<p id="Par1">Single stranded ribonucleic acid (ssRNA) binds to toll-like receptor (TLR)7 leading to recruitment of immune cells and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which has been shown in mammals. In chickens, synthetic ssRNA analog, resiquimod, has been shown to elicit antiviral response against infectious bursal disease virus infection. The objective of this study was to determine the innate host responses activated by the pre-hatch <italic>in ovo</italic>
administration of resiquimod against infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) infection in chickens post-hatch.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Results</title>
<p id="Par2">First, we observed that <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of resiquimod at embryo day (ED) 18 increases macrophage recruitment in respiratory and gastrointestinal tissues of chicken day 1 post-hatch in addition to interleukin (IL)-1β in lungs. Second, we observed that <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of resiquimod reduces ILTV cloacal shedding at 7 days post-infection (dpi) when challenged at day 1 post-hatch coinciding with higher macrophage recruitment. In vitro, we found that resiquimod enhances production of nitric oxide (NO) and IL-1β and not type 1 interferon (IFN) activity in avian macrophages. Although, the antiviral response against ILTV is associated with the enhanced innate immune response, it is not dependent on any of the innate immune mediators observed as has been shown in vitro using avian macrophage.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Conclusion</title>
<p id="Par3">This study provides insights into the mechanisms of antiviral response mediated by resiquimod, particularly against ILTV infection in chicken.</p>

<abstract id="Abs1"><sec><title>Background</title>
<p id="Par1">Single stranded ribonucleic acid (ssRNA) binds to toll-like receptor (TLR)7 leading to recruitment of immune cells and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which has been shown in mammals. In chickens, synthetic ssRNA analog, resiquimod, has been shown to elicit antiviral response against infectious bursal disease virus infection. The objective of this study was to determine the innate host responses activated by the pre-hatch <italic>in ovo</italic>
administration of resiquimod against infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) infection in chickens post-hatch.</p>

treatment of resiquimod at embryo day (ED) 18 increases macrophage recruitment in respiratory and gastrointestinal tissues of chicken day 1 post-hatch in addition to interleukin (IL)-1β in lungs. Second, we observed that <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of resiquimod reduces ILTV cloacal shedding at 7 days post-infection (dpi) when challenged at day 1 post-hatch coinciding with higher macrophage recruitment. In vitro, we found that resiquimod enhances production of nitric oxide (NO) and IL-1β and not type 1 interferon (IFN) activity in avian macrophages. Although, the antiviral response against ILTV is associated with the enhanced innate immune response, it is not dependent on any of the innate immune mediators observed as has been shown in vitro using avian macrophage.</p>

<body><sec id="Sec1"><title>Background</title>
<p id="Par36">The innate immune system, which is known to elicit broader nonspecific protective host responses against invading pathogens, is equipped with a range of immune cells. One of the major immune cells involved in the recognition and the elimination of microbes such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi, are macrophages. Macrophages recognize these pathogens, through pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) including toll-like receptors (TLRs) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>
]. These TLRs are able to detect the presence of specific molecular patterns, known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>
] that are highly conserved amongst microbes.</p>
<p id="Par37">When a virus enters a host, viral PAMP-TLR interaction activates intracellular signaling cascades [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>
] leading to upregulation of gene transcription initiating innate immune responses, including antiviral cytokines such as type-1 interferons (IFNs), interleukin (IL)-1β and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>
]. The latter enzyme facilitates production of highly reactive and potent antiviral molecule, nitric oxide (NO), as a part of innate host defense against invading infectious agents [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>
].</p>
<p id="Par38">In chickens, the activation of different types of TLRs using synthetic ligands induces innate antiviral response. For example, <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of CpG DNA significantly induced the recruitment of macrophages in chicken lungs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>
]. This induction was associated with the inhibition of avian influenza virus replication in a NO dependent way. Similarly, in another study, the enhanced NO production in macrophages following treatment of the TLR4 ligand, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), led to an antiviral response against infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
