OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.The effect of Enterococcus faecium AL41 on acute phase protein activity (in blood), on gene expression of selected mucosal immunity molecules (IgA, mucin 2, insulin-like growth factor) and mucus production (in all parts of the small intestine) was tested in the work. Our results showed that the application of E. faecium AL41 had no effect on the concentration of acute phase proteins, but an increase in the β- and γ-globulin fractions was noted at the end of the experiment. The stimulatory effect of E. faecium AL41 on the relative expression of molecules (IgA and mucin 2), as well as on the dynamics of mucus production in the intestine of chickens, was significantly prolonged.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in EnglishIn this study, we tested the effect of Enterococcus faecium AL41 on the acute phase proteins response (blood), gene expression of selected molecules of mucosal immunity (immunoglobulin A, mucin-2, insulin-like growth factor 2) and mucus production (all parts of the small intestine) in broilers. Our results revealed that the administration of E. faecium AL41 had no substantial effect on the concentrations of acute phase proteins, but we recorded a significant increase in β- and γ-globulin fractions at the end of the experiment. A significant prolonged stimulatory effect of E. faecium AL41 on the relative expression of molecules (immunoglobulin A, mucin-2) as well as on the dynamic of mucus production in the chicken intestine was observed.

OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practiceProbiotic bacteria, including the Enterococcus faecium strain, can improve intestinal mucosal health by several mechanisms, including modulation of the immune response, as well as by improving the protective function of the epithelial barrier. The dietary supplementation with enterococcal probiotics may improve health and growth performances through the optimal utilization of nutrients and maintenance of intestinal integrity, and may reduce the death rate by regulating immune responses in broiler chickens
OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational processThe results of the work will contribute to knowledge of the effects of probiotic bacteria on the function of the intestinal mucosal barrier in poultry
