The synergistic effects of orally-delivered chicken NK-lysin peptide 2 (cNK-2) or recombinant chicken IL-7 (rchIL-7) on vaccination with recombinant Eimeria elongation factor-1α (rEF-1α) against Eimeria maxima (E. maxima) infection was investigated in broiler chickens. Chickens were divided into six groups: control (CON, no Eimeria infection), non-immunized control (NC, PBS), Vaccination 1 (VAC 1, rEF-1α plus cNK-2), Vaccination 2 (VAC 2, rchIL-7 plus cNK-2), Vaccination 3 (VAC 3, rEF-1α/rchIL-7 plus cNK-2), and Vaccination 4 (VAC 4, rEF-1α/rchIL-7 plus cNK-2). All groups, except the CON and NC, were orally treated with cNK-2 for 5 days. The first immunization, except for the VAC 4 group, was performed intramuscularly on day 4, and the second immunization was given with the same concentration of components as the primary immunization one week later. The immunization of the VAC 4 group was carried out by an oral inoculation on the same days. On day 19, all chickens except the CON group, were orally challenged with E. maxima (1.0 × 10⁴ oocysts/chicken). The in vivo vaccination results showed that the VAC 1 and VAC 3 groups produced high (p < 0.05) levels of serum antibody titers to rEF-1α, and the VAC 3 showed enhanced (p < 0.05) levels of serum IL-7. Furthermore, the VAC 3 group showed significantly (p < 0.01) greater body weight gains at 6- and 9-days post-E. maxima infection (dpi) with reduced oocyst shedding at 6 dpi. The average jejunal lesion score of the NC group was 2.5 whereas the VAC 1 group showed a significantly (p < 0.05) lower lesion scores at 6 dpi. E. maxima infection significantly (P < 0.05) up-regulated the expression levels of cytokines (IL-6, IL-10 and IFN-γ) in the jejunum at 4 dpi, but those expressions were down-regulated in VAC 1 or VAC 3 groups. Moreover, the gene expression levels of Jam 2 and Occludin, were significantly (P < 0.05) decreased following E. maxima infection in jejunum at 4 dpi (NC), but their expressions were increased in the VAC 3 group. Collectively, these results showed that the efficacy of rEF-1α vaccination was significantly enhanced when rEF-1α vaccine co-immunized with chIL-7 or cNK-2.

In France during winter 2016-2017, 487 outbreaks of clade 2.3.4.4b H5N8 subtype high pathogenicity (HP) avian influenza A virus (AIV) infections were detected in poultry and captive birds. During this epizootic, HPAIV A/decoy duck/France/161105a/2016 (H5N8) was isolated and characterized in an experimental infection transmission model in conventional mule ducks. To investigate options to possibly protect such ducks against this HPAIV, three vaccines were evaluated in controlled conditions. The first experimental vaccine was derived from the hemagglutinin gene of another clade 2.3.4.4b A(H5N8) HPAIV. It was injected at three weeks of age, either alone (Vac1) or after a primer injection at day-old (Vac1 + boost). The second vaccine (Vac2) was a commercial bivalent adjuvanted vaccine containing an expressed hemagglutinin modified from a clade 2.3.2 A(H5N1) HPAIV. Vac2 was administered as a single injection at two weeks of age. The third experimental vaccine (Vac3) also incorporated a homologous 2.3.4.4b H5 HA gene and was administered as a single injection at three weeks of age. Ducks were challenged with HPAIV A/decoy duck/France/161105a/2016 (H5N8) at six weeks of age. Post-challenge virus excretion was monitored in vaccinated and control birds every 2-3 days for two weeks using real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and serological analyses (haemagglutination inhibition test against H5N8, H5 ELISA and AIV ELISA) were performed. Vac1 abolished oropharyngeal and cloacal shedding to almost undetectable levels, whereas Vac3 abolished cloacal shedding only (while partially reducing respiratory shedding) and Vac2 only partly reduced the respiratory and intestinal excretion of the challenge virus. These results provided relevant insights in the immunogenicity of recombinant H5 vaccines in mule ducks, a rarely investigated hybrid between Pekin and Muscovy duck species that has played a critical role in the recent H5 HPAI epizootics in France.

Co-administration of chicken IL-7 or NK-lysin peptide 2 enhances the efficacy of Eimeria elongation factor-1α vaccination against Eimeria maxima infection in broiler chickens

This study was conducted to develop a recombinant Eimeria elongation factor-1α (EF-1α)-vaccination strategy against Eimeria maxima (E. maxima) infection by co-administering with chicken IL-7 (chIL-7) or chicken NK-lysin peptide 2 (cNK-2) in commercial broiler chickens. Chickens were divided into the following 5 groups: control (CON, no Eimeria infection), nonimmunized control (NC, PBS plus Montanide ISA 78 VG), Vaccination 1 (VAC1, 100 µg of recombinant EF-1α plus Montanide ISA 78 VG), Vaccination 2 (VAC2, VAC1 plus 1 µg of chIL-7), and Vaccination 3 (VAC3, VAC2 plus 5 µg of cNK-2 peptide). The first immunization except the cNK-2 injection was performed intramuscularly on day 4, and the secondary immunization was given with the same concentration of components as the primary immunization 1 wk later. All chickens except the CON group were orally inoculated with freshly prepared E. maxima (1.0 × 10⁴ oocysts per chicken) oocysts on Day 19. The results of the in vivo vaccination trial showed that chickens of all groups immunized with recombinant EF-1α antigen (VAC1, VAC2, and VAC3) showed higher serum antibody levels to EF-1α, and co-injection with chIL-7 further increased the serum IL-7 level in the VAC2 and VAC3 groups. Chickens in the VAC2 group showed significantly (P < 0.01) higher body weight gains at 6 and 9 d post-E. maxima challenge infection (dpi) with reduced gut lesions in the jejunum at 6 dpi. The VAC3 group showed reduced fecal oocyst shedding compared to the nonimmunized and infected chickens (NC). At 4 dpi, E. maxima infection significantly (P < 0.05) up-regulated the expression levels of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-β and IL-17F) and type Ι cytokines (IFN-γ and IL-10) in the jejunum (NC), but the expression of these cytokines was significantly (P < 0.05) down-regulated in the VAC1, VAC2, and VAC3 groups. Furthermore, E. maxima challenge infection significantly (P < 0.05) down-regulated the expressions of jejunal tight junction (TJ) proteins (Jam2 and Occludin) at 4 dpi, but their expression was up-regulated in the VAC2 and VAC3 groups. Collectively, these results show the protective effects of the EF-1α recombinant vaccine, which can be further enhanced by co-injection with chIL-7 or cNK-2 peptide against E. maxima infection.
