Steering immune responses using nutritional interventions: should it be pro-...

Tue, 02 Jul 2019 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Prof Adrian SMITH, Oxford, UK

How can we analyze nutritional interventions? Assessing effects of manipulations requires measurements of lots of parameters, applying multiple methods (immunology, histology, sequencing…), employing both experimental and field systems (germ-free, genetics, specific pathogens…). We deal with a complex moving target!

Speaker: Marianne Chemaly (ANSES) et Julie Mayot (FIA).

JRA 2019 - 13th Poultry Research Days, Tours, France

The first day focuses on reviews from academic and professionals to address common topics for the poultry industry: consumer expectations, proteins, antibiotic usage, welfare, campylobacter and economy.

More scientific update on nutrition, health, genetic, quality and sustainability are available in the proceedings.

Microbiota is necessary for the development of Immune system

Tue, 23 Oct 2018 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Prof Bernd KASPERS, Inst Vet Medicine, Univ Munich, Germany

The gut immune system (lymphocytes B and C, macrophages, dendritic cells…) is the largest immune tissue in the body and is the first to have to deal with pathogens and other ingested xenobiotics. A diverse and well-developed microbiota is necessary for the development of an efficient immune reaction avoiding inflammation response. But immune system is also involved in controlling intestinal microbiota.

Intestinal functionality: the dichotomy between nutrient and barrier function

Wed, 26 Sep 2018 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Prof Todd APPLEGATE, Poult Sci Dept, Univ Georgia, USA

The gut is adaptive and responds to ingredient matrix and bacterial environment. But these responses can alter endogenous maintenance as well as nutrient and energy digestibility. The gut response to pathogens depends on their amount, their virulence and of predisposing factors (e.g. cocci, mucin type, etc.). Gut immunological responses may vary nutrient “needs” with changes in tissue maintenance needs and nutrient use efficiencies.

Speaker: Prof Filip VAN IMMERSEEL, Vet Medicine, Ghent Univ, Belgium

Mucosa-associated bacterial communities are important for gut health. Butyrate-producing bacteria seem essential. Feeding strategies (eg prebiotics such as AXOS, probiotics) can steer towards butyrogenic (mucosa-associated) taxa in the gut. Biomarkers of the host response are important tools for the development of future efficient gut health solution. Butyrate, even from dietary origin, seems to have potency to reduce effect of pathogens in the intestine.
