Abstract
Emerging and re-emerging diseases in fish cause drastic economic losses in the aquaculture sector. To combat the impact of disease outbreaks and prevent the emergence of infections in culture systems, understanding the advanced strategies for protecting fish against infections is inevitable in fish health research. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the induction of trained immunity and its protective efficacy against Streptococcus agalactiae in tilapia. For this, Nile tilapia and the Tilapia head kidney macrophage primary culture were primed using β-glucan @200 μg/10 g body weight and 10 μg/mL respectively. Expression profiles of the markers of trained immunity and production of metabolites were monitored at different time points, post-priming and training, which depicted enhanced responsiveness. Higher lactate and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) production in vitro suggests heightened glycolysis induced by priming of the cells using β-glucan. A survival rate of 60% was observed in β-glucan trained fish post challenge with virulent S. agalactiae at an LD50 of 2.6 × 107 cfu/ml, providing valuable insights into promising strategies of trained immunity for combating infections in fish.

Abstract
The growing antibiotic resistance and low-efficient vaccines make searching for alternatives a need to fight infectious diseases in newborn calves. Thus, trained immunity could be used as a tool to optimize immune response against a wide range of pathogens. Although β-glucans have shown to induce trained immunity, it has not been demonstrated in bovines yet. Uncontrolled trained immunity activation can generate chronic inflammation in mice and humans, and inhibiting it might reduce excessive immune activation. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that in vitro β-glucan training induces metabolic changes in calf monocytes, characterized by an increase in lactate production and glucose consumption upon restimulation with lipopolysaccharide. These metabolic shifts can be abolished by co-incubation with MCC950, a trained immunity inhibitor. Moreover, the dose-response relationship of β-glucan on the viability of calf monocytes was demonstrated. In newborn calves, in vivo β-glucan oral administration also induced a trained phenotype in innate immune cells, leading to immunometabolic changes, upon ex vivo challenge with E.coli. β-glucan-induced trained immunity improved phagocytosis, nitric oxide production, myeloperoxidase activity, and TNF-α gene expression through up-regulation genes of the TLR2/NF-κB pathway. Furthermore, β-glucan oral doses enhanced consumption and production of glycolysis metabolites (glucose and lactate, respectively), as well as up-regulated expression of mTOR and HIF1-α mRNA. Therefore, the results suggest that β-glucan immune training may confer calf protection from a secondary bacterial challenge, and trained phenotype induced by β-glucan can be inhibited.