]. Furthermore, <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of TLR2 ligand, lipotechoic acid (LTA), reduced ILTV infection in chickens which correlated with a significant upregulation of mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory mediators such as IL-1β and iNOS [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>
].</p>
<p id="Par39">Of the TLRs in birds, TLR7 is the only identified receptor that binds with viral single-stranded ribonucleic acid (ssRNA) or its synthetic analogs (such as resiquimod, imiquimod, gardiquimod and loxoribine) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>
]. In chickens, ssRNA can induce antibacterial effects against <italic>Salmonella Enteritidis</italic>
[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>
] and antiviral effects against very virulent infectious bursal disease virus infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>
], similarly in mice, pre-treatment with resiquimod cleared bacteria involved in sepsis [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>
]. Recently, a study demonstrated that synthetic ssRNA upregulates mRNA of pro-inflammatory mediators including IL-1β and iNOS in chicken in vivo [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref>
]. However, the antiviral response of TLR7 activation against ILTV infection in chicken is not known. Therefore, our objectives for this study were to determine 1) whether <italic>in ovo</italic>
treated synthetic ssRNA, resiquimod is capable of eliciting macrophage responses post-hatch, 2) whether activation of the TLR7 pathway stimulates antiviral activity against ILTV and 3) the antiviral mechanisms involved following activation of TLR7 pathway in chicken.</p>

<sec id="Sec3"><title>Animals</title>
<p id="Par40">The use of specific pathogen free (SPF) eggs, chickens, and embryos in all our experimental procedures were approved by the Health Science Animal Care Committee (HSACC). The SPF eggs were purchased from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA, Ottawa, ON, Canada) and incubated at 37.2 °C at 60% relative humidity for 18 days and then at 37.6 °C and 70% relative humidity for last 3 days of incubation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>
] in digital incubators (Rcom Pro 20 and 50, Kingsuromax 20 and Rcom MARU Deluxe max, Autoelex Co., Ltd., GimHae, GyeongNam, Korea). The eggs were candled at embryo day (ED) 11 in order to select fertile eggs for the experiments. The chickens were euthanized before sampling of tissues as has been approved by the institutional animal care committees. Briefly, the chickens were euthanized using overdose of isoflurane anesthesia followed by cervical dislocation before sampling of tissues post-hatch.</p>

<sec id="Sec4"><title>Virus and TLR ligand</title>
<p id="Par41">The ILTV used in the studies was purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (strain N-71851, ATCC, Manassas, Virginia, United States). Initially, the virus was propagated in embryonated chicken eggs at ED 9–11 by infecting them through the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) route and a plaque assay was performed using leghorn chicken hepatocellular carcinoma (LMH) cells (ATCC, Manassas, Virginia, United States) to determine the viral titer in the harvested allantoic fluid. The vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) encoded with green fluorescent proteins (GFP) was kindly provided by Dr. Markus Czub, University of Calgary.

<sec id="Sec27"><title>Discussion</title>
<p id="Par66">The findings of the study described here are three-fold. First, <italic>in ovo</italic>
treated resiquimod can elicit macrophage response in respiratory and intestinal tracts of chicken when the eggs are hatched in addition to IL-1β production in lungs. However, <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of embryonated eggs with resiquimod did not lead to decrease in ILTV shedding as demonstrated by oropharyngeal ILTV genome loads, although there was a significant decrease in cloacal ILTV shedding recorded only at 7 dpi. Second, resiquimod treatment of avian macrophages leads to antiviral response against ILTV in vitro. Third, we found that resiquimod induces NO and IL-1β production, but not type 1 IFN activity in vitro. The resiquimod-mediated antiviral response elicited against ILTV in avian macrophages is not dependent on any of the innate immune mediators observed.</p>
<p id="Par67">Increased recruitment of macrophages has been observed previously in chickens following <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of CpG DNA (TLR21 ligand) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>
] and LTA (TLR2 ligand) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>
]. In the current study, we discovered that <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of TLR7 ligand, synthetic ssRNA, increased recruitment of macrophages in respiratory and gastrointestinal systems. Macrophages are key immune cells involved in initiating innate antiviral response by several mechanisms. First, avian macrophages are capable of producing highly reactive antiviral molecules such as NO [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>
] and previously it has been reported NO mediated antiviral activity against number of avian viruses such as ILTV, reovirus and Marek’s disease virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR37">37</xref>
]. Second, avian macrophages can produce a number of cytokines such as type 1 IFNs and IL-1β [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR38">38</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR39">39</xref>
