  • Long-lasting post-switched plasma cells (PCs) arise mainly from germinal center (GC) reactions, but little is known about the mechanism by which GC B cells differentiate into PCs. Based on our observation that the expression of the transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer binding protein β (C/EPBβ) is associated with the emergence of post-switched PCs, we enquired whether a cell-autonomous function of C/EPBβ is involved in the program for PC development. To address this, we generated C/EPBβ-deficient mice in which the Cebpb locus was specifically deleted in B cells after transcription of the Ig γ1 constant gene segment (Cγ1). In response to in vitro stimulation, B cells from these Cebpbfl/flCγ1Cre/+ mice had defects in the induction of B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein 1 (Blimp1) and the formation of IgG1+ PCs, but not in proliferation and survival. At steady state, the Cebpbfl/flCγ1Cre/+ mice had reduced serum IgG1 titers but normal IgG2c and IgM titers. Moreover, upon immunization with T-dependent Ag, the mice produced reduced levels of Ag-specific IgG1 Ab, and were defective in the production of Ag-specific IgG1 Ab-secreting cells. These results suggest that a cell-autonomous function of C/EPBβ is crucial for differentiation of post-switched GC B cells into PCs through a Blimp1-dependent pathway.

  • 본 연구에서는 LP-BM5 murine AIDS virus에 감염된 면역 결핍동물 모델을 이용하여 실험기간 10주 동안 ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan, 유산균 및 ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan+유산균의 식이가 면역활성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 LP-BM5 murine AIDS virus에 감염으로 면역능이 떨어진 T세포 증식능은 홍삼대조군과 비교하여도 유의적으로 감소된 T 세포증식능을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났고, B 세포 증식능은 감염 대조군에 비하여 유의적으로 증가된 B 세포 증식능을 감소되었다. cytokine 생성능에서는 Th1 type cytokine중에서 IL-2, IL-12, IL-15는 감염대조군에 비하여 분비량을 증가시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, IFN-${\gamma}$는 유산균과 ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan을 각각 처리군이 혼합처리군보다 증식능이 증가하였다. TNF-${\alpha}$는 감염대조군에 비하여 유의적으로 감소하였다. Th2 cytokine 들의 분비량 측정에서 IL-4, IL-6, IL-10 측정 결과 감염대조군에서 유의적으로 억제되어 Th1/Th2 type cytokine 발현을 조절하여 면역항상성을 유지하는 것으로 보였다. 면역글로블린 분비량측정에서 IgE, IgA, IgG 모두 감염대조군에 비하여 유의적으로 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 이로서LP-BM5 murine AIDS virus에 감염된 면역 결핍동물 모델에 ${\beta}$-1,3/1,6-glucan+유산균군을 혼합처리로 면역조절의 효능이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 본 연구는 대나무 분말의 항산화 활성이 비육돈에서 면역조절 효과에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위해 실시하였으며, 이를 위해 대나무 분말 추출물의 항산화능을 검정하기 위하여, 총페놀 함량, 플라보노이드 함량 및 DHHP, ABST, hydroxyl radical 등의 소거활성능을 알아보았다. 대나무 추출물의 항산화능은 높게 나타났으며, DPPH와 ABTS, HRSA 라디칼 소거능은 12~21%였으며, 추출물의 유효성분으로 총페놀 함량은 171 mg/g이었으며, 플라보노이드 함량은 127. mg/g으로 나타났다. 다음으로 대나무 분말이 함유된 배합사료 급여시 돼지의 면역력에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 처리구에는 일반사료를 급여하였고, 시험구는 일반사료에 대나무분말을 1.0%, 2.0% 및 3.0%을 첨가하여 급여하였다. 대나무분말 첨가수준에 따라 혈액의 혈구계수 중 백혈구, 적혈구, 헤마토크리트 함량에서 유의적인 수준의 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 하지만 헤모글로빈 함량이 무처리 대조구에 비교하여 증가하였으며 특히 2~3%의 처리구에서 헤모글로빈 함량은 높게 나타났다. 혈액 내 총단백질, 혈중 알부민의 농도를 분석한 결과 처리구와 무처리구간에 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. AST, ALT 함량은 대나무 분말 처리군에서 무처리군보다 약간 높게 나타나지만 정상적인 범위내에서의 변화를 보였다. immunoglobulin에서 IgA와 IgG 농도는 무처리구에 비교하여 대나무 분말 처리구에서 높게 나타나고, IgA는 처리구 간의 차이가 나타나지 않았지만 IgG농도에서는 대나무 추출물 2%, 3% 처리구가 1% 처리구에 비해 높은 수준을 나타냈다. TNF-${\alpha}$의 경우 무첨가구와 첨가구 사이의 유의적인 차이가 없었지만, 대나무 분말 첨가구에서 interferon-${\gamma}$의 함량은 모든 첨가구에서 무처리 군보다 유의적으로 높게 나타났다. 특히 2%, 3% 처리구가 1%의 처리구 보다도 높은 interferon-${\gamma}$의 함량을 나타내었다. 이는 대나무의 페놀, 또는 플라보노이드 성분에 기초한 높은 항산화력에 의하거나, 또는 대나무에 포함된 돼지 초기 면역반응을 활성화시킬 수 있는 물질에 의한 면역활성 증강에 따른 것으로 사료된다. 결론적으로 대나무 분말의 높은 항산화력은 돼지 면역력 향상에 기여하였으며, 특히 2~3% 대나무 분말 첨가 사료는 돼지 생리활성을 크게 증강시키는 것으로 사료된다.