Development of innate immune memory by non-immune cells during Staphylococcus aureus infection depends on reactive oxygen species. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1138539. [PMID: 37325649 PMCID: PMC10264681 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1138539] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction The mechanisms underlying innate immune memory (trained immunity) comprise epigenetic reprogramming of transcriptional pathways associated with alterations of intracellular metabolism. While the mechanisms of innate immune memory carried out by immune cells are well characterized, such processes in non-immune cells, are poorly understood. The opportunistic pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus, is responsible for a multitude of human diseases, including pneumonia, endocarditis and osteomyelitis, as well as animal infections, including chronic cattle mastitis that are extremely difficult to treat. An induction of innate immune memory may be considered as a therapeutic alternative to fight S. aureus infection. Methods In the current work, we demonstrated the development of innate immune memory in non-immune cells during S. aureus infection employing a combination of techniques including Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), microscopic analysis, and cytometry. Results We observed that training of human osteoblast-like MG-63 cells and lung epithelial A549 cells with β-glucan increased IL-6 and IL-8 production upon a stimulation with S. aureus, concomitant with histones modifications. IL-6 and IL-8 production was positively correlated with an acetylation of histone 3 at lysine 27 (H3K27), thus suggesting epigenetic reprogramming in these cells. An addition of the ROS scavenger N-Acetylcysteine, NAC, prior to β-glucan pretreatment followed by an exposure to S. aureus, resulted in decreased IL-6 and IL-8 production, thereby supporting the involvement of ROS in the induction of innate immune memory. Exposure of cells to Lactococcus lactis resulted in increased IL-6 and IL-8 production by MG-63 and A549 cells upon a stimulation with S. aureus that was correlated with H3K27 acetylation, suggesting the ability of this beneficial bacterium to induce innate immune memory. Discussion This work improves our understanding of innate immune memory in non-immune cells in the context of S. aureus infection. In addition to known inducers, probiotics may represent good candidates for the induction of innate immune memory. Our findings may help the development of alternative therapeutic approaches for the prevention of S. aureus infection.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides produced by edible microorganisms exhibit excellent constructive physicochemical and significant biological activity, which provide advantages for the food or pharmaceutical industries. Two novel exopolysaccharides produced by Debaryomyces hansenii DH-1 were characterized, named S1 and S2, respectively. S1, with a molecular weight of 34.594 kDa, primarily consisted of mannose and glucose in a molar ratio of 12.19:1.00, which contained a backbone fragment of α-D-Manp-(1→4)-α-D-Manp-(1→2)-α-D-Glcp-(1→3)-α-D-Manp-(1→3)-β-D-Glcp-(1→4)-β-D-Manp-(1→. S2, with a molecular weight of 24.657 kDa, was mainly composed of mannose and galactose in a molar ratio of 4.00:1.00, which had a backbone fragment of α-D-Manp-(1→6)-β-D-Manp-(1→2)-α-D-Manp-(1→4)-α-D-Galp-(1→3)-β-D-Manp-(1→6)-α-D-Manp-(1→. Both S1 and S2 exhibited good thermal stability and potent hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, with ~98%. Moreover, S1 possessed an additional strong iron-reducing capacity. In vitro antitumor assays showed that S1 and S2 significantly inhibited the proliferation of Hela, HepG2, and PC-9 cancer cells. Moreover, PC-9 was more sensitive to S1 compared with S2. The above results indicate that S1 and S2 have great potential to be utilized as natural antioxidants and candidates for cancer treatment in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Trained immunity is a biological concept that has been demonstrated in different animal species, including human beings. Evidences indicate that innate immune cells can be trained and have a "memory". Under this concept, studies have shown that a first stimulus can potentiate immune responses upon a second one or protect upon homologous or heterologous pathogenic challenges. Research progress on trained innate immunity in mouse models and human beings has provided key information of this phenomenon. In domestic animals, this concept offers a heterologous protection against diseases. Recent studies in domestic animals have demonstrated that trained immunity is induced even by mucosal routes rather than only parenteral routes, as previously evidenced in mice and humans. This situation has led to a major breakthrough in the biotechnology field. Remarkably, the recent first proof-of-concept in calves and goats provides a reality beyond trained immunity as an affordable immunobiotechnological approach to control diseases. Currently, several responses to questions that have been deciphered in mouse and humans seem different in domestic animals; even these differences have been observed among animal species and breeds, which open new questions and challenges. The information of mechanistic studies in domestic animals based on the trained immunity paradigm has not been integrated before; therefore, it needs to be discussed and accurately presented. Moreover, prospects should be defined and biotechnological perspectives provided to promote research and development (R&D) to become a near reality in domestic animal, so this is the main objective of the review.

Abstract
AIMS Trained immunity confers non-specific protection against various types of infectious diseases, including bone and joint infection. Platelets are active participants in the immune response to pathogens and foreign substances, but their role in trained immunity remains elusive. METHODS We first trained the innate immune system of C57BL/6 mice via intravenous injection of two toll-like receptor agonists (zymosan and lipopolysaccharide). Two, four, and eight weeks later, we isolated platelets from immunity-trained and control mice, and then assessed whether immunity training altered platelet releasate. To better understand the role of immunity-trained platelets in bone and joint infection development, we transfused platelets from immunity-trained mice into naïve mice, and then challenged the recipient mice with Staphylococcus aureus or Escherichia coli. RESULTS After immunity training, the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-17A) and chemokines (CCL5, CXCL4, CXCL5, CXCL7, CXCL12) increased significantly in platelet releasate, while the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4, IL-13) decreased. Other platelet-secreted factors (e.g. platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-AA, PDGF-AB, PDGF-BB, cathepsin D, serotonin, and histamine) were statistically indistinguishable between the two groups. Transfusion of platelets from trained mice into naïve mice reduced infection risk and bacterial burden after local or systemic challenge with either S. aureus or E. coli. CONCLUSION Immunity training altered platelet releasate by increasing the levels of inflammatory cytokines/chemokines and decreasing the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines. Transfusion of platelets from immunity-trained mice conferred protection against bone and joint infection, suggesting that alteration of platelet releasate might be an important mechanism underlying trained immunity and may have clinical implications.

