Abstract
Fowl adenovirus serotype 4 (FAdV-4) infections result in substantial economic losses in the poultry industry. Recent findings have revealed that FAdV-4 significantly suppresses the host immune response upon infection; however, the specific viral and host factors contributing to this immunomodulatory activity remain poorly characterized. Moreover, diverse cell types exhibit differential immune responses to FAdV-4 infection. To elucidate cell-specific host responses, we performed transcriptomic analysis of FAdV-4 infected leghorn male hepatocellular (LMH) and chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells. Although FAdV-4 replicated more efficiently in LMH cells, it provoked limited interferon-stimulated gene induction. In contrast, FAdV-4 infection triggered robust antiviral responses in CEF cells, including upregulation of cytosolic DNA sensing and interferon-stimulated genes. Knockdown of key cytosolic DNA sensing molecules enhanced FAdV-4 replication in LMH cells while reducing interferon-stimulated gene expression. Our findings reveal cell-specific virus-host interactions that provide insight into FAdV-4 pathogenesis while identifying factors that mediate antiviral immunity against FAdV-4.

Wang Y, Wang Q, Chen L, Li B. The lysosome-phagosome pathway mediates immune regulatory mechanisms in Mesocentrotus nudus against Vibrio coralliilyticus infection. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 139:108864. [PMID: 37277051 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.108864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2023] [Revised: 05/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
Sea urchins are a popular model species for studying invertebrate diseases. The immune regulatory mechanisms of the sea urchin Mesocentrotus nudus during pathogenic infection are currently unknown. This study aimed to reveal the potential molecular mechanisms of M. nudus during resistance to Vibrio coralliilyticus infection by integrative transcriptomic and proteomic analyses. Here, we identified a total of 135,868 unigenes and 4,351 proteins in the four infection periods of 0 h, 20 h, 60 h and 100 h in M. nudus. In the I20, I60 and I100 infection comparison groups, 10,861, 15,201 and 8,809 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 2,188, 2,386 and 2,516 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified, respectively. We performed an integrated comparative analysis of the transcriptome and proteome throughout the infection phase and found very a low correlation between transcriptome and proteome changes. KEGG pathway analysis revealed that most upregulated DEGs and DEPs were involved in immune strategies. Notably, "lysosome" and "phagosome" activated throughout the infection process, could be considered the two most important enrichment pathways at the mRNA and protein levels. The significant increase in phagocytosis of infected M. nudus coelomocytes further demonstrated that the lysosome-phagosome pathway played an important immunological role in M. nudus resistance to pathogenic infection. Key gene expression profiles and protein‒protein interaction analysis revealed that cathepsin family and V-ATPase family genes might be key bridges in the lysosome-phagosome pathway. In addition, the expression patterns of key immune genes were verified using qRT‒PCR, and the different expression trends of candidate genes reflected, to some extent, the regulatory mechanism of immune homeostasis mediated by the lysosome-phagosome pathway in M. nudus against pathogenic infection. This work will provide new insights into the immune regulatory mechanisms of sea urchins under pathogenic stress and help identify key potential genes/proteins for sea urchin immune responses.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Critical Factors For Survival After Adenovirus Serotype 4 Infection. Poult Sci 2022; 102:102150. [PMID: 36989855 PMCID: PMC10070941 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2022.102150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2022] [Revised: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Fowl adenovirus serotype-4 (FAdV-4) is highly lethal to poultry, making it one of the leading causes of economic losses in the poultry industry. However, a small proportion of poultry can survive after FAdV-4 infection. It is unclear whether there are genetic factors that protect chickens from FAdV-4 infection. Therefore, the livers from chickens uninfected with FAdV-4 (Normal), dead after FAdV-4 infection (Dead) or surviving after FAdV-4 infection (Survivor) were collected for RNA-seq, and 2,649 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Among these, many immune-related cytokines and chemokines were significantly upregulated in the Dead group compared with the Survivor group, which might indicate that death is related to an excessive inflammatory immune response (cytokine storm). Subsequently, the KEGG results for DEGs specifically expressed in each comparison group indicated that cell cycle and apoptosis-related DEGs were upregulated and metabolism-related DEGs were downregulated in the Dead group, which also validated the reliability of the samples. Furthermore, GO and KEGG results showed DEGs expressed in all three groups were mainly associated with cell cycle. Among them, BRCA1, CDK1, ODC1, and MCM3 were screened as factors that might influence FAdV-4 infection. The qPCR results demonstrated that these 4 factors were not only upregulated in the Dead group but also significantly upregulated in the LMH cells after 24 h infection by FAdV-4. Moreover, interfering with BRCA1, CDK1, ODC1, and MCM3 significantly attenuated viral replication of FAdV-4. And interfering of BRCA1, CDK1, and MCM3 had more substantial hindering effects. These results provided novel insights into the molecular changes following FAdV-4 infection but also shed light on potential factors driving the survival of FAdV-4 infection in chickens.

