Liu Y, Wang Y, Zheng SJ. Immune Evasion of Mycoplasma gallisepticum: An Overview. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2824. [PMID: 38474071 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25052824] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Mycoplasma gallisepticum is one of the smallest self-replicating organisms. It causes chronic respiratory disease, leading to significant economic losses in poultry industry. Following M. gallisepticum invasion, the pathogen can persist in the host owing to its immune evasion, resulting in long-term chronic infection. The strategies of immune evasion by mycoplasmas are very complex and recent research has unraveled these sophisticated mechanisms. The antigens of M. gallisepticum exhibit high-frequency changes in size and expression cycle, allowing them to evade the activation of the host humoral immune response. M. gallisepticum can invade non-phagocytic chicken cells and also regulate microRNAs to modulate cell proliferation, inflammation, and apoptosis in tracheal epithelial cells during the disease process. M. gallisepticum has been shown to transiently activate the inflammatory response and then inhibit it by suppressing key inflammatory mediators, avoiding being cleared. The regulation and activation of immune cells are important for host response against mycoplasma infection. However, M. gallisepticum has been shown to interfere with the functions of macrophages and lymphocytes, compromising their defense capabilities. In addition, the pathogen can cause immunological damage to organs by inducing an inflammatory response, cell apoptosis, and oxidative stress, leading to immunosuppression in the host. This review comprehensively summarizes these evasion tactics employed by M. gallisepticum, providing valuable insights into better prevention and control of mycoplasma infection.

Abstract
Respiratory diseases represent a significant economic and health burden worldwide, affecting millions of individuals each year in both human and animal populations. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in gene expression regulation and are involved in various physiological and pathological processes. Exosomal miRNAs and cellular miRNAs have been identified as key regulators of several immune respiratory diseases, such as chronic respiratory diseases (CRD) caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG), Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MMP) caused by the bacterium Mycoplasma pneumoniae, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS). Consequently, miRNAs seem to have the potential to serve as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in respiratory diseases. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the functional roles of miRNAs in the above several respiratory diseases and discuss the potential use of miRNAs as stable diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for several immune respiratory diseases, focusing on the identification of differentially expressed miRNAs and their targeting of various signaling pathways implicated in disease pathogenesis. Despite the progress made, unanswered questions and future research directions are discussed to facilitate personalized and targeted therapies for patients with these debilitating conditions.

Abstract
Chick embryos are a valuable model for studying immunity and vaccines. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate the molecular mechanism of the Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG)-induced immune response in chick embryos for the prevention and control of MG. In this study, we screened for downregulated let-7d microRNA in MG-infected chicken embryonic lungs to explore its involvement in the innate immune mechanism against MG. Here, we demonstrated that low levels of let-7d are a protective mechanism for chicken embryo primary type II pneumocytes (CP-II) in the presence of MG. Specifically, we found that depressed levels of let-7 in CP-II cells reduced the adhesion capacity of MG. This suppressive effect was achieved through the activated mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 1 (MKP1) target gene and the inactivated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Furthermore, MG-induced hyperinflammation and cell death were both alleviated by downregulation of let-7d. In conclusion, chick embryos protect themselves against MG infection through the innate immune molecule let-7d, which may result from its function as an inhibitor of the MAPK pathway to effectively mitigate MG adhesion, the inflammatory response and cell apoptosis. This study may provide new insight into the development of vaccines against MG.

