Host-Pathogen Interactions of in Caprine and Bovine Precision-Cut Lung Slices (PCLS) Models. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Mycoplasma infections in ruminants, like cows and goats, cause significant economic damage due to diseases such as contagious bovine pleuropneumonia and various infections in goats including pneumonia and mastitis.
  • Researchers developed a precision cut lung slices (PCLS) model to investigate the interactions between these pathogens and their hosts, using advanced techniques like immunohistological analysis and electron microscopy.
  • Their findings indicated that while both subspecies of mycoplasma attached to lung cells, the infection dynamics were species-specific, with notable tissue destruction observed over time, validating PCLS as a useful tool for studying these infections in livestock.

Article Abstract

Respiratory infections caused by mycoplasma species in ruminants lead to considerable economic losses. Two important ruminant pathogens are subsp. (), the aetiological agent of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia and subsp. (), which causes pneumonia, mastitis, arthritis, keratitis, and septicemia in goats. We established precision cut lung slices (PCLS) infection model for and to study host-pathogen interactions. We monitored infection over time using immunohistological analysis and electron microscopy. Moreover, infection burden was monitored by plating and quantitative real-time PCR. Results were compared with lungs from experimentally infected goats and cattle. Lungs from healthy goats and cattle were also included as controls. PCLS remained viable for up to two weeks. Both subspecies adhered to ciliated cells. However, the titer of in caprine PCLS decreased over time, indicating species specificity of . showed higher tropism to sub-bronchiolar tissue in caprine PCLS, which increased in a time-dependent manner. Moreover, was abundantly observed on pulmonary endothelial cells, indicating partially, how it causes systemic disease. Tissue destruction upon prolonged infection of slices was comparable to the in vivo samples. Therefore, PCLS represents a novel ex vivo model to study host-pathogen interaction in livestock mycoplasma.