  • Objective: The Fusarium mycotoxins of deoxynivalenol (DON) and zerolenone (ZEN) cause health hazards for both humans and farm animals. Therefore, the main intention of this study was to reveal DON and ZEN effects on the mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and other immune related genes in the liver of piglets. Methods: In the present study, 15 six-week-old piglets were randomly assigned to the following three different dietary treatments for 4 weeks: control diet, diet containing 8 mg DON/kg feed, and diet containing 0.8 mg ZEN/kg feed. After 4 weeks, liver samples were collected and sequenced using RNA-Seq to investigate the effects of the mycotoxins on genes and gene networks associated with the immune systems of the piglets. Results: Our analysis identified a total of 249 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which included 99 upregulated and 150 downregulated genes in both the DON and ZEN dietary treatment groups. After biological pathway analysis, the DEGs were determined to be significantly enriched in gene ontology terms associated with many biological pathways, including immune response and cellular and metabolic processes. Consistent with inflammatory stimulation due to the mycotoxin-contaminated diet, the following Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathways, which were related to disease and immune responses, were found to be enriched in the DEGs: allograft rejection pathway, cell adhesion molecules, graft-versus-host disease, autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), type I diabetes mellitus, human T-cell leukemia lymphoma virus infection, and viral carcinogenesis. Genome-wide expression analysis revealed that DON and ZEN treatments downregulated the expression of the majority of the DEGs that were associated with inflammatory cytokines (interleukin 10 receptor, beta, chemokine [C-X-C motif] ligand 9), proliferation (insulin-like growth factor 1, major facilitator superfamily domain containing 2A, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2, lipase G, and salt inducible kinase 1), and other immune response networks (paired immunoglobulin-like type 2 receptor beta, Src-like-adaptor-1 [SLA1], SLA3, SLA5, SLA7, claudin 4, nicotinamide N-methyltransferase, thyrotropin-releasing hormone degrading enzyme, ubiquitin D, histone $H_2B$ type 1, and serum amyloid A). Conclusion: In summary, our results demonstrated that high concentrations DON and ZEN disrupt immune-related processes in the liver.

  • Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effects of stale maize on growth performance, immunity, intestinal morphology, and antioxidant capacity in broilers. Methods: A total of 800 one-day-old male Arbor Acres broilers (45.4±0.5 g) were blocked based on body weight, and then allocated randomly to 2 treatments with 20 cages per treatment and 20 broilers per cage in this 6-week experiment. Dietary treatments included a basal diet and diets with 100% of control maize replaced by stale maize. Results: The content of fat acidity value was higher (p<0.05) while the starch, activities of catalase and peroxidase were lower (p<0.05) than the control maize. Feeding stale maize diets reduced (p<0.05) average daily feed intake (ADFI) throughout the experiment, feed conversion ratio (FCR) during d 0 to 21 and the whole experiment as well as relative weight of liver, spleen, bursa of Fabricius and thymus (p<0.05) on d 21. Feeding stale maize diets decreased jejunum villus height (VH) and VH/crypt depth (CD) (p<0.05) on d 21 and 42 as well as ileum VH/CD on d 42. The levels of immunoglobulin G, acid α-naphthylacetate esterase positive ratios and lymphocyte proliferation on d 21 and 42 as well as lysozyme activity and avian influenza antibody H5N1 titer on d 21 decreased (p<0.05) by the stale maize. Feeding stale maize diets reduced (p<0.05) serum interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-2 on d 21 and interleukin-6 on d 21 and 42. Broilers fed stale maize diets had lower levels of (p<0.05) total antioxidative capacity on d 42, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase on d 21 and 42, but higher (p<0.05) levels of malondialdehyde on d 21 and 42. Conclusion: Feeding 100% stale maize decreased ADFI and FCR, caused adverse effects on immunity and antioxidant function and altered intestinal morphology in broilers.

