Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 249:126443. [PMID: 37604413 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023]
Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF) is a severe infectious disease caused by the classical swine fever virus (CSFV) that poses significant challenges to the swine industry. α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (OGDH), the first rate-limiting enzyme of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, catalyzes α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) to succinyl-CoA, playing a crucial role in glycometabolism. Our previous studies showed that CSFV disrupts the TCA cycle, resulting in α-KG accumulation. However, the interplay between CSFV and OGDH remains unclear. In this study, we found that CSFV significantly reduces OGDH protein levels and promotes α-KG secretion through OGDH in PK-15 cells. Furthermore, we observed CSFV C protein interacts with OGDH and revealed that CSFV utilizes NDP52/NBR1 to target OGDH protein degradation in the autophagy-lysosome pathway. We also unveiled that OGDH overexpression inhibits CSFV proliferation, whereas OGDH knockdown increases CSFV proliferation. Further investigation into the mechanisms of OGDH on CSFV replication revealed that OGDH regulates the AMPK-mTOR-autophagy pathway. Additionally, using the autophagy agonist/inhibitor, rapamycin/3-MA, we observed that OGDH modulates autophagy to regulate the IRF3-IFN-β network and CSFV replication. These findings shed light on the role of OGDH in CSFV infection and host metabolism, promoting the development of innovative strategies for combating CSFV and other viral infections via targeting metabolic pathways.

Effects of Hericium erinaceus polysaccharide on immunity and apoptosis of the main immune organs in Muscovy duck reovirus-infected ducklings. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 171:448-456. [PMID: 33421472 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.12.222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2020] [Revised: 12/29/2020] [Accepted: 12/31/2020] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
To investigate the effects of Hericium erinaceus polysaccharide (HEP) on immunity in Muscovy duck reovirus (MDRV)-infected ducklings and explore its mechanism of action, an MDRV contact-infection model was established. Then, we investigated the influence of HEP on morphology of main immune organs in MDRV-infected ducklings by HE staining, while antioxidant capacity (T-AOC, MDA), serum protein levels (TP, ALB, GLO), complement levels (C3, C4) and antibody levels (IgA, IgM, IgG) were detected. Apoptotic indexes (apoptosisi rate and FAS-L) were also quantified by TUNEL method and immunohistochemical staining. Meanwhile, FADD and CytC (apoptosis-related genes), were tested by quantitative RT-PCR. Results showed that HEP could reduce the injuries of immune organs caused by MDRV. Additionally, HEP markedly diminished MDA (p < 0.01), while significantly increased T-AOC, TP, ALB, GLO, C3, C4, IgA, IgM and IgG (p < 0.01 or p < 0.05). Then, HEP shifted apoptosis time to an early MDRV-infected stage and reduced apoptosis at later MDRV-infected stage. This was associated with changes of FADD and CytC. Collectively, our data suggested that HEP could reduce the immunesuppression by many ways, such as decreasing organs' injuries, improving antioxidant capacity, serum proteins levels, antibody levels and complement levels, while diminish the apoptosis by lowering the FADD and CytC.

Abstract
Duck reovirus (DRV) is a fatal member of the genus Orthoreovirus in the family Reoviridae. The disease caused by DRV leads to huge economic losses to the duck industry. Post-translational modification is an efficient strategy to enhance the immune responses to virus infection. However, the roles of protein phosphorylation in the responses of ducklings to Classic/Novel DRV (C/NDRV) infections are largely unknown. Using a high-resolution LC–MS/MS integrated to highly sensitive immune-affinity antibody method, phosphoproteomes of Cairna moschata spleen tissues under the C/NDRV infections were analyzed, producing a total of 8,504 phosphorylation sites on 2,853 proteins. After normalization with proteomic data, 392 sites on 288 proteins and 484 sites on 342 proteins were significantly changed under the C/NDRV infections, respectively. To characterize the differentially phosphorylated proteins (DPPs), a systematic bioinformatics analyses including Gene Ontology annotation, domain annotation, subcellular localization, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway annotation were performed. Two important serine protease system-related proteins, coagulation factor X and fibrinogen α-chain, were identified as phosphorylated proteins, suggesting an involvement of blood coagulation under the C/NDRV infections. Furthermore, 16 proteins involving the intracellular signaling pathways of pattern-recognition receptors were identified as phosphorylated proteins. Changes in the phosphorylation levels of MyD88, NF-κB, RIP1, MDA5 and IRF7 suggested a crucial role of protein phosphorylation in host immune responses of C. moschata. Our study provides new insights into the responses of ducklings to the C/NDRV infections at PTM level.

