Effect of Intermittent Hypobaric Hypoxia Exposure on HIF-1α, VEGF, and Angiogenesis in the Healing Process of Post-Tooth Extraction Sockets in Rats. Eur J Dent 2024; 18:304-313. [PMID: 37295455 PMCID: PMC10959591 DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1768639] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) exposure on the expression of hypoxia-induced factor-1α (HIF-1α) messenger RNA (mRNA), vascular endothelial growth factor-a (VEGF-a) mRNA, and angiogenesis after tooth extraction in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS On 45 male Sprague-Dawley rats were performed the removal of the maxillary left first molar, and then they were randomly divided into 9 groups, namely: 4 groups that were exposed to IHH for 30 minutes every day in the Hypobaric Chamber at an altitude of 18,000 feet, with 1 time hypobaric hypoxia (HH), 3 times HH, 5 times HH, and 7 times HH; 4 normoxia groups that were terminated on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 after tooth extraction; and the 1 control group. Real-time polymerase chain reaction measured the molecular changes in the socket tissue after tooth extraction in rats to evaluate the expression of HIF-1α mRNA and VEGF mRNA. Histological changes with hematoxylin and eosin staining were noted to evaluate the amount of angiogenesis in the socket after tooth extraction. Molecular and histological parameters were calculated at the end of each experiment on days 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 after tooth extraction, which exhibited the improvement phase of the wound-healing process. RESULTS Increases in the expression of HIF-1α mRNA, VEGF mRNA, and angiogenesis were found in the IHH group compared with the normoxia group and the control group. The expression of HIF-1α mRNA increased significantly (p < 0.05) in the group after one time HH exposure on day 1, then decreased in the IHH group (three times HH exposure, five times HH exposure, and seven times HH exposure) approaching the control group. The expression of VEGF mRNA and angiogenesis began to increase after one time HH exposure on day 1, and increased again after three times HH exposure on day 3, then increased even more after five times HH exposure on day 5, and increased very significantly (**p < 0.05) after seven times HH exposure on day 7. It showed that repeated or intermittent exposure to HH conditions induced a protective response that made cells adapt under hypoxia conditions. CONCLUSION IHH exposure accelerates the socket healing of post-tooth extraction, which is proven by changes in HIF-1α mRNA expression and increase in VEGF mRNA expression as stimuli for angiogenesis in post-tooth extraction sockets under hypobaric hypoxic condition, which also stimulates the formation of new blood vessels, thereby increasing blood supply and accelerating wound healing.

[PMID: 37251268 PMCID: PMC10219819 DOI: 10.5455/ovj.2023.v13.i4.5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Newcastle disease is very pathogenic in chickens, whereas in ducks, the disease does not show any clinical symptoms. Aims To compare the clinical symptoms features, pathological lesions, viral distribution, and apoptosis response caused by the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) in domestic chicken and Alabio duck. Methods Forty domestic chickens and 40 Alabio ducks were separated into four groups: domestic chicken and Alabio duck treatment groups, where each was infected by NDV velogenic ducks/Aceh Besar_IND/2013/eoAC080721 in 106ELD50 dosage. The domestic chicken and Alabio duck control groups were each inoculated with Phosphate Buffer Saline. The infection route was intraorbital, 0.1 ml in volume. Symptoms were observed from day 1 until day 7 post-infection (PI). Necropsy was performed on days 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 PI for organ collection. Results Symptoms observed were disorders in the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and nervous systems, followed by 100% mortality in domestic chickens. In Alabio ducks, there were only depression and slight lethargy. The lesion in domestic chicken day 1 appeared by the lungs, thymus, Fabricius bursa, spleen, and kidney. On day 3 PI, lesions were also found in the heart, proventriculus, duodenum, and cecal tonsil. On days 5 and 7 PI, the trachea and brain lesions were found. In Alabio ducks, lesions were found in the lungs, thymus, spleen, and proventriculus on day 1. Afterward, on day 3, light lesions were found in the heart. On day 5, lesions were found in the trachea and brain; finally, on day 7, light lesions were only found in the thymus, spleen, and brain. Immunopositive reaction NDV in domestic chicken was highest in the proventriculus, duodenum, cecal tonsil, and lymphoreticular organs. In the Alabio duck, it was highest in the duodenum and cecal tonsil. The caspase-3 percentage in domestic chicken increased on day 3 PI; in Alabio ducks, on day 2 PI. Conclusion Clinical symptoms and pathological lesions were faster and more severe in domestic chickens. The immunopositive reaction NDV in domestic chicken continued to increase, while in Alabio ducks, it decreased until the last observation day. Apoptosis percentage increased earlier in the Alabio duck than in domestic chicken.

