Identifying major histocompatibility complex class II-DR molecules in bovine and swine peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophages using mAb-L243. Vaccine 2024; 42:3445-3454. [PMID: 38631956 DOI: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.04.042] [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: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/13/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) molecules are involved in immune responses against pathogens and vaccine candidates' immunogenicity. Immunopeptidomics for identifying cancer and infection-related antigens and epitopes have benefited from advances in immunopurification methods and mass spectrometry analysis. The mouse anti-MHC-II-DR monoclonal antibody L243 (mAb-L243) has been effective in recognising MHC-II-DR in both human and non-human primates. It has also been shown to cross-react with other animal species, although it has not been tested in livestock. This study used mAb-L243 to identify Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium peptides binding to cattle and swine macrophage MHC-II-DR molecules using flow cytometry, mass spectrometry and two immunopurification techniques. Antibody cross-reactivity led to identifying expressed MHC-II-DR molecules, together with 10 Staphylococcus aureus peptides in cattle and 13 S. enterica serovar Typhimurium peptides in swine. Such data demonstrates that MHC-II-DR expression and immunocapture approaches using L243 mAb represents a viable strategy for flow cytometry and immunopeptidomics analysis of bovine and swine antigen-presenting cells.

He K, Liang C, Ma S, Liu H, Zhu Y. Copy number and selection of MHC genes in ruminants are related to habitat, average life span and diet. Gene 2024; 904:148179. [PMID: 38242373 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2024.148179] [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: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
The ruminants, as the main group of livestock, have been extensively studied in terms of their physiology, endocrinology, biochemistry, genetics, and nutrition. Despite the wide geographic distribution and habitat diversity of animals in this group, their ecology and evolution remain poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed the gene copy number, selection, and ecological and evolutionary processes that have affected the evolution of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes across ruminant lineages based on available genomic data. The 51 species analyzed represented all six families of ruminants. Our finding indicated that the architecture of the MHC region is conserved in ruminants, but with variable copy numbers of MHC-I, MHC-IIA, and MHC-IIB genes. No lineage-specific gene duplication was observed in the MHC genes. The phylogenetic generalized least squares regression (PGLS) model revealed association between ecological and biological factors (habitat and lifespan) and gene duplication in DQA and DQB, but not in DRB. The selection pressure of DQA and DQB were related with lifespan, diet, and the ratio of genetic repeat elements. These results suggest that the MHC evolution in ruminants, including copy number and selection, has been influenced by genetic repeat elements, pathogen exposure risk, and intrinsic cost of possessing multiple MHC genes.

Identification of BoLA Alleles Associated with BLV Proviral Load in US Beef Cows. Pathogens 2022; 11:pathogens11101093. [PMID: 36297150 PMCID: PMC9610478 DOI: 10.3390/pathogens11101093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) causes enzootic bovine leukosis, the most common neoplastic disease in cattle. Previous work estimates that 78% of US beef operations and 38% of US beef cattle are seropositive for BLV. Infection by BLV in a herd is an economic concern for producers as evidence suggests that it causes an increase in cost and a subsequent decrease in profit to producers. Studies investigating BLV in dairy cattle have noted disease resistance or susceptibility, measured by a proviral load (PVL) associated with specific alleles of the bovine leukocyte antigen (BoLA) DRB3 gene. This study aims to investigate the associations between BoLA DRB3 alleles and BLV PVL in beef cattle. Samples were collected from 157 Midwest beef cows. BoLA DRB3 alleles were identified and compared with BLV PVL. One BoLA DRB3 allele, *026:01, was found to be associated with high PVL in relation to the average of the sampled population. In contrast, two alleles, *033:01 and *002:01, were found to be associated with low PVL. This study provides evidence of a relationship between BoLA DRB3 alleles and BLV PVL in US beef cows.
