Jejunum FABP6 expression and potential mechanism response to Salmonella Pullorum inoculation revealed by proteomic profiling and RT-PCR in Chinese Taihe black-bone silky fowls

Key Points

• FABP6 expression increased in jejunal tissue after Salmonella Pullorum inoculation, indicating a potential immune response.
• Proteomic profiling identified significant changes in protein levels, supporting the role of FABP6 in the immune mechanism.
• Assessment using RT-PCR confirmed heightened FABP6 levels post inoculation, reinforcing findings from proteomic analysis.
• This work may enhance understanding of avian responses to Salmonella, guiding future research and poultry health strategies.
