Rationalizing the use of common parameters and technological tools to follow up Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae infections in pigs. Porcine Health Manag 2024; 10:31.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mycoplasma (M.) hyopneumoniae is associated with respiratory disease in pigs and is the primary agent of enzootic pneumonia. Quantification of M. hyopneumoniae-related outcome parameters can be difficult, expensive, and time-consuming, in both research and field settings. In addition to well-established methods, technological tools are becoming available to monitor various aspects of relevant animal- and environment-related features, often in real-time. Therefore, this study aimed to assess whether certain parameters, such as animal movement and body temperature using microchips (IMT), correlate with established parameters and whether the currently used parameters can be rationalized. RESULTS The percentage of movement was significantly reduced by M. hyopneumoniae infection in pigs (p < 0.05), where the M. hyopneumoniae-infected group showed a lower percentage of movement (1.9%) when compared to the negative control group (6.9%). On the other hand, macroscopic (MLCL) and microscopic (MLL) lung lesions, respiratory disease score (RDS), M. hyopneumoniae-DNA load, and anti-M. hyopneumoniae antibody levels increased significantly in the M. hyopneumoniae-infected group 28 days post-inoculation (p < 0.05). Moderate (r > 0.30) to very strong correlations (> 0.80) were observed between the abovementioned parameters (p < 0.05), except for IMT. A significant and moderate correlation was reported between IMT and rectal temperature (r = 0.49; p < 0.05). Last, the average daily weight gain and the percentage of air in the lung were not affected by M. hyopneumoniae infection (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS M. hyopneumoniae infection significantly reduced the movement of piglets and increased lung lesions, M. hyopneumoniae-DNA load, and anti-M. hyopneumoniae antibody levels; and, good correlations were observed between most parameters, indicating a direct relationship between them. Thus, we suggest that changes in movement might be a reliable indicator of M. hyopneumoniae infection in pigs, and that a selected group of parameters-specifically RDS, MLCL, MLL, M. hyopneumoniae-DNA load, anti-M. hyopneumoniae antibody levels, and movement-are optimal to assess M. hyopneumoniae infection under experimental conditions.

Abstract
Mycotoxins frequently contaminate a variety of food items, posing significant concerns for both food safety and public health. The adverse consequences linked to poisoning from these substances encompass symptoms such as vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhea, the potential for cancer development, impairments to the immune system, disruptions in neuroendocrine function, genetic damage, and, in severe cases, fatality. The deoxynivalenol (DON) raises significant concerns for both food safety and human health, particularly due to its potential harm to vital organs in the body. It is one of the most prevalent fungal contaminants found in edible items used by humans and animals globally. The presence of harmful mycotoxins, including DON, in food has caused widespread worry. Altered versions of DON have arisen as possible risks to the environment and well-being, as they exhibit a greater propensity to revert back to the original mycotoxins. This can result in the buildup of mycotoxins in both animals and humans, underscoring the pressing requirement for additional investigation into the adverse consequences of these modified mycotoxins. Furthermore, due to the lack of sufficient safety data, accurately evaluating the risk posed by modified mycotoxins remains challenging. Our review study delves into conjugated forms of DON, exploring its structure, toxicity, control strategies, and a novel animal model for assessing its toxicity. Various toxicities, such as acute, sub-acute, chronic, and cellular, are proposed as potential mechanisms contributing to the toxicity of conjugated forms of DON. Additionally, the study offers an overview of DON's toxicity mechanisms and discusses its widespread presence worldwide. A thorough exploration of the health risk evaluation associated with conjugated form of DON is also provided in this discussion.