Morphology, Biochemical, and Molecular Characterization of Pasteurella multocida Causing Hemorrhagic Septicemia in Indonesia. Vet Med Int 2023; 2023:7778707. [PMID: 36941952 PMCID: PMC10024624 DOI: 10.1155/2023/7778707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Revised: 03/03/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Pasteurella multocida is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes hemorrhagic septicemia (HS) in buffaloes and cattle. The disease causes serious problems in Indonesian livestock and is classified as a serious transmissible animal disease. Previous research has determined the diversity of P. multocida using a serotyping method based on the antigenic properties of capsule polysaccharides. An alternative method for analysis utilizes sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). This study aimed to characterize and determine P. multocida diversity in several regions of Indonesia based on phenotypic character, protein profile, and the band pattern of RAPD results. Bacterial identification was performed using traditional biochemical techniques and API® 20NE systems and then confirmed molecularly using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The freeze-thawing technique was performed to obtain the bacterial protein extract, and DNA extraction was executed using DNAzol. The extracted protein and RAPD product were then electrophoresed on 12% polyacrylamide gel and 1.5% agarose gel, respectively. The results indicate that the molecular weight range of the protein bands is 12-209 kDa, and the band pattern of the RAPD results ranged from 307-3,100 bp. Based on phenotypical analysis, P. multocida from South Sulawesi Province exhibited a variety of growth characteristics in MacConkey agar media. Using the hierarchical clustering analysis of the band patterns of RAPD and the whole-cell protein profiles, four and five clusters were formed, respectively. These results indicate molecular diversity among P. multocida from several regions of Indonesia.

Immunoglobulin yolk targeting spike 1, receptor binding domain of spike glycoprotein and nucleocapsid of SARS-CoV-2 blocking RBD-ACE2 binding interaction. Int Immunopharmacol 2022; 112:109280. [PMID: 36183680 PMCID: PMC9515349 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2022.109280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2022] [Revised: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Coronavirus disease (COVID)-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has become a global pandemic disease that has social and economic chaos. An alternative mitigation strategy may involve the use of specific immunoglobulin (Ig)-Y derived from chicken eggs. Our study aimed to evaluate the neutralizing potential of specific IgY targeting S1, receptor-binding-domain (RBD) of spike glycoprotein and nucleocapsid (N) of SARS-CoV-2 to inhibit RBD and angiotensin-converting-enzyme-2 (ACE2) binding interaction. Hy-Line Brown laying hens were immunized with recombinant S1, RBD spike glycoprotein, and nucleocapsid (N) of SARS-CoV-2. The presence of specific S1,RBD,N-IgY in serum and egg yolk was verified by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Specific S1,RBD,N-IgY was purified and characterized from egg yolk using sodium-dodecyl-sulfate-polyacrylamide-gel-electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and was subsequently evaluated for inhibition of the RBD-ACE2 binding interaction in vitro. Specific IgY was present in serum at 1 week post–initial immunization (p.i.i), whereas its present in egg yolk was confirmed at 4 weeks p.i.i. Specific S1,RBD,N-IgY in serum was able to inhibit RBD-ACE2 binding interaction between 4 and 15 weeks p.i.i. The results of the SDS-PAGE revealed the presence of bands with molecular weights of 180 kDa, indicating the presence of whole IgY. Our results demonstrated that S1,RBD,N-IgY was able to inhibit RBD-ACE2 binding interaction in vitro, suggesting its potential use in blocking virus entry. Our study also demonstrated proof-of-concept that laying hens were able to produce this specific IgY, which could block the viral binding and large production of this specific IgY is feasible.

Abstract
Nelson Bay orthoreovirus (NBV) is an emerging bat-borne virus and causes respiratory tract infections in humans sporadically. Over the last two decades, several strains genetically related to NBV were isolated from humans and various bat species, predominantly in Southeast Asia (SEA), suggesting a high prevalence of the NBV species in this region. In this study, an orthoreovirus (ORV) belonging to the NBV species was isolated from Indonesian fruit bats' feces, tentatively named Paguyaman orthoreovirus (PgORV). Serological studies revealed that 81.2% (108/133) of Indonesian fruit bats sera had neutralizing antibodies against PgORV. Whole-genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of PgORV suggested the occurrence of past reassortments with other NBV strains isolated in SEA, indicating the dispersal and circulation of NBV species among bats in this region. Intranasal PgORV inoculation of laboratory mice caused severe pneumonia. Our study characterized PgORV's unique genetic background and highlighted the potential risk of PgORV-related diseases in Indonesia.

