Dietary Clostridium butyricum supplementation modifies significantly the liver transcriptomic profile in weaned piglets

Abstract: The addition of probiotics in swine nutrition is known to positively influence both health and growth. The current study investigates differences in the hepatic transcriptome profiles between weaned piglets supplemented with Clostridium butyricum (C. butyricum) and control animals that received no probiotic. The liver is an important metabolic organ that plays a critical role in oxidizing triglycerides for energy production, lipid synthesis and degradation, as well as immune regulation in animals.

“…Increasing evidences suggest the opinion that probiotics can enhance animal growth [ 43 – 45 ]. The application of C. butyricum as a feed additive in animals has been widely proven [ 14 , 20 , 46 , 47 ]. However, there is a shortage of information on the microbial community and the metabolic profile, after the addition with C. butyricum in the feed in weaned piglets.…”

“…In the United States of America, antibiotics cannot be used as growth promoters, restricted only for disease treatments with veterinarian accompaniment, as stated by the Food and Drug Administration committee in 2005 ( Wallinga et al, 2022 ). In addition, the prophylactic use of antibiotics in meat production has been banned since 2020 in China ( Qiao et al, 2020 ). Reducing antibiotics in meat production is particularly important because SH isolates resistant to β-lactam antimicrobials, which are valuable in human and veterinary medicine, were isolated from human, broilers, and poultry meat sources.…”

“…Antibiotics have been banned in the E.U., resulting in a rise in broiler disease outbreaks in European countries. Prophylactic use of all antibiotics in food animals has been banned in China since the end of 2020 ( Qiao et al, 2020 ). For the prevention of infectious illness in broilers, the poultry industry requires alternative substances to minimize or replace antibiotic growth boosters.…”
