Synergy between HA cleavage site sequence and NA-mediated plasminogen recruitment as a virulence mechanism for low pathogenic avian influenza

Hui Min Lee, Kate Sutton, William T. Harvey…·Paul Digard

This study identifies a virulence mechanism in low pathogenic avian influenza viruses where neuraminidase recruits plasminogen to cleave hemagglutinin, enhancing pathogenicity.

Interleukin 10 controls the balance between tolerance, pathogen elimination and immunopathology in birds.

Dominique Meunier, Ricardo Corona-Torres, Kay Boulton…·David Arthur Hume

This study investigates the role of IL10 in avian mucosal immunity by generating IL10-deficient chickens, showing altered microbiome composition and enhanced pathogen clearance with increased inflammation.

Infectious bronchitis virus vaccination, but not the presence of XCR1, is correlated with large differences in chicken caecal microbiota

Laura Glendinning, Zhiguang Wu, Lonneke Vervelde…·Adam Balic

This study compares the caecal microbiota of XCR1 knockout chickens with and without IBV vaccination, finding that vaccination, not XCR1 absence, significantly alters microbiota composition.

Characterisation of subpopulations of chicken mononuclear phagocytes that express TIM4 and the macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor (CSF1R)

Tuanjun Hu, Zhiguang wu, Stephen J. Bush…·Pete Kaiser

This study identifies TIM4-expressing mononuclear phagocytes in chickens, distinguishing phagocytic Kupffer cells from non-phagocytic DC-like cells using CSF1R reporters.
