Abstract This commentary highlighted the background, take-home messages, and impacts of our 2007 British Journal Nutrition paper entitled “Amino acids immune function”. In 2003–2004, there was an outbreak severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) caused by SARS coronavirus-1 (CoV-1) in Asian countries. By mid-2000’s, clinical experimental evidence indicated important roles for amino (AA) improving innate adaptive immunities humans animals. Based on long-standing interest AA metabolism nutritional immunology, we decided to critically analyze advances this field. Furthermore, proposed a unified mechanism responsible beneficial effects their products (including nitric oxide, glutathione, antibodies, cytokines) responses. We hoped that such integrated knowledge would be helpful designing AA-based methods (e.g., supplementation with arginine glutamine) prevent treat SARS-like infectious diseases future. Our laid framework subsequent studies quantify intestinal bacteria, determine functional cell-mediated humoral immunities, establish much-needed database composition foodstuffs. Unexpectedly, COVID-19 (caused SARS-CoV-2) emerged December 2019 has become one deadliest pandemics history. Notably, glutamine have now been exploited effectively relieve symptoms affected patients.

Due to the high mortality rate in chicks caused by pullorum disease (PD) and drawbacks of antibiotic resistance, poultry industry is increasingly interested using natural herbal antimicrobial agents as alternatives, with cinnamaldehyde (CA) being a focus due its multitarget synergistic effects. This study aimed evaluate effects oral administration CA on restoring intestinal physical integrity, microbial barrier, metabolism laboratory model Salmonella (S. pullorum) infection chicks. Thirty-six were divided into six groups. The S.P groups infected 5 × 108 CFU/mL, 0.5 mL S. pullorum, while CON group received an equal-volume saline injection. was treated 100 mg/kg CA, others phosphate buffer (PBS). Samples collected 24 h after last treatment. Intestinal integrity assessed H&E staining, ELISA used measure inflammatory factors.
