Chicken Enterococcus faecalis-induced immunoglobulin Y as a prophylactic and therapeutic agent against streptococcosis in red tilapia ( Oreochromis hybrid). Vet World 2023; 16:175-186. [PMID: 36855368 PMCID: PMC9967709 DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2023.175-186] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/12/2022] [Indexed: 01/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and Aim Streptococcosis is a common bacterial disease in red tilapia, in which Enterococcus faecalis infection has not been widely reported. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of pellets that contain chicken E. faecalis-induced immunoglobulin Y (IgY) to treat and prevent streptococcosis in red tilapia. Materials and Methods We conducted a 28-day study for immunoprophylaxis and immunotherapy, each using four groups with two replications: Healthy control fish (KS), non-IgY pellets (PA and TA), pellets with 25% egg yolk containing E. faecalis-induced IgY (PB and TB), and pellets with 50% egg yolk containing E. faecalis-induced IgY(PC and TC). Indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed on prototype pellets produced with an IgY suspension at 1.63 mg/mL as the standard optical density curve. For the immunoprophylaxis study, pellets of 3% of the average body weight of the experimental fish (0.50 g per fish per day) were given daily until day 14 before the challenge test with E. faecalis (2.1 × 109 Colony-forming unit/mL peroral) on day 15. The data from the observation period on days 15-28 were analyzed. For the immunotherapy study, pellets of 3% of the average body weight (0.50 g per fish per day) were given daily for 21 days (days 8-28) 7 day spost-infection. The data from the immunotherapy study were collected during the observation period on days 8-28. Statistical analysis was performed on non-specific immune variables: Total leukocytes, monocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils, phagocytic activity, and macrophage capacity; and the semi-quantitative distribution of melanomacrophage centers (MMCs) in the lymphoid organs, such as spleen and liver. Photomacrographic data were analyzed descriptively and qualitatively by comparing the healing process and clinical signs found between experiments in the immunotherapy study. Results The pellet with 50% egg yolk with an IgY at 2.43 mg/g pellet, 3% of body weight once daily, was the best formula on experimental fish. The administration of this formulation can also increase non-specific immunity and the distribution of MMCs in the spleen and liver with a survival rate of 55% for 14 days of challenge period in the immunoprophylaxis study and 70% for 21 days of therapy period in the immunotherapy study. Conclusion Immunoglobulin Y can be a prophylactic and therapeutic agent against streptococcal infections caused E. faecalis in red tilapia with an optimum dosage of 2.43 mg/g pellet.

Abstract
Antiviral, antibacterial, and antiparasitic drugs and vaccines are essential to maintaining the health of humans and animals. Yet, their production can be slow and expensive, and efficacy lost once pathogens mount resistance. Chicken immunoglobulin Y (IgY) is a highly conserved homolog of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) that has shown benefits and a favorable safety profile, primarily in animal models of human infectious diseases. IgY is fast-acting, easy to produce, and low cost. IgY antibodies can readily be generated in large quantities with minimal environmental harm or infrastructure investment by using egg-laying hens. We summarize a variety of IgY uses, focusing on their potential for the detection, prevention, and treatment of human and animal infections.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2019; 84:108-119.

Abstract
Skin ulceration syndrome in sea cucumbers is an infectious bacterial disease with fast and high mortality. This study investigated the protection of chicken egg yolk antibodies (IgY) on skin ulcer syndrome in sea cucumbers induced by intraperitoneally injecting Shewanella marisflavi AP629. Inactivated whole S. marisflavi AP629 cells were used as an immunogen to immunize laying hens. The highest titer of the obtained specific IgY by ELISA was 1:90000. Specific IgY significantly inhibited the growth of S. marisflavi AP629 in a liquid medium, dose-dependent manner at concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 2 mg/mL. Results obtained from scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy showed that specific IgY could make bacteria agglutinate and damage the cell membrane of S. marisflavi AP629, resulting in a decrease of bacterial viability. Sea cucumbers treated with 25, 5, and 1 mg/mL anti-S. marisflavi AP629 IgY could achieve survival rates of 77.5%, 50%, and 22.5% at day 12 when the infection and injection therapy were carried out at the same time, respectively. However, survival rates of sea cucumbers treated with 25 mg/mL of nonspecific IgY were only 7.5% at day 12. All sea cucumbers in the positive control group died within twelve days after bacterial inoculation. Levels of the five humoral immune factors (LYZ, ACP, NOS, SOD, CAT) released by coelomocytes were significantly increased in the specific IgY group compared to the nonspecific IgY and positive control groups within 12 h. However, the activities of LYZ, ACP, and SOD decreased rapidly at the 48 h time point in the specific IgY group, indicating that specific IgY treatment could shorten the time needed to restore balance in sea cucumber immune systems. Oral prophylaxis with egg yolk powders was that all sea cucumbers were challenged with 4.2 × 106 CFU S. marisflavi AP629 by intraperitoneal injection after 60 days of feeding. Survival rates of diets containing 10%, 5%, and 1% specific egg yolk powder were 57.5%, 52.5%, and 30% by day 12, respectively, and the survival rate was 27.5% for the nonspecific group and 22.5% for the positive control group. After feeding for 60 days, enzyme activities of LZY, NOS, and SOD were all significantly enhanced in sea cucumbers fed with specific egg yolk powder when compared to the control group (p < 0.05). This study demonstrated that the phagocytic activities of coelomocytes were significantly stimulated after specific IgY treatment over that of nonspecific IgY or without IgY treatments in sea cucumbers (p < 0.05). Overall, our results revealed that anti-S. marisflavi AP629 IgY has a positive immunomodulatory effect on sea cucumbers infected with S. marisflavi AP629.

