Abstract: The poultry red mite (Dermanyssus galli-nae, PRM) is a blood-sucking ectoparasite in chickens and is one of the most serious threats to poultry farms. Mass infestation with PRMs causes various health prob-lems in chickens, resulting in significant productivity reduction in the poultry industry. Infestation with hema-tophagous ectoparasites, such as ticks, induces host inflammatory and hemostatic reactions. On the other hand, several studies have reported that hematophagous ectoparasites secrete various immunosuppressants from their saliva to suppress host immune responses to main-tain blood sucking. Here, we examined the expression of cytokines in peripheral blood cells to investigate whether PRM infestation affects immunological states in chickens. In PRM-infested chickens, anti-inflammatory cytokines, IL-10 and TGF-b1, and immune checkpoint molecules, CTLA-4 and PD-1, were highly expressed compared to noninfested chickens. PRM-derived soluble mite extracts (SME) upregulated the gene expression of IL-10 in peripheral blood cells and HD-11 chicken macrophages. In addition, SME suppressed the expression of interferons and inflammatory cytokines in HD-11 chicken macro-phages. Moreover, SME induces the polarization of mac-rophages into anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Collectively, PRM infestation could affect host immune responses, especially suppress the inflammatory responses. Further studies are warranted to fully understand the influence of PRM infestation on host immunity.
