Project description:Porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a virus infecting swine and causes swine abortion. Previously, non-structural protein 11 (Nsp11) from PRRSV was shown to have inhibitory function to type I IFN signaling. In this project, we want to see in addition to type I IFN, whether other cellular pathways are influenced by Nsp11 systemtically. A cell line stably expressing PRRSV Nsp11 was established, designated as MARC-Nsp11 cells, and an RNA microarray was conducted using these cells and WT MARC-145 cells

A cell line stably expressing PRRSV Nsp11 was established, designated as MARC-Nsp11 cells, and an RNA microarray was conducted using these cells and WT MARC-145 cells MARC-145 and MARC-Nsp11 cells were seeded one day prior to experiments and total cellular RNAs were extracted using Trizol (Invitrogen) and purified by RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen). The quantity and quality of RNA were determined using an Align 2100 bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Palo, Alto, CA, USA), and the RNA integrity was determined above 7. The RNA samples were then subjected to microarray using Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays (Affymetrix UK Ltd, High Wycombe, UK) at the Keck Biotechnology Center, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL). The microarray was repeated twice in duplicates each.
Project description:Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRSV) is a devastating pathogen for the pig industry worldwide. PRRSV mainly infects porcine alveolar macrophage (PAM). In the present study, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was employed to characterize the host transcriptome responses of PAMs infected with a virulent PRRSV strain in vivo and ex vivo. Increase ofpro-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic genes was correlated with the increase of infection (expression of the virus ORF7 transcript).
Project description:Transcriptomes analysis of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and mRNA expression profiles of the porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs) after porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection in vitro. We obtained 105,627,026 clean reads from 109,443,286 raw reads. A total of 951 annotated and 751 novel lncRNAs were identified. PAMs showed distinct transcriptome profiles after PRRSV infection. It was observed that 126 lncRNAs and 753 mRNAs were differentially expressed between PRRSV-infected and control group PAMs.
Project description:To analyze gene expression profiles at the single-cell level in pigs infected with PRRSV (Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus), aiming to understand the dynamic changes in gene expression, immune responses, and cellular interactions during PRRSV infection, and identify potential targets for intervention or prevention
Project description:Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a causative agent of an important infectious disease causing serious economic losses to swine industry called PRRS (porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome). The clinical signs of this syndrome indcude respiratory disorders, abortions and variable mortality in piglets. To compare the virulence of highly diverse East European strains belonging to subtype 2 (Russian strain ILI and Belarusian strain BOR) and Danish strain from classical subtype 1 (DAN) the experimental study enrolling infection of piglets was performed. Gene expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of piglets infected with three PRRSV strains vs control piglets were analysed by microarray analysis to gain insight into transcriptome changes after PRRSV infection.
Project description:MARC-145 cells were infected with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV)-2 isolate SD95-21 (KC469618.1), and a mutant thereof (KO2), and subjected to ribosome profiling to analyse the viral and host translatome, frameshifting on the viral genome, and putative frameshift-related ribosome pausing events. Samples were harvested at 9 hpi by flash-freezing, without cycloheximide pre-treatment. RNase I treatment was carried out, following which ribosomes and enclosed RNA were isolated by centrifugation through a sucrose cushion. RNA was extracted, ribosomal RNA was removed using Illumina's RiboZero kit, and remaining RNA was gel purified to select fragments 19-80nt long. Fragments were cloned into adapters based on the TruSeq small RNA adapters, with an additional seven random nucleotides at the 5′-end of the 3′-adapter and the 3′-end of the 5′-adapter. Libraries were sequenced on the Illumina NextSeq 500 platform as a paired-end run. Note that sample nomeclature (including replicate numbers) is consistent between this and the two related accessions, and RiboSeq libraries are matched with RNASeq libraries, which were prepared from the same lysate.
Project description:We used the high-throughput sequencing and inhibitors to screen microRNAs that play the role in anti-porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) responses in porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs).
Project description:Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), which caused by the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), is a serious viral disease affecting global swine industry. At present, PRRSV vaccines fail to prevent this disease. Consequently, new antiviral strategies to compensate for the inefficacy of available vaccines are urgently required. Lysine acetylation is an important post-translational modification (PTM) regulating an array of pathological and physiological conditions. In this study, we profiled the global acetylome using acetylation specific antibody based enrichment and Tandem mass tag (TMT) label LC-MS in PRRSV-infected pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAMs). As a result, 3731 lysine acetylation sites on 1421 cellular proteins were identified and quantified 6 hours post infection (hpi). Bioinformatics analysis of the differentially acetylated proteins revealed their involvement in various biological processes, including the host immune response and energy metabolism.
Project description:Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), caused by PRRS virus (PRRSV), is the most economically important disease in pig populations. Lung damage is one major pathological condition following PRRSV infection, often leading to animal death. In vivo, PRRSV productive infection occurs predominately in alveolar macrophages of the lung. Here, transcriptome profiling of pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAMs) from Tongcheng piglets pre- and post- infection of highly pathogenic PRRSV has been performed using porcine Affymetrix GeneChip.