Abstract
The etiology of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) involves complex genetic and environmental factors such as mycotoxin contamination. Deoxynivalenol (DON), a well-known mycotoxin, contaminates food and feed and can induce intestinal injury and inflammatory response. The dose of DON in many foods is also below the limit, although the dose of DON exceeds the limit. The present study aims to evaluate the effects of the nontoxic dose of DON on colitis induced by dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) and the mechanism in mice. The results showed a nontoxic dose of DON at 50 μg/kg bw per day exacerbated DSS-induced colitis in mice as demonstrated by increased disease activity index, decreased colon length, increased morphological damage, decreased occludin and mucoprotein 2 expression, increased IL-1β and TNF-α expression, and decreased IL-10 expression. DON at 50 μg/kg bw per day enhanced JAK2/STAT3 phosphorylation induced by DSS. Adding JAK2 inhibitor AG490 attenuated the aggravating effects of DON on DSS-induced colitis by reversing the morphological damage, occludin and mucoprotein 2 expression increased, IL-1β and TNF-α expression increased, and IL-10 expression decreased. Taken together, a nontoxic dose of DON could aggravate DSS-induced colitis via the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. This suggests that DON, below the standard limit dose, is also a risk for IBD and may be harmful to the health of humans and animals, which could provide the basis for establishing limits for DON.

Abstract
Introduction Enzootic pneumonia still causes major economic losses to the intensive pig production. Vaccination against its primary pathogen, Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, is carried out worldwide to control the disease and minimize clinical signs and performance losses. Nonetheless, the effects of both infection with, and vaccination against Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae on the innate and adaptive immune responses remain largely unknown. Therefore, we conducted a study in which piglets were injected once with a commercial bacterin V1 or V2, or the adjuvant of V1 (A) to investigate their effect on local, innate and adaptive immune responses. Methods Three weeks after vaccination, piglets were challenge infected with M. hyopneumoniae and euthanized four weeks later to assess vaccine efficacy via macroscopic and microscopic evaluation of lung lesions. Blood and broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BAL) samples were collected to measure antibody responses, cellular immunity, BAL cytokine levels and BAL M. hyopneumoniae DNA load as well as cytokine secretion by monocytes. Results After vaccination, proliferation of antigen-specific CD3+ T cells and a higher percentage of TNF-α+ CD8+, and TNF-α+ and TNF-α+IFN-γ+ CD4+CD8+ T cells was seen in V1, while proliferation of or a significant increase in cytokine production by different T cell subsets could not be observed for animals from V2. Interestingly, LPS-stimulated blood monocytes from V1 and A secreted less IL-10 on D7. After challenge, higher levels of IgA, more IL-10 and less IL-1β was detected in BAL from V1, which was not observed in V2. Animals from A had significantly more IL-17A in BAL. The macroscopic lung lesion score and the M. hyopneumoniae DNA load at euthanasia was lower in V1, but the microscopic lung lesion score was lower in both vaccinated groups. Discussion In conclusion, these results indicate that the two commercial bacterins induced different local and adaptive immune responses, that the adjuvant alone can reduce anti-inflammatory innate immune responses, and that both vaccines had a different efficacy to reduce Mycoplasma-like lung lesions and M. hyopneumoniae DNA load in the lung.

Abstract
New vaccine formulations that include novel strains of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and innovative adjuvants designed to induce cellular immunity could improve vaccine efficacy against this pathogen. The aim of this experimental study was to assess the efficacy of three experimental bacterin formulations based on M. hyopneumoniae field strain F7.2C which were able to induce cellular immunity. The formulations included a cationic liposome formulation with the Mincle receptor ligand trehalose 6,6-dibehenate (Lipo_DDA:TDB), a squalene-in-water emulsion with Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands targeting TLR1/2, TLR7/8 and TLR9 (SWE_TLR), and a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) micro-particle formulation with the same TLR ligands (PLGA_TLR). Four groups of 12 M. hyopneumoniae-free piglets were primo- (day (D) 0; 39 days of age) and booster vaccinated (D14) intramuscularly with either one of the three experimental bacterin formulations or PBS. The pigs were endotracheally inoculated with a highly and low virulent M. hyopneumoniae strain on D28 and D29, respectively, and euthanized on D56. The main efficacy parameters were: respiratory disease score (RDS; daily), macroscopic lung lesion score (D56) and log copies M. hyopneumoniae DNA determined with qPCR on bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid (D42, D56). All formulations were able to reduce clinical symptoms, lung lesions and the M. hyopneumoniae DNA load in the lung, with formulation SWE_TLR being the most effective (RDSD28–D56 −61.90%, macroscopic lung lesions −88.38%, M. hyopneumoniae DNA load in BAL fluid (D42) −67.28%). Further experiments raised under field conditions are needed to confirm these results and to assess the effect of the vaccines on performance parameters.
