Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is caused by IBD virus (IBDV), a highly infectious
lymphotropic virus that induces cytocidal effect on B lymphocytes of bursa
Fabricius. Hence, the disease has been considered to have the most impact due to its
immunosuppressive effects in young birds. However, the effects of the virus on non
B lymphocytes functions and secretion of cytokines and chemokines are poorly
characterized. On the other hand, Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is a highly
infectious virus, which contributed to the major causes of economic losses in poultry
industry. The virus can be different into several genotypes, however, velogenic NDV
are of genotypes V, VI, VII, VIII and X. Hence, understanding IBDV and NDV
immunoregulation on the host immune system will provide valuable information to
define the immunopathology of the respective viruses.
In this study, immunophenotyping of lymphocytes and productions of cytokines and
chemokines expression were analysed by using flow cytometry and GeXP/real-time
PCR assays, respectively, in order to understand the roles of B, T cells and macrophages during IBDV and NDV infections. Based on in vitro study, very
virulent IBDV strain UPM0081 was detected in monocytes-macrophage cell line,
HD11 cells as early as 6 hours post-infection. On the other hand, ConA-C1-Vick, a
chicken CD4+ and CD8+ T cell line was not responding against IBDV infection in
vitro. In vitro cytocidal effect of IBDV towards HD11 cell line showed evidence of
apoptosis where 6% of cells undergo early apoptosis at 24 hours followed by 11% of
cells undergo late apoptosis. Up-regulation of pro-inflammatory related
cytokines/chemokines and other related genes such as CXCLi1, CXCLi2, CCL4,
IL12α, IL-18, IL-1β, iNOS, TLR-3 and MHCI were detected in IBDV infected HD11
cell line. In the in vivo study, vvIBDV (UPM0081) was detected in both spleen and
bursa as early as day 2 post-infection in specific-pathogen-free (SPF) chickens based
on PCR detection. However, infiltration of Kul1+ macrophages population in spleen
and bursa was different. Expressions of cytokines, chemokines and other immunerelated
genes in both spleen and bursa were compared in this study to understand the
pathogenesis of vvIBDV infection. IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine that
commonly expressed by macrophage, was down-regulated in HD11 cells but no
significant changes were detected in the bursa and spleen of the infected chicken
throughout the study. Unlike constant increase of IL-6, IL-12α, and iNOS in bursa,
highest level of IL-6 and IL-12α were found in spleen at day 2 days post-infections
while iNOS was recorded with highest expression in spleen at day 3 post-infection.
Added to this, IL-8 (CXCLi2) and IL-18 recorded the highest level of expression in
day 3 and day 2 post-infection, respectively, in both bursa and spleen.
In the case of NDV, immunoregulation of velogenic NDV genotype VII (IBS002)
and VIII (AF2240) on chicken macrophages, B and T lymphocytes during the acute
stage of the respective virus infection in SPF chickens was characterized. Both NDV genotypes induced drastic reduction of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte and associated
with infiltration of macrophage in spleen at day 3 post-infection. The depletion of
the T lymphocytes is probably through the process of apoptosis since 37% and 39%
of ConA-C1-Vick cells undergo apoptosis at 24 and 48 hours post-infection,
respectively. In addition, gene expression profiles showed an up-regulation of CCL4,
CXCLi1, CXCLi2, IFN-γ, IL12α, IL-18, IL-1β, IL-6, iNOS, TLR-7, MHCI, IL-17F
and TNFSF13β (p<0.05). However, both genotypes show different expression
patterns where IBS002 caused a more rapid up-regulation of CXCLi2, IFN-γ, IL12α,
IL-18, IL-1β, iNOS and IL-10 at 3 days post-infection (DPI), meanwhile the
expression of CCL4, CXCLi1, IFN-γ, IL-12α, IL-1β and iNOS genes were
significantly higher in AF2240 compared to IBS002 at 4 DPI. In addition, the
expression of IL-10 was significantly higher in IBS002 infected chickens at 3 and 4
DPI compared to AF2240 infected chickens. Hence, infection with velogenic
genotype VII and VIII NDV induce cytokines and chemokines associated with
inflammatory reactions. Both the expressions of IFN-γ and CXCLi2 transcripts were
up-regulated in CD4+ T cells of AF2240 and IBS002 infected chickens. However,
IBS002 showed significantly higher up-regulation of CXCLi2 at day 1 and 3 postinfection
compared to AF2240. Furthermore, the up-regulation of IL-18 was readily
detectable in IBS002 infected CD4+ T cells at day 1 post-infection. In conclusion, the
current study demonstrated the differences in the immunophenotyping of B, T and
macrophage populations as well as the expressions of cytokines, chemokines and
immune-related genes expression in chickens infected with different genotypes of
velogenic NDV strains and vvIBDV. The findings from this study are of valuable
information for future study in understanding the immunopathology of the respective
virus infection and vaccine –induced immunity. |
