PLoS One 2023; 18:e0293727. [PMID: 37917758 PMCID: PMC10621851 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0293727] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this research was to demonstrate the potential of adding propolis (PR) to the diet of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to mitigate the harmful effect of cold stress (CS) on the growth performance, redox status, and immunological response. Two trials were conducted in this study. First, 210 Nile tilapia fingerlings (28.61±0.20 g) were used in a preliminary trial to determine the appropriate PR level and supplementation period to be applied for the main trial. Fish were assigned into 7 treatment groups (3 aquaria replicates × 10 fish per aquarium in each treatment group) according to the rate of PR supplementation in the fish diets at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 g/kg for 6 consecutive weeks. The average body weight and body weight gain were determined weekly. It was found that PR supplementation at 10 g/kg in fish diet for 4 weeks was enough to obtain significant results on the growth performance of Nile tilapia. For the main trial of the present study, 480 Nile tilapia fingerlings (average weight 29.93±0.11 g) were distributed into randomized 2 PR × 2 CS factorial treatment groups (6 replicate aquariums containing 20 fish in each group). Fish of PR groups received a basal diet for a feeding period of 4 weeks, included with 10 g/kg PR (+ PR group) or without PR inclusion (- PR group). Fish of the CS groups were either challenged with cold stress at 18°C (+ CS group) or maintained at a temperature of 26°C during the feeding period (- CS group). The results showed that CS challenge significantly (p < 0.05) impaired the growth indices, redox status, and immune response in the challenged fish compared to the non-challenged fish. On contradictory, the inclusion of PR into fish diets enhanced (p < 0.05) the feed intake, growth indices, antioxidant enzyme activity, and immunological parameters. Moreover, PR treatment alleviated the CS deterioration of fish weights, specific growth rates, feed efficiency, antioxidant enzyme activity, lymphocyte proliferation, and phagocytosis activity and alleviated the elevated mortality, H/L ratio, and malondialdehyde levels by cold stress. It is concluded that the inclusion of propolis at 10 g/kg in the diet of Nile tilapia fish could be approved as a nutritional approach to enhance their performance, especially when stressed by low-temperature conditions.

Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12131658. [PMID: 35804557 PMCID: PMC9264778 DOI: 10.3390/ani12131658] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2022] [Revised: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Propolis and bee pollen have natural bioactive compounds that may support the performance and immunological response of broilers. (2) Methods: The study included 300 1 d old Cobb-500 broiler chicks. Starting from 22−42 d of age, chicks were divided according to a 2 × 2 factorial design into one of the four treatment groups (5 replicates × 15 chicks per replicate); a basal diet without supplementation (CONT) or supplemented with 1 g/kg of propolis (PR) or bee pollen (BP) separately or in an even combination (PR + BP). (3) Results: A significant (p < 0.05) increase was obtained in the body-weight gain of broilers treated with PR, BP, and PR + BP compared to the CONT. The total antioxidant capacity and superoxide dismutase were highly (p < 0.05) activated in all treated groups compared to the CONT. Immunological parameters, especially the leukocyte cell viability, T- and B-lymphocyte proliferation, immunoglobulins (IgA and IgM), antibody titers, and wattle-swelling test were significantly (p < 0.05) enhanced in the treated broilers with PR and/or BP compared to the CONT. (4) Conclusions: The dietary supplementation of PR and/or BP could be beneficial for broiler growth through maximizing the antioxidant- and immune-system defenses.