Effects of ethanol extract of curry leaves ( Murraya koenigii) on HER2 and caspase-3 expression in rat model mammary carcinoma. Vet World 2021; 14:1988-1994. [PMID: 34566312 PMCID: PMC8448650 DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2021.1988-1994] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2020] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/erbB2/neu) is a prognostic factor and biomarker for detecting mammary tumor malignancy. Leaves of curry (Murraya koenigii) contain alkaloid, flavonoid, and phenolic compounds that can be cytotoxic to tumor cells. Caspase-3 is an indicator of apoptosis in tumor cells. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of curry leaf extract on the expression of HER2 and caspase-3 in mammary tumor through immunohistochemical analyses. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty five Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into seven groups: negative control of tumor (P1), positive control of tumor (P2), tumor therapy with methotrexate (P3), and curry leaf extract doses of 300 and 400 mg/kg body weight/BW after tumor formation (P4, P5), and before tumor formation (P6, P7). Thirty rats of six groups were injected subcutaneously into the mammary glands with 7,12-dimethylbenz(α)-anthracene DMBA) twice within 2 weeks for mammary tumor formation. At the end of the treatments, the rats were euthanized, and their mammary glands were analyzed histopathologically and immunohistochemically using HER2 and caspase-3 antibodies. RESULTS Regarding the expression of HER2 detected in the epithelial cell membrane of the mammary gland, P2, P3, P4, and P5 revealed positive expression, P6 and P7 showed equivocal expression, while P1 showed negative expression. Regarding caspase-3 expression in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells, it was low in P1, moderate in P2, P5, P6, and P7, and high in P3 and P4. These findings suggest that DMBA injection produced mammary tumors with HER2 as a biomarker of mammary tumor, and high caspase-3 expression in P4 was the effect of curry leaves extract. CONCLUSION The extract of curry leaves at a dose of 300 mg/kg BW with preventive and curative effects can potentially be used as an anti-tumor agent, which effectively induces the apoptosis of tumor cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Klebsiella pneumoniae is an emerging zoonotic and foodborne pathogen worldwide. Hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKp) was reported as the causative agent of bovine mastitis. This is the first study in Indonesia that has been conducted to determine the capsular serotype of K. pneumoniae, pulmonary gross pathology and histopathology, and distribution of hvKp in the lungs of Aceh cattle. MATERIALS AND METHODS The presence of K. pneumoniae in Aceh cattle was investigated in two slaughterhouses in Banda Aceh and Aceh Besar, Indonesia. Lung tissues with gross pathological lesions were collected from 15 cattle presenting with depression, dehydration, or cachexia. The confirmation and capsular serotyping of K. pneumoniae isolates were performed using polymerase chain reaction. The tissues were stained with hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemistry to observe the histopathological lesions and the distribution of the hvKp antigens. RESULTS The pneumonic lesions identified in the lungs of Aceh cattle included hyperemia, hemorrhage, consolidation, and atelectasis. K. pneumoniae was isolated in all 15 lung tissues with pathological pneumonic lesions. Two patterns of infection were observed histopathologically. Acute infection was characterized by hyperemia, inflammatory cell infiltration, hemorrhage, bronchiolar epithelium hyperplasia, bronchial and bronchiolar obstruction with purulent exudates, edema, and atelectasis. On the other hand, chronic infection was defined by macrophage infiltration, emphysema, bronchial dilatation, pleural fibrosis, and alveolar wall thickening by interstitial fibrosis. Immunohistochemical staining using monospecific antisera induced by the hvKp isolate confirmed the presence of K. pneumoniae-specific antigens in the acute infection, predominantly in the bronchiolar, vascular, and alveolar areas. In contrast, generally diffuse infiltrates were found in the pleura and interstitial alveolar areas in chronic infection. CONCLUSION hvKp can be detected in the lungs of Aceh cattle, representing acute and chronic infections. The distribution of Klebsiella antigens in the lung tissue was consistent with the histopathological findings.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Schistosomiasis japonica, a disease caused by Schistosoma japonicum, is a public health problem in the Philippines, the Republic of Indonesia, and the People's Republic of China. The disease is known as zoonotic, meaning other than humans, animals are involved as the reservoirs. In Indonesia, schistosomiasis surveillance in animals is not continuous. Thus, the study to determine the prevalence of the disease in animals is needed. The study was aimed to determine the seroprevalence of S. japonicum infection among four species of domestic animals in the Lindu Sub-district, Central Sulawesi Province of Indonesia.
Materials and Methods: Blood samples of domestic animals were collected and analyzed for the presence of anti-S. japonicum immunoglobulin G antibodies against S. japonicum soluble egg antigens using the indirect hemagglutination assay. Animal stool samples were collected, and the miracidia-hatching assay was used for the detection of S. japonicum infection. Additional data concerning the animal identity and the management practices were obtained through a questionnaire used in surveys and interviews.
Results: A total of 146 sera from 13 cattle, 24 buffaloes, 54 pigs, and 55 dogs were collected. The overall schistosomiasis seroprevalence was 64.4%. The serology prevalence in cattle, buffalo, pig, and dog was 100.0%, 41.7%, 74.1%, and 56.4%, respectively. Domestic animals in all of five villages have previous exposure with S. japonicum as seropositive animals detected in every village. A total of 104 animal stool samples from 146 animals sampled were obtained. The overall schistosomiasis prevalence determined by the miracidia hatching assay was 16.35%. The sensitivity and specificity of indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA) in the current study were 88.24% and 41.37%, respectively, with miracidia hatching assay as the gold-standard method.
Conclusion: This study has shown a high seroprevalence of schistosomiasis japonica among domestic animals in the Lindu Subdistrict. IHA can be used as the screening method for the detection of S. japonicum infection in domestic animals. Chemotherapy and animal livestock grazing management programs to reduce the parasite burden and Schistosoma egg contamination in the environment must be implemented as part of one health approaches, in addition to other control measures.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Avian coronavirus has a wide range of hosts, from chickens and turkeys to wild birds. This virus causes an economically and, possibly, environmentally, important loss in the poultry industry. Therefore, research into the avian coronavirus in various species of birds is required. The Eclectus parrot (Eclectus roratus) is an endemic bird to Indonesia and Northern Australia and often kept as pets. At present, there has been limited information about avian coronavirus infection among birds. This study aimed to determine the presence of and to characterize avian coronavirus isolated from Eclectus parrots in Indonesia. Materials and Methods: Cloacal swab samples were taken from 10 healthy Eclectus parrots (E. roratus). Each isolate was propagated into specific pathogen-free embryonated chicken eggs. The presence of avian coronavirus was determined using three sets of primers targeting the 3’ untranslated region (3’-UTR) of avian coronavirus (UTR41+/11−), the N gene of the infectious bronchitis virus (IBVN+/−), and the S1 gene of the IBV (XCE2+/XCE2−). The infectious bronchitis vaccine strain H120 was used as a positive control. Resulting positive bands were sequenced for the S1 gene. Results: None of the isolates was positive for the 3’-UTR, four isolates were positive for the N gene of infectious bronchitis, and two isolates were positive for the S1 gene of the IBV. However, only one isolate (parrot/Indonesia/BX9/16) was sequenced for the partial S1 gene with primers XCE2+/XCE2−. The partial nucleotide sequence of this isolate showed 100% homology with the IBV GI-13 lineage, specifically with a field isolate of the 4/91 variant 1 Israel and the 4/91 vaccine on the hypervariable region 3 site of the S1 gene. Conclusion: An IB-like avian coronavirus was isolated from healthy Eclectus parrots. Our results indicate that IBV has a wide range of hosts, which prompt the need to understand the interspecies connection of this virus better.

