“…Peritonitis is a common clinical symptom of GPS infection [4,9,10] and may stem from the impairment of inflammation-induced apoptosis [11]. Meanwhile, numerous studies have shown that the effective treatment of peritonitis is closely related to the regulation of apoptosis [12][13][14].…”

Glaesserella parasuis (GPS), a causative agent of Glässer’s disease, is thought to be the main fatal cause of peritonitis in swine, thus resulting in high mortality and morbidity and significant economic losses to the swine industry. However, the mechanisms of GPS infection-induced apoptosis and possible therapeutic pathway for GPS infection in peritonitis remain unclear. Baicalin has important biological functions during disease treatment, such as antiviral, bacterial inhibition, anti-apoptosis, and anti-inflammatory. However, whether baicalin has anti-apoptotic effects during the process of GPS infection in peritonitis is unclear. In the present study, the anti-apoptotic effect and mechanisms of baicalin in GPS infection-induced apoptosis were investigated in porcine peritoneal mesothelial cells (PPMC). The results showed that baicalin could inhibit the apoptosis rate occurrence of PPMC induced by GPS to various degrees and inhibit the expression of apoptosis-related genes and cleaved caspase-3. Meanwhile, baicalin significantly antagonized the expression of p-JNK, p-p38, and p-ERK induced by GPS in PPMC. These findings for the first time demonstrate that baicalin exerted the effect of antagonizing GPS induced apoptosis in PPMC by inhibiting the activation of the PKC-MAPK pathway and could be a therapeutic option in the management of GPS infection.

Glaesserella parasuis, an important respiratory bacterial pathogen, causes Glässer’s disease in piglets, with potential immunosuppression. We established a piglet infection model and explored the immunosuppression mechanism to improve our understanding of the host immune response to G. parasuis. Twenty piglets were randomly divided into two groups (n = 10). The infection group was intraperitoneally challenged with 2 × 108 CFU of G. parasuis in 2 mL TSB. The control group was intraperitoneally injected with equivalent TSB. After 72 h, the piglets were sacrificed, and spleen tissue was collected. PD-1/PD-L1 expression was determined. The splenocytes were isolated to detect CD3+ T, CD3+CD4+ T, CD3+CD8+ T and CD3−CD21+cell differentiation. Via data-independent acquisition (DIA), we compared the proteomics of healthy and infected spleen tissues. Glaesserella parasuis modified CD3+ T, CD3+CD4+ T, CD3+CD8+ T and CD3−CD21+ cell differentiation and PD-1/PD-L1 expression in the spleen. The infection group had 596 proteins with significant differences in expression, of which 301 were significantly upregulated and 295 downregulated. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were mainly related to immune responses. This is the first study on PD-1/PD-L1 expression in the spleen associated with immunosuppression in a piglet model to explore the protein changes related to immune responses via DIA.

Glaesserella parasuis (GPS) is an important bacterial pathogen of swine. Serotype identification has presented a bottleneck in GPS research since it was first identified as the pathogen causing Glässer’s disease in pigs in 1910. This paper presents a systematic review of the history of the development and application of gel immunodiffusion (GID), indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA), and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) typing methods for GPS, and the discovery of their shared antigenic basis. It provides a systematic theoretical overview of the immunology and principles underlying the three typing methods and offers new ideas for research into the prevention and control of Glässer’s disease. In 1992, GPS was first classified into serotypes 1–15 using GID based on GPS heat-stable antigens, but about 25% of the strains were found to be non-typeable, and the composition of their antigens for serotyping was unclear. In 2003, the IHA method was established based on saline-extracted antigens of GPS, whose sensitivity and typing rate were higher than for GID, although about 15% of strains were still found to be non-typeable. The results of IHA and GID typing are roughly consistent, since they share the same GPS surface polysaccharide serotyping antigens, although whether these are capsular polysaccharides, lipopolysaccharides, or other polysaccharides, remains to be determined. In 2013, the Capsular polysaccharide (CPS) synthetic gene clusters from GPS serotypes 1–15 were successfully analyzed, confirming that CPS is essential for the formation of antigens for serotyping. In 2015, primers were designed based on the specific target genes of GPS capsules to establish a PCR typing method (H-PCR) for GPS, which, however, could not identify serotypes 5 and 12. In 2017, a new PCR typing method (J-PCR) was established based on the specific target genes of GPS capsules, which could identify serotypes 5 and 12. A combination of the two PCR typing methods enables the typing of almost all GPS strains, and the consistency with GID and IHA was verified using molecular biological methods. The antigenic basis of the three typing methods was shown to involve the GPS capsule. PCR typing methods are characterized by simple operation, fast speed, and low cost, and can successfully solve many problems in GID and IHA serotyping, and so have become widely adopted.