  • A study was conducted with 48 weaned barrows ($28{\pm}3d$, $8.45{\pm}0.14kg$) to determine the effect of Achyranthes bidentata polysaccharide (ABPS) supplementation on pig performance, immunological, adrenal and somatotropic responses following Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge. The experiment was a $2{\times}2$ factorial design; the main factors included diet (supplementation with 0 or 500 mg/kg ABPS) and immunological challenge (LPS or saline). On d 14 and 21 of the trial, pigs were given an intraperitoneal injection with either $100{\mu}g/kg$ BW of LPS or an equivalent amount of sterile saline. Blood samples were obtained 3 h after injection for analysis of tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$), cortisol, growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and immunoglobulin G (IgG). On d 2 after LPS challenge, peripheral blood lymphocyte proliferation (PBLP) was measured. LPS administration decreased average daily feed intake (ADFI) (p<0.05), had a tendency to decrease average daily gain (ADG) (p<0.10) during both the first and second challenge periods and increased (p<0.05) feed:gain ratio only during the first challenge period. ABPS tended to improve ADG (p<0.10) during the first challenge period, and improved ADG (p<0.05) and tended to improve ADFI (p<0.10) during the second challenge period. ABPS did not affect feed:gain ratio. An interaction (p<0.05) between LPS challenge and diet was observed for the plasma concentrations of TNF-${\alpha}$, $PGE_2$ and cortisol after both LPS challenges such that, among LPS-treated pigs, pigs fed the ABPS diet were lower for these indices than those receiving the control diet. In contrast, pigs fed the ABPS diet had higher IGF-I (p<0.05) compared with those fed the control diet. No effect of diet, LPS challenge or both on GH and IgG was observed after both LPS administrations. LPS challenge increased PBLP when these cells were incubated with $8{\mu}g/ml$ of LPS during both the challenge periods, and did likewise when incubated with $8{\mu}g/ml$ of concanavalin A only after the first challenge. ABPS had no effect on PBLP. These data demonstrate that ABPS alters the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines following an immunological challenge, which might enable pigs to achieve better performance.

  • 간장 중에 존재하는 새로운 생물활성 성분을 규명하기 위해 일본식으로 제조된 시판 간장(CSP-0)과 우리나라 전통방식으로 제조된 재래식 간장으로부터 다당(KTSP-0)을 분리하여 장관면역 활성에 대하여 비교, 검토하였다. Peyer's patch 세포를 이용한 in vitro 실험에서 간장 유래 다당인 CSP-0와 KTSP-0는 IL-6 생산 자극활성을 증가시켰지만 KTSP-0가 CSP-0보다 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 또한 KTSP-0는 모든 농도에서 대조군에 비해 IgA 생산능을 유의적으로 증가시켰으나, 시판 간장 유래 다당인 CSP-0의 경우 IgA 생산증가에 큰 영향을 미치지 않은 것으로 나타났다. Peyer's patch를 경유한 골수세포 증식능에서 KTSP-0는 100 ${\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 대조군에 비해 높은 장관면역 활성을 나타냈으며, CSP-0는 골수세포 증식능이 거의 없는 것으로 확인되었다. 간장 유래 다당에 의한 in vivo 장관면역 활성을 관찰하기 위해 0.0, 0.5, 1.0 및 5.0 mg/mouse의 농도로 30일간 경구 투여하고 Peyer's patch 세포에 의한 IgA 생산능을 측정한 결과, CSP-0와 KTSP-0를 경구 투여한 mouse 군에서 농도 의존적으로 우수한 IgA 생산 증진활성을 보였으며 분변 중에 존재하는 IgA 함량을 증가시켰다. Peyer's patch 세포에 의한 IL-6 생산능을 측정한 결과, CSP-0 및 KTSP-0를 투여한 mouse의 Peyer's patch 세포들은 대조군에 비해 모두 IL-6의 생산능을 증진시켰으나 동일 투여 농도에서 KTSP-0의 효과가 더 우수하였다. 또한 KTSP-0의 경구 투여는 혈청 내 IL-6를 높게 증가시키는 반면 CSP-0는 IL-6 생산에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 본 연구를 통해 시판 간장보다 전통 재래식 간장이 높은 장관면역 활성 효과를 가지고 있는 것으로 확인되었으며, 이는 간장 제조 원료 및 제조과정과 발효에 관여하는 미생물의 차이에서 기인된 것으로 생각된다.