Abstract
Propolis is one of the bee products that widely used in health therapy. However, there has no study evaluating the developmental toxicity of propolis. This study was aimed to analyze the effect of propolis administration during pregnancy on fetal development. The pregnant mice were divided into five groups including control group (Tween 80 1%), low-dose (380 mg/kg b.wt.) and high-dose (1400 mg/kg b.wt.) of water extract of propolis from Banten (WEB), and low-dose (380 mg/kg b.wt.) and high-dose (1400 mg/kg b.wt.) of ethanol extract of propolis from South Sulawesi (EES). Propolis was administered for 18 days of gestation and then sacrificed to analyze the fetal development by examining external and skeletal abnormalities. The histopathological examination of placenta was also conducted. The result showed both low-dose groups did not inhibit fetal development. However, the high-dose of EES significantly reduced the weight, crown-rump of fetuses and increased the number of resorption (p < 0.05). Fetal weight was the only significantly reduced parameter of fetal growth in the highdose group of WEB (p < 0.05). The histopathological examination of placenta showed a reduction of labyrinth development in both high-dose groups. Dose of 380 mg/kg dose of Indonesian propolis is relatively safe for consumption during pregnancy.

Background and Aim: Schistosomiasis is endemic in Indonesia and is found in three remote areas in Central Sulawesi Province. Non-human mammals serve as reservoir hosts, meaning the disease is zoonotic. The previous schistosomiasis studies in animals from the Lindu Subdistrict did not determine which domestic animal species can serve as the primary source of transmission. No animals have been treated in Indonesia to control the disease; therefore, the parasite’s life cycle is not blocked entirely. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and identify the risk factors associated with, Schistosoma japonicum infection in animals, and identify animals’ relative contributions to S. japonicum transmission in the Lindu Subdistrict. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional survey of S. japonicum infected animals was conducted in five villages of the Lindu Subdistrict. Fecal samples were collected from 134 selected animals (13 cattle, 26 buffaloes, 28 horses, 59 pigs, and 8 dogs). S. japonicum infection and infection intensity were determined using the Danish Bilharziasis Laboratory method. Environmental contamination with schistosome eggs was measured. The data were analyzed using a Chi-square test. Results: The overall prevalence of schistosomiasis was 32.9%, with the prevalence of infection in each species of animal at 61.5% in cattle, 42.3% in buffaloes, 25.0% in horses, 35.6% in pigs, and 12.5% in dogs. Free-range pigs were 8.667 times more likely to have S. japonicum infection than pigs kept in cages. Buffaloes, cattle, and horses were the primary sources of S. japonicum egg contamination, with relative transmission indices of 59.15%, 22.80%, and 10.61%, respectively. Conclusion: Bovines and horses are the main contributors to schistosomiasis transmission in the Lindu Subdistrict. In conjunction with other schistosomiasis control programs, the government should treat infected animals living within endemic areas where there are high infection rates of S. japonicum.

Abstract
Aterosklerosis pada arteri iliak berkaitan dengan kejadian peripheral arterial disease (PAD) pada manusia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis lesio aterosklerosis pada arteri iliak sebagai salah satu faktor penyebab PAD. Penelitian ini menggunakan sembilan monyet ekor panjang jantan dewasa dari 3 kelompok respons yang diberi pakan aterogenik IPB-1 selama 2 tahun. Arteri common iliak diambil pada saat nekropsi, diproses menjadi slaid histologi dan diwarnai dengan Verhoeff van Giesson (VVG). Keparahan lesio dikategorikan sebagai grade I sampai VI dan dianalisis secara deskriptif. Area lesio ditentukan melalui panjang lamina elastik interna (PLEI), area intima (AI), serta ketebalan maksimum intima (KIM) dan dianalisis dengan ANOVA. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan 55,56% monyet membentuk lesio plak aterosklerosis (grade IV sampai VI) yang mana mereka berasal dari kelompok intermediet dan hiper-responsif. Kelompok hiper-responsif menunjukkan AI dan KMI paling tinggi (0,979 mm2; 0,352 mm) diikuti kelompok intermediet (0,372 mm2; 0,237 mm) dan kelompok hipo-responsif (0,049 mm2; 0,052 mm) (P<0,05). Hasil ini menunjukkan semakin tinggi kolesterol plasma, semakin luas area lesio yang terbentuk. Keseluruhan hasil mendukung bahwa monyet yang diberi pakan aterogenik IPB-1 selama 2 tahun mampu membentuk lesio plak aterosklerosis pada arteri common iliak, dan berpotensi sebagai hewan model PAD, kecuali kelompok hipo-responsif.