]. These cytokines can elicit antiviral responses. For example, type I IFNs are effective in reducing avian viruses such as birna virus, corona virus, herpes viruses and paramyxovirus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR40">40</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR44">44</xref>
]. Third, macrophages play a role as phagocytic cells reducing virus burden in the host [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR45">45</xref>
]. Fourth, as an antigen presenting cell, the macrophages play a vital role in activating the adaptive arm of the immune system by presenting antigens to helper T lymphocytes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR46">46</xref>
]. In the current study, we observed that avian macrophages are capable of producing NO and IL-1β following stimulation with resiquimod although further studies are required to elucidate whether resiquimod is involved in enhancing phagocytosis and antigen presentation increasing adaptive immune response against ILTV infection.</p>
<p id="Par68">It has been reported previously that many TLR ligands were able to induce protective host responses against ILTV, such as CpG DNA, LPS and LTA [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>
]. Although different types of TLR ligands were found to be effective against many viral infections, there is a paucity of literature on the antiviral effect of TLR7 ligand against avian viral infections. Previously, Annamalai et al reported that the TLR7 agonist, R848, induced protective antiviral response against infectious bursal disease virus infection in 3 weeks old chicken, associated with the upregulation of pro-inflammatory genes, such as IL-1β, IL-4, iNOS and IFNγ [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>
]. Similarly, Stewart et al demonstrated that the other TLR7 ligands, Poly-C and ioxoribine, inhibited low pathogenic H1N1 avian influenza virus replication in chickens and the antiviral response of ioxoribine was associated with the increased gene expression for IFNα, IFNβ and IFNλ from primary chicken splenocytes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR47">47</xref>
]. Our study was directed to demonstrate whether TLR7 ligand, resiquimod was able to elicit antiviral responses against ILTV infection when resiquimod treatment is done <italic>in ovo.</italic>
In agreement with previous studies using other TLR ligands against ILTV infection [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>
], we found that <italic>in ovo</italic>
treated resiquimod is capable of eliciting antiviral response against ILTV infection in terms of reducing cloacal virus shedding at 7 dpi. Although we observed that resiquimod was effective when treated <italic>in ovo</italic>
reducing ILTV shedding via cloacal route at 7 dpi, we did not observe a significant reduction in ILTV shedding at 4 dpi and via oropharyngeal route at 4 or 7 dpi. Previously, it has been reported in similar experiment setting that CpG DNA injected <italic>in ovo</italic>
reduces ILTV cloacal shedding at 4 dpi but not the oropharyngeal shedding [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR48">48</xref>
]. It is difficult to explain this discrepancy of ILTV shedding between cloacal and oropharyngeal routes. However, it may be potentially related to the differences in virus replication pattern between 4 dpi and 7 dpi, a differences in the antiviral mechanism induced from a different TLR ligand used [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR48">48</xref>
] and the differences in the immune response between gastrointestinal and respiratory systems [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR49">49</xref>
] such as intestinal immune tolerance [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR50">50</xref>
] and presence of antiviral surfactant proteins in the lungs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR51">51</xref>
]. Furthermore, we did not observed severe clinical manifestations following ILTV (strain N-71851) infection in this experiment as has been seen previously by our group [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR48">48</xref>
]. The lack of clinical manifestation except transient non-specific signs such as huddling together and droopy and ruffled feathers may be due to differences in the batch of the virus and slight reduction in ILTV titer during storage at − 80 °C.</p>
<p id="Par69">Furthermore, we observed that the culture supernatants originated from macrophages stimulated with resiquimod in vitro is capable of inhibiting ILTV replication. Although resiquimod was capable of inducing NO production in vitro, interestingly, we did not find the resiquimod-mediated induction of NO in vivo<italic>.</italic>
Furthermore, the resiquimod-mediated NO production is not eliciting antiviral response against ILTV. However, previously it has been shown that NO originated from LPS/ CpG DNA-mediated induction of avian macrophages is inhibitory against ILTV and low pathogenic avian influenza virus infections [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
]. Although, this discrepancy in antiviral response mediated by NO originated from various TLR pathways is difficult to explain, it is possible that the difference may be connected to the amount of NO production downstream of these TLR pathways. In the current study, the amount of NO produced following resiquimod induced macrophages was minimal (< 10 μM) compared to other TLR ligands we tested previously in similar experimental setting such as LPS (> 50 μM) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
