Abstract The objective of the trial was to evaluate the effect of a novel multi-strains yeast fractions product (MsYF) on performance, digestibility, and gene expression of several cytokines in weanling piglets reared under low sanitary environment (uncleaned). In total, 160 piglets weaned at 24 days (7.21 ± 1.05kg) were distributed in 2 treatments according to body weight and sex: control (CON), and MsYF (CON+2kg/ton of yeast product in the first 14 days post weaning; CON+400g/ton of product between days 14 and 42). Individual body weight (BW) and feed intake (FI) were measured on days 1, 14 and 42. Apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) was estimated at the end of the experiment using chromium oxide as indigestible marker. On days 7, 14 and 42, 6 piglets per treatment were slaughtered and sampled from the mid-jejunum to measure cytokines mRNA gene expression: tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), interleukin 1 receptor 1 (IL-1-R1), interleukin 10 (IL-10), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), interleukin 12 (IL-12), interferon gamma (INF- γ), and (GATA3). Data were analyzed by ANOVA using the T-test procedure of SAS (SAS Inst. Inc., Cary, US) with treatment as main effect. Piglets fed MsYF had greater (P < 0.05) final BW and greater (P < 0.01) ADG compared to piglets fed CON. Piglets fed MsYF tended to have greater (P < 0.1) ATTD of DM than piglets fed CON. Supplementation of MsYF down-regulated the expressions of TNF-α, IL-6, and TLR2 on days 7 and 14 (P < 0.01 and P < 0.1 for TNF-α, P < 0.01 and P < 0.001 for IL-6, and P < 0.0001 and P < 0.001 for TLR2) while a reduced (P < 0.01) INF-γ expression occurred in piglets fed MsYF at day 14. In conclusion, supplementation with yeast improved performance, DM digestibility, and may modulate intestinal mucosa inflammation of weanling piglets under low sanitary environment.

Dietary glutamic acid (GLU) is used as a feed additive because of its functional characteristics that may affect the growth performance and health of pigs. This study was carried out to determine the effects of dietary GLU on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, immune responses, and intestinal health of weaned pigs. A total of ninety-six weaned pigs (8.07 ± 1.17 kg of body weight; 28 days of age) were assigned to two dietary treatments (8 pigs/pen; 6 replicates/treatment) in a randomized complete block design (block: body weight): (1) a typical weaner diet (CON) and (2) CON supplemented with 0.5% GLU. The experimental period was for 4 weeks. All data and sample collections were performed at the specific time points during the experimental period. Pigs fed GLU had higher average daily gain and average daily feed intake for the first two weeks and nutrient digestibility than pigs fed CON. In addition, dietary GLU increased villus height to crypt depth ratio, number of goblet cells, and ileal gene expression of claudin family and occludin compared with CON, but decreased serum TNF-α and IL-6 and ileal gene expression of TNF-α. Moreover, pigs fed GLU had increased relative composition of bacterial communities of genus Prevotella and Anaerovibrio and decreased genus Clostridium and Terrisporobacter compared with those fed CON. This study suggests that dietary GLU influences growth performance and health of weaned pigs by modulating nutrient digestibility, intestinal morphology, ileal gene expression of tight junction proteins and cytokines, immune responses, and microbial community in the gut.

Helicobacter pyloriand proinflammatory cytokines have a direct stimulatory effect on gastrin release from isolated G cells, but little is known about the mechanism by which these factors regulate gastrin gene expression. We explored whether tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1 directly regulate gastrin gene expression and, if so, by what mechanism. TNF-α and IL-1 significantly increased gastrin mRNA in canine G cells to 181 ± 18% and 187 ± 28% of control, respectively, after 24 h of treatment. TNF-α and IL-1 stimulated gastrin promoter activity to a maximal level of 285 ± 12% and 415 ± 26% of control. PD-98059 (a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitor), SB-202190 (a p38 kinase inhibitor), and GF-109203 (a protein kinase C inhibitor) inhibited the stimulatory action of both cytokines on the gastrin promoter. In conclusion, both cytokines can directly regulate gastrin gene expression via a mitogen-activated protein kinase- and protein kinase C-dependent mechanism. These data suggest that TNF-α and IL-1 may play a direct role in Helicobacter pylori-induced hypergastrinemia.

