The present study aimed to explore if bovine parvovirus (BPV) impacts beta interferon (IFN-β) production and to reveal further molecular mechanism of BPV immune escape.
The pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 recombinant plasmid was verified with both double-enzyme digestion and sequence. HEK 293 T cells were transfected with this recombinant protein and then infected with the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Expression levels of IFN-β mRNA were detected using qPCR.
The expression level of BPV VP1 mRNA in the pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 group was significantly higher than those of the untreated group (UT) and pCMV-Myc vector group. BPV virus copies in bovine turbinate (BT) cells of the BPV-VP1 group were raised (P < 0.05) with an increment of 5.8 × 10. Expression levels of IFN-β mRNA of the BPV VP1 group in HEK 293 T cells were decreased (P < 0.01). Following treatment of TBK1 and IRF3(5D), IFN-β expression levels in HEK 293 T cells were depressed. Additionally, expression levels of TBK1, IRF3(5D), MDA5, and MAVS were less than those of the flag empty vector, respectively.
pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 could heighten transcription levels of VP1 protein in BT cells, promote BPV proliferation, and ascend the production of IFN-β. Overexpression of pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP decreased IFN-β mRNA expression in HEK 293 T cells and inhibited IFN-β production induced by TBK1 and IRF3(5D). Furthermore, BPV VP1 obviously declined expression levels of TBK1, IRF3(5D), MDA5, and MAVS in the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) pathway. Our findings revealed a novel mechanism evolved by BPV VP1 to inhibit type I IFN production and provided a solid scientific basis into the immunosuppression of BPV.
本研究旨在探讨牛细小病毒(BPV)是否影响β干扰素(IFN-β)的产生,并揭示 BPV 免疫逃逸的进一步分子机制。
用双酶切和测序验证 pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 重组质粒。用该重组蛋白转染 HEK 293T 细胞,然后用水疱性口炎病毒(VSV)感染。用 qPCR 检测 IFN-β mRNA 的表达水平。
pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 组 BPV VP1 mRNA 的表达水平明显高于未处理组(UT)和 pCMV-Myc 载体组。BPV-VP1 组牛鼻甲(BT)细胞中的 BPV 病毒拷贝数增加(P<0.05),增加了 5.8×10。HEK 293T 细胞中 BPV VP1 组 IFN-β mRNA 的表达水平降低(P<0.01)。用 TBK1 和 IRF3(5D)处理后,HEK 293T 细胞中 IFN-β的表达水平降低。此外,TBK1、IRF3(5D)、MDA5 和 MAVS 的表达水平均低于空载 Flag 载体,分别。
pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP1 可提高 BT 细胞中 VP1 蛋白的转录水平,促进 BPV 增殖,增加 IFN-β的产生。pCMV-Myc-BPV-VP 的过表达降低了 HEK 293T 细胞中 IFN-βmRNA 的表达,并抑制了 TBK1 和 IRF3(5D)诱导的 IFN-β产生。此外,BPV VP1 明显降低了 RIG-I 样受体(RLR)通路中 TBK1、IRF3(5D)、MDA5 和 MAVS 的表达水平。我们的研究结果揭示了 BPV VP1 抑制 I 型 IFN 产生的新机制,并为 BPV 的免疫抑制提供了坚实的科学依据。
