Growth performance, mucosal immunity and disease resistance in goldfish (Carassius auratus) orally administered with Escherichia coli Strain Nissle 1917.

The current research aimed to shed light on the efficacy of Escherichia coli strain Nissle 1917 (EcN) on goldfish (……) growth, gut immunity, morphology, bacterial nutritional enzyme activity and resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila infection. Fish fed with EcN at 10, 10 and 10 CFU/g feed for 80 days showed an enhancement in growth better than control fish. The gut innate immunity in terms of lysozyme activity, immunoglobulin and total protein levels was increased in the treatment fish with the best result being observed in fish fed EcN at 10 CFU/ g.

The current study was performed to evaluate the protective effects of strain Nissle 1917 (EcN) against As exposure in goldfish (). Fish were fed three times a day with 4.

Efficacy of dietary live or heat-killed Bacillus subtilis in goldfish (Carassius auratus) infected with Ichthyophthirius multifiliis.

Background: The beneficial effects of Bacillus subtilis on growth, immune response, and disease resistance against various diseases in different fish species have been proved. However, there are no data concerning this probiotic effect on skin mucosal immunity in fish infected with Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ich). Ich has a high mortality rate in both edible and ornamental fish and consequently is concerned with heavy economic losses.

Suppression of the malignancy of mammary tumor in mice model by inactivated preparation of .

Breast cancer (BC) is a significant cause of global mortality in women. This study was aimed to evaluate the immune-activation of malignant BC via the administration of attenuated . For this purpose, an model was developed with BALB/c mice.

The effects of heat-killed on intestinal morphology and humoral immune responses of broiler chickens.

Background And Objectives: species are Gram-positive rods that exist in a broad range of environments. In this study, the efficacy of heat-killed on growth performance, intestinal morphology, and humoral immune responses of broiler chicken was evaluated.

Materials And Methods: Ross broiler chicks in the cage were randomly allocated to five groups.

The Beneficial Effects of Immune Modulators in the Pancreas of Diabetic Rats.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) has dramatically increased in recent years, especially in young people, and limits the life quality of the patients involved. Thus, many researchers are performing extensive studies to find alternative treatments for DM. Here, we evaluated the improvement effects of the heat-killed species, including , and in streptozotocin (STZ)- diabetic rats by biochemical, immunological, and histopathological examinations.

Treatment of mixed dairy and dye wastewater in anode of microbial fuel cell with simultaneous electricity generation.

Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a green technology that converts the stored chemical energy of organic matter to electricity; therefore, it can be used for wastewater purification and energy production simultaneously. In this study, three kinds of dairy products, including milk, cheese water, and yogurt water, were mixed with Acid orange 7 (AO7) as the model wastewater and used as the anolyte of an MFC. The capability of the system in energy production and dye removal was also investigated.

Immune enhancing effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus on Newcastle disease vaccination in chickens.

Introduction And Purpose: Despite the various vaccination programs for protection against New Castle disease, it remains an important threat to the poultry industry. The ability of the probiotic bacteria to improve the immune system in both animals and humans supports their use as immune adjuvants for vaccination. The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus in ND vaccination.

miR-330 Regulates Colorectal Cancer Oncogenesis by Targeting BACH1.

Based on WHO report, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second cause of death among patients with cancer worldwide. Dysregulation of miRNAs expressions has been demonstrated in different human cancers, especially CRC. Studies have shown that miR-330 could act as both TS-miR and/or oncomiR in different types of cancers.

Beneficial effects of killed Tsukamurella inchonensis on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) growth, intestinal histology, immunological, and biochemical parameters.

Present study was conducted to investigate the effects of heat-killed Tsukamurella inchonensis on growth performance, gastrointestinal structure, immune response, and biochemical parameters in rainbow trout. Fish (mean weight 25 g) were fed basal diet (control), diets containing 2.48 × 10 colony-forming units (low-dose group) or 1.

Influence of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields on growth performance, innate immune response, biochemical parameters and disease resistance in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss.

The effects of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields on rainbow trout growth performance, innate immunity and biochemical parameters were studied. Rainbow trout (17-18 g) were exposed to electromagnetic fields (15 Hz) at 0.01, 0.

Green tea (Camellia sinensis) administration induces expression of immune relevant genes and biochemical parameters in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).

Present study elucidates the efficacy of green tea (Camellia sinensis) on growth performance, immune and antioxidant systems and cytokine gene expression in rainbow trout tissues. Green tea was supplemented at 20, 100, and 500 mg kg(-1) diet and fed to fish (average weight: 23.5 g) for 35 days.

Hilyses®, fermented Saccharomyces cerevisiae, enhances the growth performance and skin non-specific immune parameters in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).

Effects of Hilyses(®), fermented Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae), on growth, body composition and skin mucus immune components in rainbow trout were quantified. Ninety rainbow trout (105 ± 5 g) were randomly assigned to 2 groups in triplicates and fed dietary Hilyses(®) (5 g kg(-1)) or control diet without Hilyses(®) for 50 days.

Effects of dietary Ergosan on cutaneous mucosal immune response in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss).

The effects of dietary Ergosan on the growth performance and mucosal immunity in rainbow trout skin were investigated. 60 rainbow trout (100-110 g) were randomly assigned to 2 groups in triplicates and fed one of the experimental diet formulated with 5 g kg⁻¹ Ergosan or control diet for 50 days. Results showed that on the 45th day of feeding trial, Ergosan supplementation significantly enhanced the growth performance compared to control group.
