Abstract
This study was to evaluate the efficacy of an integrated mycotoxin-mitigating agent in reducing the adverse effects of co-occurring dietary aflatoxin B1 deoxynivalenol and ochratoxin A on broiler breeder hens. 360 30-week-old Hubbard Efficiency Plus broiler breeder hens were allocated into four groups and received a basal diet (BD; Control), BD added 0.15 mg/kg aflatoxin B1+1.5 mg/kg deoxynivalenol+0.12 mg/kg ochratoxin A (Toxins), BD plus Toxins with 0.1% TOXO-XL (Toxins + XL1), and BD plus Toxins with 0.2% TOXO-XL (Toxins + XL2), respectively, for 8 weeks, and then received the same BD for another 4 weeks. Compared with control, mycotoxins decreased total egg weigh, egg laying rate, settable eggs rate, hatch of total eggs rate, egg quality, but increased feed/egg ratio and mortality rate, and impaired the liver and oviduct health during weeks 1-8 and(or) 9-12. It also increased PC and MDA concentrations, TUNEL-positive cells and IL-1β and IL-6 expression, and decreased T-AOC, GPX and CAT activities in liver and/or oviduct. Notably, most of these negative changes were mitigated by both dosages of TOXO-XL. Generally, 0.2% TOXO-XL displayed better mitigation effects than 0.1% TOXO-XL. Conclusively, these findings revealed that TOXO-XL could mitigate the combined mycotoxins-induced toxicity on the performance, liver and oviduct health, through the regulation of redox, immunity, and apoptosis in broiler breeder hens.

Antiviral Res 2022; 204:105366. [PMID: 35732226 DOI: 10.1016/j.antiviral.2022.105366] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2022] [Revised: 05/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a global health problem and current treatments are insufficient due to immune tolerance to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). RNA interference (RNAi) is a more promising approach for antiviral therapy. Here, 17 single artificial microRNAs (amiRNAs) targeting the highly conserved regions of HBV genome were screened to inhibit HBV replication. In addition, we compared three tandem amiRNAs, each containing 3 different amiRNAs, out of which amiRNA135 was selected to be studied in detail. In vitro data showed that amiRNA135 significantly inhibited the replication of different HBV genotypes (including resistant and mutant). In vivo study was carried out by adeno-associated virus 8-mediated gene delivery, we found that the anti-HBV effects of AAV8-amiRNA135 were time and dose-dependent. Serum HBsAg and HBeAg in high dose groups were significantly reduced at 7 days after a single intravenous vector injection, and maintained at low levels throughout a 15-month experiment. Immunohistochemical staining and HBV core particle DNA analysis confirmed that HBV replication in the liver was strongly inhibited by AAV8-amiRNA135. Taken together, our data suggest that AAV8-mediated trimeric amiRNA expression is a promising therapeutic approach for chronic HBV infection.

Abstract
Aim: Expression of EGFP was investigated to ascertain the strength and specificity of CMV, U6 and hepatitis B virus (HBV) core promoters in hepatic and non-hepatic cells. Materials and methods: pSilencer-2.1 plasmid vector is known for siRNA-based inhibition. To achieve target-specific correction of disease-causing genes, pSilencer-GFP was constructed. For liver specific expression of therapeutic genes, endogenous U6 promoter of pSilencer-2.1 was replaced with HBV core promoter and ubiquitously active CMV promoter. Results: Transfection results showed that GFP expression under the control of HBV core promoter was higher in hepatic Hep3B than non-hepatic HEK293T cells. Conclusion: HBV core promoter could lead to specific expression in hepatocytes, which might be used in gene therapy of liver diseases as well as for siRNA-based therapeutic strategies.
