[en] Alginate oligosaccharides (AOSs), which are an attractive feed additive for animal production, exhibit pleiotropic bioactivities. In the present study, we investigated graded doses of AOS-mediated alterations in the physiological responses of piglets by determining the intestinal architecture, barrier function, and microbiota. A total of 144 weaned piglets were allocated into four dietary treatments in a completely random design, which included a control diet (CON) and three treated diets formulated with 250 mg/kg (AOS250), 500 mg/kg (AOS500), and 1000 mg/kg AOS (AOS1000), respectively. The trial was carried out for 28 days. Our results showed that AOS treatment reinforced the intestinal barrier function by increasing the ileal villus height, density, and fold, as well as the expression of tight junction proteins, especially at the dose of 500 mg/kg AOS. Meanwhile, supplementations with AOSs showed positive effects on enhancing antioxidant capacity and alleviating intestinal inflammation by elevating the levels of antioxidant enzymes and inhibiting excessive inflammatory cytokines. The DESeq2 analysis showed that AOS supplementation inhibited the growth of harmful bacteria Helicobacter and Escherichia_Shigella and enhanced the relative abundance of Faecalibacterium and Veillonella. Collectively, these findings suggested that AOSs have beneficial effects on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, and gut health in piglets.
