Project description:Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is an economically important disease with a significant impact on the pig industry. It is caused by PRRS virus (PRRSV), which predominantly infects and replicates in porcine pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAMs), providing a useful in vitro model for understanding the host immune response to PRRSV infection. We pretreated PAMs with porcine IFN-α to induce an antiviral state within the cells and subsequently infected them with highly pathogenic (HP)-PRRSV. Changes in global gene expression in IFN-α-pretreated PAMs in response to HP-PRRSV infection were determined by RNA-sequence analysis. A total of 346 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were transcriptionally upregulated by porcine IFN-α. Among these up-regulated DEGs, 93 showed significantly attenuated expression levels in response to HP-PRRSV infection. These attenuated DEGs were remarkably enriched in immune-response-related terms, such as 'RIG-Ilike receptor signaling pathway', 'Response to virus', and 'Response to stimulus'. Notably, expression levels of 93.8% (15/16) of antiviral genes (such as PKR, OAS1, IFIT1(ISG56) and ISG15), and genes encoding retinoic-acid-inducible gene-I protein (LOC100737466(DDX58), a cytoplasmic viral RNA sensor), interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7, a key transcriptional regulator of type I IFN-dependent immune response), signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (LOC100738308(STAT1), a transcription factor for IFN-stimulated genes), and tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TNFSF10, a cytokine initiating proapoptotic signaling cascades) were significantly attenuated by HP-PRRSV infection. These results suggest that HP-PRRSV can counteract the type I IFN-induced antiviral state by interfering with the expression of genes involved in the host-defense response.

Project description:Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome caused by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is an infectious disease characterized by severe reproductive deficiency in pregnant sows, respiratory symptoms in piglets, and high mortality. In this study, we employed Affymetrix microarray chip technology to compare the gene expression profiles of lung tissue samples from Dapulian (DPL) pigs (a Chinese indigenous pig breed) and Duroc×Landrace×Yorkshire (DLY) pigs after infection with PRRSV. During infection with PRRSV, the DLY pigs exhibited the range of clinical features that typify the disease, while the DPL pigs exhibited only mild signs of the disease. The percentage of CD8+ T cells in the DPL pigs was significantly higher than that in the DLY pigs at 21 days post-infection (dpi) (p< 0.05). Interleukin (IL) 1 beta (IL-1β) and IL-2 levels showed significant differences between the DPL and DLY pigs at 0 and 7 dpi (p< 0.01). For IL-10, the DLY pigs had significantly higher values than the DPL pigs at 0 and 7 dpi (p< 0.01). Significant differences were apparent between the DPL and DLY pigs in terms of their tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interferon (IFN)-gamma (IFN-γ) levels at 0 and 7 dpi (p< 0.01). Microarray data revealed 16 differentially expressed genes in the lung tissue samples from the DLY and DPL pigs (q≤5%), of which LOC100516029 and LOC100523005 were up-regulated in the PRRSV-infected DPL pigs, while the other 14 genes were down-regulated in the PRRSV-infected DPL pigs compared with the PRRSV-infected DLY pigs. The expression levels of 10 of the 16 genes, namely CCDC84, C6ORF52, THYMOSIN, PRVE, HSPCB, CYP2J2, AMPD3, TOR1AIP2, PTGES3, and ACOX3, were validated by real-time quantitative RT-PCR. This study provides a platform for further investigation of the molecular mechanisms underlying the differential immune responses to PRRSV infection in different breeds or lines of pig. We investigated the response of lung tissues from Dapulian (DPL) pigs (a Chinese indigenous pig breed) and Duroc×Landrace×Yorkshire (DLY) pigs infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (strain JXA1) by using the Affymetrix Porcine Genome Array.