Abstract
Chronic respiratory disease (CRD) caused by Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) in chickens leads to enormous economic damage to the poultry industry yearly. The active components and mechanism of action of the traditional herbal remedy Ephedra houttuynia powder (EHP), which had been approved for clinical treatment against MG infection in China, remain unknown. In this study, the active components of EHP against MG were screened using a network pharmacological method, additionally, we studied the mechanism of action of the screened results (quercetin (QUE)). The findings demonstrated that QUE was an essential element of EHP against MG infection, effectively attenuating MG-induced oxidative stress and activation of the TLR2/MyD88/NF-κB pathway. Following QUE therapy, IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α content and expression were downregulated, whereas IL-4 and IL-10 expression were upregulated, eventually suppressing the inflammatory response both in vitro and in vivo. Together, this study presents a strong rationale for using QUE as a therapeutic strategy to inhibit MG infection-induced inflammatory damage and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Reversible phosphorylation of proteins is an important mechanism that regulates cellular processes, which are precisely regulated by protein kinases and phosphatases. PPM1B is a metal ion-dependent serine/threonine protein phosphatase, which regulates multiple biological functions by targeting substrate dephosphorylation, such as cell cycle, energy metabolism, inflammatory responses. In this review, we summarized the occurrent understandings of PPM1B focused on its regulation of signaling pathways, related diseases, and small-molecular inhibitors, which may provide new insights for the identification of PPM1B inhibitors and the treatment of PPM1B-related diseases.

Abstract
In this study, the anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects of hydroxytyrosol (HT) in Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG)-infected chicken were investigated, and the underlying molecular mechanisms were explored. The results revealed severe ultrastructural pathological changes after MG infection in the lung tissue of chicken, including inflammatory cell infiltration, thickening of the lung chamber wall, visible cell swelling, mitochondrial cristae rupture, and ribosome shedding. MG possibly activated the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)/nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)/interleukin (IL)-1β signaling pathway in the lung. However, HT treatment significantly ameliorated MG-induced pathological damage of the lung. HT reduced the magnitude of pulmonary injury after MG infection by reducing apoptosis and releasing the proinflammatory factors. Compared with the MG-infected group, the HT-treated group exhibited significant inhibition of the expression of NF-κB/NLRP3/IL-1β signaling-pathway-related genes; for example, the expressions of NF-κB, NLRP3, caspase-1, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, IL-18, and TNF-α significantly decreased (P < 0.01 or <0.05). In conclusion, HT effectively inhibited MG-induced inflammatory response and apoptosis and protected the lung by blocking the activation of NF-κB/NLRP3/IL-1β signaling pathway and reducing the damage caused by MG infection in chicken. This study revealed that HT may be a suitable and effective anti-inflammatory drug against MG infection in chicken.

Abstract
1. Myoblast proliferation and differentiation is one of the most important biological processes in the development of skeletal muscle. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in this process.2. In this study, the expression level of miR-181a-5p was detected, which found that miR-181a-5p was expressed differently in different tissues, different embryonic ages, and different differentiation stages of primary myoblasts in Gushi chickens.3. The effect of miR-181a-5p was further investigated on chicken primary myoblasts (CPMs). The results of cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) and cell cycle showed that miR-181a-5p could inhibit the proliferation of CPM. The miR-181a-5p promoted the expression of MYOD, MYOG, and MYHC. MYHC protein immunofluorescence experiments showed that miR-181a-5p increased the area of myotubes.4. In total, 63 potential target genes of mir-181a-5p in mRNA transcriptome data analysis were identified. Functional enrichment analysis was performed on these target genes, and ASNS, SMYD1, and FOS were found to play regulatory roles in biological processes such as muscle development. It was speculated that miR-181a-5p played a role in myoblast development through these genes.5. In conclusion, miR-181a-5p can inhibit the proliferation of chicken myoblasts and promote the differentiation of chicken myoblasts. This study laid the foundation for further research on the regulatory mechanism of miR-181a-5p in the development of skeletal muscle and the formation of excellent meat quality traits in Gushi chicken.

