传染性法氏囊病(IBD)的特征是由于萎缩的腔上囊(BF)中淋巴细胞的耗竭而引起的免疫抑制。我们有时会遇到矛盾的结果:鸡感染疫苗IBD病毒(IBDV)株,有时表现出高度萎缩的BF,但没有免疫抑制。在这项研究中,接种疫苗或IBDV野生型毒株的鸡随后接种纽卡斯尔病病毒(NDV)的B1毒株。对法氏囊变化进行组织学检查,重点检查法氏囊滤泡。同时用血凝抑制试验检测其对NDV的免疫反应性。在大体检查中,我们在疫苗株给药组(疫苗组)中观察到少数鸡出现严重萎缩的BF,严重程度与野生型菌株给药组(野生型组)相同。然而,这些鸡保留了对NDV的体液抗体应答,并显示具有比野生型组更多的囊卵泡。这些结果表明,宏观评价不能准确地反映免疫反应性和法氏囊损伤的程度,在IBDV感染鸡。我们还发现了非免疫抑制鸡在野生型组。根据我们的统计分析,这些非免疫抑制的鸡保留了显着较高数量的正常卵泡和总卵泡。此外,NDV-HI滴度和正常卵泡数之间的相关系数较高,发现在野生型组。这些结果表明,保留的正常卵泡的数量是重要的免疫反应性感染IBDV的鸡。
Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is characterized by immunosuppression due to the depletion of lymphocytes in the atrophied bursa of Fabricius (BF). We have sometimes encountered contradictory findings: chickens infected with the vaccine IBD virus (IBDV) strain have sometimes exhibited a highly atrophied BF, but not immunosuppression. In this study, chickens administered vaccine or wild-type strains of IBDV were later vaccinated with the B1 strain of the Newcastle disease virus (NDV). Bursal changes were examined histologically with a focus on the bursal follicle. The immunoreactivity to NDV was also evaluated with the hemagglutination inhibition test. In gross examination, we observed a few chickens with a severely atrophied BF in vaccine strain-administered groups (vaccine groups), and the level of severity was the same as that in the wild-type strain-administered group (wild-type group). However, these chickens retained humoral antibody responses to NDV and were revealed to possess a higher number of bursal follicles than those of the wild-type group. These results indicated that macroscopic evaluation dose not accurately reflect the immunoreactivity and degree of bursal damage in IBDV-administered chickens. We also found non-immunosuppressed chickens in the wild-type group. These non-immunosuppressed chickens retained a significantly higher number of normal follicles and total follicles according to our statistical analysis. Furthermore, a high correlation coefficient between the NDV-HI titer and the number of normal follicles was found in the wild-type group. These results implied that the retained number of normal follicles is important for the immunoreactivity of chickens infected with IBDV.
