Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) caused by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) causes considerable economic losses to the global swine industry every year and seriously hinders the healthy development of this industry. Although tremendous efforts have been made over the past 30 years toward the development of prevention and control strategies against PRRSV infection, to date, treatments with proven efficacy have yet to be available due to our incomplete understanding of the molecular basis and complexity of the infection machinery. This review systematically discusses recent advances in the research and development of anti-PRRSV therapies targeting different stages of the viral life cycle. Furthermore, this review puts forward novel intervention targets and research approaches based on our in-depth exploration of virus-host interactions and the latest biological technologies, which have the potential to complement or transform current anti-PRRSV strategies and become breakthrough points for the control of PRRS in the future.

Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is one of the most economically devastating infectious diseases of pigs globally. The pathogen, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), is an enveloped positive-stranded RNA virus, which is considered to be the key triggers for the activation of effective innate immunity through pattern recognition receptor (PRR)-dependent signaling pathways. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs), C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), NOD-like receptors (NLRs) and Cytoplasmic DNA receptors (CDRs) are used as PRRs to identify distinct but overlapping microbial components. The innate immune system has evolved to recognize RNA or DNA molecules from microbes through pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and to induce defense response against infections, including the production of type I interferon (IFN-I) and inflammatory cytokines. However, PRRSV is capable of continuous evolution through gene mutation and recombination to evade host immune defenses and exploit host cell mechanisms to synthesize and transport its components, thereby facilitating successful infection and replication. This review presents the research progress made in recent years in the study of these PRRs and their associated adapters during PRRSV infection.

J Virol 2024; 98:e0068624. [PMID: 38888343 PMCID: PMC11264591 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00686-24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Nervous necrosis virus (NNV), an aquatic RNA virus belonging to Betanodavirus, infects a variety of marine and freshwater fishes, leading to massive mortality of cultured larvae and juveniles and substantial economic losses. The enzyme cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate synthase (cGAS) is widely recognized as a central component in the innate immune response to cytosolic DNA derived from different pathogens. However, little is known about the response of cGAS to aquatic RNA viruses. This study found that Epinephelus coioides cGAS (EccGAS) overexpression inhibited NNV replication, whereas EccGAS silencing promoted NNV replication. The anti-NNV activity of EccGAS was involved in interferon (IFN) signaling activation including tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor family member-associated NF-kappa-B activator-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) phosphorylation, interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) nuclear translocation, and the subsequent induction of IFNc and ISGs. Interestingly, NNV employed its capsid protein (CP) or Protein A (ProA) to negatively or positively modulate EccGAS-mediated IFN signaling by simultaneously targeting EccGAS. CP interacted with EccGAS via the arm-P, S-P, and SD structural domains and promoted its polyubiquitination with K48 and K63 linkages in an EcUBE3C (the ubiquitin ligase)-dependent manner, ultimately leading to EccGAS degradation. Conversely, ProA bound to EccGAS and inhibited its ubiquitination and degradation. In regulating EccGAS protein content, CP's inhibitory action was more pronounced than ProA's protective effect, allowing successful NNV replication. These novel findings suggest that NNV CP and ProA dynamically modulate the EccGAS-mediated IFN signaling pathway to facilitate the immune escape of NNV. Our findings shed light on a novel mechanism of virus-host interaction and provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of NNV.IMPORTANCEAs a well-known DNA sensor, cGAS is a pivotal component in innate anti-viral immunity to anti-DNA viruses. Although there is growing evidence regarding the function of cGAS in the resistance to RNA viruses, the mechanisms by which cGAS participates in RNA virus-induced immune responses in fish and how aquatic viruses evade cGAS-mediated immune surveillance remain elusive. Here, we investigated the detailed mechanism by which EccGAS positively regulates the anti-NNV response. Furthermore, NNV CP and ProA interacted with EccGAS, regulating its protein levels through ubiquitin-proteasome pathways, to dynamically modulate the EccGAS-mediated IFN signaling pathway and facilitate viral evasion. Notably, NNV CP was identified to promote the ubiquitination of EccGAS via ubiquitin ligase EcUBE3C. These findings unveil a novel strategy for aquatic RNA viruses to evade cGAS-mediated innate immunity, enhancing our understanding of virus-host interactions.

Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is a globally prevalent contagious disease caused by the positive-strand RNA PRRS virus (PRRSV), resulting in substantial economic losses in the swine industry. Modifying the CD163 SRCR5 domain, either through deletion or substitution, can eff1ectively confer resistance to PRRSV infection in pigs. However, large fragment modifications in pigs inevitably raise concerns about potential adverse effects on growth performance. Reducing the impact of genetic modifications on normal physiological functions is a promising direction for developing PRRSV-resistant pigs. In the current study, we identified a specific functional amino acid in CD163 that influences PRRSV proliferation. Viral infection experiments conducted on Marc145 and PK-15 CD163 cells illustrated that the mE535G or corresponding pE529G mutations markedly inhibited highly pathogenic PRRSV (HP-PRRSV) proliferation by preventing viral binding and entry. Furthermore, individual viral challenge tests revealed that pigs with the E529G mutation had viral loads two orders of magnitude lower than wild-type (WT) pigs, confirming effective resistance to HP-PRRSV. Examination of the physiological indicators and scavenger function of CD163 verified no significant differences between the WT and E529G pigs. These findings suggest that E529G pigs can be used for breeding PRRSV-resistant pigs, providing novel insights into controlling future PRRSV outbreaks.

Abstract
Domesticated animals have undergone significant changes in their behavior, morphology, and physiological functions during domestication. To identify the changes in gene expression associated with domestication, we collected the RNA-seq data of pigs, chickens, wild boars, and red junglefowl from public databases and performed a meta-analysis. Gene expression was quantified, and the expression ratio between domesticated animals and their wild ancestors (DW-ratio) was calculated. Genes were classified as "upregulated", "downregulated", or "unchanged" based on their DW-ratio, and the DW-score was calculated for each gene. Gene set enrichment analysis revealed that genes upregulated in pigs were related to defense from viral infection, whereas those upregulated in chickens were associated with aminoglycan and carbohydrate derivative catabolic processes. Genes commonly upregulated in pigs and chickens are involved in the immune response, olfactory learning, epigenetic regulation, cell division, and extracellular matrix. In contrast, genes upregulated in wild boar and red junglefowl are related to stress response, cell proliferation, cardiovascular function, neural regulation, and energy metabolism. These findings provide valuable insights into the genetic basis of the domestication process and highlight potential candidate genes for breeding applications.

Abstract
As obligate parasites, viruses have evolved multiple strategies to evade the host immune defense. Manipulation of the host proteasome system to degrade specific detrimental factors is a common viral countermeasure. To identify host proteins targeted for proteasomal degradation by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), we conducted a quantitative proteomics screen of PRRSV-infected Marc-145 cells under the treatment with proteasome inhibitor MG132. The data revealed that the expression levels of programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) were strongly downregulated by PRRSV and significantly rescued by MG132. Further investigation confirmed that PRRSV infection induced the translocation of PDCD4 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and the viral nonstructural protein 9 (Nsp9) promoted PDCD4 proteasomal degradation in the cytoplasm by activating the Akt-mTOR-S6K1 pathway. The C-terminal domain of Nsp9 was responsible for PDCD4 degradation. As for the role of PDCD4 during PRRSV infection, we demonstrated that PDCD4 knockdown favored viral replication, while its overexpression significantly attenuated replication, suggesting that PDCD4 acts as a restriction factor for PRRSV. Mechanistically, we discovered eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) was required for PRRSV. PDCD4 interacted with eIF4A through four sites (E249, D253, D414, and D418) within its two MA3 domains, disrupting eIF4A-mediated translation initiation in the 5'-untranslated region of PRRSV, thereby inhibiting PRRSV infection. Together, our study reveals the antiviral function of PDCD4 and the viral strategy to antagonize PDCD4. These results will contribute to our understanding of the immune evasion strategies employed by PRRSV and offer valuable insights for developing new antiviral targets.IMPORTANCEPorcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection results in major economic losses in the global swine industry and is difficult to control effectively. Here, using a quantitative proteomics screen, we identified programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) as a host protein targeted for proteasomal degradation by PRRSV. We demonstrated that PDCD4 restricts PRRSV replication by interacting with eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A, which is required for translation initiation in the viral 5'-untranslated region. Additionally, four sites within two MA3 domains of PDCD4 are identified to be responsible for its antiviral function. Conversely, PRRSV nonstructural protein 9 promotes PDCD4 proteasomal degradation in the cytoplasm by activating the Akt-mTOR-S6K1 pathway, thus weakening the anti-PRRSV function. Our work unveils PDCD4 as a previously unrecognized host restriction factor for PRRSV and reveals that PRRSV develops countermeasures to overcome PDCD4. This will provide new insights into virus-host interactions and the development of new antiviral targets.

Abstract
The epitranscriptomic modification m6A is a prevalent RNA modification that plays a crucial role in the regulation of various aspects of RNA metabolism. It has been found to be involved in a wide range of physiological processes and disease states. Of particular interest is the role of m6A machinery and modifications in viral infections, serving as an evolutionary marker for distinguishing between self and non-self entities. In this review article, we present a comprehensive overview of the epitranscriptomic modification m6A and its implications for the interplay between viruses and their host, focusing on immune responses and viral replication. We outline future research directions that highlight the role of m6A in viral nucleic acid recognition, initiation of antiviral immune responses, and modulation of antiviral signaling pathways. Additionally, we discuss the potential of m6A as a prognostic biomarker and a target for therapeutic interventions in viral infections.

