Canid alphaherpesvirus 1 infection affects the gene expression and secretome profile of canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells in vitro
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Canine adipose -derived mesenchymal stem cells (cAD-MSCs) demonstrate promising tissue repair and regeneration capabilities. However, the procurement and preservation of these cells or their secreted factors for therapeutic applications pose a risk of viral contamination, and the consequences on cAD-MSCs remain unexplored. Consequently, this research sought to assess the impact of Canid alphaherpesvirus 1 on the functional attributes of cAD-MSCs, including gene expression profiles and secretome composition. To this end, abdominal fat tissue from twelve healthy dogs was harvested to isolate cAD-MSCs. These samples were tested for CHV contamination before introducing a wild-type CHV strain via serial passages. Following CHV infection, RT-PCR arrays and LC-MS/MS assessments enabled gene expression analysis and the secretome's proteomic landscape, respectively. The study established that the initial cAD-MSCs populations were devoid of CHV. Upon exposure to the virus, cAD-MSCs exhibited susceptibility, leading to notable modifications in gene expression and secretome profile. These changes reflected their intrinsic properties, such as stemness, differentiation potential, structural integrity, proliferative capacity, survival, directional migration, and immune-modulatory functions, depriving their regenerative efficacy . Despite the absence of pre-existing contamination, the outcomes underscore the imperative of routine viral screening prior to therapeutic use, particularly CHV. Moreover, these findings provide insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of CHV and the intricate interactions between canine stem cells and viruses.
