Abstract
Avian leukemia virus subgroup A (ALV-A) infection slows chicken growth, immunosuppression, and tumor occurrence, causing economic loss to the poultry industry. According to previous findings, A20 has a dual role in promoting and inhibiting tumor formation but has rarely been studied in avians. In this study, A20 overexpression and shRNA interference recombinant adenoviruses were constructed and inoculated into chicken embryos, and ALV-A (rHB2015012) was inoculated into 1-day-old chicks. Analysis of body weight, organ index, detoxification, antibody production, organ toxin load, and Pathological observation revealed that A20 overexpression could enhance ALV-A pathogenicity. This study lays the foundation for subsequent exploration of the A20-mediated tumorigenic mechanism of ALV-A.
