Bursal-Derived BP7 Induces the miRNA Molecular Basis of Chicken Macrophages and Promotes the Differentiation of B Cells.

The bursa of Fabricius (BF) is a vital central humoral immune organ unique to birds. The bioactive peptide BP7 derived from bursa is reported to promote the vaccine immune response and antibody production. However, the regulatory effect on antigen presentation and B cell differentiation has been infrequently reported.

The Function behind the Relation between Lipid Metabolism and Vimentin on H9N2 Subtype AIV Replication.

Avian influenza caused by H9N2 subtype avian influenza virus (AIV) poses a great threat to the healthy development of the poultry industry. Vimentin is closely related to intracellular lipid metabolism, which plays an important role during the viral infection process. However, the function of lipid metabolism and vimentin on H9N2 AIV replication is unclear.

The Immunomodulatory Functions of Various CpG Oligodeoxynucleotideson CEF Cells and HN Subtype Avian Influenza Virus Vaccination.

CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODN) present adjuvant activities for antigen proteins, which can induce humoral and cellular immune responses to antigens. However, the immunomodulatory functions of CpG ODNs with different sequences are very different. In this paper, six CpG ODNs with different sequences were designed based on CpG2007 as a template.
