ÖZET
Süt sığırlarında ketozis, asidoz gibi verimliliği olumsuz etkileyen çeşitli stres faktörleri vardır. Bu faktörler, geçirgen bağırsak sendromuna neden olabilmektedir. Bağırsak, karmaşık ve sürekli değişen ortamı kalıcı olarak algılayan, işleyen ve ona tepki veren bir duyu organıdır. Bağırsak bir bariyer ve endokrin organ olmasının yanı sıra birincil lenfoid organdır. İntestinal sistem zararlı etkenlere karşı bariyer görevi görürken, besin maddelerinin ve diğer bileşiklerin seçici emilimini içeren birçok hayati fonksiyona sahiptir. Bağırsak duvarını koruyan fiziksel ve kimyasal olmak üzere 2 tür bariyer vardır. Fiziksel bariyerler, bağırsak mukozasını kaplayan goblet hücreleri tarafından salgılanan viskoz bir mukustan oluşur. Kimyasal bariyer ise bu mukus tabakası içerisinde bulunur. Mukus tabakası içinde, epitelde paneth hücreleri tarafından üretilen antimikrobiyal peptidler ve rejenere adacık kaynaklı 3 (Reg3) molekülü bulunur. Kimyasal bariyer molekülleri, bağırsak mikroorganizmalarının parçalanmasını ve bağırsak duvarına nüfuz etmesini engellemek için çalışır. Bağırsak yüzeyinde bariyer görevi gören başka faktörler de vardır. Bunlar, mukoza yüzeyindeki sıkı bağlantı odaklarını oluşturan fosfolipidler, proteinler ve lenfositlerin de dâhil olduğu bağırsak immün sistemi ve bağırsak mikrobiyotasıdır. Bağırsak bariyerinin bozulmasıyla birlikte lipopolisakkaridlerin kana geçmesi istenmeyen sonuçlara sebep olmaktadır. Bu stres faktörlerini önlemede besleme ön plana çıkmaktadır. Bu derlemede, geçirgen bağırsak sendromu ve bu sendroma sebep olan etkenleri önlemeye dair bilgi verilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Stres faktörleri; besleme; geçirgen bağırsak sendromu; süt sığırı
ABSTRACT
Various stress factors adversely affect productivity, such as ketosis and acidosis in dairy cattle. These factors can cause leaky gut syndrome. The gut is a sensory organ that permanently perceives, processes and responds to the complex and ever-changing environment. In addition to being a barrier and endocrine organ, the intestine is the primary lymphoid organ. While the intestinal tract acts as a barrier against harmful agents, it has many vital functions, including selective absorption of nutrients and other compounds. Two types of barriers, physical and chemical, protect the intestinal wall. Physical barriers consist of a viscous mucus secreted by the goblet cells lining the intestinal mucosa. The chemical barrier is found in this mucus layer. Within the mucus layer are antimicrobial peptides produced by paneth cells in the epithelium and 3 (Reg3) molecules from regenerated islets. Chemical barrier molecules prevent intestinal microorganisms from breaking down and penetrating the intestinal wall. Other factors act as a barrier on the intestinal surface. These are the intestinal immune system and microbiota, including the phospholipids, proteins and lymphocytes forming tight junctional foci on the mucosal surface. With the deterioration of the intestinal barrier, the passage of lipopolysaccharides into the blood causes undesirable results. Nutrition comes to the fore in preventing these stress factors. This review aims to give information about leaky gut syndrome and the prevention of factors causing it.
