The effects of avian influenza virus (AIV) infection on systemic phagocytes and pulmonary macrophages of turkeys were studied. There was a significant increase (P < 0.0001) in oxidative burst in systemic phagocytes of AIV-inoculated turkeys on 2, 4, 6, and 8 days postinoculation (PI), as measured by chemiluminescence. There was also a significant increase (P < 0.02) in oxidative burst in pulmonary macrophages on day 4 PI. The chemiluminescence response was depressed on 6, 8, and 10 days PI in AIV-inoculated turkeys compared with controls. The increase in oxidative response in both systemic phagocytes and pulmonary macrophages correlated with the peak virus titer in the lungs and trachea of AIV-inoculated inoculated turkeys. Bacterial killing by pulmonary macrophages from AIV-inoculated turkeys was reduced on days 6 and 10 PI compared with uninoculated controls. Histopathological changes in trachea were more pronounced on day 6 PI in AIV-inoculated turkeys; no significant changes were detected in the lungs. These data indicate that compromised functional capacity of pulmonary macrophages predisposes turkeys to secondary bacterial infections.

D009092 Mucous Membrane An EPITHELIUM with MUCUS-secreting cells, such as GOBLET CELLS. It forms the lining of many body cavities, such as the DIGESTIVE TRACT, the RESPIRATORY TRACT, and the reproductive tract. Mucosa, rich in blood and lymph vessels, comprises an inner epithelium, a middle layer (lamina propria) of loose CONNECTIVE TISSUE, and an outer layer (muscularis mucosae) of SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS that separates the mucosa from submucosa.

D009980 Influenza A virus The type species of the genus ALPHAINFLUENZAVIRUS that causes influenza and other diseases in humans and animals. Antigenic variation occurs frequently between strains, allowing classification into subtypes and variants. Transmission is usually by aerosol (human and most non-aquatic hosts) or waterborne (ducks). Infected birds shed the virus in their saliva, nasal secretions, and feces.

D002642 Chick Embryo The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
