Overview

Review uncovers Eimeria-driven gut dysbiosis and probiotic-mediated barrier protection in chickens, highlighting potential strategies for antibiotic-free poultry production.

Key Points

Synthesize current evidence on Eimeria-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis, intestinal barrier injury, and the mechanisms of probiotic interventions to control avian coccidiosis.
Narrative synthesis of recent literature mapping host-pathogen-microbiome dynamics across five dimensions: Eimeria species, intestinal site specificity, post-infection timing, probiotic strain functionality, and poultry production translation.
Evaluation of mechanisms involving epithelial disruption, secondary bacterial infections, microbial metabolism, and mucosal immune responses.
Eimeria infection disrupts epithelial integrity and drives site-specific, temporally dynamic gut microbiota dysbiosis, exacerbating mucosal inflammation and secondary bacterial risk.
Targeted probiotic strains mitigate coccidiosis by reconstructing microbial community structure, strengthening mucosal barrier function, and enhancing poultry growth performance in the absence of antibiotics.
