Abstract
AbstractThe effect of the probiotic Shewanella putrefaciens Pdp11 (SpPdp11) was studied on the skin healing of experimentally wounded gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L.). Two replicates (n = 12) of fish were fed CON diet or SP diet for 30 days. Half of the fish were sampled while the others were injured and sampled 7 days post-wounding. Results by image analysis of wound areas showed that SpPdp11 inclusion facilitated wound closure. Compared with the CON group, fish in SP group sampled 7 days post-wounding had a significantly decreased serum AST and increased ALB/GLOB ratio. Furthermore, protease and peroxidase activities were significantly increased in skin mucus from fish in SP group sampled 7 days post-wounding, compared with those fed CON diet. Additionally, SP diet up-regulated the gene expression of antioxidant enzymes, anti-inflammatory cytokines, and re-epithelialization related genes in the fish skin. Furthermore, significant decreases in pro-inflammatory cytokines expression were detected in fish from SP group, respect to control ones. Overall, SpPdp11 inclusion facilitated the wound healing and the re-epithelialization of the damaged skin, alleviated the inflammatory response in the wound area through intensifying the antioxidant system, and enhancing the neo-vascularization and the synthesis of matrix proteins in the skin wound sites of fish.
