Akirin2 expression in response to vaccine-induced immunity in chicken
1College of Life Science and Technology, Harbin Normal University, Harbin, China.
Abstract:
Akirin2 is a nuclear factor that plays an important role in the development and regulation of innate immune response. In this study, akirin2 gene expression in several primary immune organs (liver, thymus, and bursa) of Hi-Line Brown chicken administered with the LoSota vaccine was analyzed during the various stages of increase in Newcastle disease virus antibody titer. The results revealed that akirin2 expression was significantly higher in the liver (P < 0.01) and bursa (P < 0.05) of vaccinated chicken 7 and 14 days post-immunization, respectively. These results could serve as a foundation for further studies on the functions of akirin2 in immune response.

NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
