Intestine in fish is a complex multifunctional organ, not only plays roles in digestion and absorption of nutrient, but also has critical role in immunity. The present study evaluated the effects of different levels of dietary sodium butyrate [Butirex (R) C4 (Butirex)] on intestinal immune-,antioxidant-and tight junction-related gene expression injuvenile rainbow trout(Oncorhynchusmykiss). 240 healthy rainbow trout were dispensed in 12 fiberglass tanks appointed to four treatments [0 (control), 1.5 (B1.5), 2.5 (B2.5) and 5 (B5)g Butirex per kg diet]. After a 45-day feeding trial, the fish fed with the Butirex-supplemented diets showed higher intestinal lysozyme (LYZ), complement(ACH50) and bactericidal activities; the elevations in ACH50 and bactericidal activities depended on Butirex levels (P < 0.05). The Butirex-supplemented groups, particularly the B2.5 group, had significantly higher LYZ gene expression compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Butirex at 2.5 and 5 g/kg levels led to significantly higher IL-1 beta gene expression. B2.5 and B5 had significantly lower and higher TNF-alpha gene expression compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The B2.5 group had significantly higher TGF-B, and significantly lower IL-8 compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The B1.5 and B2.5 group had significantly higher IL-10 gene expression compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The B2.5 and B5 groups had significantly higher SOD gene expression compared to the other groups; the highest expression was related to the B2.5 group (P < 0.05). Dietary Butirex supplementation significantly up-regulated CAT and GPx genes expression compared to the control group; the highest expression as related to the B2.5 and B5 groups (P < 0.05). The B2.5 group had significantly lower CLD12 gene expression compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The B2.5 and B5 groups had significantly higher CLD3, OCLD and ZO-1 gene expression compared to the control. The highest CLD3, ZO-1 gene expressions was related to the B2.5, and B5 groups respectively (P < 0.05). After challenge with Streptococcus iniae, B2.5 and B5 had significantly higher survival compared to the control group (55.6 +/- 7.70 and 68.9 +/- 10.2 vs. 33.3 +/- 6.67). In conclusion, Butirex is efficient immune stimulant and health booster in rainbow trout, which augments the fish resistance to disease. Modulation of immune components, cytokines, antioxidant system and intestinal integrity might involve in improving disease resistance in Butirex-treated fish. Although most of the examined genes were modulated by 2.5 g/kg Butirex under normal conditions, 5 g/kg level is recommended under pathogenic state to mitigate mortality.
