From: Modulations of genes related to gut integrity, apoptosis, and immunity underlie the beneficial effects of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CECT 5940 in broilers fed diets with different protein levels in a necrotic enteritis challenge model

Effect of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CECT 5490 (1.0 × 106 CFU/g of feed) (BA) on two apoptosis related genes at day 16. (a-b) Effect of NE challenge and BA supplementation on caspase-3 (CASP3) and caspase-8 (CASP8) expression; (c-d) Effect of crude protein (CP) level and BA supplementation on CASP3 and CASP8 expression. Non: non-challenged; NE: NE challenged; SCP: Standard protein diet; RCP: Reduced protein diet RCP: Reduced protein diets (2% lower than standard diets). Genes used as reference genes were HMBS and YWHAZ. Error bars show SEM for 8 replicates for each treatment