Trained Immunity as an Adaptive Branch of Innate Immunity. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms221910684.

Abstract
The concept of trained immunity has become one of the most interesting and potentially commercially and clinically relevant ideas of current immunology. Trained immunity is realized by the epigenetic reprogramming of non-immunocompetent cells, primarily monocytes/macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells, and is less specific than adaptive immunity; therefore, it may cross-protect against other infectious agents. It remains possible, however, that some of the observed changes are simply caused by increased levels of immune reactions resulting from supplementation with immunomodulators, such as glucan. In addition, the question of whether we can talk about trained immunity in cells with a life span of only few days is still unresolved.

Abstract
Yeast-derived products containing β-glucans have long been used as feed supplements in domesticated animals in an attempt to increase immunity. β-glucans are mainly recognized by the cell surface receptor CLEC7A, also designated Dectin-1. Although the immune mechanisms elicited through Dectin-1 activation have been studied in detail in mice and humans, they are poorly understood in other species. Here, we evaluated the response of bovine monocytes to soluble and particulate purified β-glucans, and also to Zymosan. Our results show that particulate, but not soluble β-glucans, can upregulate the surface expression of costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 on bovine monocytes. In addition, stimulated cells increased production of IL-8 and of TNF, IL1B, and IL6 mRNA expression, in a dose-dependent manner, which correlated positively with CLEC7A gene expression. Production of IL-8 and TNF expression decreased significantly after CLEC7A knockdown using two different pairs of siRNAs. Overall, we demonstrated here that bovine monocytes respond to particulate β-glucans, through Dectin-1, by increasing the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Our data support further studies in cattle on the induction of trained immunity using dietary β-glucans.

Abstract
By definition no model is perfect, and this also holds for biology and health sciences. In medicine, murine models are, and will be indispensable for long, thanks to their reasonable cost and huge choice of transgenic strains and molecular tools. On the other side, non-human primates remain the best animal models although their use is limited because of financial and obvious ethical reasons. In the field of respiratory diseases, specific clinical models such as sheep and cotton rat for bronchiolitis, or ferret and Syrian hamster for influenza and Covid-19, have been successfully developed, however, in these species, the toolbox for biological analysis remains scarce. In this view the porcine medical model is appearing as the third, intermediate, choice, between murine and primate. Herein we would like to present the pros and cons of pig as a model for acquired respiratory conditions, through an immunological point of view. Indeed, important progresses have been made in pig immunology during the last decade that allowed the precise description of immune molecules and cell phenotypes and functions. These progresses might allow the use of pig as clinical model of human respiratory diseases but also as a species of interest to perform basic research explorations.

