Constitutively elevated levels of SOCS1 suppress innate responses in DF-1 immortalised chicken fibroblast cells.

ABSTRACT: The spontaneously immortalised DF-1 cell line is rapidly replacing its progenitor primary chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEFs) for studies on avian viruses such as avian influenza but no comprehensive study has as yet been reported comparing their innate immunity phenotypes. We conducted microarray analyses of DF-1 and CEFs, under both normal and stimulated conditions using chicken interferon-? (chIFN-?) and the attenuated infectious bursal disease virus vaccine strain PBG98. We found that DF-1 have an attenuated innate response compared to CEFs. Basal expression levels of Suppressor of Cytokine Signalling 1 (chSOCS1), a negative regulator of cytokine signalling in mammals, are 16-fold higher in DF-1 than in CEFs. The chSOCS1 "SOCS box" domain (which in mammals, interacts with an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex) is not essential for the inhibition of cytokine-induced JAK/STAT signalling activation in DF-1. Overexpression of SOCS1 in chIFN-?-stimulated DF-1 led to a relative decrease in expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs; MX1 and IFIT5) and increased viral yield in response to PBG98 infection. Conversely, knockdown of SOCS1 enhanced induction of ISGs and reduced viral yield in chIFN-?-stimulated DF-1. Consequently, SOCS1 reduces induction of the IFN signalling pathway in chicken cells and can potentiate virus replication.

Project description:Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), the causative agent of infectious bronchitis, is responsible for major economic losses in the poultry industry worldwide. While IBVs can usually be passaged in primary chicken embryonic fibroblasts (CEFs), most of the wild ones cannot adapt to passaged cell lines. In this study, the wild strain CK/CH/MY/2020 was used to infect primary CEF and immortalize DF-1 CEF cells. Results indicated that IBV was able to cause lesions and pass onto CEF, but not DF-1. Indeed, the virus could enter DF-1 cells and synthesize the associated structural gene but could not assemble into complete viral particles for release. Furthermore, transcriptome sequencing analysis showed significant differences in gene expression between CEF and DF-1 cells after viral infection, although the corresponding antiviral responses could be activated in both cell types. The biggest difference was in terms of the amino acid biosynthesis pathway and the cytokine receptor interaction pathway, which were significantly and specifically activated in CEF. This could actually explain why intact viruses can be assembled but not in DF-1. In addition, SLBP and P2RX7 affect the replication of IBV's structural genes to some extent. Overall, IBV can enter CEF and DF-1 cells, but the complex intracellular cytokine interactions affect the assembly and release of viral particles. The insight will be useful for the study of IBV through in vitro transmission and pathogenesis.ImportanceInfectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is responsible for high morbidity and mortality as well as substantial economic losses worldwide. Transcriptome sequencing of IBV-infected chicken embryonic fibroblast and DF-1 cells revealed that the virus elicits antiviral immunity in cells after viral infection, but IBV cannot activate DF-1 cells to produce sufficient amounts of viral structures to assemble into complete virions, which may be caused by the interactions between cytokines. The study of IBV cellular adaptations is important for vaccine development and investigation of the pathogenesis of IBV.