Abstract
Serine incorporator 5 (SERINC5), a multipass transmembrane protein, protects cells from viral infections. The mechanism by which SERINC5 protects against classical swine fever virus (CSFV) infection is unknown. In this study, overexpression of SERINC5 in PK-15 and 3D4/2 cells significantly inhibited the growth of CSFV, whereas SERINC5 silencing enhanced CSFV growth. Additionally, CSFV infection reduced SERINC5 production in cells and tissues. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used to identify and analyze protein and peptide molecules that potentially interact with SERINC5. A total of 33 cellular protein candidates were identified. Next, SERINC5 was shown to interact with melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) by yeast two-hybrid, protein co-localization and co-immunoprecipitation assays. Furthermore, SERINC5 enhanced MDA5-mediated type I interferon (IFN) signaling in a dose-dependent manner. Our results suggest that the anti-CSFV effect of SERINC5 is dependent on the activation of the type I IFN, which may function along with MDA5. The inhibitory effect of SERINC5 on CSFV was disappeared when the endogenous expression of MDA5 was silenced using siRNA, suggesting that SERINC5 exerts an anti-CSFV effect in an MDA5-dependent manner. Our study demonstrated a novel link between SERINC5 and MDA5 in the inhibition of CSFV replication via the type I IFN signaling pathway.

Abstract
Zinc finger CCCH-type antiviral protein 1 (ZC3HAV1) is a host antiviral factor that can repress translation and promote degradation of specific viral mRNAs. In this study, we found that expression of ZC3HAV1 was significantly induced by infection with influenza A virus (IAV) and Sendai virus (Sev). It was shown that deficiency of IFNAR resulted in a dramatic decrease in the virus-induced expression of ZC3HAV1. Furthermore, transfection with poly(I:C) and treatment with interferon β (IFN-β) induced the ZC3HAV1 expression. Interference with the endogenous expression of ZC3HAV1 enhanced the replication of influenza virus by impairing the production of IFN-β and MxA, following the infection of influenza virus. In contrast, ectopic expression of ZC3HAV1 significantly restricted the replication of influenza virus by increasing the IFN-β expression. In addition, ZC3HAV1 also promoted the induction of tumor necrosis factor and interleukin 6. These results suggest that ZC3HAV1 is induced by IFN-β/IFNAR signaling during IAV and Sev infection and involved in positive regulation of IFN-dependent innate antiviral response.

Abstract
The peptide neuromedin B (NMB) and its receptor (NMBR) represent a system (NMB/NMBR) of neuromodulation. Here, it was demonstrated that the expression of NMBR in cells or murine lung tissues was clearly upregulated in response to H1N1/PR8 influenza A virus infection. Furthermore, the in vitro and in vivo activities of NMB/NMBR during PR8 infection were investigated. It was observed that A549 cells lacking endogenous NMBR were more susceptible to virus infection than control cells, as evidenced by the increased virus production in the cells. Interestingly, a significant decrease in IFN-α and increased IL-6 expression were observed in these cells. The role of this system in innate immunity against PR8 infection was probed by treating mice with NMB. The NMB-treated mice were less susceptible to virus challenge, as evidenced by increased survival, increased body weight, and decreased viral NP expression compared with the control animals. Additionally, the results showed that exogenous NMB not only enhanced IFN-α expression but also appeared to inhibit the expression of NP and IL-6 in PR8-infected cells and animals. As expected, opposing effects were observed in the NMBR antagonist-treated cells and mice, which further confirmed the effects of NMB. Together, these data suggest that NMB/NMBR may be an important component of the host defence against influenza A virus infection. Thus, these proteins may serve as promising candidates for the development of novel antiviral drugs.

Vet Microbiol 2018; 228:234-245.