Abstract
Red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) is one of the most important viruses which mainly infects the larva of marine and freshwater fish with high mortality and affects the fishery industry worldwide. Currently, there are no effective vaccines available for the fish larva infected with NNV. Immunoglobulin yolk (IgY) origin of oviparous animals is passed from the blood serum and concentrated in the egg yolk. With the advantages of high yield, cost-effectiveness, and high stability, IgY can be widely used in passive immunization, especially in young animals in which adaptive immunity is not fully developed. In this study, we have cloned and expressed the recombinant capsid protein of RGNNV in Escherichia coli and used as an immunogen for generating specific anti-RGNNV IgY antibody in laying hens. Water-soluble fractions (WSF) of the specific IgY were isolated from egg yolk and purified by two-step precipitation with saturated ammonium sulfate salting. By Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), the titer of the IgY reached a peak at the 6th week post of immunization and had a strong stability at a wide range of temperature, pH, and pepsin enzyme digestion. The purified IgY was competent to neutralize and completely inhibited the RGNNV replication in the grouper fin cell line (GF-1), indicating that it was highly specific and effectively recognized RGNNV. The results will pave a new way for the prevention of RGNNV infection.

Abstract
Vibrio splendidus is one of the most harmful pathogens associated with skin ulceration syndrome in the sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) due to its high virulence and frequency of appearance. The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of chicken egg yolk antibody (IgY) against V. splendidus infection in the sea cucumber. Whole V. splendidus cells were used as an immunogen to immunize 20 White Leghorn hens (25 weeks old). IgY was produced from egg yolks obtained from these immunized hens using water dilution, two-step salt precipitation and ultrafiltration. The purity of the IgY produced was approximately 83%. Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay indicated a high specificity for IgY with a maximum antibody titer of 320,000. The growth of V. splendidus in liquid medium was significantly inhibited by IgY in a dose-dependent manner at concentrations ranging from 1 to 10 mg/mL. The protective effects of IgY were evaluated in sea cucumber by intraperitoneally injecting anti-V. splendidus IgY antibodies (10 mg/mL) or immersing the sea cucumber in aqueous IgY (1 g/L) after an intraperitoneal injection of V. splendidus. Intraperitoneal injection resulted in an 80% survival while immersion resulted in a 75% survival during the 11-day experimental period. The survival rates were significantly higher than the positive control and the non-specific IgY group (P < 0.05). As well, the bacterial burden in the respiratory tree, intestine and coelomic liquid was significantly (P < 0.05) lower in sea cucumber treated with specific IgY than those treated with non-specific IgY. The phagocytosis of coelomocytes for V. splendidus in the presence of specific IgY was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than that obtained with non-specific IgY or without IgY, suggesting that specific IgY enhanced phagocytic activity. The current work suggests that specific IgY has potential for protecting sea cucumbers against V. splendidus infection.

Abstract
In the present article, immunoglobulin (Ig) of Puntius sarana (a vulnerable medium carp species) was purified by affinity chromatography, characterized, and identified as only IgM type with a native molecular weight of 879 kDa having one heavy (88 kDa) and one light (26 kDa) chain. Further, the developed rabbit antisera against IgM was found to be quite specific to P. sarana IgM and used in ELISA to measure the antibody titer in P. sarana at different time periods, against an antigen (hemocyanin) injection with and without adjuvant. The antibody titer was significantly higher in most of the time periods in both groups, however, the adjuvant-treated group showed higher antibody titer at days 43 and 90, compared to non adjuvant-treated group. Further, the partial IgM sequence was amplified and its expression level was checked during ontogenesis. The IgM transcript was detected from unfertilized egg stage to 4 days post fertilization (dpf) and again reappeared at 21 dpf whereas during infection with Aeromonas hydrophila, significantly marked up-regulation of the gene was observed at 12 hr, 24 hr, and 7 days post-infection time periods indicating the role of IgM during early embryonic time period as well as during bacterial pathogenesis.