Abstract
Macroautophagy/autophagy is a cellular degradation and recycling process that maintains the homeostasis of organisms. A growing number of studies have reported that autophagy participates in infection by a variety of viruses. Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) causes severe financial losses to the global swine industry. Although much research has shown that PRRSV triggers autophagy for its own benefits, the exact molecular mechanisms involved in PRRSV-triggered autophagy remain to be fully elucidated. In the current study, we demonstrated that PRRSV infection significantly induced Golgi apparatus (GA) fragmentation, which promoted autophagy to facilitate viral self-replication. Mechanistically, PRRSV nonstructural protein 2 was identified to interact with and degrade the Golgi reassembly and stacking protein 65 dependent on its papain-like cysteine protease 2 activity, resulting in GA fragmentation. Upon GA fragmentation, GA-resident Ras-like protein in brain 2 was disassociated from Golgi matrix protein 130 and subsequently bound to unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 (ULK1), which enhanced phosphorylation of ULK1 and promoted autophagy. Taken together, all these results expand the knowledge of PRRSV-triggered autophagy as well as PRRSV pathogenesis to support novel potential avenues for prevention and control of the virus. More importantly, these results provide the detailed mechanism of GA fragmentation-mediated autophagy, deepening the understanding of autophagic processes.IMPORTANCEPorcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection results in a serious swine disease affecting pig farming worldwide. Despite that numerous studies have shown that PRRSV triggers autophagy for its self-replication, how PRRSV induces autophagy is incompletely understood. Here, we identify that PRRSV Nsp2 degrades GRASP65 to induce GA fragmentation, which dissociates RAB2 from GM130 and activates RAB2-ULK1-mediated autophagy to enhance viral replication. This work expands our understanding of PRRSV-induced autophagy and PRRSV replication, which is beneficial for anti-viral drug development.

[PMID: 37951010 DOI: 10.1016/j.vetmic.2023.109907] [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: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/13/2023]
Abstract
Laboratory of Genetics and Physiology 2 (LGP2), along with Retinoic Acid Induced Gene-I (RIG-I) and Melanoma Differentiation Associated Gene 5, are members of the retinoic acid-inducible gene-I-like receptors (RLRs) in pattern recognition receptors, playing an important role in the host's innate immunity. Due to lacking a caspase activation and recruitment domain, LGP2 is controversially regarded as a positive or negative regulator in the antiviral response. This study aimed to explore how duck LGP2 (duLGP2) participates in duck innate immunity and its role in countering the duck Tembusu virus (DTMUV). In duck embryo fibroblast cells, the overexpression of duLGP2 significantly reduced the cell's antiviral capacity by inhibiting type I interferon (IFN) production and the expression of downstream IFN-stimulated genes. Conversely, duLGP2 knockdown had the opposite effect. For the first time, we introduced the LGP2 gene fragment into duck embryos using a lentiviral vector to ensure persistent expression and generated gene-edited ducks with LGP2 overexpression. We demonstrated that duLGP2 facilitates DTMUV replication in both in vitro and in vivo experiments, leading to robust inflammatory and antiviral responses. Interestingly, the repressive effects of duLGP2 on type I IFN production were only observed in the early stage of DTMUV infection, with type I IFN responses becoming enhanced as the viral load increased. These results indicate that duLGP2 acts as a negative regulator during the resting state and early stages of DTMUV infection. This study provides a theoretical basis for further research on duck RLRs and developing new anti-DTMUV drugs or vaccine adjuvants.

Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is one of the most important causative agents in the pig industry worldwide, causing reproductive failure in sows and respiratory problems in growing pigs. Glucose metabolism is a major pathway for energy production and interacts with many cellular processes, such as innate immunity response. It is unclear whether PRRSV infection can use the glucose metabolic pathway to generate immune escape in favor of viral replication. Here, we found that high glucose promotes PRRSV replication and glycolysis, and inhibits poly(I:C)-induced RLR signaling. Conversely, inhibition of the glycolysis pathway significantly promoted poly(I:C)-induced RLR signaling and inhibited PRRSV replication, suggesting that glycolysis promotes PRRSV replication by inhibiting interferon signaling. Furthermore, PRRSV promotes glycolysis to produce lactate, which acts as a key metabolite to promote viral replication by inhibiting RLR signaling by targeting MAVS. And the glycolytic inhibitors targeting HK2 and LDHA in glycolysis could inhibit PRRSV replication. Taken together, these findings suggested that PRRSV infection promotes glycolysis to produce lactate, which targets MAVS to inhibit RLR signaling and thus promote viral replication. Our findings provide an insight into the pathogenesis of PRRSV and offer a theoretical basis for further development of antiviral therapeutic targets.