Abstract
Innate immunity is not only the first line of host defense against pathogenic infection, but also the cornerstone of adaptive immune response. Upon pathogenic infection, pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) of host engage pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) of pathogens, which initiates IFN production by activating interferon regulatory transcription factors (IRFs), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), and/or activating protein-1 (AP-1) signal transduction pathways in host cells. In order to replicate and survive, pathogens have evolved multiple strategies to evade host innate immune responses, including IFN-I signal transduction, autophagy, apoptosis, necrosis, inflammasome and/or metabolic pathways. Some avian viruses may not be highly pathogenic but they have evolved varied strategies to evade or suppress host immune response for survival, causing huge impacts on the poultry industry worldwide. In this review, we focus on the advances on innate immune evasion by several important avian immunosuppressive viruses (infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), Marek’s disease virus (MDV), avian leukosis virus (ALV), etc.), especially their evasion of PRRs-mediated signal transduction pathways (IFN-I signal transduction pathway) and IFNAR-JAK-STAT signal pathways. A comprehensive understanding of the mechanism by which avian viruses evade or suppress host immune responses will be of help to the development of novel vaccines and therapeutic reagents for the prevention and control of infectious diseases in chickens.

Abstract
Chicken peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) exhibit wide-ranging cell types, but current understanding of their subclasses, immune cell classification, and function is limited and incomplete. Here we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of PBMCs in Avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) infected and control chickens at 21 days post infection (DPI) to determine chicken PBMCs subsets and their specific molecular and cellular characteristics. Eight cell populations and their potential marker genes were identified in PBMCs. T cell populations had the strongest response to (ALV-J) infection, based on the detection of the largest number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), and could be further grouped into four subsets: activated CD4+ T cells, Th1-like cells, Th2-like cells, and cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. Furthermore, pseudotime analysis results suggested that chicken CD4+ T cells could potentially differentiate into Th1-like and Th2-like cells. Moreover, ALV-J infection activated CD4+ T cell was probably inclined to differentiate into Th1-like cells. Compared to the control PBMCs, ALV-J infection also had an obvious impact on PBMCs composition. B cells showed inconspicuous response and their numbers decreased in PBMCs from ALV-J infected chicken. Proportions of cytotoxic Th1-like cells and CD8+ T cells increased in the T cell population of PBMCs from ALV-J infected chicken, which were potentially key mitigating effectors against ALV-J infection. More importantly, our results provide a rich resource of gene expression profiles of chicken PBMCs subsets for a systems-level understanding of their function in homeostatic condition as well as in response to viral infection.

Abstract
The underlying molecular mechanism of lipid metabolism in peripheral blood lymphocytes from chicken infected with reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) remains poorly understood. Therefore, this scientific question was explored in vitro and in vivo. The results indicated that triglyceride content was significantly reduced, but the free fatty acid content and carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 activity were significantly increased in blood lymphocytes after REV infection. By RNA sequencing, 97 known differentially expressed genes (DEG) related to lipid metabolism or glycometabolism were screened via Gene Ontology term analysis. On the basis of these 97 DEG, enriched pathways, including the peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway, were identified. Among these 97 DEG, some representative genes were related to lipolysis and fatty acid utilization (PPARG, LPL, PLIN2, ACOX1, ACSL1, FABP3, and FABP4). However, other genes related to lipid biosynthesis (ACSL3, ACSL6, DGAT2, LPIN1, and LPIN2) were downregulated. The quantitative polymerase chain reaction results confirmed the accuracy of the RNA sequencing data, and the in vivo outcome supports theses in vitro results. Our findings revealed that REV regulates fatty acid and lipid metabolism in peripheral blood lymphocytes from chicken. After the lymphocytes were infected with REV, the exogenous fatty acids were preferentially used; genes involved in fatty acid utilization were upregulated via the PPAR pathway, whereas genes involved in lipid and fatty acid biosynthesis were downregulated.