Does Training Innate Immunity Confer Broad-spectrum Protection Against Bone and Joint Infection in a Mouse Model? Clin Orthop Relat Res 2020; 478:2670-2681.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The innate immune system can recall previous immunologic challenges and thus respond more effectively to subsequent unrelated challenges, a phenomenon called trained immunity. Training the innate immune system before surgery might be a potential option to prevent bone and joint infection. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Does the training process cause adverse effects such as fever or organ injury? (2) Does training the innate immune system confer broad-spectrum protection against bone and joint infection in a mouse model? (3) Does trained immunity remain effective for up to 8 weeks in this mouse model? METHODS After randomization and group information blinding, we trained the innate immune system of C57BL/6 mice (n = 20 for each group) by intravenously injecting them with either 0.1 mg of zymosan (a toll-like receptor 2 agonist), 0.1 mg of lipopolysaccharide (a toll-like receptor 4 agonist), or normal saline (control). For assessing the host response and possible organ injury after training and infection challenge, we monitored rectal temperature, collected blood to determine leukocyte counts, and performed biochemical and proinflammatory cytokine analyses. After 2 weeks, we then assessed whether trained immunity could prevent infections in an intraarticular implant model subjected to a local or systemic challenge with a broad spectrum of bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus pyogenes, or Pseudomonas aeruginosa) in terms of culture-positive rate and colony counts. The proportion of culture-positive joint samples from trained and control groups were compared after 4 weeks. Finally, we increased the interval between training and bacterial challenge up to 8 weeks to assess the durability of training efficacies. RESULTS Training with zymosan and lipopolysaccharide caused mild and transient stress in host animals in terms of elevated rectal temperature and higher blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase levels. Trained mice had fewer culture-positive joint samples after local inoculation with S. aureus (control: 100% [20 of 20]; zymosan: 55% [11 of 20], relative risk 0.55 [95% CI 0.37 to 0.82]; p = 0.001; lipopolysaccharide: 60% [12 of 20], RR 0.60 [95% CI 0.42 to 0.86]; p = 0.003) and systemic challenge with S. aureus (control: 70% [14 of 20]; zymosan: 15% [3 of 20], RR 0.21 [95% CI 0.07 to 0.63]; p = 0.001; lipopolysaccharide: 15% [3 of 20], RR 0.21 [95% CI 0.07 to 0.63]; p = 0.001) than controls. We observed similar patterns of enhanced protection against local and systemic challenge of E. coli, E. faecalis, S. pyogenes, and P. aeruginosa. Zymosan-trained mice were more effectively protected against both local (control: 20 of 20 [100%], zymosan: 14 of 20 [70%], RR 0.70 [95% CI 0.53 to 0.93]; p = 0.02) and systemic (control: 70% [14 of 20]; zymosan: 30% [6 of 20], RR 0.43 [95% CI 0.21 to 0.89]; p = 0.03) challenge with S. aureus for up to 8 weeks than controls. CONCLUSIONS Trained immunity confers mild stress and broad-spectrum protection against bone and joint infection in a mouse model. The protection conferred by immunity training lasted up to 8 weeks in this mouse model. The results of the current research support further study of this presurgical strategy to mitigate bone and joint infection in other large animal models. CLINICAL RELEVANCE If large animal models substantiate the efficacy and safety of presurgical immunity training-based strategies, clinical trials would be then warranted to translate this strategy into clinical practice.

Abstract
Several observations in the world of comparative immunology in plants, insects, fish and eventually mammals lead to the discovery of trained immunity in the early 2010's. The first demonstrations provided evidence that innate immune cells were capable of developing memory after a first encounter with some pathogens. Trained immunity in mammals was initially described in monocytes with the Bacille Calmette-Guerin vaccine (BCG) or prototypical agonists like β-glucans. This phenomenon relies on epigenetic and metabolic modifications leading to an enhanced secretion of inflammatory cytokines when the host encounters homologous or heterologous pathogens. The objective of our research was to investigate the trained immunity, well-described in mouse and human, in other species of veterinary importance. For this purpose, we adapted an in vitro model of trained innate immunity in dogs. Blood enriched monocytes were stimulated with β-glucans and we confirmed that it induced an increased production of pro-inflammatory and anti-microbial compounds in response to bacterial stimuli. These results constitute the first demonstration of trained immunity in dogs and confirm its signatures in other mammalian species, with an implication of cellular mechanisms similar to those described in mice and humans regarding cellular epigenetics and metabolic regulations.

Abstract
The mechanisms of trained immunity have been extensively described in vitro and the beneficial effects are starting to be deciphered in in vivo settings. Prototypical compounds inducing trained immunity, such as β-glucans, act through epigenetic reprogramming and metabolic changes of innate immune cells. The recent advances in this field have opened new areas for the development of Trained immunity-based adjuvants (TIbAs). In this study, we assessed in dogs the potential immune training effects of β-glucans as well as their capacity to enhance the adaptive immune response of an inactivated rabies vaccine (Rabisin®). Injection of β-glucan from Euglena gracilis was performed 1 month before vaccination with Rabisin® supplemented or not with the same β-glucan used as adjuvant. Trained innate immunity parameters were assessed during the first month of the trial. The second phase of the study was focused on the ability of β-glucan to enhance adaptive immune responses measured by multiple immunological parameters. B and T-cell specific responses were monitored to evaluate the immunogenicity of the rabies vaccine adjuvanted with β-glucan or not. Our preliminary results support that adjuvantation of Rabisin® vaccine with β-glucan elicit a higher B-lymphocyte immune response, the prevailing factor of protection against rabies. β-glucan also tend to stimulate the T cell response as shown by the cytokine secretion profile of PBMCs re-stimulated ex vivo. Our data are providing new insights on the impact of trained immunity on the adaptive immune response to vaccines in dogs. The administration of β-glucan, 1 month before or simultaneously to Rabisin® vaccination give promising results for the generation of new TIbA candidates and their potential to provide increased immunogenicity of specific vaccines.

