Abstract

Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) is composed by dimeric IgA which connected by J chain and secretory component (SC). SIgA antibodies have some important physiological functions in intestinal mucosal immunity such as maintaining stabilization of intestinal mucosal homeostasis, regulating endogenous microecology, blocking pathogen attachment to epithelial cell receptors and directly decreasing bacterial virulence and immune exclusion, thus inhibiting the spread of pathogens and further infection. Under the condition of pathogens or stress, nutritional factors such as fatty acids, amino acids and vitamins might significantly promote the secretion of intestinal SIgA, increase the body's resistance ability to pathogens, and improve the performance of the animals.
