There are 34 serotypes, of which type 2 is the most pathogenic. During the infection process of Streptococcus suis, several major virulence factors are involved and play a different roles. Streptococcal meningitis is caused by the bacteria’s ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and enter the central nervous system. Therefore, studying the interaction between Streptococcus suis and cerebral microvascular endothelial cells will help reveal meningitis's pathogenic mechanism. When studying the interaction between bacteria and cells, the number of infected bacteria and the time of infection are very important. In this study, Streptococcus suis serotype two was made into bacteria liquid and counted. Then bacteria were used to infect mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells with different multiplicity of infection (1,10,100 and 200). Cells were harvested at six h, nine h,12h,18h, and 24h after infection. The total RNAs of harvested cells were extracted, and the concentration of RNA was detected. The OD260/OD280 was between 1.8~2.4, OD260/OD230 was 1.5~2.4, and the concentration was greater than 100ng/µL. Total RNAs were reverse transcribed to cDNAs used to perform quantitative PCR to detect the mRNA expression of IL-18, IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-10. The results showed that each MOI group's mRNA expression is higher than the control group with different infection times. When the multiplicity of infection is at 1, each group's relative expression of cytokines reaches a peak at 18hrs after infection. When the multiplicity of infection is at 10, each group's relative expression of cytokines reaches a peak at 12hrs after infection. When the multiplicity of infection is at 100, the relative expression of cytokines reaches a peak at 12hrs after infection. When the multiplicity of infection is at 200, the relative expressions of each cytokine reach a peak at 6hrs after infection. Based on the mRNA relative expression of each cytokine under different conditions, the optimal multiplicity of infection was 100, and the optimal infection time was 12h. The result provides a basis for the study of the pathogenic mechanism of meningitis.","PeriodicalId":231752,"journal":{"name":"Ukrainian Journal of Veterinary and Agricultural Sciences","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130826050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, livestock products remain safe for the consumer. The purpose of our work was to conduct comparative clinical trials of the efficiency of the probiotic feed additive Probion-forte in terms of productivity, blood indices, and histological structure of immune organs of chicken broilers during fattening. The clinical studies were carried out with broiler chickens of “Cobb-500” cross at the age of 2 days, which were formed into four groups (300 units in each one). In order to determine the efficiency of application, probiotic feed additives were given to chickens in different concentrations during the growing period, together with the main diet. The first group (1st) was given probiotic Probion-forte in the dose of 1 g/kg of feed, the second group (2nd) – Probion-forte in a dose of 0.5 g/kg, the third (3rd) one – a probiotic-analog “Bio plus 2B” in a dose of 0.4 g/kg; the forth (4th) group was a control group – chickens received an essential diet, without adding any feed additives. The compound feed was provided according to norms recommended for the cross “Cobb-500”, considering age. On the 15th, 30th, and 43rd day of the test, 20 units were selected for hematological, pathomorphological and microbiological tests. The productivity of birds of all studied groups was evaluated by the average daily gains, safety, feed conversion, and slaughter output. The stabilized with EDTA chicken blood was used for morphological studies, and blood serum – for biochemical and immunological studies. Comparative clinical studies have shown that adding to the main diet of broiler chickens probiotic feed additive Probion-forte at a dose of 0.5 and 1.0 g/kg throughout the growing period increases the safety and improves feed digestibility, and increases the bird’s European Efficiency Index. Based on the obtained hematological, biochemical, and immunological parameters of blood, it can be argued about the activating effect on the body of broiler chickens probiotic feed additives, namely the intensification of reanimation of free amino acids, which increases the content of the studied metabolites of lipid metabolism, which chickens use as energy and plastic material. Stimulating cellular and humoral protection, nonspecific resistance is established, confirmed by a high level of lysozyme activity in blood serum and significantly higher content of T- and B-lymphocytes, NK-cells, and γ-globulins.

In a scientific experiment on laboratory animals, it is possible to assess the drug's safety for different terms of use to determine the zone of toxic action and doses that do not cause harmful effects on health. Therefore, the work aimed to carry out pharmacological studies of the drug with methyl salicylate and dimethyl sulfoxide in the form of an ointment for treating European fallow deer, deer, dogs, and cats with mastitis, arthritis, myositis, and injuries of various origins. The toxicological characteristics of the studied ointment “Dibutalastin” based on methyl salicylate and dimethyl sulfoxide were studied in an \"acute\" study on warm-blooded animals. The average lethal dose (LD50) for intragastric administration could not be established, as the volume exceeded the permissible level. It was established that according to the “average lethal dose when entering the stomach” indicator, the veterinary medicinal product belongs to relatively non-toxic substances (toxicity class IV). The results of pharmacological studies indicate the absence of resorptive-toxic effects, sensitizing properties, and irritating effects on the mucous membranes of the eyes and skin. Pathomorphological studies of animal organs when studying the acute toxicity of the drug showed that the developed ointment with methyl salicylate and dimethyl sulfoxide does not cause pathological changes in internal organs. From the point of view of veterinary toxicology, this drug is safe.

The location near these anthropogenic factors of artificial reservoirs pollution causes the accumulation of heavy metals in the water leading to significant exceedances of permissible levels for the catch of commercial fish, poses a significant threat to the environmental situation and safety of aquaculture. Research has also revealed that fish farming technology used in the farm also determines the ingress and accumulation of heavy metals in the reservoir. In particular, it was found that the operation of non-letting ponds, the use of cascades near the highway and arable land increases the accumulation of heavy metals. According to the results of our research, the content of heavy metals in a pond located at a short distance from the road and agricultural land indicate a high increase in the concentration of toxicants in water.

The development of alternative methods of prevention and treatment of infectious diseases of poultry involves the use of preparations of natural or organic origin, which have antagonistic properties against infectious agents and are able to balance the immune response. A prominent place in the system of disease prevention and increasing the resistance of animals and poultry is the development of modern probiotic and bactericidal preparations. In view of this, we studied the influence of the synbiotic preparations “Biomagn” in combination with the disinfectant “Diolide” on the state of the T- and B-cell links of the specific immunity of broiler chickens during the period of their rearing. The preparation “Biomagn” is based on representatives of the normal commensal microflora - non-pathogenic lactic acid bacteria with antibacterial and immunomodulatory properties and additional components: magnesium chloride, chitosan, xylanase, protease, cellulase, milk thistle meal, acidity regulator, betaine and emulsifier. The specified remedy is used to ensure optimal level of metabolism, increase immune function, growth, safety of animals and poultry. The results of the research showed that the use of the synbiotic preparation “Biomagn” in combination with the disinfectant “Diolide” had a positive influence on the activity of T- and B-cell links of specific defense of broiler chickens organism during the period of their rearing. This is evidenced by an increase in the amount of T-lymphocytes (total, active and theophylline-resistant) and B-lymphocytes in the blood and an increase in their functional activity due to the redistribution of the receptor apparatus of immunocompetent cells. In particular, a decrease in the number of functionally inactive T- and B-lymphocytes in the blood and an increase in the number of cells with low and medium degree of avidity. Therefore, the use of a set of studied immunotropic preparations is a promising direction in increasing the resistance and productivity of poultry.
