Avian infectious bronchitis has caused huge economic losses in the poultry industry. Previous studies have reported that infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) infection can produce cytopathic effects (CPE) and apoptosis in some mammalian cells and primary cells. However, there is little research on IBV-induced immune cell apoptosis. In this study, chicken macrophage HD11 cells were established as a cellular model that is permissive to IBV infection. Then, IBV-induced apoptosis was observed through a cell viability assay, morphological changes, and flow cytometry. The activity of caspases, the inhibitory efficacy of caspase-inhibitors and the expression of apoptotic genes further suggested the activation of apoptosis through both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways in IBV-infected HD11 cells. Additionally, ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) pretreated HD11 cells blocked IBV from entering cells and inhibited IBV-induced apoptosis. UV-inactivated IBV also lost the ability of apoptosis induction. IBV replication was increased by blocking caspase activation. This study presents a chicken macrophage cell line that will enable further analysis of IBV infection and offers novel insights into the mechanisms of IBV-induced apoptosis in immune cells.

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is a bacterial pathogen that threatens poultry reproduction by inciting systemic inflammation and leading to chicken colibacillosis. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is an immunomodulator system that regulates inflammatory responses. In this study, we aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of paeoniflorin on APEC-infected HD11 cells and its underlying mechanism.

Ubiquitination of proteins is involved in numerous life activities. In poultry, several ubiquitin ligases tightly control the innate immune response, imbalance of which may result in autoimmune diseases and seriously impair poultry growth, development, and productivity. LNX1, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, catalyzes the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of specific substrate proteins.

The restrictions on excessive use of antimicrobials in the poultry industry have led to the search for alternative strategies including nutritional interventions to enhance gut health with the ultimate aim to prevent gut infections. Pectins as prebiotics have shown beneficial effects on gut health in humans and mice by improving the gut barrier function, altering the gut microbiota, and by modulating the gut immune response. However, little is known about immunomodulatory properties of pectins in chickens.

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the detrimental effects of the plasticizer DEHP on chicken liver health, linking it to oxidative stress and the polarization of macrophages, which can exacerbate liver damage over time.
- - Chronic exposure to DEHP leads to weight loss, liver damage, increased oxidative stress markers (like ROS and MDA), and changes in macrophage polarization, which is crucial in the inflammation process.
- - Findings suggest that excessive M1 polarization, which promotes necroptosis, is a key mechanism behind DEHP-induced liver injury; the study indicates that the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine can inhibit this effect.
