          Abstract

          <p class="first" id="d486941e77">Feeding high-fiber diets decreases cost, but also caloric and nutritional efficiency by modifying intestinal morphology and function. We analyzed the changes in intestinal cell composition, nutrient transporters and receptors, and cell differentiation induced by fibers from different sources. Forty-six finishing pigs (BW 84 ± 7 kg) were fed 1 of 4 diets: corn-soybean (Control; = 12), 23% wheat straw (WS; = 11), 55% corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS; = 11), and 30% soybean hulls (SBH; = 12). Pigs were fed 2 meals daily to an amount equivalent to 2.5% of initial BW for 14 d in metabolism cages. Ilea were collected for histological and gene expression analysis after euthanasia. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn's multiple comparisons and differences considered significant when &lt; 0.05. The enterocyte marker was increased ( &lt; 0.03) by feeding SBH compared with Control and WS diets. Goblet cells presence was greater ( &lt; 0.01) in pigs fed WS and DDGS compared with Control, and in pigs fed WS compared with SBH ( = 0.02). expression was greater ( &lt; 0.05) in pigs fed DDGS and SBH compared with Control diet. No changes were observed for endocrine and Paneth cells markers, villus and crypt length, or proliferation index. Compared with the Control, gene expression of receptors for oligopeptides, calcium, glucose, fructose, , and and was increased ( &lt; 0.05) by feeding WS and DDGS diets. Feeding SBH diet repressed ( &lt; 0.005) the compared with WS and DDGS diets, while DDGS repressed ( = 0.02) its expression compared with Control. Pigs fed DDGS had reduced ( &lt; 0.001) , and those fed SBH showed increased ( &lt; 0.05) expression compared with WS and DDGS pigs. Feeding WS and DDGS diets induced ( &lt; 0.01) the expression of stem cell marker r-spondin receptor (, while was reduced ( &lt; 0.02) by feeding DDGS compared with Control. The expression of was induced ( &lt; 0.05) by all fibers compared with Control. Transcription factors and were suppressed ( &lt; 0.001) by WS and DDGS compared with Control. In conclusion, feeding diets containing WS and DDGS modulated intestinal differentiation by promoting goblet cells and altered expression of nutrient receptors and transporters in growing pigs, while feeding SBH had less effect. </p>
