This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Alfalfa polysaccharide (APS) on the growth performance and immune responses of broilers. A total of 400 1-day-old Avian broiler chicks were randomly divided into four treatment groups and administered intranasal with different levels of APS (0, 2.5, 5.0 or 10.0 mg/dose) on day 1 and day 14. Growth performance, phagocytic activity, T lymphocyte transformation, and serum antibody titers against the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) vaccine were examined. During the study period of 42 days, no significant differences were observed in food intake among treatment groups (P>0.05). The APS administered groups displayed a low FCR, especially the 2.5 mg groups (P<0.05). Broilers with 2.5 mg APS displayed a much higher phagocytic activity than the control group (P<0.05). At the same time, APS enhanced the T lymphocyte transformation in response to phytohaemagglutinin (PHA). The antibody titer to NDV was not influenced by APS on day 14, while it improved on day 28 and day 42, especially in the 2.5 mg group (P<0.05). And the above data suggest that APS could improve innate and cellular immune responses in broilers.
Porcine Parvovirus (PPV) and porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) often have mixed infection in the process of clinical breeding, and PCV2 infection will cause immunosuppression in pigs, which is easy to stimulate or complicated with other infectious pathogens. Haemophilus parasuis (HPS) is a typical `opportunistic" pathogen, which often leads to mixed infection with PCV2 as a secondary pathogen. In order to establish a rapid and simultaneous detection of three pathogens of PPV, PCV2 and HPS, referring to the relevant genome sequence of GenBank, specific primers were designed according to the conserved region of VP2 gene of PPV, Cap gene of PCV2 and infB gene of HPS, and the amplified fragments were cloned into the vector to construct plasmid standard. Using standard samples with different dilutions as templates, adjusting primer concentration, annealing temperature and other conditions, a real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method for PPV, PCV2 and HPS triple SYBR Green I was established. Three specific Tm peaks could be generated on the same melting curve without cross-reaction with other pathogens. The minimum detection limits of this method were 153 copies/mu L, 128 copies/mu L and 91 copies/mu L, with good specificity and repeatability, which provided technical support for rapid diagnosis of these three diseases and could be used for clinical tissue material detection.
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, Haemophilus parasuis, and Pasteurelle multocida are common pathogens of respiratory diseases in the pig industry, and they may cause secondary infections and serious economic losses to the pig industry. The clinical symptoms caused by these three pathogens are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and mix infections bring difficulties to the diagnosis of diseases. In this study, specific primers were designed on the basis of A. pleuropneumoniae Apx IV, H. parasuis Omp P2 and P. multocida PlpE gene. The expected amplified products ofA. pleuropneumoniae, H. parasuis, and P. multocida were 157, 120 and 305 bp, respectively. After the amplified fragment was cloned into a vector, a standard plasmid was constructed. By using the standard plasmid as template, a fluorescence quantitative PCR method for simultaneous detection ofA. pleuropneumoniae, H. parasuis, and P. multocida multiple SYBR Green I was established. Combined with melting curve analysis, the sensitivity, specificity, and repeatability were also evaluated. The results showed that the sensitivity of the method for detecting the three pathogens were 147, 145, and 61 copies/mu L. On the same melting curve that produced three specific Tm peaks, no cross reaction with other bacteria was observed, and the method demonstrated good specificity and repeatability. This method could be used for the simultaneous detection of the three pathogens, thus providing an effective detection tool for disease prevention and treatment.
Introduction:Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) causes immune repression and intercurrent infections in pigs, resulting in a huge economic loss to the pig breeding industry. Additionally, the spread of PCV2 in pig farms can pollute the living environment of the residents in the farm's vicinity, which increases the rate of infections. Therefore, rapid and sensitive detection methods are needed for disease prevention and timely environmental cleaning.Methods:This research describes a highly sensitive sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) that utilizes gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in a functional, specific antibody labeled probe for the detection of PCV2. Due to their high specific surface area and histocompatibility, AuNPs were used as carriers of HRP labeled anti-PCV2 antibodies to amplify the detection signal.Results:Compared to conventional sandwich ELISA procedures, this method resulted in higher sensitivity (51-fold) and a shorter assay time with a limit of detection of 195 TCID50/mL. The cross-reactivity assay demonstrated that this assay was PCV2 specific.Conclusion:The amplified Ab (HRP) labeled AuNPs probe provides a sensitive analytical approach for the determination of the traces of the PCV2 antigen in early diagnosis.
In the present study, a duplex SYBR Green real-time PCR assay was developed in order to indentify Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Haemophilus parasuis infection in one reaction, through a melting curve analysis. This method utilized two pairs of specific primers that allowed the amplification of highly conserved regions of A. pleuropneumoniae Apx IV and H. parasuis omp P2 gene. Reconstitution experiments were conducted by using PMD 19T plasmid in order to determine the sensitivity of the assay. The results showed that the Tm values of the melting curves of A. pleuropneumoniae and H. parasuis were 83.36±0.09oC and 76.48±0.17oC, respectively that could accurately distinguish these two pathogens. And no cross reaction were observed between other respiratory pathogens, which suggested a high specificity of two primers. The detection sensitivity of the assay was 127 and 96 copies/μL which was higher than that of the ordinary PCR detection methods. This rapid technique may present a simple, useful option for simultaneous detection of A. pleuropneumoniae and H. parasuis, which would be feasible and attractive for clinical samples diagnosis and epidemiological investigations.

A Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) was isolated from pigs suffered in pneumonia that can't be cured by antibiotic such as methicillin and vancomycin. It was demonstrated that baicalin, an active natural compound extracted from the traditional Chinese medicinal, possess antimicrobial activity. In the present study, we evaluate it efficacy in vitro and vivo against this isolated methicillin-resistant S.aureus (MRSA). Our findings demonstrated that baicalin can inhibit S. aureus growth in a dose-dependent manner and attenuate the biofilm formation. Scanning electron microscopies showed that cell membrane was damaged and accompany with contents leaks after treated with high concentration of baicalin. In addition, baicalin exerted inhibitory effects on the expression of S.aureus virulence-related factors. Moreover, baicalin treated mice had enhanced survival after a lethal dose of S.aureus infection compared with untreated mice. Simultaneously, the pathological tissue damage and bacterium burden were decrease in baicalin treated mice. These data demonstrated that baicalin displayed a high effectiveness in vitro and vivo against MRSA infection, suggesting that baicalin may potentially be used to treat MRSA infection.

Licorice is the most important herb used in the traditional Chinese (TCM) medicine. It was used to treat individuals with gastric or duodenal ulcers, bronchitis, cough, arthritis, adrenal insufficiency and allergies. The active substances and secondary metabolites from Licorice roots may be associated with a specific microbial agent. It is believed that many endophytic fungi from medically important plants can produce the same or similar secondary metabolites as the plant. Endophytic fungi are also thought to play an important role in plant communities by increasing fitness of the host plant. To clarify whether endophytic fungi are found in the licorice, fungi were isolated from Licorice root and characterized morphologically and using molecular identification. The morphological examination showed that the endophytic fungi from Licorice were Aspergillus and Chaetomium species. Further identification was achieved by sequence similarity comparison and phylogenetic analysis of the ITS regions. Results showed that strains L10L2 and L4 belong. to Aspergillus species, L3 identified to Chaetomium. A neighbor-joining tree showed the relationships between the isolate's sequence data and the closest identified relatives from GenBank. These fungi could have significance as a source of pharmaceutical natural products.