Abstract
Background Fowl Adenovirus serotype 4 (FAdV-4) infection causes severe inflammatory response leading to hepatitis-hydropericardium syndrome (HHS) in poultry. As an essential functional amino acid of poultry, arginine plays a critical role in anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative stress. Results In this study, the differential expression genes (DEGs) were screened by transcriptomic techniques, and the DEGs in gene networks of inflammatory response-induced by FAdV-4 in broiler’s liver were analyzed by Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) enrichment. The results showed that the cytokines pathway and JAK/STAT pathway were significantly enriched, in which the DEGs levels of IL-6, IL-1β, IFN-α, JAK and STAT were significantly up-regulated after FAdV-4 infection. It was further verified with real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time qPCR) and Western blotting (WB) in vitro and in vivo. The findings demonstrated that FAdV-4 induced inflammatory response and activated JAK2/STAT3 pathway. Furthermore, we investigated whether arginine could alleviate the liver inflammation induced by FAdV-4. After treatment with 1.92% arginine level diet to broilers or 300 μg/mL arginine culture medium to LMH cell line with FAdV-4 infection at the same time, we found that the mRNA levels of IL-6, IL-1β, IFN-α and the protein levels of p-JAK2, p-STAT3 were down-regulated, compared with FAdV-4 infection group. Furthermore, we confirmed that the inflammation induced by FAdV-4 was ameliorated by pre-treatment with JAK inhibitor AG490 in LMH cells, and it was further alleviated in LMH cells treatment with AG490 and ARG. Conclusions These above results provide new insight that arginine protects hepatocytes against inflammation induced by FAdV-4 through JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

High Phenotypic Variation between an In Vitro-Passaged Fowl Adenovirus Serotype 1 (FAdV-1) and Its Virulent Progenitor Strain despite Almost Complete Sequence Identity of the Whole Genomes. Viruses 2022; 14:v14020358.

Abstract
Adenoviral gizzard erosion is an emerging disease with negative impact on health and production of chickens. In this study, we compared in vitro and in vivo characteristics of a fowl adenovirus serotype 1 (FAdV-1), attenuated by 53 consecutive passages in primary chicken embryo liver (CEL) cell cultures (11/7127-AT), with the virulent strain (11/7127-VT). Whole genome analysis revealed near-complete sequence identity between the strains. However, a length polymorphism in a non-coding adenine repeat sequence (11/7127-AT: 11 instead of 9) immediately downstream of the hexon open reading frame was revealed. One-step growth kinetics showed delayed multiplication of 11/7127-AT together with significantly lower titers in cell culture (up to 4 log10 difference), indicating reduced replication efficiency in vitro. In vivo pathogenicity and immunogenicity were determined in day-old specific pathogen-free layer chicks inoculated orally with the respective viruses. In contrast to birds infected with 11/7127-VT, birds infected with 11/7127-AT did not exhibit body weight loss or severe pathological lesions in the gizzard. Virus detection rates, viral load in organs and virus excretion were significantly lower in birds inoculated with 11/7127-AT. Throughout the experimental period, these birds did not develop measurable neutralizing antibodies, prevalent in birds in response to 11/7127-VT infection. Differences in pathogenicity between the virulent FAdV-1 and the attenuated strain could not be correlated to prominently discriminate genomic features. We conclude that differential in vitro growth profiles indicate that attenuation is linked to modulation of viral replication during interaction of the virus with the host cells. Thus, hosts would be unable to prevent the rapid replication of virulent FAdV leading to severe tissue damage, a phenomenon broadly applicable to further FAdV serotypes, considering the substantial intra-serotype virulence differences of FAdVs and the variation of diseases.

Abstract
Fiber-1 protein (F1) is the structural protein of Fowl Adenovirus serotype 4 (FAdV-4), which could recondite the receptors of host cytomembrane. In this study, we firstly determined that F1 protein located in nucleus of LMH cells after infection with FAdV-4. We additionally revealed that F1 protein had a classic NLS, and the NLS was required for F1 nucleus entry, which was intently associated to the 26th Pro in NLS. The time rule result indicated that some F1 proteins firstly positioned in the nucleus 6 h posttranfection, and it entirely located in the nucleus 12 h posttranfection, then it ordinarily placed in cytoplasm 18 h posttranfection by means of microscopic fluorescence observation and Western Blotting. Then after transfection with pCI-neo-flag-F1 or infection with FAdV-4, the importin alpha 1 was once investigated whether or not it was required for F1 protein nucleus entry through immunofluorescence and/or Co-IP, results demonstrated that the F1 protein and importin alpha 1 co-located in the nucleus 6 h and 12 h posttranfection. The tiers of F1 protein vicinity in nucleus have been additionally investigated after knockdown expression or overexpression of importin alpha 1, and the results further revealed that importin alpha 1 used to be required for F1 protein nucleus entry. Finally, the function of F1 protein nucleus entry was investigated by qPCR, RT-PCR and Western Blotting, and the results revealed that F1 protein nucleus location was conducive to the proliferation of FAdV-4. In summary, we firstly reveal that the F1 protein of FAdV-4 locates in nucleus infected with FAdV-4, and confirm that importin alpha 1 binds to the NLS of F1 protein to nucleus localization, which promotes the proliferation of FAdV-4.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Potential Role of Long Noncoding RNAs in Regulating Fowl Adenovirus Serotype 4-Induced Apoptosis in Leghorn Male Hepatocellular Cells. Viruses 2021; 13:v13081623.