ABSTRACT Infection of interleukin-10 (IL-10)-nonexpressing (IL-10−/−) mice with Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi (AS) leads to exacerbated pathology in female mice and death in a proportion of them. Hypoglycemia, hypothermia, and loss in body weight were significantly greater in female IL-10−/−mice than in male knockout mice and all wild-type (WT) mice during the acute phase of infection. At this time, both female and male IL-10−/− mice produced more gamma interferon (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and IL-12p40 mRNA than their respective WT counterparts. Inactivation of IFN-γ in IL-10−/− mice by the injection of anti-IFN-γ antibodies or by the generation of IL-10−/− IFN-γ receptor−/− double-knockout mice resulted in reduced mortality but did not affect body weight, temperature, or blood glucose levels. The data suggest that IFN-γ-independent pathways may be responsible for these pathological features of P. chabaudimalaria and may be due to direct stimulation of TNF-α by the parasite. Since male and female knockout mice both produce more inflammatory cytokines than their WT counterparts, it is likely that the mortality seen in females is due to the nature or magnitude of the response to these cytokines rather than the amount of IFN-γ or TNF-α produced.

<b><i>Background:</i></b> Predisposition to hyperthyroidism may be influenced by functional gene polymorphisms in tumor necrosis factor-α (<i>TNF-α</i>), interleukin-1 (<i>IL-1</i>), interleukin-4 (<i>IL-4</i>), interleukin-6 (<i>IL-6</i>), and interleukin-10 (<i>IL-10</i>). However, the results of the studies published so far remain discrepant, so we conducted a meta-analysis to more robustly investigate relationships between <i>TNF-α</i>/<i>IL-1/IL-4/IL-6/IL-10</i> polymorphisms and predisposition to hyperthyroidism. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A comprehensive literature retrieval from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, WanFang, VIP, and CNKI was endorsed by the authors, and 38 studies were found to be eligible for pooled meta-analyses. <b><i>Results:</i></b> We found that genotypic frequencies of <i>TNF-α</i> −308 G/A, <i>IL-1A</i> −889 C/T, <i>IL-6</i> −174 G/C, <i>IL-6</i> −572 G/C, <i>IL-10</i> −819 C/T, and <i>IL-10</i> −1082 A/G polymorphisms among cases were significantly different from those among controls. Moreover, we also found that genotypic frequencies of <i>TNF-α</i> −308 G/A and <i>IL-6</i> −174 G/C polymorphisms among cases of Caucasian origin were significantly different from those among Caucasian controls, and genotypic frequencies of <i>IL-1A</i> −889 C/T, <i>IL-1B</i> −511 C/T, <i>IL-6</i> −174 G/C, <i>IL-6</i> −572 G/C, and <i>IL-10</i> −1,082 A/G polymorphisms among cases of Asian origin were also significantly different from those among Asian controls. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> This meta-analysis suggests that <i>TNF-α</i> −308 G/A, <i>IL-1A</i> −889 C/T, <i>IL-1B</i> −511 C/T, <i>IL-6</i> −174 G/C, <i>IL-6</i> −572 G/C, <i>IL-10</i> −819 C/T, and <i>IL-10</i> −1,082 A/G polymorphisms may influence predisposition to hyperthyroidism in certain ethnic groups.

Mucosal Leishmaniasis

The influence of antimoniate treatment on specific anti-protozoan T-cell responses was evaluated in a 48-year-old male patient diagnosed with mucosal leishmaniasis and Chagas disease infection. Before and after treatment, PBMC (peripheral blood mononuclear cells) were cultured in the absence or presence of Leishmania braziliensis or Trypanosoma cruzi live parasites, their soluble antigens, or PHA (phytohaemagglutinin). Cytokines were measured and Treg (T regulatory) cell percentages were quantified. Before treatment, PBMC were able to produce higher amounts of TNF-α, IL-6 (Interleukin-6), and IL-10 (Interleukin-10) but lower amounts of IL-12 (Interleukin-12) in response to culture stimulation. However, after treatment, there was a down-modulation of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 cytokines but an up-modulation in IL-12 production. PBMC had the ability to produce TNF-α only against live parasites or PHA. There was an overall decrease of circulating Treg cells after treatment. In mixed Leishmaniasis and Chagas disease infection, treatment with antimoniate could modulate immune responses toward a more protective profile to both diseases.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have gained attraction not only in the field of regenerative medicine but also in the field of autoimmune disease therapies or organ transplantation due to their immunoregulatory and/or immunosuppressive features. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a crucial role in initiating and regulating immune reactions by promoting antigen-specific T cell activation. In this study, we investigated the effect of human jaw periosteal progenitor cells (JPCs) seeded in beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds on monocyte-derived DC differentiation. Significantly lower numbers of differentiated DCs were observed in the presence of normal (Co) and osteogenically induced (Ob) JPCs-seeded β-TCP constructs. Gene expression analysis revealed significantly lower interleukin-12 subunit p35 (IL-12p35) and interleukin-12 receptor beta 2 (IL-12Rβ2) and pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) levels in DCs under Ob conditions, while interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene levels were significantly increased. Furthermore, in the presence of JPCs-seeded β-TCP constructs, interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene expression was significantly induced in DCs, particularly under Ob conditions. Analysis of DC protein levels shows that granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) was significantly upregulated in coculture groups. Our results indicate that undifferentiated and osteogenically induced JPCs-seeded β-TCP constructs have an overall inhibitory effect on monocyte-derived DC maturation.

