ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of Maxingshigantang enema in the treatment of infant viral pneumonia by comparing related indicators, and comprehensively evaluate the effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) enema on the intestinal microenvironment. MethodSixty infants with viral pneumonia were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups. The dosage of enema drugs in high- (0.117 g·mL-1) and low-concentration (0.07 g·mL-1) TCM enema groups was same (3.5 g per time), and the control group received normal saline enema, once a day for 7 days. Finally, the curative effect, total symptom score, salivary secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA), human beta defensin 2 (hBD2) and fecal calprotectin (CALP) of each group were statistically analyzed by SPSS 21.0, and the clinical efficacy of TCM enema in treating children with pneumonia and asthma was comprehensively evaluated. ResultThe curative effect of high-concentration TCM enema group (total effective rate 100%, χ2=7.059) was equivalent to that of low-concentration TCM enema group (total effective rate 95%, χ2=4.329), higher than that of control group (total effective rate 70%) (P<0.017). After treatment, compared with control group and low-concentration TCM enema group, high-concentration TCM enema group had higher total symptom score of children (P<0.05, P<0.01). The proportion of coccobacillus was reduced in three groups, with high- and low-concentration TCM enema groups lower than control group (P<0.05). The salivary sIgA concentration was increased in three groups (P<0.05), with high-concentration TCM enema group higher than the other groups (P<0.01). The hBD2 concentration was decreased in three groups, with high- and low-concentration TCM enema groups lower than control group (P<0.05). The three groups reduced the fecal CALP concentration, and high-concentration TCM enema group had the highest reduction, followed by low-concentration TCM enema group (P<0.01). ConclusionTCM enema outweighs western medicine in improving clinical symptoms, intestinal flora, and mucosal immune function, and reducing inflammation in children, and the high-concentration TCM enema group has better curative effect. Therefore, with easiness to operate, high compliance, and significant therapeutic effect, TCM enema is worthy of clinical promotion.

ABSTRACT

Porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) is a major disease of pigs that inflicts heavy losses on the global pig industry. The etiologic agent is the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), which is assigned to the genus Alphacoronavirus in the family Coronaviridae. This review consists of five parts, the first of which provides a brief introduction to PEDV and its epidemiology. Part two outlines the passive immunity in new born piglets and the important role of colostrum, while the third part summarizes the characteristics of the immune systems of pregnant sows, discusses the concept of the "gut-mammary gland-secretory IgA(sIgA) axis" and the possible underpinning mechanisms, and proposes issues to be addressed when designing a PEDV live vaccine. The final two parts summarizes the advances in the R&D of PEDV vaccines and prospects future perspectives on prevention and control of PEDV, respectively.