Abstract
In the present study, the mechanisms underlying Muscovy duck reovirus (MDRV) p10.8 protein-induced ER stress and apoptosis in DF-1 cells and Muscovy duckling hepatic tissues were explored. On the fifth day post-infection, an increase in the mRNA levels of binding immunoglobulin protein (Bip) and X-box binding protein (XBP1), activation of XBP1/s, and an increase in percentage of apoptotic cells were observed in Muscovy duckling livers. The use of ER stress inducer Tunicamycin and ER stress inhibitor Tauroursodeoxycholic acid demonstrated that MDRV induces apoptosis via ER stress, leading to apoptosis. The use of Tunicamycin increased viral protein synthesis while Tauroursodeoxycholic acid reduced viral protein synthesis, suggesting that MDRV induces ER stress benefiting virus replication. The MDRV p10.8 is the major protein to induce ER stress and apoptosis. We found that p10.8 promotes the conversion of XBP1/u to XBP1/s and expands ER diameter, and increases the percentages of apoptotic cells in DF-1 and duckling liver tissues. To investigate the mechanism underlying the MDRV p10.8-induced ER stress and apoptosis, Western blot, siRNA, and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays were performed. We found that the MDRV p10.8 protein up-regulates Bip, p-IRE1, XBP1s, and cleaved-caspase 3. Co-IP results reveal that the MDRV p10.8 protein disassociates the Bip/IRE1 complex. Inhibition of IRE1 by 4-methyl umbelliferone 8-carbaldehyde (4u8c) dramatically reversed the MDRV p10.8-modulated increase in levels of XBP1s and cleaved-caspase 3. Knockdown of XBP1 by siRNA reversed the increased level of p10.8-modulated cleaved-caspase 3. The present study provides mechanistic insights into the MDRV p10.8 protein induces ER stress, resulting in apoptosis via the Bip/IRE1/XBP1 pathway in DF-1 cells and duckling livers.

Abstract
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) commonly infects the lymphatic tissues and immune cells of pigs and could cause a lethal disease in the animals. The process and release of cytokines like type III interferons (IFNs) is one of the important responses of the host innate immunity to viral infection. However, little information is available about type III IFN response to the CSFV infection. In this study, we investigated the expression of type III IFNs including interleukin-28B (IL-28B) and IL-29 in PK-15 cells and pigs following CSFV infection. We found that infection with CSFV was able to induce expression of IL-28B and IL-29 in PK-15 cells, although the increased levels of type III IFNs were limited. Importantly, up-regulation of IL-28B and IL-29 was further observed in CSFV infected animal tissues. The production of IL-28B and IL-29 was reduced by the inactivation of NF-κB in cells, indicating that activated NF-κB is required for efficient expression of type III IFNs induced by CSFV. Moreover, our experiments demonstrated that infection with CSFV strongly stimulated the downstream of STAT1 signaling in vitro and in vivo. In addition, several critical IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) including IFITM3, OASL, OAS1, and ISG15 were significantly upregulated at both mRNA and protein levels in PK-15 cells and infected pigs. Together, these results reveal that CSFV can trigger host antiviral immune responses including production of type III IFNs, activation of STAT1, and induction of some critical ISGs.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to clarify the molecular mechanism underlying the fatty degeneration of livers infected with Muscovy duck reovirus (MDRV), which produces obvious white necrotic foci in the liver. Transcriptome data for MDRV-infected Muscovy duck livers and control livers were sequenced, assembled, and annotated with Illumina® HiSeq 2000. The differentially expressed genes were screened and their functions were analysed. We also determined and confirmed the molecular mechanism of the hepatic fat metabolism disorder caused by MDRV infection. The expression of 4190 genes was higher in the infected livers than in the control livers, and the expression of 1113 genes was reduced. A Gene Ontology analysis showed that these genes were involved in 48 biological functions, and were significantly enriched in 237 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways. The free fatty acid content was significantly higher in the livers of infected Muscovy ducks than in the control livers (P < 0.01). The KEGG analysis showed that MDRV infection inhibited the cholesterol efflux from hepatic cells and reduced the expression of key enzymes involved in fatty acid degradation (scavenger receptor class b type 1, ABCG8, and APOA4), leading to the accumulation of fatty acids and cholesterol in the liver cells. In this study, we have identified the genes differentially expressed in livers infected by MDRV, from which we inferred the genes associated with lipodystrophia, and elucidated the molecular mechanism of the hepatic steatosis induced by MDRV.

