摘要： Fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome is a widespread metabolic disease in laying hens that decreases egg production and even causes death in severe cases. Many traditional Chinese medicine ingredients, such as saikosaponin a (SSa), have been shown to alleviate fatty liver, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to explore the alleviation of dietary SSa on excessive hepatic lipid deposition and the interactions between intestinal microbiota and bile acid (BA) in laying hens. Fifty-four 35-wk-old laying hens were randomly allocated into 3 treatment groups with 6 replicates (3 birds per replicate) and fed with a basal diet (CON), high-energy and low-protein diet (HELP), and HELP diet with 30 mg/kg SSa (HELP + SSa). SSa reversed diet-induced egg production rate decrease (P < 0.05). SSa could potently ameliorate HELP-induced accumulation of hepatic cholesterol and liver injury via the increase (P < 0.05) of mRNA expression of BA synthesis gene, such as cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase 1. SSa treatment alleviated gut dysbiosis, especially reducing (P < 0.05) the relative abundance of bile salt hydrolase (BSH)-producing bacteria such as Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, and Turicibacter. Ileal BA metabolomic analysis revealed that SSa increased (P < 0.05) the content of tauro-conjugated BAs, mainly taurochenodeoxycholic acid and tauro-a-muricholic acid. The mRNA expression of farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and fibroblast growth factor 19 were decreased (P < 0.05) in intestine, which was associated with increased gene expression of enzymes in the BA synthesis that reduced the levels of cholesterol. Moreover, SSa treatment inhibited intestinal BA reabsorption via decreasing (P < 0.05) the mRNA expression of apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter. Our findings indicated that SSa reduced liver cholesterol accumulation and alleviated fatty liver in laying hens through microbiota-BA-intestinal FXR crosstalk.