Abstract
Hepatitis-hydropericardium syndrome (HHS) is caused by fowl adenovirus serotype 4 (FAdV-4) and has resulted in considerable economic losses to the poultry industry globally. FAdV-4 elicits apoptosis in host cells. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as important regulatory RNAs with profound effects on various biological processes, including apoptosis. However, it remains unknown whether lncRNAs participate in FAdV-4-induced apoptosis. In this study, RNA sequencing was applied to determine the transcription of cellular lncRNA in leghorn male hepatocellular (LMH) cells infected with FAdV-4. Cellular RNA transcription analysis demonstrated that FAdV-4 infection elicited 1798 significantly differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs in infected LMH cells at 24 h post-infection (hpi) compared to mock control infection. In addition, 2873 DE mRNAs were also found. Target prediction and analyses revealed that 775 DE lncRNAs whose 671 target mRNAs were among the DE mRNAs were involved in several signaling pathways, including the AMPK signaling pathway, p53 signaling pathway and insulin signaling pathway. From these 775 DE lncRNAs, we identified 71 DE lncRNAs related to apoptosis based on their target gene functions. Subsequently, lncRNA 54128 was selected from the 71 identified DE lncRNAs, and its role in FAdV-4-induced apoptosis was verified. LncRNA 54128 interference significantly suppressed the rate of apoptosis, which was accompanied by reduced BMP4 transcription levels. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to analyze host lncRNA transcription during FAdV-4 infection. Our findings provide a better understanding of host responses to FAdV-4 infection and provide new directions for understanding the potential association between lncRNAs and FAdV-4 pathogenesis.

Abstract
Duck Tembusu virus (DTMUV) is a newly emerging pathogenic flavivirus that has caused huge economic losses to the duck industry in China since 2010. Moreover, the infection has spread rapidly, resulted in a potential public health concern. To improve our understanding of the host cellular responses to virus infection and the pathogenesis of DTMUV infection, we used RNA-Seq to detect the gene changes in DF-1 cells infected and mock-infected with DTMUV. A total of 663 differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in DTMUV-infected compared with mock-infected DF-1 cells at 24 h post-infection (hpi), among which 590 were up regulated and 73 were down regulated. Gene Ontology analysis indicated that the DEGs were mainly involved in cellular process, immune system processes, metabolic processes, and signal-organism process. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis showed that the DEGs were mainly involved in several signaling pathways such as Toll-like receptor signaling, Jak-STAT signaling, RIG-I-like receptor signaling and AGE-RAGE signaling pathway. Moreover, some selected DEGs were further confirmed by real-time PCR and the results were consistent with the sequencing data. To our knowledge, this study is the first to analyze the transcriptomic change in DF-1 cells following DTMUV infection. We believe that our research provides useful information in better understanding the host response to DTMUV infection and the inherent mechanism of DTMUV replication and pathogenicity.

Abstract
Fowl adenovirus serotype 4 (FAdV-4) is recognized as an economically important pathogen for the poultry industry worldwide. FAdV-4 infection causes a metabolic disturbance of hepatocytes, leading to hydropericardium-hepatitis syndrome (HHS) in poultry. However, the metabolic response of hepatocytes to FAdV-4 infection remains poorly investigated. Here, a tandem mass tag (TMT)-based approach was first used to quantitatively identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in leghorn male hepatoma (LMH) cells infected with the virulent FAdV-4 strain GY. We identified 666 DEPs associated with many biological processes and pathways, according to Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that three pathways, including metabolism-related signaling pathways, apoptosis, and autophagy responses, were enriched during FAdV-4 infection. Moreover, excessive induction of metabolism-related signaling pathways by FAdV-4 infection might be associated with HHS induced by the virus. Meanwhile, among the proteins in these pathways, RRM2, SAE1, AEN, and RAD50 were verified through western blotting to be markedly altered in FAdV-4-infected LMH cells. Notably, overexpression of SAE1 inhibited the replication of FAdV-4 in vitro, whereas silencing of SAE1 expression promoted the replication of the virus. Collectively, our findings show for the first time that SAE1 is a host cellular protein that plays roles in regulating the life cycle of FAdV-4.
