Abstract

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of Lactobacillus delbrueckii (L. delbrueckii) on the immune and antioxidant indexes in skin mucous and the antimicrobial peptide gene expression in skin of Cyprinus carpio Huanghe var. A total of 450 Cyprinus carpio Huanghe var. with the initial body weight of (15.0±0.5) g were randomly distributed into five groups with three replicates per group and 30 fish per replicate. The fish in those five groups fed diets containing 0 (control group), 1×105, 1×106, 1×107 and 1×108 CFU/g L. delbrueckii, respectively, for 8 weeks. At the end of feeding trail, the skin mucous and skin were collected, and the immune and antioxidant indexes in the skin mucous and the relative expression levels of antimicrobial peptide genes including liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide-1 (Leap-1) and liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide-2 (Leap-2) in the skin were determined. The results showed that the activities of lysozyme (LYZ), alkaline phosphatase (AKP), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the contents of complement 3 (C3) and complement 4 (C4) in skin mucous of the 1×106 and 1×107 CFU/g L. delbrueckii groups were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05), while the malondialdehyde (MDA) content in skin mucous of the 1×106 and 1×107 CFU/g L. delbrueckii groups was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences of above parameters between the 1×105 or 1×108 CFU/g L. delbrueckii groups and the control group (P>0.05). No significant difference was found in the acid phosphatase (ACP) activity in skin mucous among groups (P>0.05). The activities of catalase (CAT) and glutathion peroxidase (GPx) in skin mucous of the 1×106 CFU/g L. delbrueckii group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05), and the total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) in skin mucous of the 1×105, 1×106 and 1×107 CFU/g L. delbrueckii groups was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). In addition, the relative expression levels of antimicrobial peptide genes Leap-1 and Leap-2 in skin of all experimental groups were significantly up-regulated compared with the control group (P<0.05), and highest values were all found in the 1×107 CFU/g L. delbrueckii group. Those results demonstrate that diet supplemented with 1×106 to 1×107 CFU/g L. delbrueckii can enhance the immunity, antioxidant capability and Leap-1 and Leap-2 gene expression in skin of Cyprinus carpio Huanghe var.