Project description:One hundred Hampshire by Duroc crossbred pigs (HD) and 100 NE Index line pigs (I) were infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and evaluated for resistance/susceptibility. Controls (100/line) were uninfected littermates to infected pigs. Viremia (V), weight change (WTΔ), and rectal temperature at 0, 4, 7, and 14 days post-infection (dpi) were recorded. Lung, bronchial lymph node (BLN), and blood tissue were collected at necropsy (14 dpi). Infected pigs were classified as low or high responders to PRRSV based on the first principal component (PC) from principal component analyses of all variables. Low responders to PRRSV (low PRRSV burden) and their uninfected littermates were assigned to low (L) class. High responders to PRRSV (high PRRSV burden) and their uninfected littermates were assigned to high (H) class. Infected pigs in the L-class had high WTΔ, low V, and few lung lesions; H-class pigs had low WTΔ, high V, and many lung lesions. RNA was extracted from lung and BLN tissue of the seven highest and seven lowest responders per line and from each of their control littermates. A control reference design was used and cDNA from each reference sample tissue was prepared from pooled RNA extracted from two control pigs from each line whose infected littermates had a PC value of 0. Design variables in data analyses were line (I vs HD), class (H vs L), treatment (infected vs uninfected controls), and slide/pig as error.

We investigated the response of lung tissues from Dapulian (DPL) pigs (a Chinese indigenous pig breed) and Duroc×Landrace×Yorkshire (DLY) pigs infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (strain JXA1) by using the Affymetrix Porcine Genome Array. Sixteen healthy 30-day-old weaned DPL pigs were selected from the Jiaxiang Dapulian farm, Jining City, China, and 15 healthy 30-day-old weaned DLY pigs were obtained from a commercial farm with high standards of animal health. These pigs were free from PRRSV, porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), pseudorabies virus (PRV), and classical swine fever virus (CSFV) as determined by ELISA tests for serum antibodies; the absence of PRRSV was also confirmed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). Pigs were randomly assigned into two groups and reared in separate places: the PRRSV-infected group consisted of 11 DPL and 10 DLY pigs, and the control group consisted of five DPL and five DLY pigs. Infections in the pigs proceeded via inoculation with 2 ml of a viral suspension of PRRSV (at a tissue culture infectious dose of 105) by dripping the solution into the nasal cavity of each pig. The control group was treated with an identical volume of PBS by the same method. Rectal temperatures and clinical examinations on the pigs were recorded daily during the experiment. Anticoagulant-treated blood and untreated blood samples were collected separately at 0, 7, 14, and 21 days post-infection (dpi) from the infected and control groups for assaying CD4+, CD8+, cytokine (interleukin (IL) 1 beta (IL-1β), IL-2, IL-10, interferon (IFN)-gamma (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and immunoglobulin G (IgG) protein levels. Lung samples for microarray analysis and real-time qRT-PCR analysis were collected from six infected DLY and DPL pigs (three pigs for each breed) immediately post-slaughter at 28 dpi. Total RNA was isolated from lung tissue samples and purified using an RNeasy Mini kit according to the manufacturer’s protocol. RNA was prepared using the GeneChip (AFF-900623) one cycle target for the labeling and control reagents, and the labeled RNA was hybridized in an Affymetrix Hybridization Oven 640 for sequencing.

Project description:Backfat thickness is one of the most important traits of commercially raised pigs. Meishan pigs are renowned for having thicker backfat than Landrace pigs. To examine the genetic factors responsible for the differences, we first produced female crossbred pig lines by mating Landrace (L) × Large White (W) × Duroc (D) females (LWD) with Landrace (L) or Meishan (M) boars (i.e., LWD × L = LWDL for Landrace offspring and LWD × M = LWDM of the Meishan offspring). We confirmed that LWDM pigs indeed had a thicker backfat than LWDL pigs. Next, we performed gene expression microarray analysis (in both genetic lines) to examine differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in energy metabolism-related tissues, subcutaneous adipose (fat), liver, and longissimus dorsi muscle tissues. We analyzed the annotation of DEGs (2-fold cutoff) to functionally categorize them by Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways. The number of DEGs in muscle tissues of both lines was much less than that in fat and liver tissues, indicating that DEGs was much lesser in muscle tissues (in both genetic lines) than in fat and liver tissues, thus indicating that DEGs in muscle tissues may not contribute much to differences in backfat thickness. In contrast, several genes related to muscle (in fat tissue) and fatty acid and glucose metabolism (in the liver) were more upregulated in LWDM pigs than LWDL pigs, indicating that those DEGs might be responsible for differences in backfat thickness. The different genome-wide, gene expression profiles in the fat, liver, and muscle tissues between breeds can provide useful information for pig breeders.

