Cellular Events During Coccidial Infection in Chickens
… The results showed that upon Eimeria infection, LEAP2 was consistently downregulated in the target tissues, while the avian beta-defensins (AvBDs) showed many variations in expression patterns. Downregulation of LEAP2 may be a mechanism for Eimeria to combat the host defense system, and to …

Expression of Digestive Enzymes and Nutrient Transporters in the Intestine of Eimeria-challenged Chickens
… mineral transporter: ZNT1 and an immune factor: LEAP2 in the duodenum, jejunum, ileum and ceca of Eimeria-challenged layers and broilers. Comparisons were made between E. acervulina-challenged layers and broilers and E. acervulina, E. maxima and E. tenella-challenged broilers to examine the …

Effect of probiotics or high incubation temperature on gene expression and cell organization of the small intestine and yolk sac of chicks
… peptide (liver-enriched antimicrobial peptide 2, LEAP2) in the jejunum at day 4. Probiotic 1 decreased PepT1, a marker of enterocytes in the duodenum at day 4. These results suggest that probiotics did not improve growth performance and intestinal morphology in young healthy chicks, but …

Temporal and Tissue Specific Changes in Expression of Nutrient Transporters and Host Defense Peptides in Young Broilers during Salmonella and Campylobacter infections
… group compared to the control. Early changes in LEAP2 mRNA abundance were observed in the 106 group than the 107 and 108 groups. However, at a later time point post challenge, a lower abundance of almost all AvBD mRNA (P<0.05) was observed in the lower gastrointestinal tract especially in the 107 …

In ovo and feed application of probiotics or synbiotics and response of broiler chicks to post-hatch necrotic enteritis
… mRNA abundance of D14 TLR2, D14 TNF-α, and D42 LEAP2 in cecal tonsils compared to controls. PI+ increased mRNA abundance of D7 and D42 MUC2, D7 LEAP2, and D42 TNF-α in the ileum. PI+ increased mRNA abundance in the cecal tonsils of D7 TLR2 and D42 TNF-α. These studies yielded interesting results …