ABSTRACT

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Antimicrobial resistance has been reported in the drugs used for the treatment of typhoid fever. The immunomodulatory substance β-glucan can be used as an alternative therapy as it potentiates host immunity. The aims of this study are to observe the effect of Candida albicans cell wall (CCW) extract towards host immunity (TCD8+ and TCD4+ cells in spleen, intestinal sIgA) and its capacity to kill Salmonella in the intestine and liver of typhoid fever mice models. METHODS: Typhoid fever mice models were created by infecting mice with S. Typhimurium orally. Mice were divided into four groups: the Non-Infected, Infected, CCW (infected mice treated with 300 µg CCW extract/mouse once a day), and Ciprofloxacin groups (infected mice treated with 15 mg/kg BW ciprofloxacin twice a day). RESULTS: Secretory IgA (sIgA) concentrations of mice in the CCW group remained unchanged. However, their TCD4+ and TCD8+ cells increased substantially compared to those in the Non-Infected group. In the Ciprofloxacin group, sIgA concentrations increased markedly compared to those in the Non-Infected and CCW groups; TCD4+ and TCD8+ cells also increased significantly compared to those in the Infected Group, but not significant compared to those in the CCW group. Colonization of S. Typhimurium in the intestine and liver decreased significantly in the CCW and Ciprofloxacin groups compared to that in the Infected group, with the lowest reduction being found in the Ciprofloxacin group. CONCLUSIONS The inhibition of S. Typhimurium colonization by CCW is associated with the increase in TCD4+ and TCD8+ cells.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Young swimmers are particularly susceptible to the onset of oral diseases. Objective To evaluate the oral health status in young competitive and non-competitive swimmers, involving an assessment of salivary cariogenic bacteria and secretory IgA (S-IgA) concentration. Material and Methods Before training sessions (T1), 54 competitive and 69 non-competitive swimmers had the following parameters assessed: decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT), Plaque Index (PlI), and Gingival Index (GI). At T1 and after training sessions (T2), stimulated saliva was collected and microbiological and immunological analyses were performed. Results Competitive swimmers trained 2.02±0.09 hours 5 times a week, while non-competitive swimmers trained 2.03±0.18 hours a week. A total of 14.7% of competitive swimmers suffered dental trauma related to sports. Only 11.76% of the competitive swimmers took a daily dose of fluoride, against 32.65% of non-competitive swimmers (p=0.029). Neither group followed an established diet or presented statistically significant differences in terms of nutritional supplement drink and chocolate intake. There were statistically significant differences in terms of oral hygiene. No significant difference in clinical indexes (DMFT, PlI, and GI) was present. S. mutans was harbored by 18.6% of competitive and the 32.2% of non-competitive swimmers. S. sobrinus was detected in 22.03% of competitive and 91.6% of non-competitive swimmers (p<0.05). S. sanguinis was found only in the saliva of competitive swimmers. The average S-IgA of competitive swimmers decreased significantly at T2 (p<0.05). The pool water had a daily average pH of 7.22. Conclusions Microbial markers, immune status and sporting characteristics are important for establishing guidelines for management of training load in order to minimize physical stress and the risk of oral infection.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of Saccharomyces boulardii ( S. boulardii) on the col-onization of Helicobacter suis ( H. suis) in stomach and the formation of gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) during H. suis infection. Methods Sixty C57BL/6 wild type mice were randomly divided into six groups. The mice in group A and group B were respectively given sterile distilled water and S. boulardii twice by gavage and then infected with H. suis for one week. The mice in group C and group E were given sterile phos-phate buffer saline by gavage for one week and then respectively given sterile distilled water and S. boulardii by gavage twice a week for 12 weeks. The mice in group D and group F were infected with H. suis for one week and then respectively given sterile distilled water and S. boulardii by gavage twice a week for 12 weeks. Serum and gastric tissue samples were collected from each mouse. Results The bacterial loads of H. suis in the stomachs of mice in group B were significantly lower than those in group A. No significant differences in the levels of se-creted IgA( sIgA) in serum and gastric tissue samples and the expression of IFN-γat mRNA level in gastric mu-cosa samples were found between the two groups. The expression of H. suis 16S RNA and the formation of gastric lymphoid follicles were detected in mice in groups D and F. The levels of sIgA in serum and gastric tissue sam-ples and the expression of IFN-γ and CXCL13 at mRNA level in gastric mucosa samples increased significantly in groups D and F as compared with groups C and E. Compared with the mice in group D, the bacterial loads of H. suis in stomachs, the numbers of MALT per unit length of gastric mucosa and the expression of IFN-γ and CXCL13 at mRNA level in gastric mucosa decreased significantly in mice from group F, but the levels of sIgA in serum and gastric tissue samples increased significantly. Conclusion S. boulardii could inhibit the colonization of H. suis in stomach and suppress the formation of gastric MALT during H. suis infection.