Abstract
Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) is one of the most important pathogens, that causes chronic respiratory disease (CRD) in chickens. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as new regulators for many diseases and some lncRNAs can function as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) to regulate mRNAs by competitively binding to miRNAs. Here, we found that miR-33-5p was significantly up-regulated both in MG-infected chicken embryonic lungs and chicken embryo fibroblast cells (DF-1), and Lnc90386 negatively correlated with miR-33-5p. miR-33-5p, as a new regulator for MG infection, repressed apoptosis, inflammatory factors in DF-1 cells by targeting JNK1. Further analyses showed that Lnc90386 sponged miR-33-5p to weaken its inhibitory effect on JNK1, forming the ceRNA regulatory network. Furthermore, knockdown of Lnc90386 significantly inhibited apoptosis and inflammatory factors, and promoted DF-1 cells proliferation. However, co-treatment with miR-33-5p inhibitor and Lnc90386 siRNA showed that knockdown of Lnc90386 could partially eliminate the inhibiting effect of miR-33-5p inhibitor on inflammation, cell apoptosis and proliferation. In conclusion, Lnc90386 sponges miR-33-5p to defend against MG infection by inhibiting the JNK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Exosomal miRNAs are verified critical biomarkers, which participate in several biological processes. The growth and development of the hair follicle (HF) are typically controlled by the exosomal miRNAs via cell-to-cell communication. This study identified a high expression of miR-181a-5p in the low-passage DPC-Exos (exosomes derived from dermal papilla cell), revealing the transportation patterns of the DPC-Exos-derived miR-181a-5p entering the HFSC (hair follicle stem cell). The exosomal miR-181a-5p activates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway by targeting the Wnt inhibitor WIF1 and thereby regulates the proteins and genes related to HF growth and development. Moreover, the exosomal miR-181a-5p was found to suppress the HFSC apoptosis but promoted the HFSC proliferation. The in vitro culture of the HF organ revealed that the exosomal miR-181a-5p possesses a positive role in hair growth. Collectively, the exosomal miR-181a-5p affects the HF growth and development through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. The exosomal miR-181a-5p might, therefore, act as the novel biomarker and therapeutic target for treating hair-related diseases and wool production in mammals.

Abstract
Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) is the primary pathogen of chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) in chickens. In poultry production, antibiotics are mostly used to prevent and control MG infection, but the drug resistance and residue problems caused by them cannot be ignored. Glycyrrhizic acid (GA) is derived from licorice, a herb traditionally used to treat various respiratory diseases. Our study results showed that GA significantly inhibited the mRNA and protein expression of pMGA1.2 and GapA in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, the network pharmacology study revealed that GA most probably resisted MG infection through the MAPK signaling pathway. Our results demonstrated that GA inhibited MG-induced expression of MMP2/MMP9 and inflammatory factors through the p38 and JUN signaling pathways, but not the ERK pathway in vitro. Besides, histopathological sections showed that GA treatment obviously attenuated tracheal and lung damage caused by MG invasion. In conclusion, GA can inhibit MG-triggered inflammation and apoptosis by suppressing the expression of MMP2/MMP9 through the JNK and p38 pathways and inhibit the expression of virulence genes to resist MG. Our results suggest that GA might serve as one of the antibiotic alternatives to prevent MG infection.

[PMID: 36471418 PMCID: PMC9721073 DOI: 10.1186/s13567-022-01117-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022] Open
Abstract
A disruption in the expression of gga-miR-365-3p was confirmed in the Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG)-infected Chicken primary alveolar type II epithelial (CP-II) cells based on previous sequencing results, but the role it plays in the infection was unclear. In the present study, we demonstrate that MG evaded cellular host immunity via a gga-miR-365-3p/SOCS5-JAK/STATs negative feedback loop. Specifically, we found that at the initial stage of MG infection in cells, gga-miR-365-3p was rapidly increased and activated the JAK/STAT signaling pathway by inhibiting SOCS5, which induced the secretion of inflammatory factors and triggered immune response against MG infection. Over time, though, the infection progressed, MG gradually destroyed the immune defences of CP-II cells. In late stages of infection, MG escaped host immunity by reducing intracellular gga-miR-365-3p and inhibiting the JAK/STAT pathway to suppress the secretion of inflammatory factors and promote MG adhesion or invasion. These results revealed the game between MG and host cell interactions, providing a new perspective to gain insight into the pathogenic mechanisms of MG or other pathogens. Meanwhile, they also contributed to novel thoughts on the prevention and control of MG and other pathogenic infections, shedding light on the immune modulating response triggered by pathogen invasion and their molecular targeting.