Abstract
Background and Aim: This study was designed to determine the effects of a new atherogenic diet formulated at Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB) (Bogor, Indonesia) on metabolic, morphometric, and carotid artery imaging of cynomolgus monkeys. Materials and Methods: A total of 20 adult male cynomolgus monkeys fed IPB-1 atherogenic diet for 1 year. Total plasma cholesterol (TPC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, and morphometric measurements were evaluated at baseline and monthly during the study. Carotid plaques and intima-media thickness (IMT) were measured using ultrasonography at baseline and after 8 months of treatment. Results: This diet increased TPC, LDL, and TPC/HDL ratio and induced carotid atherosclerosis in this model. The TPC, LDL, and TPC/HDL ratio were positively associated; however, HDL was negatively associated with carotid plaques and IMT. Conclusion: The IPB-1 atherogenic diet formulated with locally and readily available ingredients provides an economically and scientifically feasible monkey model to study atherosclerosis in Indonesia and Southeast Asia.

Abstract
AIM This research was conducted to produce and characterize ND antibody as reagent candidate to develop a rapid immunodiagnostic test tool. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four New Zealand White rabbits were used in this study and divided into two groups. First group was injected by Sato ND antigen, and second group was injected by genotype VII ND antigen. This study is divided into three steps: (a) ND antibody production, (b) ND antibody purification, and (c) ND antibody characterization. First group was rabbit injected by Sato NDV (5×108.25 egg lethal doses (ELD)50/ml) and second group was injected by genotype VII NDV (5×106.5 ELD50/ml). Antigen induction was performed by subcutaneous administrated for first (day 1) and second (day 14) injection and intravenous administrated for third (day 30) injection. Blood was collected on day 8 after third injection. RESULTS Antibody production increased on second antigen injection and reached a peak on day 9 after second antigen injection. Sato and genotype VII ND antibody can be produced without adjuvant within 38 days with the highest titer 210. Based on antibody titer data, both antigens induced antibody production in a similar trend. The characterization antibody by SDS-PAGE indicated that molecular weight of immunoglobulin G (IgG) is 154.93 kDa (whole IgG), heavy chain 54.39 kDa, and light chain 27.74 kDa. ND antibodies have specificity to homologous and heterologous NDVs in varying virulence. CONCLUSION Sato and genotype VII ND antibodies have been successfully produced within 38 days without adjuvant. Specificity of ND antibodies to NDVs in varying virulence and cross-reaction between Sato ND antibody and genotype VII ND antibody indicates that the characterized ND antibodies can be used as a reagent to develop rapid immunodiagnostic test tools.

Abstract
Valproic acid (VPA) plays a role in histone modifications that eventually inhibit the activity of histone deacetylase (HDAC), and will affect the expressions of genes Pdx1, Nkx6.1, and Ngn3 during pancreatic organogenesis. This experiment was designed to study the effect of VPA exposure in pregnant rats on the activity of HDAC that controls the expression of genes regulating the development of beta cells in the pancreas to synthesize and secrete insulin. This study used 30 pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats, divided into 4 groups, as follows: (1) a control group of pregnant rats without VPA administration, (2) pregnant rats administered with 250 mg VPA on day 10 of pregnancy, (3) pregnant rats administered with 250 mg VPA on day 13 of pregnancy, and (4) pregnant rats administered with 250 mg VPA on day 16 of pregnancy. Eighty-four newborn rats born to control rats and rats administered with VPA on days 10, 13, and 16 of pregnancy were used to measure serum glucose, insulin, DNA, RNA, and ratio of RNA/DNA concentrations in the pancreas and to observe the microscopical condition of the pancreas at the ages of 4 to 32 weeks postpartum with 4-week intervals. The results showed that at the age of 32 weeks, the offspring of pregnant rats administered with 250 mg VPA on days 10, 13, and 16 of pregnancy had higher serum glucose concentrations and lower serum insulin concentrations, followed by decreased concentrations of RNA, and the ratio of RNA/DNA in the pancreas. Microscopical observations showed that the pancreas of the rats born to pregnant rats administered with VPA during pregnancy had low immunoreaction to insulin. The exposure of pregnant rats to VPA during pregnancy disturbs organogenesis of the pancreas of the embryos that eventually disturb the insulin production in the beta cells indicated by the decreased insulin secretion during postnatal life.

Abstract
Bats are an important natural reservoir of zoonotic viral pathogens. We previously isolated an alphaherpesvirus in fruit bats in Indonesia, and here establish the presence of viruses belonging to other taxa of the family Herpesviridae. We screened the same fruit bat population with pan-herpesvirus PCR and discovered 68 sequences of novel gammaherpesvirus, designated 'megabat gammaherpesvirus' (MgGHV). A phylogenetic analysis of approximately 3.4 kbp of continuous MgGHV sequences encompassing the glycoprotein B gene and DNA polymerase gene revealed that the MgGHV sequences are distinct from those of other reported gammaherpesviruses. Further analysis suggested the existence of co-infections of herpesviruses in Indonesian fruit bats. Our findings extend our understanding of the infectious cycles of herpesviruses in bats in Indonesia and the phylogenetic diversity of the gammaherpesviruses.