] and CpG DNA (> 30 μM) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>
]. Overall, our current and previous findings suggest that antiviral response mediated by NO is dependent on the concentration of NO. However, one of the limitation in this study is that we did not find the exact level of NO that can decrease the viral replication and that 1400 W can inhibit this antiviral effect by including other TLR ligands such as LPS and CpG DNA at different concentrations.</p>
<p id="Par70">Type 1 IFNs are important antiviral cytokines produced downstream of TLR signaling involved in antiviral host response that has been demonstrated in a number of host-viral infection models [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR52">52</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR53">53</xref>
]. In mice, it has been reported that the activation of TLR7 increased production of type 1 IFNs (IFNα) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR54">54</xref>
]. In chickens, type 1 IFNs produced following TLR3 ligand, dsRNA has been shown to inhibit avian viruses such as avian paramyxovirus, avian influenza virus and Marek’s disease virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR55">55</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR57">57</xref>
]. However, we found that no significant induction of type 1 IFNs production following stimulation of avian macrophages with resiquimod. It is difficult to explain this discrepancy between different species and between different TLR ligands. However, it may be potentially related to the differences in the pathways that are activated, which requires further investigation.</p>
<p id="Par71">Previously, it has been shown that avian macrophages are a source of IL-1β mRNA following stimulation with TLR21 ligand, CpG DNA [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>
]. Our current data show that macrophages produce IL-1β in response to TLR7 ligand, resiquimod in vitro and in vivo in lungs. Direct and indirect IL-1β mediated antiviral responses have been observed in other host-virus infection models. Furthermore, it has been reported that IL-1β inhibits the replication of West Nile virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR58">58</xref>
], hepatitis B virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR59">59</xref>
], cytomegalovirus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR60">60</xref>
] and respiratory syncytial virus [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR61">61</xref>
]. However, our current data show that the antiviral response against ILTV infection is not dependent on IL-1β originated from avian macrophages in response to resiquimod. Whether this lack of antiviral responses against ILTV attributable to IL-1β is due to the amount of IL-1β produced following resiquimod treatment requires further investigation. This fact would have been clarified in our in vitro experiment if we had included recombinant IL-1β as a positive control. Although, our finding of resiquimod-induced antiviral response against ILTV is not dependent on individual innate immune mediators, it may be potentially due to the combined effect of NO and IL-1β or other antiviral cytokines not tested in this study such as IFNγ [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR62">62</xref>
].</p>
<p id="Par72">This study describes that the <italic>in ovo</italic>
administration of resiquimod stimulates the innate immune system as indicated by the expansion of macrophage numbers and increased production of innate antiviral molecules such as NO and IL-1β. Consequently, resiquimod treatment resulted in the reduced ILTV shedding via cloacal route that can minimize transmission potential of the disease<italic>.</italic>
The main implication of this observation is that this induction of immune response via <italic>in ovo</italic>
administration is desirable in the field situations in order to provide early innate immune response at the time of placing the day-old chickens in the barn against circulating environmental pathogens. Although we studied the mechanistic aspects of <italic>in ovo</italic>
resiquimod treatment against only ILTV infection, our finding of the mechanisms of induction of innate immunity following <italic>in ovo</italic>
treatment of resiquimod may be applicable against other respiratory viruses as well due to the non-specific nature of innate host responses which requires further investigation.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="Sec28"><title>Conclusions</title>
<p id="Par73">In conclusion, we have shown that the administration of TLR7 ligand, resiquimod prophylactically <italic>in ovo</italic>
reduces ILTV cloacal shedding (at 7 dpi) correlating with increased macrophage recruitment and IL-1β expression. In vitro, we found that although enhanced NO and IL-1β productions from avian macrophages are possible following resiquimod stimulation, antiviral response against ILTV is not dependent on individual mediators observed. It is possible that the cells other than macrophages are involved in vivo in eliciting IL-1β expression. Although our results provide insights into the mechanisms of antiviral response mediated by resiquimod against ILTV infection in chickens, further investigations are required to identify further cells and mediators involved in enhanced antiviral response against ILTV infection following administration of resiquimod <italic>in ovo</italic>
