What is Effects of dietary β-1,3-glucan addition on the growth performance, mRNA expression in jejunal barrier, and cecal microflora of broilers challenged with Clostridium perfringens about?
This experiment aimed to explore the interaction of β-1,3-glucan and __Clostridium perfringens__ on the growth performance, intestinal health and cecal microflora of broilers. A total of 384 one-day-old Arbor Acre broilers were sorted into 4 treatments with 6 replications. There were 2 factors in this trial: dietary β-1,3-glucan addition including 0 and 250 mg/kg, intestinal enteritis challenged with __Clostridium perfringens__ attack or not. Results showed that __Clostridium perfringens__ infection disrupted the integrity of the intestinal mucosa by reducing the jejunal __Occludin__ and __Claudin-1__ mRNA expression of broiler chickens at 21 d of age (__P__ < 0.05). Meanwhile, when considering __Clostridium perfringens__ as the main effect, it also decreased the mRNA expression of the glucose transporter recombinant sodium/glucose cotransporter 1 (**__SGLT1__**) at d 21 and the fatty acid transporter liver fatty acid-binding protein (**__L-FABP__**) at d 42 (__P__ < 0.05) as well as affect cecum microbial diversity, especially in relative abundance of __Firmicutes__ and __Bacteroidetes__. In addition, __Clostridium perfringens__ infection reduced body weight, daily weight gain, an
