Transient GABA immunoreactivity in cranial nerves of the chick embryo

The distribution and time course of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) immunoreactivity was investigated in the cranium of the chick embryo from 2 to 16 days of incubation (E2-16). A fraction of nerve fibers transiently stains GABA-positive in all cranial motor nerves and in the vestibular nerve. Cranial motor nerves stain GABA-positive from E4 to E11, including neuromuscular junctions at E8-11; labeled fibers are most frequent in the motor trigeminal root (E6-9.5). Substantial GABA staining is present from E4 to E10 in a subpopulation (1-2%) of vestibular ganglion cells. Their peripheral processes are labeled in the vestibular endorgan, predominantly in the posterior crista. Some GABA-positive fibers are present in the olfactory nerve (after E5) and in the optic nerve (after E9.5); their immunoreactivity persists throughout the period investigated. Transient GABA immunoreactivity follows "pioneer" fiber outgrowth and coincides with the formation of early synaptic contacts. GABA-containing neurons may change their neuronal phenotype (loss of GABA expression) or they may be eliminated by embryological cell death. Periods of cell death were determined in cranial ganglia and motor nuclei by aggregations of pycnotic cells in the same embryonic material. The periods of embryonic cell death partly coincide with transient GABA immunoreactivity. The function(s) of transient GABA expression is unknown. Some lines of evidence suggest that GABA has neurotrophic functions in developing cranial nerves or their target tissue. In the developing neuromuscular junction, GABA may be involved in the regulation of acetylcholine receptors.     

Coexistence of somatostatin- and avian pancreatic polypeptide (APP)-like immunoreactivity in some forebrain neurons

The indirect immunofluorescence technique was used to demonstrate the coexistence of somatostatin together with avian pancreatic polypeptide-like immunoreactivity within certain neurons of the rat forebrain. Numerous neurons containing these peptides were observed in the neocortex, hippocampus, olfactory tubercle, striatum, nucleus accumbens and lateral septum. In studies of serial sections stained alternately for these two peptides, and in restaining experiments, It could be determined that in many neurons in these areas these two peptides coexisted. In other brain areas such as the anterior periventricular hypothalamus, somatostatin cells were never found to contain avian pancreatic polypeptide-like immunoreactivity. Also, within the pancreas these two peptides were never found to coexist in the same cells. The findings represent a further example of the coexistence of more than one neuropeptide within a single neuron.     

Vasculogenesis and angiogenesis in the subcardinal venous plexus of quail mesonephros: spatial and temporal morphological analysis

Vasculogenesis and angiogenesis are involved in a coordinated program for the development of the mesonephric subcardinal venous plexus of quail embryo. Vasculogenesis occurs between days 3 and 4 of incubation, while angiogenesis takes place from day 5 to day 7. Examination of vascular corrosion casts and whole mounts, and tissue sections labelled with specific markers to hemangioblast lineage (QH1, LEP100 and AcPase activity), allowed us to distinguish six phases in the formation of subcardinal plexus. (1) Appearance of isolated angioblast-like cells where the subcardinal plexus will form. (2) Alignment of angioblast-like cells into cellular strands. (3) Formation of compact vascular cords by association of angioblast-like strands. (4) Polygonal interconnection of vascular cords to constitute the primary subcardinal plexus. In this stage, isolated angioblast-like cells were present inside inter-vascular spaces. (5) The splitting of primary inter-vascular spaces by angiogenic sprouts to form secondary subcardinal plexus (outward angiogenesis). Isolated angioblast-like cells were not present in this stage. (6) Expansion of the secondary subcardinal plexus by insertion of slender transcapillary tissue pillars (inward angiogenesis) and angiogenic sprouts. We also describe three morphogenetic gradients during the development of the subcardinal plexus: ventral-to-dorsal, cranial-to-caudal and lateral-to-medial. Accepted: 9 November 2001

Genetic Conservation of Hemagglutinin Gene of H9 Influenza Virus in Chicken Population in Mainland China

The hemagglutinin (HA) genes of 12 H9N2 influenza virus strains isolated from chickens in Mainland China during the period 1995–2002 were genetically analyzed. All the isolates possessed the same amino acid motif -R-S-S-R/G-L- at the cleavage site of HA. Except for the conserved amino acids, as is the case in the other avian influenza viruses, located in the receptor binding site, all of the 12 isolates possessed N at amino acid position 183; A, T, or V at position 190; K at position 137, whereas the representative strains of the other lineage (except Dk/HK/Y280/97-like lineage) virus of H9N2 viruses had H, E, and R at these positions respectively. These could be considered as the partial molecular markers of the H9 viruses isolated from chickens in Mainland China. Phylogenetic analyses showed HA genes of these isolates belonged to that of A/duck/Hong Kong/Y280/97-like virus lineage. No A/quail/Hong Kong/Gl/97-like virus was found in chicken, population since the outbreak of H9N2 influenza in Mainland China in 1992. The available evidence indicates that HA genes of H9 influenza virus circulating in Mainland China during the past years were well conserved.     

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N8) Virus Spread by Short- and Long-Range Transmission,France, 2016–17

We detected 3 genotypes of highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N8) virus in France during winter 2016–17. Genotype A viruses caused dramatic economic losses in the domestic duck farm industry in southwestern France. Our phylogenetic analysis suggests that genotype A viruses formed 5 distinct geographic clusters in southwestern France. In some clusters, local secondary transmission might have been started by a single introduction. The intensity of the viral spread seems to correspond to the density of duck holdings in each production area. To avoid the introduction of disease into an unaffected area, it is crucial that authorities limit the movements of potentially infected birds.     

Determinants of biosecurity practices in French duck farms after a H5N8 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza epidemic: The effect of farmer knowledge,attitudes and personality traits

Biosecurity is crucial for infectious disease prevention, more importantly in the absence of vaccination. The need for improving the implementation of biosecurity practices was highlighted in French duck farms following the 2016–2017 H5N8 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) epidemic. Farmers have multiple reasons for not implementing biosecurity practices: external (time, money) and internal (socio‐psychological). The purpose of this study was to determine how sets of socio‐psychological factors (i.e. knowledge on biosecurity and avian influenza transmission, attitudes, personality traits, social background) affect the adoption of on‐farm biosecurity practices. Biosecurity practices and socio‐psychological determinants were assessed during 127 duck farm visits, in South West France, using both questionnaires and on‐farm observations. Factorial analysis of mixed data (FAMD) and hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) identified three groups of farmers with different socio‐psychological profiles: the first group was characterized by minimal knowledge, negative attitudes towards biosecurity, little social pressure and a low level of conscientiousness. The second group was characterized by more extensive experience in poultry production, higher stress and social pressure. The third group was characterized by less experience in poultry production, better knowledge and positive attitudes towards biosecurity, increased self‐confidence and orientation towards action. The first group had a significantly lower adoption of biosecurity measures than the two other groups. A better understanding of the factors involved in farmers' decision‐making could improve the efficiency of interventions aiming at improving and maintaining the level of on‐farm biosecurity in the duck industry.
