Summary: This study investigates the immune responses and apoptosis effects in Nile tilapia head kidney macrophages upon exposure to two beta-Glucans at different doses. The results show that Paramylon elicits stronger immune responses than Laminarin, but with a dose-limiting effect. High-dose Paramylon induces apoptosis through activation of the intrinsic apoptosis pathway, while Laminarin triggers metabolic reprogramming to protect the cells from apoptosis.

Summary: Pneumocystis sp. is a fungal pathogen that can cause pneumonia in immunocompromised individuals. The number of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) cases worldwide has reached over 500,000, and it is considered a priority pathogen by the WHO. While the use of antiretroviral therapy has reduced PJP cases in developed countries, the cases in non-HIV individuals receiving immunosuppressive therapies have increased. The role of alveolar macrophages in the immune response to Pneumocystis is well-established, but there is also emerging evidence on the involvement of epithelial cells.

Summary: The human gastrointestinal tract contains a complex and dynamic microbial community, which has a significant impact on host physiology under normal and disease conditions. Diet plays a major role in shaping the gut microbiota throughout life. Intestinal microbial communities are vital for maintaining immune and metabolic homeostasis and protecting against pathogens. Certain inflammatory diseases and infections have been linked to alterations in gut bacterial composition. Beta-glucans, a type of glucose polymer, have various structures and can modulate the immune system by binding to specific receptors on immune cells. How these properties affect molecular mechanisms and biological functions is still not well understood. This review provides a comprehensive understanding of the structures and functions of beta-glucans in modulating the gut microbiota and immune system.

Summary: Prebiotics in aquaculture are composed of complex carbohydrate molecules that are metabolized by microbial communities in the host gut. The sources and processing of prebiotics vary between species and types, making it difficult to determine how they work and the host responses. Advances in high-throughput technologies are helping to understand the mechanisms and methods of action of prebiotics.

Summary: Beta-glucans are biological response modifiers which may vary in structure and activity based on different sources. The hot water extraction method allows for obtaining high molecular weight beta-glucans without altering their structure, and analysis by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy is crucial for studying the preserved structure of these polysaccharides.

Summary: The study investigated the local immune response of goat kids infected with Teladorsagia circumcincta, revealing a complex Th2 type immune response characterized by effector cell infiltration in abomasal tissues and specific antibodies development. Cellular immune responses were observed from 1 week post-infection onwards, with an increase in antigen-presenting cells and various lymphocyte subsets in the gastric mucosa. The study also found negative associations between the number of immune cells and parameters related to parasite fecundity, particularly evident at 8 weeks post-infection.

Summary: Beta-glucans can activate the animal innate immune system and induce stimulatory effects. When administered orally to Apis mellifera workers, beta-glucans did not affect survival rate but increased phenoloxidase activity. The inclusion of beta-glucans in a honey-based diet appeared to enhance phenoloxidase activity in healthy bees. Further research on beta-glucans metabolism in bees and the molecular mechanism of phenoloxidase activation by beta-glucans is needed.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of Debaryomyces hansenii CBS 8339 on innate immune responses in mice. The results showed that oral delivery of D. hansenii for 7 days enhanced phagocytosis, respiratory burst activity, and nitric oxide production in mice before and after bacterial challenge. It also upregulated the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines on day 7, but downregulated them on day 15. Furthermore, D. hansenii increased serum IgG and IgA titers in mice. Overall, short-term oral delivery of D. hansenii improved immune innate response in mice.

Summary: Crosslinking affects the mechanical behavior and tissue metabolism of collagen-based tissues. Aging and diabetes alter the crosslinking type and density, thus changing tissue properties. High-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking and advanced-glycation end-products result in uniform deformation under daily activity, while low-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking does not. High-connectivity model displays more sliding, while AGEs induce instability in structures near the binding sites.
