Abstract
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is a bacterial disease that harms the poultry industry worldwide, but its effect on Chinese Silkie has not been reported. Studies on whether there are differences in Silkie individual resistance to APEC and the regulatory role of spleen miRNAs lay the foundation for strategies against APEC. Therefore, 270 Silkie chickens were infected with the median lethal dose of an E. coli O1, O2, and O78 mixture. These chickens were divided into a susceptible group (Group S) and a recovery group (Group R) according to whether they survived 15 days postinfection (dpi). Moreover, 90 uninfected APEC Silkie served as controls (Group C). The splenic miRNA expression profile was examined to evaluate the role of miRNAs in the APEC infection response. Of the 270 Silkies infected with APEC, 144 were alive at 15 dpi. Cluster analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) of splenic miRNAs revealed that the four Group R replicates were clustered with the three Group C replicates and were far from the three Group S replicates. Differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs, especially gga-miR-146b-5p, play essential roles in immune and inflammatory responses to APEC. Functional enrichment analyses of DEmiRNAs suggested that suppression of immune system processes (biological processes) might contribute to susceptibility to APEC and that FoxO signaling pathways might be closely associated with the APEC infection response and postinfection repair. This study paves the way for screening anti-APEC Silkies and provides novel insights into the regulatory role of miRNAs in APEC infection.

Abstract
The duck hepatitis A virus type 1 (DHAV-1) causes rapid death in ducklings by triggering a severe cytokine storm. Pyroptosis is an inflammatory form of programmed cell death that is directly related to an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. Only a few studies have explored the mechanisms underlying pyroptosis in virus-infected avian cells. In this study, we established an avian infection model in vitro by infecting duck embryo fibroblasts (DEFs) with the virulent DHAV-1 LY0801 strain. DHAV-1 infection induced pyroptosis in the DEFs by activating gasdermin E (GSDME) protein via caspase-3-mediated cleavage. The genes encoding the different structural and non-structural DHAV-1 proteins were cloned into eukaryotic expression plasmids, and the 2A2 protein was identified as the key protein involved in pyroptosis. The HPLC-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) analysis established that DHAV-1 2A2 directly interacted with the mitochondrial anti-viral signaling protein (MAVS) both intracellularly and in vitro. Furthermore, we got the results that N-terminal 1-130 aa of 2A2 was involved in the interaction with MAVS and the C-terminal TM domain of MAVS is necessary for the interaction with 2A2 by Co-IP analysis. To our knowledge, this is the first study to reveal that DHAV-1 protein interacts with host proteins to induce pyroptosis. Our findings provide new insights into the molecular pathogenesis of DHAV-1 infection, and a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of duck viral hepatitis.

Abstract
Duck hepatitis A virus 1 (DHAV-1) is one of the main contagious pathogens that causes rapid death of ducklings. To illuminate the potential of DHAV-1-infected underlying mechanisms, we analyzed the mRNA and microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles of duck embryonic hepatocytes (DEHs) in response to DHAV-1. We found 3410 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 142 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs) at 36 h after DHAV-1 infection. Additionally, DEGs and the target genes of miRNA expression were analyzed and enriched utilizing GO and KEGG, which may be crucial for immune responses, viral resistance, and mitophagy. For instance, the dysregulation of DDX58, DHX58, IRF7, IFIH1, STING1, TRAF3, CALCOCO2, OPTN, PINK1, and MFN2 in DHAV-1-infected DEHs was verified by RT-qPCR. Then, the association analysis of mRNAs and miRNAs was constructed utilizing the protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, and the expressions of main miRNAs were confirmed, including miR-132c-3p, miR-6542-3p, and novel-mir163. These findings reveal a synthetic characterization of the mRNA and miRNA in DHAV-1-infected DEHs and advance the understanding of molecular mechanism in DHAV-1 infection, which may provide a hint for the interactions of virus and host.

Virus Res 2023; 323:199003. [PMID: 36384170 PMCID: PMC10194143 DOI: 10.1016/j.virusres.2022.199003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/14/2022]
Abstract
Diseases caused by novel duck reovirus (NDRV) have brought considerable economic losses to the poultry industry. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have an impact on virus replication and antiviral immunity. However, the miRNA profile upon NDRV infection in duck embryo fibroblasts (DEFs) remains to be discovered. In this study, small RNA (sRNA) sequencing was performed to decipher the cellular miRNA response to NDRV infection. Based on 26 differentially expressed miRNAs (19 upregulated and 7 downregulated miRNAs) obtained from sequencing data and their target genes predicted by software, GO and KEGG analyses were performed to elucidate the functions of miRNAs in NDRV invasion, replication, and virus spread. "FoxO signaling pathway", "autophagy", and "Toll-like receptor signaling pathway" might participate in NDRV replication as revealed by KEGG enrichment analysis. The miR-155-1 sequence was found to be identical to rno-miR-155-5p and was sharply increased with the progression of NDRV infection. Moreover, NDRV-induced miR-155-1 could act as a positive factor for virus replication in DEFs, which inhibited type I interferon (IFN-I) production. Luciferase assay confirmed that miR-155-1 disturbed the abundance of suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) 5 by targeting 3'-UTR. SOCS5, which is linked to increased IRF7 expression, restricts IFN expression and promotes NDRV replication in DEFs. Therefore, this study proposed that miR-155-1 was used by NDRV to restrict SOCS5 expression, attenuating the production of IFN-I and creating a favorable environment for virus replication.

Abstract
Canine distemper (CD) caused by canine distemper virus (CDV) is one of the major infectious diseases in minks, bringing serious economic losses to the mink breeding industry. By an integrated analysis of microRNA (miRNA)-messenger RNA (mRNA), the present study analyzed the changes in the mink transcriptome upon CDV infection in mink lung epithelial cells (Mv. l. Lu cells) for the first time. A total of 4,734 differentially expressed mRNAs (2,691 upregulated and 2,043 downregulated) with |log2(FoldChange) |>1 and P-adj<0.05 and 181 differentially expressed miRNAs (152 upregulated and 29 downregulated) with |log2(FoldChange) |>2 and P-adj<0.05 were identified. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment indicated that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were associated with various biological processes and molecular function, such as response to stimulus, cell communication, signaling, cytokine activity, transmembrane signaling receptor activity and signaling receptor activity. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis of the combination of miRNA and mRNA was done for immune and inflammatory responses, such as Janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator (STAT) signaling pathway and nuclear factor (NF)-kappa B signaling pathway. The enrichment analysis of target mRNA of differentially expressed miRNA revealed that mir-140-5p and mir-378-12 targeted corresponding genes to regulate NF-kappa B signaling pathway. JAK-STAT signaling pathway could be modulated by mir-425-2, mir-139-4, mir-140-6, mir-145-3, mir-140-5p and mir-204-2. This study compared the influence of miRNA-mRNA expression in Mv. l. Lu cells before and after CDV infection by integrated analysis of miRNA-mRNA and analyzed the complex network interaction between virus and host cells. The results can help understand the molecular mechanism of the natural immune response induced by CDV infection in host cells.
