This study investigated the effects of compound probiotics on intestinal dysfunction and cecal microbiota dysregulation induced by cadmium in broilers. The results showed that cadmium caused intestinal villus damage and inflammation, down-regulated genes related to intestinal barrier and inflammatory factors, and up-regulated certain other genes. However, the addition of compound probiotics effectively improved these changes. Furthermore, the analysis of intestinal microbiota showed that supplementation with compound probiotics increased the abundance of beneficial bacteria and regulated pathways related to metabolism and translation.
Cadmium (Cd), a common environmental pollutant, seriously threatens the health of intestine. This research aimed to investigate the effects of compound probiotics (CP) on intestinal dysfunction and cecal microbiota dysregulation induced by Cd in broilers. A total of 240 1-day-old Arbor Acre (AA) broilers were randomly assigned to four groups. After 120 days of feeding, the jejunum tissues and cecal contents were sampled for jejunum histopathological observation, the intestinal barrier and inflammatory factors related mRNA and proteins examinations, and intestinal microbiota analysis. The results showed that Cd could cause jejunal villus damage and inflammatory cells infiltration, down-regulate the mRNA levels of intestinal barrier related genes (ZO-1, ZO-2, ZO-3, Claudin1, Claudin3, Claudin4, Occludin, and E-cadherin) and inflammatory factor related genes (IL-1 beta, IL-18, IFN-gamma, NF-kappa B), and the protein levels of Claudin1, ZO-1, Occludin, but up-regulate the Claudin2, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA levels. However, the addition of CP could effectively improve these changes. In addition, 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis showed that compared with the Cd group, supplementation CP increased the abundance of Lactobacillales, Clostridiales, Firmicutes, together with regulations on the pathways responsible for energy metabolism, translation and amino acid metabolism. In conclusion, CP could improve intestinal barrier damage and intestinal microbiota disturbance induced by Cd.
