Analysis of long non-coding RNAs in neonatal piglets at different stages of porcine deltacoronavirus infection.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:PDCoV (Porcine Deltacoronavirus) is a novel porcine coronavirus that causes intestinal necrosis of piglets, thinning of the intestinal wall and severe villus atrophy in the small intestine. PDCoV is a highly contagious infectious disease characterized by diarrhea, dehydration and vomiting. It has been reported that lncRNA has a significant effect on viral replication and increased or decreased virulence. At present, there is almost no research on lncRNA related to PDCoV infection. With the development of the research, a large number of lncRNAs related to PDCoV infection have been discovered. Identifying the role of these lncRNAs in the infection process facilitates the screening of diagnostically significant biomarkers. RESULTS:Using high throughput sequencing to screen differentially expressed long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) during PDCoV infection, we identified 99, 41 and 33 differentially expressed lncRNAs in the early, middle and late stages of infection, respectively. These lncRNAs were involved in glycolysis / gluconeogenesis, histidine metabolism and pentose and Chloroalkane and chloroalkene degradation pathway. We obtained expression data of miRNAs, lncRNAs and mRNAs during PDCoV infection and constructed and investigated an interaction network. The qRT-PCR validation results of 6 differentially expressed lncRNAs were consistent with RNA-Seq results. CONCLUSIONS:This study is the first to examine differentially expressed lncRNAs after PDCoV infection of piglets. These results can provide new insights into PDCoV infection and antiviral strategies.

Project description:BackgroundPorcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) is a novel coronavirus that can cause diarrhea in nursing piglets. This study was aimed to investigate the roles of host differentially expressed genes on metabolic pathways in PDCoV infections.ResultsTwenty thousand six hundred seventy-four differentially expressed mRNAs were identified in 5-day-old piglets responded to PDCoV experimental infections. Many of these genes were correlated to the basic metabolism, such as the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway which plays a critical role in digestion. At the same time, in the PPAR pathway genes of fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) family members were observed with remarkably differential expressions. The differential expressed genes were associated with appetite decrease and weight loss of PDCoV- affected piglets.DiscussionFatty acid-binding protein 1 (FABP1) and fatty acid-binding protein 3 (FABP3) were found to be regulated by PDCoV. These two genes not only mediate fatty acid transportation to different cell organelles such as mitochondria, peroxisome, endoplasmic reticulum and nucleus, but also modulate fatty acid metabolism and storage as a signaling molecule outside the cell. Therefore, it can be preliminarily concluded that PPAR differential expression caused by PDCoV was mostly associated with weight loss and death from emaciation.ConclusionsThe host differentially expressed genes were associated with infection response, metabolism signaling and organismal systems signaling pathways. The genes of FABP family members in the PPAR signaling pathway were the most highly altered and played important roles in metabolism. Alteration of these genes were most likely the reason of weight loss and other clinical symptoms. Our results provided new insights into the metabolic mechanisms and pathogenesis of PDCoV infection.MethodsAnimal experiment, Determination of viral growth by real-time RT-PCR, Histopathology, Immunohistochemical staining, Microarray analysis.

Project description:RNA in milk exosomes can be absorbed in the mammalian intestinal tract and function in gene expression regulations. Our previous work demonstrated that porcine milk exosomes (PME) contain large amounts of miRNAs and mRNAs. Increasing evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are of particular interest, given their key role in diverse biological processes of animals. However, the expression profiles and the potential functions of lncRNAs and circRNAs in PME are still unknown. In the present study, we isolated PME by ultracentrifugation and performed a comprehensive analysis of lncRNA and circRNA in PME by using RNA sequencing. As a result, 2,466 novel lncRNAs, 809 annotated lncRNAs, and 61 circRNAs were identified in PME. The lncRNAs shared similar characteristics with other mammals in terms of length, exon number, and open reading frames. However, lncRNAs showed a higher level compared with mRNAs. Eight lncRNAs and five circRNAs in PME were selected for PCR identification. A functional enrichment analysis on the target genes of lncRNAs indicated that these genes were involved in cellular macromolecule metabolic, RNA metabolic, and immune processes. The circRNAs host genes were enriched in nucleic acid binding and adherence junction. We also evaluated the potential interaction targets between miRNAs and PME lncRNAs or circRNAs, and the results showed that the PME lncRNAs and the circRNAs have a high density of miRNA target sites. The top 20 highly expressed lncRNAs were found to interact with the proliferation-related miRNAs, and the circRNAs potentially targeted many miRNAs that are associated with the intestinal barrier. This study is the first to provide a resource for lncRNA and circRNA research of porcine milk. Moreover, the potential interaction between lncRNA/circRNA and miRNA is revealed. The present study expands our knowledge of non-coding RNAs in milk, and additional research is necessary to confirm their exactly physiological functions.
