Poult Sci 2024; 103:104015. [PMID: 39003797 PMCID: PMC11298935 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2024.104015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
High-laying ducks are often fed high-energy, nutritious feeds to maintain high productivity, which predisposes them to lipid metabolism disorders and the development of fatty liver syndrome (FLS), which seriously affects production performance and has a substantial economic impact on the poultry industry. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the development of fatty liver syndrome. In this study, seven Shan Partridge ducks, each with fatty liver syndrome and normal laying ducks, were selected, and Hematoxylin Eosin staining (HE staining), Masson staining, and transcriptome sequencing were performed on liver tissue. In addition to exploring key genes and pathways using conventional analysis methods, we constructed the first Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database-based predefined gene set containing 12,764 pathways and 16,836 genes and further performed gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) on the liver transcriptome data. Finally, key nodes and biological processes were identified via the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. The results showed that the liver in the FL group exhibited steatosis and fibrosis, and a total of 3,663 genes with upregulated expression versus 2,296 downregulated genes were screened by conventional analysis. GSEA analysis and PPI network analysis revealed that the liver in the FL group exhibited disruption of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, leading to decreased oxidative phosphorylation and the secretion of excessive proinflammatory factors amid the continuous accumulation of lipids. Under continuous chronic inflammation, cell cycle arrest triggers apoptosis, while fibrosis becomes more severe, and procarcinogenic genes are activated, leading to the continuous development and deterioration of the liver. In conclusion, the predefined gene set constructed in this study can be used for GSEA, and the identified hub genes provide useful reference data and a solid foundation for the study of the genetic regulatory mechanism of fatty liver syndrome in ducks.

A Molecular Switch-Integrated Nanoplatform Enables Photo-Unlocked Antibacterial Drug Delivery for Synergistic Abscess Therapy. Adv Healthc Mater 2023; 12:e2301157. [PMID: 37392145 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202301157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/29/2023] [Indexed: 07/03/2023]
Abstract
Drug delivery systems (DDSs) capable of sequential multistage drug release are urgently needed for antibacterial applications. Herein, a molecular switch-integrated, photo-responsive nanoplatform is reported based on hollow mesoporous silica nanospheres (HMSN) loaded with silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), vancomycin (Van), and hemin (HAVH) for bacteria elimination and abscess therapy. Upon near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, the molecular switch, hemin, can effuse from the mesopores of HMSN, triggering the release of pre-loaded Ag+ and Van, which enables photothermal-modulated drug release and synergistic photothermal-chemo therapy (PTT-CHT). The HAVH_NIR irreversibly disrupts the bacterial cell membrane, facilitating the penetration of Ag+ and Van. It is found that these compounds restrain the transcription and translation of ribosomes and lead to rapid bacterial death. Furthermore, hemin can effectively inhibit excessive inflammatory responses associated with the treatment, promoting accelerated wound healing in a murine abscess model. This work presents a new strategy for antibacterial drug delivery with high controllability and extendibility, which may benefit the development of smart multifunctional nanomedicine for diseases not limited to bacterial infections.

Abstract
Hemocyanin in crustaceans is an allergen for humans. However, little information was available on its molecular, structural and allergenic properties. In this study, the purified natural protein was identified as Eriocheir sinensis HC by LC-MS/MS, which was allergenic because its reaction with the serum IgE of crustacean patients. Results of the molecular properties showed that, HC was resistant to trypsin digestion, but not a heat-stable protein. Boiling (55.05 ± 3.50 %) and steaming (66.84 ± 1.65 %) induced an increase in β-sheet and decreased allergenicity of HC. By comparing the amino acid sequences of eight crustaceans, HC was found to be highly conserved. Five epitopes of HC were identified and validated by murine sensitization model, and two of them (P3 and P10) were exactly as the predicted by six types of bioinformatics. Multiple bioinformatics analysis combining with murine sensitization model seemed to be effective way for identification of allergenic epitopes.

Abstract
As a novel functional protein, juxtaposed with another zinc finger protein 1 (JAZF1) can regulate the growth and apoptosis through various pathways, and maintain the body's normal physiological metabolism. To explore the important role of JAZF1 in broiler ascites syndrome (BAS), we analysed the expression and distribution of the protein in poultry and mammal tissues based on the prepared polyclonal antibody. In this study, the recombinant plasmid PET32a-JAZF1 was constructed by TA cloning, subcloning and other technical methods, and the fusion protein His-JAZF1 was successfully expressed. After purification, His-JAZF1 was used as the antigen to prepare high-quality chicken-derived antibodies. Subsequently, the results showed that JAZF1 protein in broiler tissues could be specifically recognized by this antibody. Immunofluorescence showed that JAZF1 protein mainly exists in the cytoplasm of pulmonary artery, liver, kidney, heart and lung tissue cells of various animals. The expression of this protein was more obvious in broiler and duck tissues than in mammalian tissues. In addition, western blotting combined with immunofluorescence showed that BAS caused a significant decrease in JAZF1 protein in tissue cells. This effect further indicated that JAZF1 protein was closely related to the occurrence of BAS and provided a new entry point for the functional study of JAZF1 protein.