[PMID: 32832342 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-020-02383-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2020] [Accepted: 08/06/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim was to investigate the combined effect of Debaryomyces hansenii and Qiweibaizhu powder (QWBZP) on the bacterial diversity of the intestinal mucosa of antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) mice, for the potential treatment of diarrhea, especially which is induced by administration of antibiotics. Eighteen (18) mice were randomly assigned to three equal groups of six mice, namely Normal (mn group), Placebo control (mm group) and D. hansenii and QWBZP (DQ) treatment (mdq group). Mice were gavaged with a solution (23.33 mL·kg-1·day-1) consisting of gentamicin and cefradine to establish AAD. The DQ treatment group was gavaged with DQ for 4 days, and sterile water was used as a placebo control. The metagenome DNA of the intestinal mucosal microbiota was extracted, and the 16S rRNA gene was sequenced. Analysis showed that there were 288 OTUs for the normal group, 443 for the placebo control group, and 229 for the DQ treatment group. Phylogenetically, the gut microbiota of the DQ treatment group and the normal group were closer to each other than to the placebo control group. Both the DQ and placebo-treated groups included Stenotrophomonas, Robinsoniella, Bacteroidales S24-7 group norank, Citrobacter, and Glutamicibacter, but their abundances were significantly higher in the DQ treatment group than in the placebo control group. This suggested that the combined use of D. hansenii and QWBZP overcame the influence of dysbacteriosis and could lead to the recovery of intestinal mucosal microbiota homeostasis. This positive effect is likely related to short-chain fatty acid (SCFA)-producing bacteria, such as members of Micrococcaceae, Lachnospiraceae, and Bacteroidales S24-7 group, which could play beneficial roles in protecting the mucosal barrier and stimulating the immune response in mice.

Abstract
Debaryomyces hansenii comes of age as a new potential probiotic for terrestrial and aquatic animals. Probiotic properties, including inmunostimulatory effects, gut microbiota modulation, enhanced cell proliferation and differentiation, and digestive function improvements have been related to the oral delivery of D. hansenii. Its functional compounds, such as cell wall components and polyamines, have been identified and implicated in its immunomodulatory activity. In addition, in vitro studies using immune cells have shown standpoints on the possible recognition, regulation, and effector immune mechanisms stimulated by this yeast. This review describes historic, cutting-edge research findings, implications, and perspectives on the use of D. hansenii as a promising probiotic for animals. KEY POINTS: • Debaryomyces hansenii has probiotic effects in terrestrial and aquatic animals. • Nutritional effects could be associated to probiotic D. hansenii strains. • β-D-Glucan and polyamines from D. hansenii are associated to probiotic properties. • Adoption by the industry is expected in the next years.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant problem in health care, animal health, and food safety. To limit AMR, there is a need for alternatives to antibiotics to enhance disease resistance and support judicious antibiotic usage in animals and humans. Immunomodulation is a promising strategy to enhance disease resistance without antibiotics in food animals. One rapidly evolving field of immunomodulation is innate memory in which innate immune cells undergo epigenetic changes of chromatin remodeling and metabolic reprogramming upon a priming event that results in either enhanced or suppressed responsiveness to secondary stimuli (training or tolerance, respectively). Exposure to live agents such as bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) or microbe-derived products such as LPS or yeast cell wall ß-glucans can reprogram or "train" the innate immune system. Over the last decade, significant advancements increased our understanding of innate training in humans and rodent models, and strategies are being developed to specifically target or regulate innate memory. In veterinary species, the concept of enhancing the innate immune system is not new; however, there are few available studies which have purposefully investigated innate training as it has been defined in human literature. The development of targeted approaches to engage innate training in food animals, with the practical goal of enhancing the capacity to limit disease without the use of antibiotics, is an area which deserves attention. In this review, we provide an overview of innate immunomodulation and memory, and the mechanisms which regulate this long-term functional reprogramming in other animals (e.g., humans, rodents). We focus on studies describing innate training, or similar phenomenon (often referred to as heterologous or non-specific protection), in cattle, sheep, goats, swine, poultry, and fish species; and discuss the potential benefits and shortcomings of engaging innate training for enhancing disease resistance.
