    英語, 研究論文（学術雑誌）, Glanders is a World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH)-notifiable equine disease caused by the infection of Burkholderia mallei, and is endemic in Mongolia, South Asia, Africa, and South America. While the complement fixation test (CFT) has been widely used for serodiagnosis of glanders and is considered a standard serological test, it has several limitations. These limitations include poor specificity, labor intensive techniques, variability in antigen and protocol. Consequently, indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (iELISAs) based on recombinant proteins have been developed as alternative serodiagnostic assays to address some of the challenges associated with the CFT. The accuracy of iELISA relies on the B. mallei proteins used as an antigen. Hence, to determine the best diagnostic candidate in iELISA, in terms of sensitivity and specificity, a comparison of 17 immunogenic B. mallei proteins and detergent-based whole cell lysate (WCL) was performed. According to the sensitivity and specificity on the sera from glanderous and non-glanderous Mongolian native horses, iELISA using Hcp1, GroEL, and detergent-based WCL represented the highest diagnostic accuracy. These three candidates did not have cross-reactivity to horse sera with several other equine diseases. WCL, Hcp1, and GroEL showed considerable potential as antigens for iELISA in the serodiagnosis of glanders in Mongolia. Detergent-based WCL extraction offers a consistent approach for the preparation of reliable B. mallei antigen. WCL-iELISA should be further validated in a large-scale study to meet WOAH demands.

    研究論文（学術雑誌）, A 27-mo-old, spayed female mixed-breed dog was presented with left forelimb pain, which progressed to full thickness necrosis of the soft tissues of multiple limbs. Clinical imaging and postmortem examination suggested multiple large arterial thromboemboli. Histologic examination of vascular lesions revealed markedly thickened tunica intima with polypoid intraluminal projections, which partially to entirely occluded the arterial lumen. The expanded tunica intima was comprised of intimal accumulation of Alcian blue–positive matrix with scattered spindle-to-satellite cells. These cells were positive for von Willebrand factor and vimentin but negative for α–smooth muscle actin, suggesting endothelial origin. Deposition of the intimal mucoid matrix was observed in the elastic and muscular arteries associated with regional ischemic changes. Mucoid emboli, likely from fragmentation of proliferative intimal tissue, were identified in smaller vessels supplied by affected arteries. Based on these findings, we diagnosed systemic mucoid degeneration of the arterial tunica intima. Such systemic arterial degeneration characterized by deposition of mucoid matrix in the tunica intima has not been reported previously in dogs, to our knowledge, and should be distinguished from thromboembolism and other degenerative vascular diseases.

    Introduction

    Chronic infections lead to the functional exhaustion of T cells. Exhausted T cells are phenotypically differentiated by the surface expression of the immunoinhibitory receptor, such as programmed death‐1 (PD‐1). The inhibitory signal is produced by the interaction between PD‐1 and its PD‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) and impairs the effector functions of T cells. However, the expression dynamics of PD‐L1 and the immunological functions of the PD‐1/PD‐L1 pathway in chronic diseases of pigs are still poorly understood. In this study, we first analyzed the expression of PD‐L1 in various chronic infections in pigs, and then evaluated the immune activation by the blocking assay targeting the swine PD‐1/PD‐L1 pathway.

    Methods

    In the initial experiments, anti‐bovine PD‐L1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were tested for cross‐reactivity with swine PD‐L1. Subsequently, immunohistochemical analysis was conducted using the anti‐PD‐L1 mAb. Finally, we assessed the immune activation of swine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by the blockade with anti‐PD‐L1 mAb.

    Results

    Several anti‐PD‐L1 mAbs tested recognized swine PD‐L1‐expressing cells. The binding of swine PD‐L1 protein to swine PD‐1 was inhibited by some of these cross‐reactive mAbs. In addition, immunohistochemical analysis revealed that PD‐L1 was expressed at the site of infection in chronic infections of pigs. The PD‐L1 blockade increased the production of interleukin‐2 from swine PBMCs.

    Conclusions

    These findings suggest that the PD‐1/PD‐L1 pathway could be also involved in immunosuppression in chronic infections in pigs. This study provides a new perspective on therapeutic strategies for chronic diseases in pigs by targeting immunosuppressive pathways.

    細胞株を用いたパイロトーシス制御経路の解析については、東北大学加齢医学研究所附属医用細胞資源センターより分譲していただいたTHP-1細胞を用いた。THP-1細胞はマウス単球由来の細胞株であり、フォルボールエステルにてマクロファージに分化させることができる。 RAW264.1細胞やJ774細胞と異なり、THP-1細胞はパイロトーシスに関連するタンパク質を正常に発現することが分かっている。THP-1細胞をフォルボールエステルでマクロファージに分化させる過程で、すでにCOX-2を発現することが分かったため、COX阻害薬であるインドメタシンを培地に加えて２時間処理すると、Arginase-2の遺伝子発現量が2.4倍増加することが分かった。Arginase-2は以前の実験においてパイロトーシスの誘導に関与すると示唆された遺伝子である。
    細胞内寄生菌感染動物の病理組織学的解析については、本年度はパイロトーシスに関わるタンパク質としてcleaved caspase-1, Arginase-2の発現局在を解析した。cleaved casepase-1はGasderminを活性型に変換する酵素であり、活性型Gasderminは細胞膜に孔を開け、パイロトーシスを引き起こす。解析に使用した病理切片は、本研究室に保存されている細胞内寄生菌感染動物のホルマリン固定パラフィン包埋切片を用いた。ロドコッカスエクイ感染仔馬の肺・回腸において、膿瘍を形成する好中球はArginase-2に弱陽性を示し、cleaved caspase-1の発現は認められなかった。また、ヨーネ病感染牛の回腸では、ヨーネ菌に感染している類上皮細胞などの炎症性細胞にcleaved caspase-1, Arginase-2の発現は認められなかった。
