--- The present study had as objectives to determine and compare the levels of relative expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) of IgA in intestinal epithelium of newborn alpaca healthy and sick with enteropathy until 45 days old. Surveyed 70 animals: 35 sick and 35 healthy; 5 pups before the consumption of colostrum and 5 for each week of age until the sixth week. The samples consisted in 2 cm of length of the jejunum, which was immediately preserved in liquid nitrogen (- 196°C). The extraction was conducted with Trizol®, then was synthesized complementary DNA (cDNA). Subsequently, it was made the conventional PCR and real time RT - PCR using oligonucleotides designed for detecting the exon 1 of the Fc IgA region of alpaca. The quantification of the relative expression was made through normalization with the GAPDH gene mRNA and the relative expression calculations were conducted using method 2-ΔΔCt. It was identified and demonstrated through the real time RT - PCR technique that alpacas encoded and transcribed mRNA of exon 1 of the IgA Fc region from the first day of age, but not at the birth; being it relative expression detected and produced in intestinal epithelium of newborn alpaca from a day of age, both in healthy animals as sick. Healthy animals have a tendency of constant expression of mRNA of IgA until the fourth week of age, with slightly decrease in the subsequent weeks, whereas in enteric diseases IgA mRNA production is always superior than the expressed by the healthy animals, having significant differences (p < 0.05) between the two groups (healthy 38.8 and sick 113 times respectively, with regard to the calibrator), from the first to the sixth week of age. Key words: South American camelids, intestinal mucosal immunity, immunoglobulin A, real time RT –PCR, relative quantification.
