Abstract
Vaccine adjuvants, serving as non-specific immune enhancers, play a pivotal role in the immunoprevention and control of animal diseases. This study utilized prokaryotic expression systems to express and purify chicken-derived cIFITM1, cIFITM3, and cViperin, which were then formulated as adjuvants with H9N2 avian influenza virus antigens to create inactivated vaccines. These vaccines were administered to SPF chickens to investigate their immunopotentiating functions. Additionally, the proteins were assessed for their ability to act as standalone immune enhancers. The results demonstrated that cIFITM1, cIFITM3, and cViperin significantly elevated serum hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody titers. Notably, when used individually, these proteins markedly enhanced the antiviral capabilities of challenged chickens, leading to alleviated clinical symptoms, reduced tracheal virus replication, diminished virus shedding, and lessened histopathological damage, with cIFITM1 exhibiting the most pronounced effect. Furthermore, the protective efficacy of two H9N2 recombinant virus inactivated vaccines supplemented with cIFITM1 adjuvant was validated, achieving a 100 % vaccine protection efficiency. In conclusion, cIFITM1, cIFITM3, and cViperin as adjuvants for influenza vaccines effectively inhibit virus replication and shedding, highlighting their significant potential in influenza prevention and control.
期刊介绍：
Veterinary Microbiology is concerned with microbial (bacterial, fungal, viral) diseases of domesticated vertebrate animals (livestock, companion animals, fur-bearing animals, game, poultry, fish) that supply food, other useful products or companionship. In addition, Microbial diseases of wild animals living in captivity, or as members of the feral fauna will also be considered if the infections are of interest because of their interrelation with humans (zoonoses) and/or domestic animals. Studies of antimicrobial resistance are also included, provided that the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge. Authors are strongly encouraged to read - prior to submission - the Editorials (''Scope or cope'' and ''Scope or cope II'') published previously in the journal. The Editors reserve the right to suggest submission to another journal for those papers which they feel would be more appropriate for consideration by that journal.
Original research papers of high quality and novelty on aspects of control, host response, molecular biology, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of microbial diseases of animals are published. Papers dealing primarily with immunology, epidemiology, molecular biology and antiviral or microbial agents will only be considered if they demonstrate a clear impact on a disease. Papers focusing solely on diagnostic techniques (such as another PCR protocol or ELISA) will not be published - focus should be on a microorganism and not on a particular technique. Papers only reporting microbial sequences, transcriptomics data, or proteomics data will not be considered unless the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge.
Drug trial papers will be considered if they have general application or significance. Papers on the identification of microorganisms will also be considered, but detailed taxonomic studies do not fall within the scope of the journal. Case reports will not be published, unless they have general application or contain novel aspects. Papers of geographically limited interest, which repeat what had been established elsewhere will not be considered. The readership of the journal is global.
