We developed a novel in vitro antibody (Ab) generation system using a hypermutating chicken B cell line (DT40-SW). We suppressed the expression of the Pax5 transcription factor by targeted disruption of the gene to increase Ab production in isolated clones and produce the desired Abs. This single genetic manipulation resulted in a significant enhancement of Ab production without significantly affecting maximum cell density.

Mineralizing cells release a special class of extracellular vesicles known as matrix vesicles (MV), crucial for bone mineralization. Following their release, MV anchor to the extracellular matrix (ECM), where their highly specialized enzymatic machinery facilitates the formation of seed mineral within the MV's lumen, subsequently releasing it onto the ECM. However, how MV propagate mineral onto the collagenous ECM remains unclear.

Heat-stress-induced oxidative and inflammatory responses were important factors contributing to chicken intestinal damage. The purpose of this study was based on the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of Physalis Calyx seu Fructus (Jin Deng Long, JDL) to investigate its efficacy and mechanism in relieving chicken heat stress damage. Primary chicken embryo duodenum cells and 90 30-day-old specific-pathogen-free chicken were randomly divided into control and JDL groups to establish heat stress models and .

The aim of this study was to detect chicken parvovirus (ChPV) and turkey parvovirus (TuPV) on Turkish poultry farms and examine the molecular epidemiology of these viruses. In 2023, a total of 1,060 fecal samples were collected from 76 broiler farms and 30 turkey farms across various regions of Turkiye. The overall positivity rate was 72.

Reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) is a gamma retrovirus that can cause immunosuppression, dwarf syndrome and acute reticulocytoma in poultry. The molecular mechanism by which REV infection leads to immunosuppression and tumorigenesis is poorly understood. In this study, we elucidated the regulatory network of miRNA-mRNA and the major signaling pathways involved in REV-SNV infection.

Interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7)-mediated type I interferon antiviral response is crucial for regulating the host following viral infection in chickens. Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is a double-stranded RNA virus that induces immune suppression and high mortality rates in chickens aged 3-6 weeks. Previous studies have shown that IBDV infection antagonizes the type I interferon production to facilitate viral replication in the cell, and IRF7 signaling might play an important role.
