To understand the efficacy of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) as probiotics on the growth, immune response and intestinal microbiota of turbot Scophthalmus maximus, in this study, the Leuconostoc mesenteroides HY2 strain screened from wide caught fish was bath administrated for juvenile turbot with no bacteria administrated as control. The mRNA levels of toll-like receptors 3 (TLR3), interleukin 8 (IL-8) and interferon induced with helicase C domain 1 (IFIH1) in different organs (i.e. intestine, liver, spleen, kidney, brain and skin) were analyzed using RT-PCR technology. The intestinal microbiota was analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing, in which principal co-ordinates analysis (PCoA) as well as cluster analysis was performed. The results showed that the specific growth rate of turbot in the LAB treatment was significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The expression levels of TLR3, IL-8 and IFIH1 were significantly up-regulated in the organs of LAB treatment, except that IL-8 was slightly down-regulated in kidney. A total of 42 phyla in intestinal microbiota were identified. The composition of intestinal microbiota showed significant differences between LAB treatment and the control group. Shannon index in the LAB treatment was significantly increased while Simpson index significantly declined. The PCoA and cluster analysis exhibited significant differences in the composition and abundance between the two groups. Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria acted as biomarkers which may have effects to promote absorption and/or trigger the immune function. In conclusion, the administration of HY2 strain was capable of improving growth performance of turbot by enhancing immune response and optimizing structure and diversity of intestinal microbiota.
