Bacillus coagulans MF-06 alleviates intestinal mucosal barrier from damage in chicks infected with Salmonella pullorum via activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by Li Ma, Guangming Tian, Guangming Tian, Yuejin Pu, Xuguang Qin, Yinghu Zhang, Haojie Wang, Lei You, Gaofeng Zhang, Chun Fang, Xiongyan Liang, Hongbo Wei, Lei Tan, Liren Jiang

“…IntroductionThis study aimed to assess the protective efficacy of Bacillus coagulans MF-06 as a potential alternative to antibiotics in mitigating intestinal mucosal damage in chicks infected with Salmonella pullorum.MethodsA total of 150 one-day-old SPF chicks were selected and randomly divided into five groups: control group (CK), probiotics group (EM), probiotics treatment group (PT), antibiotic treatment group (AT), Salmonella pullorum group (SI), CK, AT and SI groups were fed a basal diet, EM and PT groups were fed a basal diet supplemented with 1.0 × 108 CFU/g Bacillus coagulans; PT, AT and SI groups were gavaged with 1.0 × 109 CFU/0.5 mL Salmonella pullorum at 7 days of age; AT group were fed with 0.375 g/kg neomycin sulfate in the basal diet from days 7–14.ResultsSubsequently, the study evaluated alterations in growth performance, the integrity of the intestinal mucosal barrier, cytokines associated with the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and gut microbiota composition. …”
