摘要: Campylobacter jejuni is considered as the leading cause of worldwide foodborne bacterial gastroenteritis. Chicken is the main reservoir of C. jejuni. Avian innate immune responses to C. jejuni remain poorly defined. Chicken host defense peptides (HDPs) are the major components of avian innate immune system. This study aimed to char-acterize the chicken HDPs responses to C. jejuni in vitro and in vivo. In the HD11 macrophage cell line, the HDPs, including AvBD1-2, CATH1-3, AvBD7, AvBD4, and AvBD6, were relatively higher expressed in untreated cells, whereas the expressions were suppressed after C. jejuni infection. In contrast, C. jejuni infection significantly increased the expression of the lower expressed HDPs, such as AvBD3, AvBD5, AvBD8-14, and CATHB1, in untreated cells. In the chicken challenge experiment, the immune tissues of spleens and cecal tonsils were collected from C. jejuni-infected and uninfected chickens at 1, 3 and 15 day post inoculation (DPI). In spleens of C. jejuni-infected chickens, only AvBD14 expression was elevated at 1 DPI. The majority of avian HDPs were significantly up-regulated at 3 DPI and dramatically decreased to the levels of uninfected controls at 15 DPI. In chicken cecal tonsils, only AvBD9 and AvBD14 were significantly up-regulated at 1 DPI with C. jejuni infection. Collectively, C. jejuni infection induced dynamic expression of chicken HDPs in both macrophage HD11 and immune tissues of chickens. Suppression of chicken HDPs expression may be an evasion strategy of C. jejuni for persistent colonization in chicken intestine by circumventing the chicken immune system.
