In vitro probiotic effect of P. heterophylla fibrous roots extract on feed probiotics Bacillus subtilis BD-K010 was studied, and the feasibility of solid fermentation of P. heterophylla fibrous roots was preliminarily evaluated. For in vitro probiotic effect, the increased concentration of P. heterophylla fibrous roots extract dependently increased the total biomass of B. subtilis BD-K010;1.0% P. heterophylla fibrous roots extract received the best effect, and the final p H of 1.0% experimental group was closer to neutral. Meantime, B. subtilis BD-K010 with optimum concentration of P. heterophylla fibrous roots showed significantly higher in vitro antibacterial effect than the control group(P<0.01),and the antibacterial effects on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were improved by 51.99% and 63.16%, but it was ineffective to Salmonella. For solid fermentation, the profile of substrate complex and appendage flocculent structure on substrate surface at the end of fermenta-tion in experimental groups added with B. subtilis BD-K010 and cellulase plus BD-K010 were more complex;the live bacteria number, polysaccharide content and saponin content at fermentation end-point in two experimental groups were extremely higher than those in the control group(P<0.01).P. heterophylla fibrous roots extract had good in vitro probiotic effect on B. subtilis BD-K010 and promoted its antibacterial effect, and it is feasible to use probiotics for solid fermentation of P. heterophylla fibrous roots and to improve effective components. It is of great significance to further de-velop and utilize P. heterophylla fibrous roots resources in modern animal husbandry.展开更多

The levels of IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, and IFN-γ in the serum of mice were measured 14 d after gavage. On the 15day, the remaining mice in the experimental group were intraperitoneally injected with cyclophosphamide(CY), and samples were collected on the 18day to measure serum cytokines levels. The results showed that RPFRE improved the serum cytokine level in normal mice. 0.1 g/kg RPFRE significantly increased the content of IL-2and IFN-γ(P<0.05), while 0.4 g/kg RPFRE significantly increased the content of IL-4 and IL-6(P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that serum cytokines IL-4 and IL-6 in normal mice had an extremely significant positive correlation with RPFRE concentration(P<0.01), IL-2 had a significant or extremely significant positive correlation with IL-4, IL-6, and IFN-γ(P<0.01or P<0.05), and IL-4 had an extremely significant positive correlation with IL-6(P<0.01). After CY injection, serum cytokine levels in mice decreased and immune function was inhibited. Compared with the control group, the experimental group recovered the level of cytokines to some extent. 0.1 g/kg RPFRE significantly increased the content of IL-2 in immunosuppressed mice(P<0.05), and 0.4 g/kg RPFRE significantly increased the content of IL-4, IL-6, and IFN-γ in immunosuppressed mice(P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the serum cytokines in immunosuppressed mice were significantly positively correlated with RPFRE concentration(P<0.01), and there was a certain dose dependence. Moreover, the correlation coefficient between IL-2 and IL-4, IL-6, and IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-6, and IL-6 and IFN-γ reached an extremely significant level(P<0.01). To sum up, RPFRE could improve the serum cytokines level of mice, promote the secretion of cytokines, and have a certain immune protective effect. There was a significant positive correlation between the RPFRE concentration and the serum cytokines in mice, which provided basic data support for the further study of RPFRE immune function.展开更多

[Method] KM male mice were randomly divided into 4 groups based on RPFRE gradient concentration, and the immune function indexes and antioxidant indexes of mice were determined at 14 d post intragastric administration of RPFRE.The remaining mice in the experimental group were intraperitoneally injected with cyclophosphamide(CY) from the 15^(th) to 17^(th) day, and samples were collected to determine the above indexes on the 18^(th) day. [Result] Intragastric administration of RPFRE for 14 d improved the spleen index,thymus index, T/B cell stimulation index and total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC) of normal mice, and extremely increased the thymus index and TAOC(P<0.01). The T-AOC had extremely positive correlation with the spleen index, thymus index and B cell stimulation index( P<0.01), and had significantly positive correlation with the T cell stimulation index(P<0.05). From the 15^(th) to 17^(th) day of the experiment, the immune function indexes and antioxidant indexes of mice decreased and the malondialdehyde(MDA) content increased. The experimental groups of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 g/kg RPFRE promoted the immunoprotection and antioxidant effect of mice. RPFRE concentration had extremely positive correlation with 4 indexes of immune function and antioxidant indexes T-AOC and SOD(P<0.01), but had extremely negative correlation with MDA(P<0.01). There was a significantly positive correlation between immune function indexes and antioxidant indexes of mice after CY intervention( P<0.05 or P<0.01). [Conclusion] RPFRE can improve the immune function indexes and antioxidant indexes of normal mice and immunosuppressed mice and has immunopro-tection effect on immunosuppressed mice, and there is a significant correlation between immune function indexes and antioxidant indexes of mice.展开更多
