Phytochemical control of poultry coccidiosis: a review

Nahed A. El-Shall et al.

Summary: Avian coccidiosis is a serious parasitic disease in chickens caused by Eimeria protozoa. It leads to intestinal damage, poor growth, and increased susceptibility to other diseases. While drugs and vaccines have been used to control the disease, natural alternatives like herbal medicine have emerged as safe and effective options. Herbal additives have been found to inhibit the development of Eimeria species, reduce oocyst counts, and improve intestinal health.

Coccidiosis: Recent Progress in Host Immunity and Alternatives to Antibiotic Strategies

Youngsub Lee et al.

Summary: This review summarizes the current understanding of the host immune response to avian coccidiosis and discusses various non-antibiotic strategies being developed for coccidiosis control. The use of immune-based strategies can improve host defense against parasites and reduce intestinal damage caused by parasite-induced inflammation.

Granzyme B Inhibition by Tofacitinib Blocks the Pathology Induced by CD8 T Cells in Cutaneous Leishmaniasis

Fernanda O. Novais et al.

Summary: The study shows that tofacitinib can reduce CD8 T cell-mediated immunopathology in cutaneous leishmaniasis, protecting mice from severe disease lesions without affecting T cell immune responses or parasite control. This suggests that targeting IL-15 with topical tofacitinib application could be an effective strategy for treating cutaneous leishmaniasis in combination with antiparasitic drugs.

Role of Cytokines in Experimental and Human Visceral Leishmaniasis

Mukesh Samant et al.

Summary: Cytokines play a crucial role in the immune response to VL, affecting the formation of protective and non-protective immunities during infection. Understanding the interaction between cytokine response and various immune cells is essential for developing appropriate immunotherapies against VL. Different cytokines have varying effects on disease progression or host protection in different animal models and humans, influencing the clinical outcomes and potential diagnostic and therapeutic interventions for VL.

High resistance to Toxoplasma gondii infection in inducible nitric oxide synthase knockout rats

Zhen-Jie Wang et al.

Summary: The knockout of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in SD rats led to complete resistance to Toxoplasma gondii infection, as high levels of ROS damaged parasitophorous vacuole and mitochondrial membranes, inducing pyroptosis and cell death in peritoneal macrophages infected with T. gondii. This discovery highlights a strong link between NO and ROS in immunity to T. gondii infection, showcasing a potentially novel and effective backup innate immunity system.

Hailiang Yu et al.

Summary: The T cell-mediated immune response following Eimeria tenella infection in chickens showed dynamic changes in cytokine expression at different time points, with Th1 and Treg cells mainly participating in the immune response in the later stage (6 and 8 dpi), while Th17 cells played a role mainly in the early stages of infection (2 and 4 dpi).

Kinetics of the Cellular and Transcriptomic Response to Eimeria maxima in Relatively Resistant and Susceptible Chicken Lines

Abi Bremner et al.

Summary: This study compared the kinetics of immune responses in two inbred lines of White Leghorn chickens showing differential resistance or susceptibility to Eimeria maxima infection. The findings suggest that early induction of IFN-gamma and IL-10 responses may play a key role in resistance to E. maxima, with differences observed in the timing and magnitude of cytokine transcription responses between the two lines.

Dual RNA-seq transcriptome analysis of caecal tissue during primary Eimeria tenella infection in chickens

Arnar K. S. Sandholt et al.

Summary: The study found that the chicken immune system is activated from day 3 after infection and peaks on day 10, while the gene expression of E. tenella during infection also changes, showing an increase in protein synthesis and metabolism, as well as a decrease in DNA and RNA processing genes.

Overview of the Use of Probiotics in Poultry Production

Katarzyna Krysiak et al.

Summary: Probiotics are feed additives that have become popular in poultry production as antibiotic growth promoters have been banned. They have many advantages, such as stimulating the host microflora and immunomodulation. Probiotics have been proven to be helpful in fighting bacterial diseases and zoonoses, as well as improving poultry product quality.

Summary: The study demonstrated that treatment with nitric oxide induced early egress of Eimeria tenella sporozoites in vitro, without causing damage to host cells, and the virulence of egressed sporozoites was significantly lower than fresh sporozoites.