Abstract
Propolis (PR) is a resin product of bee colonies that has rich bioactive antioxidant and bactericidal compounds. Endotoxin, a byproduct of bacterial growth, is reported to cause progressive induction of endogenous oxidative stress and has negative impacts on individual health and wellbeing. Hereby, we investigated the ability of PR to alleviate the oxidative stress and immunosuppression imposed by avian pathogenic Escherichia coli using laying hen as a based model. In this study, PR was dietary supplemented to hens for 4 weeks at a concentration of 0.1%. At the beginning of the 4th week of the experiment, hens from control and PR treatment were injected with E. coli (O157:H7; 107 colonies/hen) or saline. The results showed significant (p < 0.05) negative impact of E. coli challenge on antioxidant status, immune response and productive performance. PR supplementation reduced (p < 0.05) inflammation markers levels (tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) and interleukin 1β (IL-1β)) and plasma corticosterone concentration. The antioxidant status was ameliorated with dietary PR supplementation to challenged hens, showing significant (p < 0.05) reduction in malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and increasing total antioxidant capacity (TAC) concentrations. Cell mediated, as well as, humeral immune response improved significantly (p < 0.05) with dietary PR verified by the enhancement of T- and B-lymphocyte proliferation and the positive respond to phytohemagglutinin (PHA). Leucocyte cells viability increased significantly and the apoptotic factor forkhead box O3 (Foxo3) was reduced with PR supplementation. The current study revealed that dietary PR supplementation can effectively be used as an organic feed additive to overcome the endogenous oxidative stress induced by endotoxins challenge.

A novel long noncoding RNA, ENSGALG00000021686, regulates the intracellular transport of fatty acids by targeting the FABP3 gene in chicken. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2020; 528:706-712.

Abstract
Fatty acids (FAs) are essential for the vital movement of humans and animals. Their metabolism is, in part, regulated by FABP3. In our previous study, a novel lncRNA (ENSGALG00000021686, L21686) was identified, and FABP3 was predicted as its target gene. Here, using chicken myocytes, lymphocytes, and different tissues, L21686 target on the FABP3 gene, FABP3 mRNA expression, and their effect on FA metabolism are explored. The results show that the highest expression of L21686 is in muscle tissue, a significant energy-consuming tissue. L21686 expression is consistent with FABP3 mRNA expression. We also show that under the different treatments, the levels of FABP3 mRNA and protein in myocytes and lymphocytes change in tandem with L21686 expression. Moreover, the dual-luciferase reporter assay provided direct evidence that L21686 targets the FABP3 gene. Finally, it was found that the content of free FAs increases along with the up-regulation of L21686 and the FABP3 gene. Malonyl CoA content does not change under the different treatments, suggesting that L21686 regulates the intake of extracellular FAs in chicken. Further, the changes in lipoprotein lipase (LPL), sterol-regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP-1), fatty acid synthase (FASN), and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) mRNA levels support this view. In summary, our data show that the new lncRNA (L21686) regulates the intake of extracellular FAs in chicken cells in vitro by targeting the expression of the FABP3 gene. Our findings will help to establish the groundwork and provide a new clue for deciphering the regulation of FAs metabolism in chicken.

Abstract
Immunosuppression is characterized by a dysfunction of humoral and/or cellular immune response leading to increase of susceptibility to secondary infections, increase of mortality and morbidity, poor productivity, and welfare and vaccination failures. Humoral immune response depression is due to perturbation of soluble factors, as complement and chemokines in innate immunity and antibodies or cytokines in adaptive immunity. At the cellular immune response, immunosuppression is the consequence of the dysfunction of T-cells, B-cells, heterophils, monocytes, macrophages, and natural Killer cells. Immunosuppression in turkeys can be caused by numerous, non-infectious, and infectious agents, having variable pathological and molecular mechanisms. Interactions between them are very complex. This paper reviews the common viruses inducing clinical and sub-clinical immunosuppression in turkeys, and enteric and neoplastic viruses in particular, as well as the interactions among them. The evaluation of immunosuppression is currently based on classical approach; however, new technique such as the microarray technology is being developed to investigate immunological mediator’s genes detection. Controlling of immunosuppression include, in general, biosecurity practices, maintaining appropriate breeding conditions and vaccination of breeders and their progeny. Nevertheless, few vaccines are available against immunosuppressive viruses in turkey’s industry. The development of new control strategies is reviewed.