The transcription factor NF-κB is an essential regulator of the innate immune response that functions as the first line of defense against infections. Activation of the innate immune response by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) triggers production of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) followed by interleukin-1 (IL-1). The IL-1 receptor associated kinase-1 (IRAK-1) is an integral component of the LPS, TNF-α, and IL-1 signaling pathways that regulate NF-κB. Thus we hypothesized that IRAK-1 coordinates cellular NF-κB responses to LPS, TNF-α, and IL-1. In contrast to TNF-α where IRAK-1 subcellular localization does not change, treatment with LPS or IL-1 leads to a loss in cytoplasmic IRAK-1 with a coordinate increase in plasma membrane associated modified IRAK-1. In fibroblasts lacking the type 1 TNF-α receptor (TNF R1), IRAK-1 turnover is altered and modification of IRAK-1 in the plasma membrane is decreased in response to LPS and IL-1, respectively. When NF-κB controlled gene expression is measured, fibroblasts lacking TNF R1 are hyperresponsive to LPS, whereas a more variable response to IL-1 is seen. Further analysis of the LPS response revealed that plasma membrane-associated IRAK-1 is found in Toll 4, IL-1, and TNF R1-containing complexes. The data presented herein suggest a model whereby the TNF R1-IRAK-1 interaction integrates the cellular response to LPS, TNF-α, and IL-1, culminating in a cell poised to activate TNF-α-dependent NF-κB controlled gene expression. In the absence of TNF R1-dependent events, exposure to LPS or IL-1 leads to hyperactivation of the inflammatory response.

AbstractCopper is known to induce oxidative stress in a number of models. It was shown that many pathophysiological events were associated with oxidative stress. Further, oxidative stress can increase gene expression of cytokines and of metalloproteinases. We previously found that copper toxic effects in isolated perfused rat livers were associated with significant oxidative stress (as assessed by lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation and oxidative DNA damage, particularly at concentration of 0.03 mM of Cu2+ in the perfusate). Here we investigated gene expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-10 (IL-10); matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in frozen liver tissue samples by the real-time PCR assay. Compared to controls, copper at concentration of 0.01 mM did not affect gene expression of TNF-α, IL-10, MMP-2 and MMP-9, whereas copper at concentration of 0.03 mM significantly decreased gene expression of all the four TNF-α, IL-10, MMP-2 and MMP-9 by 69%, 81%, 43%, and 62%, respectively. These results suggest that copper-induced oxidative stress in the isolated rat liver can lead to the suppression of gene expression. Because TNF-α and metalloproteinases are involved also in liver regeneration, the suppression of these genes by copper may be one of the mechanisms by which acute intoxication of animals and humans with copper may impair regenerative capability of the liver.

The aim of this study was to investigate the real impact of dietary lipids on metabolic and inflammatory response in rat white adipose tissue. Male healthy Wistar rats were fed ad libitum with a control diet (CON, n=12) or with an adjusted high-fat diet (HFD, n=12) for 12 weeks. Oral glucose and insulin tolerance tests were performed during the last week of the protocol. Plasma fatty acid, lipid profile, body adiposity, and carcass chemical composition were analyzed. Plasma concentration of leptin, adiponectin, C-reactive protein (CRP), TNF-α, IL-6, and monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP-1) was measured. Periepididymal adipose tissue was employed to evaluate TNF-α, MCP-1, and adiponectin gene expression as well as NF-κB pathway and AKT proteins. Isocaloric intake of the adjusted HFD did not induce hyperphagia, but promoted an increase in periepididymal (HFD = 2.94 ± 0.77 vs. CON = 1.99 ± 0.26 g/100 g body weight, p = 0.01) and retroperitoneal adiposity (HFD = 3.11 ± 0.81 vs. CON = 2.08 ± 0.39 g/100 g body weight, p = 0.01) and total body lipid content (HFD = 105.3 ± 20.8 vs. CON = 80.5 ± 7.6 g carcass, p = 0.03). Compared with control rats, HFD rats developed glucose intolerance (p=0.01), dyslipidemia (p = 0.02) and exhibited higher C-reactive protein levels in response to the HFD (HFD = 1002 ± 168 vs. CON = 611 ± 260 ng/mL, p = 0.01). The adjusted HFD did not affect adipokine gene expression or proteins involved in inflammatory signaling, but decreased AKT phosphorylation after insulin stimulation in periepididymal adipose tissue (p = 0.01). In this study, nutrient-adjusted HFD did not induce periepididymal adipose tissue inflammation in rats, suggesting that the composition of HFD differently modulates inflammation in rats, and adequate micronutrient levels may also influence inflammatory pathways.