Abstract
Aim: A good skin graft histopathology is followed by formation of hair follicle, sweat gland, sebaceous gland, blood vessel, lightly dense connective tissue, epidermis, and dermis layer. This research aimed to observe histopathology feature and cytokeratin AE1/AE3 expression on cat skin post skin grafting within a different period of time. Materials and Methods: Nine male Indonesian local cats aged 1-2 years old weighing 3-4 kg were separated into three groups. First surgery created defect wound of 2 cm × 2 cm in size to whole groups. The wounds were left alone for several days, differing in interval between each group, respectively: Group I (for 2 days), Group II (for 4 days), and Group III (for 6 days). The second surgery was done to each group which harvested skin of thoracic area and applied it on recipient wound bed. On day 24th post skin graft was an examination of histopathology and cytokeratin AE1/AE3 immunohistochemistry. Results: Group I donor skin’s epidermis layer had not formed completely whereas epidermis of donor skin of Groups II and III had completely formed. In all group hair follicle, sweat gland, sebaceous gland, and neovascularization were found. The density of connective tissue in Group I was very solid than other groups. Cytokeratin AE1/AE3 expression was found on donor skin’s epithelial cell in epidermis and dermis layer with very brown intensity for Group II, brown intensity for Group II, and lightly brown for Group I. Conclusion: Histopathological structure and cytokeratin AE1/AE3 expression post skin graft are better in Groups II and III compared to Group I.

Abstract
Aim: This research was conducted to differentiate and characterize eight Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolates collected from vaccinated chicken at commercial flocks in West Java, Indonesia, in 2011, 2014 and 2015 by pathotype specific primers. Materials and Methods: A total of eight NDV isolates collected from clinical outbreaks among commercial vaccinated flocks in West Java, Indonesia, in 2011, 2014, and 2015 were used in this study. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect and differentiate virulence of NDV strains, using three sets of primers targeting their M and F gene. First primers were universal primers to detect NDV targeting matrix (M) gene. Other two sets of primers were specific for the fusion (F) gene cleavage site sequence of virulent and avirulent NDV strains. Results: Our results showed that three isolates belong to NDV virulent strains, and other five isolates belong to NDV avirulent strains. The nucleotide sequence of the F protein cleavage site showed 112K/R-R-Q/R-K-R/G-F117 on NDV virulent strains and 112G-K/R-Q-G-R-L117 on NDV avirulent strain. Conclusion: Result from the current study suggested that NDV virulent strain were circulating among vaccinated chickens in West Java, Indonesia; this might possess a risk of causing ND outbreaks and causing economic losses within the poultry industry.

Abstract
Bats are an important natural reservoir for a variety of viral pathogens, including polyomaviruses (PyVs). The aims of this study were: (i) to determine which PyVs are present in bats in Indonesia and (ii) to analyze the evolutionary relationships between bat PyVs and other known PyVs. Using broad-spectrum polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assays, we screened PyV DNA isolated from spleen samples from 82 wild fruit bats captured in Indonesia. Fragments of the PyV genome were detected in 10 of the 82 spleen samples screened, and eight full-length viral genome sequences were obtained using an inverse PCR method. A phylogenetic analysis of eight whole viral genome sequences showed that BatPyVs form two distinct genetic clusters within the proposed genus Orthopolyomavirus that are genetically different from previously described BatPyVs. Interestingly, one group of BatPyVs is genetically related to the primate PyVs, including human PyV9 and trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated PyV. This study has identified the presence of novel PyVs in fruit bats in Indonesia and provides genetic information about these BatPyVs.

Abstract
Fowl glioma-inducing virus (FGV), which belongs to avian leukosis virus (ALV) subgroup A, induces fowl glioma. This disease is characterized by multiple nodular gliomatous growths of astrocytes and has been previously reported in Europe, South Africa, Australia, the United States and Japan. FGV and FGV variants have spread to ornamental Japanese fowl, including Japanese bantams (Gallus gallus domesticus), in Japan. However, it is unclear how and where FGV emerged and whether FGV is related to the past fowl glioma in European countries. In this study, the prevalence of FGV in European, Asian and Japanese native chickens was examined. FGV could not be isolated from any chickens in Germany and Asian countries other than Japan. Eighty (26%) out of 307 chickens reared in Japan were positive by FGV-screening nested polymerase chain reaction and 11 FGV variants with an FGV-specific sequence in their 3' untranslated region were isolated. In addition, four other ALVs lacking the FGV-specific sequence were isolated from Japanese bantams with fowl glioma and/or cerebellar hypoplasia. These isolates were considered to be distinct recombinant viruses between FGV variants and endogenous/exogenous avian retroviruses. These results suggest that the variants as well as distinct recombinant ALVs are prevalent among Japanese native chickens in Japan and that FGV may have emerged by recombination among avian retroviruses in the chickens of this country.