Abstract
Reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) is an important representative avian retrovirus. To improve our understanding of the host cellular responses to virus infection and the pathogenesis of REV infection, we applied isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) labeling coupled with multidimensional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to detect changes in protein levels in chicken embryo fibroblast cells (CEFs) that were infected with REV or mock infected. In total, 605 cellular proteins were differentially expressed, among which 196, 345, and 286 were differentially expressed in REV-infected CEFs at 1, 3, and 5 days postinfection, respectively. Gene Ontology analysis indicated that the biological processes of the differentially expressed proteins were primarily related to cellular processes, metabolic processes, biological regulation, response to stimulus, and immune system processes and that the molecular functions in which the differentially expressed proteins were mainly involved were binding, catalytic activity, and enzyme regulator activity. Pathway analysis showed that a total of 143, 167, and 179 pathways, including protein digestion and absorption, focal adhesion, ECM-receptor interaction, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, Toll-like receptors, and JAK-STAT signaling, were enriched in REV-infected CEFs at 1, 3, and 5 days postinfection, respectively. In conclusion, this study is the first to analyze the protein profile of REV-infected CEFs using an iTRAQ approach. The results of this study provide valuable information for better understanding the host response to REV infection.

[PMID: 31228642 DOI: 10.1016/j.meegid.2019.103932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2019] [Revised: 06/09/2019] [Accepted: 06/18/2019] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
In avian species, the Reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) causes severe immunosuppression and other symptoms, including avian dwarfing syndrome, and chronic tumors in lymphoid and other tissues. The pathogenesis of REV and its interaction with the host have yet to be fully elucidated with transcriptional studies on the changes in host gene expression after REV infection at the body level. In this study, the Spleen Necrosis Virus (SNV) was used to inoculate the one-day-old specific pathogen free (SPF) chicken to simulate congenital infection. We identified 1507 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at 7, 14 and 21 dpi using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. Through the Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis of these DEGs, it was found that DEGs were mainly involved in the categories of signal transduction, immune system and signaling molecules and interaction. Among them, Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), chemokine, T cell receptor, JAK-STAT, TNF, and NF-kappa B signaling pathway, and the Hematopoietic cell lineage play an important role in the tumorigenic and immunosuppressive regulation of REV. In addition, a series of DEGs associated with inflammatory factors (CCL4, TNFRSF18, CDKN2), apoptosis (IRF1, PDCD1, WNT5A), innate immunity (TLR, MAD5, TRIM25), and adaptive immunity (LY6E, CD36, LAG3) were also discovered. We further verified 33 selected immune- relevant DEGs using quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). These findings provide new insights and research directions for revealing the pathogenesis of REV infection and the interaction between REV and the chicken immune system.

Abstract
The Reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) primarily causes avian severe immunosuppression, in addition to other symptoms, which include avian dwarfing syndrome and chronic tumors in lymphoid and other tissue. To date, REV’s molecular mechanisms leading to immunosuppression have not been fully elucidated. In the current study, we aimed to elucidate the role of microRNAs (miRNA) in regulating gene expression during REV infections. Therefore, we used a high-dose spleen necrosis virus (SNV) model of REV to inoculate one-day-old specific pathogen-free (SPF) chickens, thereby inducing congenital infections. We analyzed miRNA and mRNA expression profiles using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) in a total of 19 spleen samples that were collected at 7, 14, and 21 days post infection (dpi). The results showed that 63 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) (30 known miRNAs and 33 novel miRNAs) and 482 differentially expressed target genes (DETGs) were identified. Integration analysis identified 886 known miRNA–mRNA and 580 novel miRNA–mRNA interaction pairs, which involved miRNAs that were inversely correlated with the above DETGs. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis revealed that the DETGs were considerably enriched in the immune-relevant pathways category, such as immune system, cell growth and death, signaling molecules and interaction, signal transduction, etc. We further verified selected immune-relevant miRNA and their DETGs while using quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). Overall, our data revealed valuable immune-related miRNA–mRNA interaction information that occurred during REV infections, thereby broadening our understanding of the REV-induced immunosuppression.
