A prospective, observational, and case-control study was conducted on 56 calves diagnosed with NCD. Mean concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione<span> (GSH), mean platelet volume<span> (MPV), platelet distribution width<span> (PDW), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine (Crea) were measured. Furthermore, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were also calculated for SIRS survivors [SIRS (survivor)] and non-survivors [SIRS (non-survivor)] induced by NCD. A prognostic cut-off value for predicting the prognosis of the SIRS’s induced by NCD was obtained via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Upon admission, the SIRS (non-survivor) calves had significantly higher (P < .001) average levels of IL-6, MDA, BUN, Crea, MPV, and PDW compared to the SIRS (survivor) calves and significantly lower (P < .001) average levels of GSH. Despite an apparent increase in the NLR and PLR values of calves diagnosed with SIRS, no significant difference was found between the survival and non-survivor SIRS cases. Positive predictive values (PPVs) for survival were determined as 100 %, 100 %, 80 %, 100 %, 80 %, and 80 %, respectively, using cut-off values of IL-6 (≤259.67 ng/L), MDA (≤2.87 nmol/mL), MPV (≤12.5 fL), PDW (≤34.25 %), BUN (≤168.3 mg/dL), and Crea (≤2.11 mg/dL). The determined threshold values are those obtained upon admission to the hospital. Based on the sensitivity, specificity, and PPVs derived from the ROC analysis, it has been concluded that IL-6, MDA, MPV, PDW, BUN, and Crea are the most relevant biomarkers used for predicting the prognosis of NCD-induced SIRS in calves. Furthermore, it is also noteworthy that IL-6 exhibited the highest effectiveness among all biomarkers.</span></span></span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":23511,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary immunology and immunopathology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135714567","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We hypothesized that CBD and THC would suppress stimulated cytokine expression and that both cannabinoid receptors would be expressed in canine immune cells. Surprisingly, cannabinoid suppressive effects in canine PMBCs were quite modest, with the most robust effect occurring at early stimulation times and predominantly by THC. We further showed that cannabinoid-mediated suppression was dog- and vehicle-dependent with CBD and THC delivered in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) producing more immune suppressive effects as compared to ethanol (ETOH). PCR, flow cytometry, and immunohistochemical staining demonstrated that both CB<sub>1</sub> and CB<sub>2</sub> are expressed in canine immune cells.

While vaccines are available, natural differences in background immunity between breeds within species and between individuals within herds suggest that genetic differences may be able to be exploited in marker-assisted selection as an aid to disease control. The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is an important component in immune recognition with considerable genetic variability. In this study, associations between the MHC and resistance to BJD were explored in dairy cattle across two herds in which some of the cattle had been vaccinated with Silirum® (n = 540 cows). A BJD susceptible animal was exposed to MAP and became infected, while a resistant animal was exposed but did not become infected. There are different ways to define both exposure and infection, with different levels of stringency, therefore many classifications of the same set of animals are possible and were included in the analysis. The polymorphic regions of major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC I) and class II (MHC II) genes were amplified from the genomic DNA by PCR and sequenced, targeting exons 2 and 3 of the classical and non-classical MHC I genes and exon 2 from the DRB3, DQA1, DQA2 + 3 and DQB MHC II genes. The frequencies of MHC I and MHC II haplotypes and alleles were determined in susceptible and resistant populations. In unvaccinated animals, seven MHC I haplotypes and seven MHC II haplotypes were associated with susceptibility while two MHC I and six MHC II haplotypes were associated with resistance (<em>P</em> < 0.05). In vaccinated animals, two MHC I and three MHC II haplotypes were associated with susceptibility, while one MHC I and two MHC II haplotypes were associated with resistance (<em>P</em> < 0.05). The alleles in significant haplotypes were also identified. Case definitions with higher stringency resulted in fewer animals being included in the analyses, but the power to detect an association was not reduced and there was an increase in strength and consistency of associations.

Information on the specific treatment option(s) for CPV diseases (CPVD) is unachievably little. So, the treatment is mainly supportive one. Disruption of dog's innate immune system in viral diseases simply occurs; presumably, the CPV-2 may change the level of some TLRs, interleukins, CD4 and CD8 in the leukocytes of CPVD dogs, and disruptive activities of these immune molecules might be attributable to severe CPVD in dogs. Study on the role of the key immune molecules in CPVD is rare. Herein, by conducting and relating the clinical, para-clinical, immunological and molecular diagnostic tests, we tried to establish how some key immune molecules behave in blood of parvovirus affected dogs. As such, in the 1st study, the mRNA levels of TLR2, TLR4, TLR9, IL-1β, IL-6, CD4 and CD8 genes in the leukocytes of CPVD were assessed with quantitative (q)RT-PCR along with CPV-2 detection by rapid immunochromatography and PCR tests. In a 2nd study, the same measurements as in the 1st study were evaluated in two groups of mild versus severe clinical signs of CPVD. Both in the 1st and the 2nd studies leukopenia, much more pronounced in the severe CPVD, and immune dysregulation were observed. In the 1st study, a noticeable increase in the mRNA levels of TLR2 and TLR4 was detected with a slight decrease in TLR9 and a significant decrease in the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, CD4 and CD8 in leukocytes of CPV-infected dogs. Compared to the mild CPVD, the intense of downregulating effects on those immune molecules in the 2nd study was remarkably much more pronounced in the severe CPVD. Overall, it proves strong immune dysregulation and suppression/incompetence and potential T-cells exhaustion in severely CPV-2-affected dogs. Technically and clinically, this would be substantially applicable in canine medicine. By targeting those key immune molecules and their signaling pathways, new clinicodiagnostic approaches for CPVD can be evolved, and biotechnicoclinically this would be substantially applicable in all physiopathological conditions of dogs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":23511,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary immunology and immunopathology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71522742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
