“…The same feature was found in calves by Blättler et al (2001), Bittrich et al (2004), andSauter et al (2004). In this segment, in the first hours of goat kids' life it is possible to verify enterocytes containing vacuoles filled with colostrum and IgG immunostaining that are related with intense activity of IgG uptake during the passive acquisition period (Moretti et al, 2012a;Nordi et al, 2012). The enteric and absorptive capacity could be related with villus height, volume and density of the mucosa surface.…”

“…The development, absorption, and maturation of the gastrointestinal tract in the first days after birth is greatly influenced by colostrum intake (Bessi et al, 2002a, b;Moretti et al, 2010a, b;MachadoNeto et al, 2011;Nordi et al, 2012). In the present study the goat kids' intestinal histomorphometry was unaffected by different sources of colostrum, goat or lyophilized bovine.…”

“…These pathogens transmitted to the small ruminant cause health problems with consequent losses in animal performance and high rates of morbidity and mortality in the system production (Greenwood, 1995;Blacklaws et al, 2004;Peterhans et al, 2004). Thus, to prevent this problems and confer adequate passive immunity transfer, alternative methods of immunoglobulin G (IgG) supply to small ruminants, such as a bank of bovine colostrum (refrigerated, frozen) and artificial colostrum supply, have been evaluated (Argüello et al, 2004;Lima et al, 2009;Moretti et al, 2010a, b;Nordi et al, 2012;Moretti et al, 2012a, b).…”

“…The homology structure of immunoglobulins between the ruminants' species enables the substitution of goat maternal colostrum by bovine colostrum, providing adequate amounts of IgG to newborns. Additionally, this lacteal secretion is easy to obtain, it usually has high immune quality, allows storage for prolonged periods, and prevents the transmission of pathogens in the goat herd (Curtain and Fudenberg, 1973;Greenwood, 1995;Lima et al, 2009;Nordi et al, 2012;Moretti et al, 2012b).…”

Enteric histology of newborn goat kids fed lyophilized bovine colostrum (LBC) was studied. At 0, 7, and 14 h of life 15 male newborns received 5% of body weight of lyophilized bovine colostrum and 14 male newborns goat colostrum (GC), both with 55 mg/ml of IgG. Samples of duodenum, jejunum, and ileum were collected at 18, 36, and 96 h of life for analyses of villus height, crypt depth, muscle layer thickness, partial volume of the absorptive mucosa (Vv), density of the absorptive mucosa (Sv), and quantification of goblet cells. Three animals were sampled without colostrum intake (0 h). The histomorphometry was not different between GC and LBC in all segments. In the jejunum, the villus height differed in sampling times (36 h > 0 h and 18 h). The maximum villus height was observed in the jejunum. In the jejunum, crypt depth differed in the sampling times (96 h > 0 and 18 h). Interaction between intestinal segment and sampling times was observed to crypt depth (duodenum 18 h > jejunum 18 h and duodenum 96 h > ileum 96 h). In the ileum, the muscle layer thickness differed in the sampling times (36 h > 0 and 18 h and 96 h > 0 h). The greatest thickness of muscle layer was observed in the duodenum and at 96 h the muscle layer was thicker than at 18 h. The ileum showed the highest Vv at 36 h. The Vv was the highest in the jejunum and higher at 36 h than at 96 h. In the jejunum, an interaction between the treatment and sampling times to goblet cells number (LBC 18 h < GC 18 h and GC 96 h > LBC 96 h) was observed. The ileum showed the greatest number of goblet cells. The ingestion of lyophilized bovine colostrum did not determine any consequences for enteric histology in the first 4 days of goat kids' life.

“…One of the characteristics of the intestinal epithelium of ruminants in the first hours of life is the presence of enterocytes at different maturation stages (Jochims et al., ). During this period, a different kind of cell originates from the mitotic activity in the intestinal crypts, resulting in the renewal of the epithelium in two or three days after birth (Smeaton and Simpson‐Morgan, ; Skrzypek et al., ; Nordi et al., ). This new cell generation does not have the same characteristics of foetal enterocytes, such as the ability to absorb immunoglobulins, but they are capable of absorbing nutrients from the intestinal lumen (Smeaton and Simpson‐Morgan, ; Skrzypek et al., ; Nordi et al., ).…”

The objective of this study was to investigate the development of the enteric, hepatic and muscle tissues in goat kids fed with lyophilized bovine colostrum in the transition period of passive immunity to early active immunity. At 0, 7 and 14 h of life, 15 male newborns received 5% of their body weight of lyophilized bovine colostrum and 14 male newborns received goat colostrum, both with 55 mg/ml of IgG. Samples of the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, liver and muscle were collected at 18, 36 and 96 h of life to quantify total protein, DNA and RNA contents. In the jejunum and ileum, the highest levels of total protein and higher protein/RNA ratio were observed at 18 h (p < 0.05). There were no differences in DNA contents in any intestinal segment (p > 0.05). At 96 h, maximum levels of RNA were observed in the jejunum and ileum (p < 0.05) and higher RNA/DNA ratio in the three intestinal segments (p < 0.05), showing increased ability to synthesize intracellular RNA and proteins. The LBC group showed higher protein content and higher protein/DNA and protein/RNA ratios in the jejunum, a higher DNA content in the liver (p < 0.05) and a higher protein/RNA ratio in the muscle tissue (p < 0.05). In the muscle, higher protein and DNA levels were also found at 96 h (p < 0.05). Indicators of cellular activity suggest greater absorption of proteins from lyophilized bovine colostrum and increased cell maturity in the enteric and muscle tissues in the first hours of goat kids' life.

The object of this study was to describe the prenatal development and histochemical properties of mucins in the sheep gastrointestinal tract. To determine changes in the mucin profile, the sections were stained with specific histochemical stains for carbohydrates. While neutral and mixed mucins were observed in the superficial epithelial cells of the abomasal pyloric region, acidic mucins were detected in the secretory ducts and corpus of the glands. Acidic mucins consisted predominantly of sialomucins. In the duodenal villi, the number of goblet cells containing neutral mucins increased toward the end of gestation, whereas Brunner's glands contained acidic mucins until the 95th day of gestation and both acidic and neutral mucins thereafter. The jejunal goblet cells contained either acidic, neutral, or mixed mucins. Goblet cells containing acidic mucins, which were mainly localized to the ileal crypts and villi, mostly contained sulfated mucins. While villi were observed in the proximal colon until the 115th day of gestation, later the typical crypt structure emerged. During the period in which the villi were found in the proximal colon, the goblet cells containing sulphomucins were predominant, whereas the goblet cells containing sialomucins were predominant after the typical crypt structure was formed. In conclusion, gastrointestinal mucins may be involved in the formation of meconium during the prenatal period, and acidic mucins may contribute to the strength of the intestinal barrier against pathogens and digestive enzymes, as the barrier is not fully functional after birth.
