Rapid fermentable substance modulates interactions between ruminal commensals and toll-like receptors in promotion of immune tolerance of goat rumen

Whether dietary non-fiber carbohydrate (NFC), a rapid fermentable substance, affects immune homeostasis of rumen through the modulation of interactions of ruminal microbiota and epithelial toll-like receptors (TLRs) remains unclear. A combination of 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and quantitative PCRs...
