Immunosuppressive viruses cause substantial economic losses to the poultry industry. Chicken anaemia virus (CAV) causes severe disease in young chickens, whereas subclinical infection in older birds causes immunosuppression. In this study, we addressed the ability of CAV to interfere with production of antimicrobial molecule nitric oxide (NO) by macrophages. NO production in chicken macrophage cell line HD11 was induced using both Toll-like receptor 4 agonist, bacterial lipopolysaccharide, and an immune modulator, interferon-γ. In addition, we treated macrophages with CAV propagated in chicken lymphoblastoid cells. The levels of NO were measured by the Griess reaction. Addition of CAV decreased both the interferon-γ and the lipopolysaccharide associated induction of NO. Observed effect was not caused by CAV-related cytotoxicity, as no decrease in number of viable cells was observed. Although CAV could not completely abrogate NO production, attenuation of NO induction was clearly present. We have previously shown that CAV interferes with the expression of interferons in chickens during subclinical infection. Since the signalling pathways of expression of interferons and type 2 nitric oxide synthase, enzyme involved in NO formation, overlap, we conclude that measured decrease in NO levels is a consequence of CAV interference with interferon and NO synthase signalling. Regardless of the fact whether the attenuation of NO serves as a viral primary defence, or is only a secondary effect, it could impair the immune response to other pathogens and contribute to the global immunosuppression in chicken houses.

VIRUS PIŠČANČJE ANEMIJE VPLIVA NA PROIZVODNJO DUŠIKOVIH OKSIDOV V MAKROFAGIH PIŠČANEV HD11
Povzetek: Imunosupresivni virusi povzročajo velike gospodarske izgube v perutninski industriji. Virus piščančje anemije (CAV) pri mladih piščancih povzroča hudo bolezen, medtem ko subklinična okužba pri starejših pticah povzroča oslabljen imunski odziv. V tej raziskavi je bil spremljan vpliv CAV na proizvodnjo dušikovih oksidov (NO) v makrofagih. Proizvodnja NO v piščančjih makrofagih v celični liniji HD11 je bila sprožena z uporabo agonista Toll-u podobnega receptorja 4, bakterijskega lipopolisaharida in imunskega modulatorja interferona-γ, makrofagi pa so bili okuženi s CAV, razmnoženim v piščančjih limfoblastoidnih celicah. Ravni NO so izmerili po Griessovi reakciji. Prisotnost CAV je zmanjšala proizvodnjo NO, spodbujeno tako z interferonom-γ, kot z lipopolisaharidom. Opaženega učinka ni povzročila citotoksičnost, povezana s CAV, saj ni bilo opaziti zmanjšanja števila živih celic. Čeprav CAV ni popolnoma zavrla nastajanja NO, je bilo očitno prisotno zmanjšanje nastajanja NO. Pred tem so pokazali, da CAV moti izražanje interferonov pri piščancih med subklinično okužbo. Ker se poti znotrajceličnega prenosa urejanja izražanja interferonov in sintaze dušikovih oksidov tipa 2, encima, ki sodeluje pri tvorbi NO, prekrivajo, predvidevamo, da je izmerjeno znižanje ravni NO posledica motenj CAV pri znotrajceličnem prenosu sporočila interferona do sintaze dušikovih oksidov. Ne glede na to, ali zaviranje nastajanja NO služi kot primarna virusna obramba ali je le sekundarni učinek, lahko poslabša imunski odziv na druge patogene in prispeva k splošnemu zmanjšanju imunskega odziva v kurnikih ali na kokošjih farmah.
Ključne besede: piščanci; zmanjšanje imunskega odziva; virus piščančje anemije (CAV); makrofagi; dušikov oksid (NO)