ABSTRACT

The effects of diclazuril on the bursa of Fabricius (BF) structure and secretory IgA (SIgA) expression in chickens infected with Eimeria tenella were examined. The morphology of the BF was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, while ultrastructural changes were monitored by transmission electron microscopy. E. tenella infection caused the BF cell volumes to decrease, irregularly arranged, as well as, enlargement of the intercellular space. Diclazuril treatment alleviated the physical signs of damages associated with E. tenella infection. The SIgA expression in BF was analyzed by immunohistochemistry technique. The SIgA expression increased significantly by 350.4% (P<0.01) after E. tenella infection compared to the normal control group. With the treatment of diclazuril, the SIgA was relatively fewer in the cortex, and the expression level was significantly decreased by 46.7% (P<0.01) compared with the infected and untreated group. In conclusion, E. tenella infection in chickens induced obvious harmful changes in BF morphological structure and stimulated the expression of SIgA in the BF. Diclazuril treatment effectively alleviated the morphological changes. This result demonstrates a method to develop an immunological strategy in coccidiosis control.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To discuss the effect of bifid triple viable capsules on plasma D-lactic acid and stool S-IgA in the patients with colorectal cancer after the operation. Methods:Totally 68 cases of patients with colorectal cancer after the operation were selected and divided into the observation group and the control group at random. The patients in the two groups were given enteral nutrition and postoperative routine medical treatment with the treatment course of one week from the third day after the operation. The patients in the observation group were additionally given 620 mg bifid triple viable capsules, twice a day. The occurrence rates of diarrhea and flora imbalance, D-lactic acid in plasma, S-IgA in stool and adverse drug reaction ( ADR) in the two groups were observed and compared after the medical treatment. Results:After the one-week medical treatment, the occurrence rates of diarrhea and flora imbalance in the observation group were much lower than those in the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, D-lactic acid in plasma in the two groups was declined, while S-IgA in stool was decreased than that before the treatment, and the changes in the observation group were more notable than those in the control group (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). No obvious ADR appeared in the two groups during the medical treatment. Conclusion:The application of bifid triple viable capsules in the patients with colorectal cancer after the operation can re-duce D-lactic acid in plasma and ralse S-IgA in stool, which can effectively recover intestinal mucosal barrier function and local immu-nity, and reduce alteration of intestinal flora and occurrence of diarrhea with high security.

ABSTRACT

Objective] To explore the relationship between excessive internal heat in TCM and intestinal microflora ,provide scientific evidences for pathogenesis of excessive internal heat.[Method]With the research methods of clinical observation and literature review,analyze the characteristics of excessive internal heat,and collect research progress about intestinal microflora to find out the link.[Result] Head and facial tissue is more susceptible to injury,which is determined by the organizational characteristics. People suffering from excessive internal heat widely have problems of energy metabolism and mucosal immune disorders. Intestinal microflora plays an important role in energy production,conversion,storage and use.They can change the way that organizations use energy,and change AMPK phosphorylation to influence the energy metabolism of the body.Thus gut microflora imbalance may lead to disorders of energy metabolism.On the other hand,inflammatory mediators express abnormally in these people. Impaired immune function leads to inflammatory states,which causes imbalance of gut microflora.While intestinal microflora also can regulate intestinal mucosal immune response by adjusting related effective factors. [Conclusion]Excessive internal heat is closely related with intestinal microflora from the aspects of energy metabolism and mucosal immunity,which may provide new ideas to explore the pathogenesis of this disease.The researches based on intestinal microflora and diseases bring brilliant prospects of individual prevention and treatment for TCM and western medicine .

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the effects of proteinase-activated receptor-2( PAR-2 )agonists on intestinal SIgA levels in rats with severe acute necrotizing pancreatitis( SAP). Methods This study established SAP rat model and observed the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in intestinal mucosa,SIgA content in intestinal mucus and histopathological changes of intestinal mucosa 6,12,and 24 h after establishment of model. The univariate analysis was used to compare the difference among groups. Linear correlation analysis was used to compare correlation between inflammatory mediators( TNF-α,IL-6 )and SIgA content in intestinal mucus,as well as the histopathological scores of intestinal mucosa. Results The level of TNF-α and IL-6 in intestinal mucosa and histopathological scores of intestinal mucosa were all significantly increased but SIgA content was decreased in model group at each time point after establishment of model,as compared with the sham-operated group(P﹤0. 05). The level of TNF-α and IL-6 in intestinal mucosa and histopathological scores of intestinal mucosa were all significantly decreased while SIgA content in intestinal mucus increased in pretreatment group at each time point after establishment of model,as compared with the model group(P﹤0. 05). There was a positive relationship between inflammatory mediators(TNF-α,IL-6)in intestinal mucosa and histopathological scores of intestinal mucosa(P﹤0. 01). There was a negative relationship between inflammatory mediators(TNF-α,IL-6)and SIgA content in intestinal mucus(P﹤0. 05). Conclusion Intestinal mucosa immune barrier was impaired in the early stage of SAP in rats. PAR-2 agonist has therapeutic effects on intestinal mucosa immune barrier,which is related to the inhibition of excessive release of inflammatory mediators( TNF-α and IL-6)in rats with SAP.