Abstract
Oral administration of chicken egg yolk immunoglobulins (IgY) has attracted much attention as a means for controlling infectious diseases caused by microorganisms. This study evaluated the protective effect of IgY against Vibrio anguillarum infection in ayu, Plecoglossus altivelis. IgY was isolated from egg yolks laid by hens initially immunized with formalin-inactivated V. anguillarum. Lower mortality of ayu was observed in groups treated with anti-V. anguillarum IgY (aVIgY), compared with those treated with saline or with nonspecific IgY (nspIgY). All fish in saline-treated groups died within seven days after bacterial inoculation. The bacterial load in blood, liver, and spleen was significantly lower in fish treated with aVIgY than in fish treated with nspIgY. aVIgY treatment significantly reduced tumor necrosis factor-α (PaTNF-α), interleukin-1β (PaIL-1β), transforming growth factor-β (PaTGF-β), and leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin-2 (PaLECT2) transcript levels in the head kidney, spleen, and liver of ayu challenged by V. anguillarum, compared with nspIgY treatment. The phagocytic activity of macrophages for V. anguillarum in the presence of specific IgY was significantly higher than that seen for nonspecific IgY. These results suggest that passive immunization by oral intubation with pathogen-specific IgY may provide a valuable treatment for V. anguillarum infection in ayu.

Abstract
Porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) is the causative agent of acute diarrhea of newborn piglets that provokes high mortality rates in affected farms. In this study, specific immunoglobulin from egg yolk against TGEV was produced by immunization of White leghorn hens. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and virus neutralization (VN) test revealed that the specific antibody titer started to increase on the tenth day post-immunization, reached its peak on the eighth week, and remained at a high level until the last week that we tested. The prophylactic and therapeutic effects of egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) was investigated in piglets. IgY was found effective to increase piglets survival rate significantly after challenge exposures in prophylactic efficacy analysis. The therapeutic effects test revealed that the mortality was dramatically reduced by orally administered IgY. All these results in our study indicated that IgY specific to TGEV could be an alternative prophylactic method like colostral antibodies against TGEV in piglets.

Abstract
Chinese soft-shelled turtles (Trionyx sinens) in culture farms using an artificial warming system in Zhejiang, China, often show typical signs of white-spot disease such as white spots on their bodies, skin lesions, anorexia and eventually death. The sick turtles were mostly 5~80 g in weight. A suspected fungal pathogen was isolated from the sick turtles and verified as Paecilomyces lilacinus by sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) of its ribosomal DNA (rDNA). Detailed morphological examinations were also conducted to confirm the white-spot disease.

Abstract
The present study was an attempt to raise hen egg yolk Ig (IgY) simultaneously directed against Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) and Salmonella Typhimurium (ST) in the same egg yolk. The immunopotentiating effect of 2 different adjuvants—Freund’s adjuvants (FA) and immunostimulating complexes matrix (IM)—on antibody response was also evaluated. Bacterial outer membrane proteins (OMP) were selected as target antigens. The ISA Brown hens, specific-Salmonella spp.-free status, divided into 6 groups were intramuscularly injected with a mono-compound antigen preparation: SE-OMP (treatment SE-FA or SE-IM) or ST-OMP (treatment ST-FA or ST-IM), or a combined antigen preparation: ½ SE-OMP and ½ STOMP (treatment SEST-FA or SEST-IM). Titers of antibodies in yolk were evaluated biweekly with ELISA. There was no antigen × adjuvant interaction on antibody titers. Anti-SE IgY titers in hens that received treatment SEST-FA or SEST-IM were statistically similar (P > 0.05) as compared with those obtained from hens immunized with treatment SE-FA or SE-IM. Anti-ST IgY titers in hens immunized with treatment SEST-FA or SEST-IM were slightly lower than those of hens that received treatment ST-FA or ST-IM. The cross-reactivity of anti-SE IgY, induced by treatment SE-FA or SE-IM, with ST-OMP antigen and that of anti-ST IgY, induced by ST-FA or ST-IM, with SE-OMP antigen were arbitrarily assessed on d 43 and 155 by ELISA. The average cross-reactivity of anti-SE IgY with ST-OMP antigen was 71.7%. The average cross-reactivity of anti-ST IgY with SE-OMP antigen was 78.8%. In FA groups, antibody titers were found higher (P < 0.05) than those in IM groups. Furthermore, no extensive lesions or clinical abnormalities were detected in hens injected with FA. These findings showed the opportunity to raise IgY antibody against 2 Salmonella serovars in the same yolk and that FA was more efficient than IM in mediating antibody response.
