To observe the protective effect of Chitosan ? Gentamicin conjugate(CS ? GT)on Dextran Sulfate Sodium(DSS)? induced colitis in mice. Thirty healthy SPF male C57BL / 6J mice were randomly divided into 5 groups:Control group,DSS group and low,medium and high dose CS?GT group. Taking daily clinical observation and recording of mice activity,diet,body weight and fecal occult blood. All animal were euthanized and blood,colon tissues were collected on the 14th day. The changes of intestinal mucosal,the concentration of serum biochemical indexes and inflammatory factors were determined by optical microscope,biochemical analyzer,and ELISA,respectively. The results showed that compared to the control group,the body weight,and colon length were decreased in DSS?treated mice(P<0.01). Meanwhile,we observed serious bloody stool and intestinal villus dropped in this animal. The concentration of serum ALB and TP significantly decreased(P<0.01),as well as the decrease of anti? inflammatory factors IL?4 and IL?13. But the concentration of pro?inflammatory factor IL?6 was significantly increased (P<0.01). Compared with DSS group,the body weight and colon length of mice in medium and high dose CS?GT groups were significantly increased(P<0.05),the bleeding was improved,and the level of serum ALB and TP increased significantly(P<0.05). The expression level of pro?inflammatory factor IL?6 decreased significantly(P< 0.05),and the anti?inflammatory factors IL?4 and IL?13 trend to increase trendy. Our results suggested that CS?GT has a significant protective effect on DSS?induced colitis in mice and is valuable to development as a functional feed additive for animal intestinal protection.