ABSTRACT

Theory of Shen-Xu Pang-Guang-Re (SXPGR) is an important part of the theory of zang-fu in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). And it is the generalization for etiology and pathogenesis of Lin-Zheng (LZ). In immunology, mucosal immune system is composed of mucosal-associated lymphoid tissues and immune cells, which can resist the invasion of microorganisms. Mucosal immune plays an important role in the occurrence of urinary tract infection. This paper, which was based on SIgA and homing mechanism, was to investigate the relevance between mucosal immunity and the theory of SXPGR, in order to study the connotation of SXPGR in TCM.

ABSTRACT

El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el perfil de la respuesta inmune según sintomatología intestinal en niños con giardiasis. Se realizó un estudio transversal clínico, inmunológico y parasitológico en 182 escolares (6-7 años) de la región de Barlovento, Estado Miranda. La evaluación clínica fue realizada haciendo énfasis en los síntomas intestinales y evaluación antropométrica. Se realizaron exámenes de heces seriadas. Los niveles de IgA secretora (total y específicos a G. duodenalis) así como los niveles de citocinas fueron determinados mediante ELISA. Los niveles de óxido nítrico usando el método colorimétrico de Griess. Análisis estadístico mediante Med calc Software, Versión 12.4.0. Encontramos que Los niveles plasmáticos de TNF-α y de óxido nítrico (en saliva) fueron más elevados en los niños con síntomas intestinales y giardiasis (P<0.001) mientras que los niveles de TGF-β, IL-10 y los niveles de IgA secretora total y especifica a G. duodenalis fueron más elevados (P<0.0001) en el grupo de asintomáticos. Los niveles de IL-6 fueron más elevados en los niños con giardiasis independientemente de la sintomatología. La co-infeccion con A. lumbricoides se asoció negativamente a la presencia de síntomas intestinales. Los indicadores antropométricos (Talla/edad, peso/Edad y Peso/ Talla) se asociaron positivamente a la presencia de citocinas reguladoras (P<0.005) y niveles de IgA secretora (P<0.0001). Así, Diferencias en el perfil de la respuesta inmune podrían asociarse a síntomas intestinales inducidos por giardiasis. Deficiencias en el estado nutricional se asocian a procesos inflamatorios y a la generación de síntomas mientras que la co-infección con helmintos intestinales favorece la reducción de la sintomatología.


We evaluated the immune profile associated to intestinal symptoms in children with giardiasis. A crosssectional study including clinical, immunological and parasitological aspects in 182 children (6-7 years) from the area of Barlovento, Miranda state, Venezuela was carried out. Clinical evaluation was performed with emphasis on intestinal symptoms and anthropometric parameters were also determined. Serial stool examinations were carried out. Secretory IgA levels (total and specific against G. duodenalis) and cytokine levels were determined by ELISA. Nitric oxide levels were determined using the Griess colorimetric method. Statistical analysis was performed by Med Calc Software, Version 12.4.0. We found that plasma levels of TNF-α and nitric oxide (salivary) were higher in children with intestinal symptoms and giardiasis (P<0.001) while the levels of TGF-β, IL-10 and IgA levels (total and anti-G. duodenalis) were higher (P<0.0001) in the asymptomatic group. The levels of IL-6 were higher in children with giardiasis regardless of symptoms. Coinfection with A. lumbricoides was associated negatively with the presence of intestinal symptoms. Anthropometric indicators (height / age, weight / age and weight / height) were positively associated with the presence of regulatory cytokines (P<0.005) and secretory IgA levels (P<0.0001). Therefore, differences in the immune profile may be associated with intestinal symptoms induced by giardiasis. Co-infection with intestinal helminths helps to reduce symptoms while nutritional deficiencies are associated with inflammatory processes and the generation of symptoms.