Project description:BACKGROUND: There was a large scale outbreak of the highly pathogenic porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) in China and Vietnam during 2006 and 2007 that resulted in unusually high morbidity and mortality among pigs of all ages. The mechanisms underlying the molecular pathogenesis of the highly virulent PRRS virus (H-PRRSV) remains unknown. Therefore, the relationship between pulmonary gene expression profiles after H-PRRSV infection and infection pathology were analyzed in this study using high-throughput deep sequencing and histopathology. RESULTS: H-PRRSV infection resulted in severe lung pathology. The results indicate that aberrant host innate immune responses to H-PRRSV and induction of an anti-apoptotic state could be responsible for the aggressive replication and dissemination of H-PRRSV. Prolific rapid replication of H-PRRSV could have triggered aberrant sustained expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines leading to a markedly robust inflammatory response compounded by significant cell death and increased oxidative damage. The end result was severe tissue damage and high pathogenicity. CONCLUSIONS: The systems analysis utilized in this study provides a comprehensive basis for better understanding the pathogenesis of H-PRRSV. Furthermore, it allows the genetic components involved in H-PRRSV resistance/susceptibility in swine populations to be identified.

Project description:Purpose: To characterize the differential mRNA expression profiles of lung tissues upon PRRSV infection in different pig breeds, using NGS techonology, we sequenced mRNAs of the lungs of Tongcheng and Landrace pigs before (0 dpi) and after (3, 5, 7 dpi) infection with high-pathogenic PRRSV (HP-PRRSV). Methods: The mRNA expression profiles of the lungs of Tongcheng and Landrace pigs before (0 dpi) and after (3, 5, 7 dpi) HP-PRRSV infection were produced by using solexa platform. The raw reads with low qualities were filtered and the clean high quality reads were mapped to Ensembl Sus reference genome 10.2.71 using BOWTIE2. The unique mapped reads were retained for mRNA expression analysis. The raw reads counts of each mRNA were calculated by HTseq and the differentially expressed mRNA (Fold change >2; FDR <0.05) were called using DEGseq.

Project description:Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) infection of 3rd trimester pregnant pigs can result in transmission of the virus to the fetus and ultimately death in utero or postnatally. Little is known about the immune response to infection at the maternal-fetal interface and in the fetus itself, or the molecular events behind virus transmission and disease progression in the fetus. To investigate these processes, RNA-sequencing of two tissues, uterine endothelium adjacent to the umbilical attachment site and fetal thymus, was performed 21 days post challenge on four groups of fetuses selected from a large PRRSV challenge experiment of pregnant gilts. RNA-seq experiment compared gene expression between four different groups of fetuses (n=12 per group): control (CON-uninfected fetuses from mock inoculated gilts), UNINF (uninfected fetuses from PRRSV-inoculated gilts), INF (infected fetuses from PRRSV-inoculated gilts), and meconium-stained fetuses (MEC-meconium-stained fetuses from PRRSV-inoculated gilts) and investigated two tissues: uterine endometrium (with adherent placental tissue) at the site of umbilical attachment and fetal thymus (96 samples in total). Three contrasts were performed for the differential expression (edgeR) and network (WGCNA) analyses: UNINF v CON, INF v UNINF, and MEC v INF.

Project description:The tissues are the site of many important immunological reactions, yet how the immune system is controlled at these sites remains opaque. Recent studies have identified Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) in non-lymphoid tissues, with unique characteristics compared to lymphoid Tregs. However, tissue Tregs have not been considered holistically across tissues. Here we performed a systematic analysis of the Treg population residing in non-lymphoid organs throughout the body, revealing shared phenotypes, transient residency and common molecular dependencies. Tissue Tregs from different non-lymphoid organs shared T cell receptor (TCR) sequences, with functional capacity to drive multi-tissue Treg entry, and were tissue-agnostic on tissue homing. Together these results demonstrate that the tissue-resident Treg pool in most non-lymphoid organs, other than the gut, is largely constituted by broadly self-reactive Tregs, characterised by transient multi-tissue migration. This work suggests common regulatory mechanisms may allow pan-tissue Tregs to safeguard homeostasis across the body.
