Oral antibody to interleukin-10 receptor 2, but not interleukin-10 receptor 1, as an effective Eimeria species immunotherapy in broiler chickens

Abstract

Coccidiosis is a major gastrointestinal disease caused by several Eimeria species in floor raised chickens. Feeding an antibody to interleukin 10 (aIL-10) ameliorates the negative symptoms of coccidiosis in broilers, i.e., lack of weight gain, decreased feed conversion, and mortality. IL-10 signals by forming a ligand-receptor complex with IL-10 Receptor 1 (IL-10 R1) and IL-10 Receptor 2 (IL-10 R2). In this study, we hypothesize oral antibodies to the IL-10 receptors will neutralize the IL-10 signaling pathway equal to or better than aIL-10 to act as an oral anti-coccidiosis immunotherapy. A total of 5 sequential feed trials, set up as a 4 (diet antibody) × 2 (Eimeria challenge) factorial design, tested oral egg yolk antibodies to a total of 6 IL-10 R1 epitopes and 3 IL-10 R2 epitopes compared to a control antibody diet. A total of 10 pens of 5 chicks/pen/diet antibody/Eimeria challenge were housed for 21 d. On day 3 of age, chicks were either infected or not infected with a 10× dose of an Eimeria vaccine containing Eimeria acervulina, Eimeria tenella, and Eimeria maxima. Pen feed consumption and mean body weights were assessed weekly (d1, d7, d14, and d21); fecal oocyst shedding was assessed on day 10. Data were analyzed using a 2-way ANOVA. No significant interaction on chick weight was observed in chicks fed IL-10 R1 antibodies compared to chicks fed the control antibody was observed. In studies evaluating aIL-10 R2 oral antibodies, infected chicks fed aIL-10 R2: epitope 1 overcame the negative effects of Eimeria infection and had similar 21-d body weight to uninfected chicks (P4 = 0.07). We hypothesized that feeding oral antibodies to the IL-10 receptors would result in equivalent anti-coccidial benefits to aIL-10. However, none of the 6 antibodies to IL-10 R1 epitopes yielded any benefits during Eimeria infection compared to controls. A total of 2 oral antibodies to IL-10 R2 showed promising results equivalent to the aIL-10 immunotherapeutic. Immunofluorescence staining shows that the IL-10R2 significantly increases in abundance in response to Eimeria infection, whereas IL-10R1 does not.