Abstract
The rapid outbreak of the highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus and its transmission to humans have induced world-wide fears of a new influenza pandemic. The most effective method for the reduction of the impact of such a pandemic would be prophylaxis with a safe and effective vaccine, as well as anti-viral materials. In this study, we generated the specific antibodies 'immunoglobulin yolk (IgY)' from ostrich eggs immunized with a full-length glycosylated recombinant H5 protein of the strain H5N1/Vietnam/1203/2004. Using this simple method, abundant specific antibody (about 200 g) against H5 was successfully produced by one female ostrich in a year. The IgY from the immunized ostrich eggs had strong reactivity to the H5N1 virus as well as to H5 proteins. Furthermore, the antibodies strongly inhibited cytopathic effects in MDCK cells and prevented the death of an embryonated chick after a viral inoculation, indicating strong neutralization activity against H5N1 infections. These findings suggest that the neutralization antibody produced by the H5-immunized ostrich is suitable for industrial purposes, such as the development of antibody-binding filters, which can be applied to a mask or to air-conditioners to prevent the influenza pandemic through antigen-antibody reactions. Of note, the mortality rate of chicks inoculated with the H5N1 virus was dramatically decreased with antibody injection. This indicates that ostrich IgY is a potentially effective therapeutic modality for H5N1 infection.

Abstract
SC1 is an immunoglobulin superfamily cell adhesion molecule purified from the Gallus gallus spinal cord. SC1 is present in embryonic tissues and plays a role in chick development through its cell adhesive property. Interestingly, increased SC1 expression is observed in some sporadic tumours of the chicken, including Marek's disease-induced lymphomas and in nephroblastomas. To elucidate the possible functions of SC1 in tumour progression in the chicken, SC1 cDNA was introduced into the endogenous SC1-negative Marek's disease-derived chicken lymphoblastoid cell line MDCC-MSB1, and subsequently the metastatic potentials of these cell lines were analysed. The in vitro analyses revealed that the SC1-transfected MDCC-MSB1 cells were enhanced in their adhesive and migratory activities in the presence of the SC1 proteins. In addition, the metastatic potential of the SC1-transfected MDCC-MSB1 cells to the lung was enhanced after intravenous implantation into chickens. These findings suggest that the expression of SC1 contributes to the malignancy and metastatic properties of chicken Marek's disease-induced lymphomas.

Protection from avian influenza H5N1 virus infection with antibody-impregnated filters. Virol J 2011; 8:54. [PMID: 21303494 PMCID: PMC3045345 DOI: 10.1186/1743-422x-8-54] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2010] [Accepted: 02/08/2011] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
There is worldwide concern over the possibility of a new influenza pandemic originating from the highly pathogenic avian H5N1 influenza viruses. We herein demonstrate that functional air filters impregnated with ostrich antibodies against the hemagglutinin of the H5N1 virus protect chickens from death by H5N1 transmission. These results suggest that the use of ostrich antibody-impregnated filters might be a powerful way to prevent the transmission of H5N1.

Antibodies against swine influenza virus neutralize the pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1. Mol Med Rep 2011; 4:209-14.

Abstract
The most effective method for the prevention of influenza infection would be prophylaxis with a safe and effective vaccine and anti-viral materials. After vaccination, neutralizing antibodies are generated by plasma cells following various immune responses, thus resulting in protection against an infectious agent expressing the same antigens. However, in the case of novel or unknown pathogens, the onset of immune responses is occasionally delayed, thus resulting in considerable morbidity and mortality. Antibodies are therefore considered to play an important role in preventing infectious diseases. Furthermore, antibodies are used for additional purposes, including diagnosis and immunotherapy. In the beginning of spring 2009, an outbreak of influenza in North America was caused by a novel strain of influenza virus, designated pandemic influenza A/H1N1 2009. Initially, most people had low immunity against this pathogen, resulting in the worldwide spread of the infection to produce a so-called 'pandemic'. We herein report the generation of 'immunoglobulin yolk (IgY)' neutralizing antibodies against the pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1 from ostrich eggs immunized with a swine influenza virus vaccine strain. Using this simple method, a large amount of specific antibody against the influenza virus was produced by one female ostrich. An enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay and immunocytochemistry indicated that the IgY from the immunized ostrich eggs possessed strong cross-reactivity to the pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1 2009, as well as to the swine influenza virus. Moreover, the hemaggregation activities of the erythrocytes induced by pandemic influenza A/H1N1 virus were inhibited by the ostrich antibodies generated by swine virus immunization. In addition, the cytopathological effects on MDCK cells of infection with pandemic virus were clearly inhibited in co-cultures with the antibodies, indicating the neutralizing of viral infectivity in the cells. In conclusion, we have succeeded in the mass production of neutralizing antibodies against pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1 2009 using ostrich eggs immunized with swine influenza virus antigens. This enables the cost-effective production of effective antibodies, which could be applied to facial masks and air-conditioning filters in order to prevent populations from acquiring pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1.