Alpha/beta interferon receptor deficiency in mice significantly enhances susceptibility of the animals to pseudorabies virus infection. Vet Microbiol 2017; 203:234-244. [PMID: 28619150 DOI: 10.1016/j.vetmic.2017.03.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2016] [Revised: 03/10/2017] [Accepted: 03/16/2017] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Pseudorabies virus, one of the neurotropic viruses, can infect numerous mammals. In particular, pseudorabies virus infection of swine occurs worldwide, and is a major threat to swine industry. However, the mechanism underlying the interaction between pseudorabies virus and host innate immune system is not fully understood. Here, we investigated the involvement of interferon α/β (IFN-α/β) receptor (IFNAR) in the pathogenesis of pseudorabies virus in a mouse model. The results showed that IFNAR-deficient (IFNAR-/-) mice were highly susceptible to the virus infection, as evidenced by markedly reduced survival rate of infected animals and increased viral replication. The expression of IFN-α/β and relevant interferon-stimulated genes in IFNAR-/- mice was significantly lower than that in wild-type (WT) littermates after the viral infection. Moreover, in response to the virus challenge, IFNAR-/- mice displayed elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines including interleukin 6 (IL-6) and IL-1β, and IFNAR-/- cells showed increased phosphorylation of STAT3. Collectively, these data reveal that the IFNAR-/- mice are more sensitive to pseudorabies virus infection than WT animals, and excessive IL-6/STAT3 response in IFNAR-/- mice may contribute to the pathogenesis. Our findings suggest that type I IFNs/IFNAR-dependent homeostatic control of the innate immunity is required for host defense against pseudorabies virus infection.

Avian Tembusu virus infection effectively triggers host innate immune response through MDA5 and TLR3-dependent signaling pathways. Vet Res 2016; 47:74. [PMID: 27449021 PMCID: PMC4957414 DOI: 10.1186/s13567-016-0358-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2015] [Accepted: 05/17/2016] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Avian Tembusu virus (ATMUV) is a newly emerged flavivirus that belongs to the Ntaya virus group. ATMUV is a highly pathogenic virus causing significant economic loss to the Chinese poultry industry. However, little is known about the role of host innate immune mechanism in defending against ATMUV infection. In this study, we found that ATMUV infection significantly up-regulated the expression of type I and type III interferons (IFN) and some critical IFN-stimulated genes (ISG) in vivo and in vitro. This innate immune response was induced by genomic RNA of ATMUV. Furthermore, we observed that ATMUV infection triggered IFN response mainly through MDA5 and TLR3-dependent signaling pathways. Strikingly, shRNA-based disruption of IPS-1, IRF3 or IRF7 expression significantly reduced the production of IFN in the 293T cell model. Moreover, NF-κB was shown to be activated in both chicken and human cells during the ATMUV infection. Inhibition of NF-κB signaling also resulted in a clear decrease in expression of IFN. Importantly, experiments revealed that treatment with IFN significantly impaired ATMUV replication in the chicken cell. Consistently, type I IFN also exhibited promising antiviral activity against ATMUV replication in the human cell. Together, these data indicate that ATMUV infection triggers host innate immune response through MDA5 and TLR3-dependent signaling that controls IFN production, and thereby induces an effective antiviral immunity.

Infection of goats with goatpox virus triggers host antiviral defense through activation of innate immune signaling. Res Vet Sci 2015; 104:40-9.

Abstract
Goatpox, caused by goatpox virus (GTPV), is one of the most serious infectious diseases associated with high morbidity and mortality in goats. However, little is known about involvement of host innate immunity during the GTPV infection. For this, goats were experimentally infected with GTPV. The results showed that GTPV infection significantly induced mRNA expression of type I interferon (IFN)-α and IFN-β in peripheral blood lymphocytes, spleen and lung. In addition, GTPV infection enhanced expression of several inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-18; and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Strikingly, infection with GTPV activated signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3), a critical cytokine signaling molecule. Interestingly, the virus infection induced expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)-1. Importantly, the infection resulted in an increased expression of some critical interferon-stimulated genes, such as interferon-induced transmembrane protein (IFITM) 1, IFITM3, interferon stimulated gene (ISG) 15 and ISG20. Furthermore, we found that infection with GTPV up-regulated expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR9. These results revealed that GTPV infection activated host innate immune signaling and thereby triggered antiviral innate immunity. The findings provide novel insights into complex mechanisms underlying GTPV-host interaction and pathogenesis of GTPV.
