Abstract
Canine parainfluenza virus (CPIV) is a zoonotic virus that is widely distributed and is the main pathogen causing canine infectious respiratory disease (CIRD), also known as "kennel cough," in dogs. The CPIV-V protein is the only nonstructural protein of the virus and plays an important role in multiple stages of the virus life cycle by inhibiting apoptosis, altering the host cell cycle and interfering with the interferon response. In addition, studies have shown that the V protein has potential applications in the field of immunotherapy in oncolytic virus therapy or self-amplifying RNA vaccines. In this review, the biosynthesis, structural characteristics and functions of the CPIV-V protein are reviewed with an emphasis on how it facilitates viral immune escape and its potential applications in the field of immunotherapy. Therefore, this review provides a scientific basis for research into the CPIV-V protein and its potential applications.

[PMID: 37875555 PMCID: PMC10597997 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-42305-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Canine primary lung cancer with metastasis has a poor prognosis with no effective treatment. We previously generated a recombinant measles virus (MV) that lost binding affinity to a principal receptor, SLAM, to eliminate its virulence as a new cancer treatment strategy. The virus, rMV-SLAMblind, targets nectin-4, recently listed as a tumor marker, and exerts antitumor activity against nectin-4-positive canine mammary cancer and urinary bladder transitional cell carcinoma cells. However, the effectivity of rMV-SLAMblind for other types of canine cancers is still unknown. Here we evaluated the antitumor effect of rMV-SLAMblind to canine lung cancer. Nectin-4 is expressed on three canine lung cancer cell lines (CLAC, AZACL1, AZACL2) and rMV-SLAMblind was able to infect these cell lines. CLAC cells showed reduced cell viability after virus infection. In the CLAC xenograft nude mouse model, intratumoral administration of rMV-SLAMblind significantly suppressed tumor growth. In rMV-SLAMblind-treated mice, natural killer cells were activated, and Cxcl10 and Il12a levels were significantly increased in comparison with levels in the control group. In addition, the depletion of NK cells reduced the anti-tumor effect. To understand difference in efficacy among canine lung cancer cell lines, we compared virus growth and gene expression pattern after virus treatment in the three canine lung cancer cell lines; virus growth was highest in CLAC cells compared with the other cell lines and the induction of interferon (IFN)-beta and IFN-stimulated genes was at lower levels in CLAC cells. These results suggested that rMV-SLAMblind exhibits oncolytic effect against some canine lung cancer cells and the cellular response after the virus infection may influence its efficacy.