Abstract
An outbreak of influenza in 2009 was found to be caused by a novel strain of influenza virus designated as pandemic influenza A/H1N1 2009. Vaccination with recent seasonal influenza vaccines induced little or no cross-reactive antibody response to the pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1 2009 in any age group in human populations. Accordingly, most people had low immunity against this pathogen, thus resulting in the worldwide spread of the infection to produce a so-called 'pandemic'. This report presents the important finding that ostrich eggs generate cross-reactive antibodies to the pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1 following immunization of female ostrich with a seasonal influenza vaccine. This simple method produced a large amount of antibodies against influenza viruses by one female ostrich. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunocytochemistry indicated that the ostrich antibodies possessed strong cross-reactivity to the pandemic A/H1N1 as well as to the seasonal A/H1N1, A/H3N2 and B viruses. The hemaggregation activities of erythrocytes induced by this pandemic strain were also inhibited by the ostrich antibodies. In addition, the cytopathological effects of infection with a pandemic virus on MDCK cells were clearly inhibited in co-cultures with the ostrich antibodies, thereby indicating the neutralization of viral infectivity in the cells. In conclusion, cross-reactive neutralization antibodies against pandemic influenza virus A/H1N1 2009 were successfully generated in ostrich eggs produced by females immunized with seasonal influenza viral vaccine.

Involvement of gicerin, a cell adhesion molecule, in the portal metastasis of rat colorectal adenocarcinoma cells. Oncol Rep 2010; 24:1427-31.

Abstract
Gicerin, an Ig-superfamily cell adhesion molecule, has homophilic adhesion activity, thus leading to the formation of gicerin aggregates. Gicerin is highly expressed in various embryonic tissues, and it contributes to development through its adhesive activities. In contrast, the expression of the protein is limited to the muscular tissues and endothelial cells in the mature animals. In the liver, gicerin is constitutively expressed in sinusoidal endothelial cells. Interestingly, an overexpression of gicerin is found in a variety of tumors and may play a role in tumorigenesis. Previously, up-regulated expression of the gicerin protein was found in some sporadic cases of chicken colorectal adenocarcinomas and their hepatic metastasized lesions. In the present study, gicerin cDNA was introduced into endogenous gicerin negative ACL-15 cells, a rat colon adenocarcinoma cell line. The cells were subsequently evaluated for changes in their metastatic potentials in order to elucidate the possible role of gicerin in the hepatic metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinomas. The stable overexpression of gicerin in the cells enhanced the self-aggregation and migratory activities on the protein compared with the mock-transfectants. In addition, the gicerin- transfectants had enhanced metastatic potential to the liver compared with mock-transfected cells after implantation into the ileocolic vein of the cognate rats. These results suggest that gicerin might promote the interaction of tumor cells with a hepatic endothelium, thus leading to the hepatic metastasis of colon adenocarcinomas.

Abstract
Gicerin is a cell adhesion molecule in the immunoglobulin superfamily. This molecule has homophilic and heterophilic adhesive activities, binding to the neurite out-growth factor (NOF). We have previously reported that gicerin plays an important role in the development and regeneration as well as in the metastasis of tumors through its adhesive activities, mediating cell-cell and/or cell-extracellular matrix interactions. In this study, we investigated the involvement of gicerin in a dermal autograft chicken model. Gicerin and NOF were transiently present in the regenerating epithelia after the dermal graft transplantation. The treatment with an anti-gicerin polyclonal antibody, by placing drops onto the wounds, inhibited the adhesiveness of the grafts to the marginal skin. The chimeric protein of gicerin-IgG, gicerin-Fc, and NOF proteins promoted the regeneration of the grafts. These findings suggest the potential function of gicerin in dermal autografts, and gicerin and NOF proteins could help clinical improvement after transplantations.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical examinations of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) were performed on six enlarged livers from broiler chickens with malformation of the extrahepatic biliary tract (group 1) and on eight broiler livers affected with naturally occurring cholangiohepatitis without biliary malformation (group 2). The livers from both groups were grossly enlarged, firm and tan-coloured, and histologically revealed severe diffuse fibrosis with proliferation of bile ductules. HSCs positive for muscle actin and desmin actively proliferated in the perisinusoidal space and around newly formed bile ductules. There was no difference in the immunohistochemical reactivities and location of HSCs between the two groups. The findings suggest that the diffuse hepatic fibrosis found in group 2 as well as group 1 results from reactive proliferation of HSCs.

Abstract
The Ito cell (fat-storing cell) lies in perisinusoidal space of liver and has a variety of functions. We investigated the immunohistochemistry and ultrastructure of Ito cells in normal and cholestatic livers of broiler chickens. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that Ito cells expressed HHF35 muscle actin, vimentin, desmin, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), chromogranin A and cytokeratins in normal livers. These cells were diffusely scattered throughout the lobules. Livers treated with extrahepatic bile duct ligation (BDL) showed cholestasis, fibrosis, proliferation of biliary ductules and Ito cells. The Ito cells were frequently found in fibrotic areas and were larger in size with more extensive immunoreactivity than those of normal livers. Ultrastructural study demonstrated that Ito cells were closely associated with the production of collagen fibers in BDL livers. These findings suggest that Ito cells actively react against hepatocytic injuries and play a major role in the hepatic fibrogenesis of cholestatic livers of chickens.

Abstract
Malformation of the extrahepatic biliary tracts was observed in six of 88 enlarged, firm and discoloured livers collected at a slaughterhouse. Histologically, the six livers were characterized by diffuse cholangiocellular proliferation with fibrosis, extremely similar to the condition induced by bile duct ligation. These findings suggested that some cases of cholangiohepatitis in chickens are caused by biliary malformations with bile stasis.
