes are unclear. We provide evidence in mice that Yin Yang 1 (Yy1) is crucial for intestinal villus developme...

Bacterial population and innate immunity-related genes in rat gastrointestinal tract are altered by vitamin A-deficient diet.

Vitamin A and its derivatives have been shown to regulate the growth and differentiation of gastrointestinal epithelial cells; in addition, vitamin A deficiency has been convincingly shown to be associated with increased susceptibility to infection. The gastrointestinal mucosal barrier, which is a component of the innate immune system, is considered the first line of defense, as it provides a b...
