The effect of a dietary probiotic blend on the carbohydrate composition of mucins secreted by the Brunner's glands in the duodenum of growing-finishing pigs was investigated by means of conventional (periodic acid-Schiff, Alcian Blue pH 2.5, high iron diamine staining) and lectin (15 lectins) histochemistry. Pigs were assigned to two dietary treatments: a control basal diet without the probiotic blend (No-Pro) and a test diet that included the probiotic blend (Pro). Duodenal tissue fragments were fixed in 4% phosphate-buffered-saline-buffered paraformaldehyde, dehydrated through a graded alcohol series, and embedded in paraffin wax. The secretory cells of the Brunner's glands from No-Pro pigs primarily produced neutral glycoproteins and a small amount of acidic non-sulphated mucins. This glycan pattern was opposite that of the Brunner's glands from Pro animals. A comparison of lectin-binding profiles of the secretory cells of Brunner's glands in these two groups showed that in Pro pigs, there was (i) a decrease in N-linked glycans containing α1,2-linked fucose (Con A, UEA I); (ii) a loss of complex types of N-glycans (PHA-L, PHA-E) terminating with lactosamine (RCA120), α1,6- and α1,3-linked fucose (LTA), and α-galactose (GSA I-B4), as well as of O-glycans with terminal Galβ1,3GalNAc (PNA); and (iii) an increase in O-glycans containing GalNAc HPA. No-Pro and Pro samples showed no change in the expression of α2,6 sialoglycans and terminal GlcNAc residues and no affinity for MAL II, DBA, and SBA. These results indicate that probiotic supplementation affects the glycan composition of mucins produced in the Brunner's glands of growing-finishing pigs. These changes could effectively act on the gastrointestinal function and health status of these animals because the probiotic blend induced higher growth performance and meat quality in the test probiotic group than it did in the control basal diet group (Tufarelli et al., 2017).
