SpiC protein, a member of Salmonella spp. type III secretion system (T3SS)-2, is necessary for the survival of Salmonella within macrophages, and it plays a vital role in Salmonella pathogenesis. To develop and test monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against SpiC protein, two recombinant proteins, rHis-SpiC and rGST-SpiC, were expressed in vitro in the prokaryotic expression vectors pET-30(a) and pGEX-6p-1, respectively, and rHis-SpiC protein used to immunize mice. Hybridomas were generated from the splenocytes of these mice and the monoclonal antibodies produced by these cells were assessed using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with rGST-SpiC as the coating antigen. An immunoblotting analysis indicated that all seven of the MAbs developed in this study could specifically recognize the SpiC protein. These MAbs will be very useful in the study of SpiC function and for use in the immunodiagnosis of Salmonella infection.

Multiarm-Assisted Design of Dendron-like Degradable Ionizable Lipids Facilitates Systemic mRNA Delivery to the Spleen.

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have emerged as pivotal vehicles for messenger RNA (mRNA) delivery to hepatocytes upon systemic administration and to antigen-presenting cells following intramuscular injection. However, achieving systemic mRNA delivery to non-hepatocytes remains challenging without the incorporation of targeting ligands such as antibodies, peptides, or small molecules. Inspired by comb-like polymeric architecture, here we utilized a multiarm-assisted design to construct a library of 270 dendron-like degradable ionizable lipids by altering the structures of amine heads and multiarmed tails for optimal mRNA delivery.

Globally, the significant risk to food safety and public health posed by antimicrobial-resistant foodborne Salmonella pathogens is driven by the utilization of in-feed antibiotics, with variations in usage across poultry production systems. The current study investigated the occurrence of virulence, antimicrobial resistant profiles, and biofilm-forming potentials of Salmonella isolates sourced from different chicken types. A total of 75 cloacal faecal samples were collected using sterile swabs from layer, broiler, and indigenous chickens across 15 poultry farms (five farms per chicken type).

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates how selgantolimod (SLGN), a toll-like receptor 8 agonist, affects immune cells in the liver to aid in curing chronic hepatitis B (CHB) through new therapy combinations.
- - Researchers characterized the changes in liver immune cell activity and gene expression induced by SLGN, finding that it changes Kupffer cell (KC) markers and affects HBV virus entry into liver cells.
- - The findings suggest that SLGN not only impacts existing HBV infections but also alters the immune environment in the liver, highlighting its potential as part of future treatment strategies for HBV.

In this study, a novel and simple strategy is proposed based on 3D network formed by easily blending polysaccharide carrageenan (Car) and fucoidan (Fuc) without a crosslinker. The Fuc/Car dual coating effectively assists the self-assembly of soy protein-isolated (SPI)/curcumin (Cur, C) composite microcapsules (SPI/C) and achieves an excellent curcumin encapsulation efficiency (EE) up to 95.28% with a 4.
