Abstract
AbstractThis study focuses on the immunoregulatory effects of chicken TRIM25 on the replication of subgroup A of avian leukosis virus (ALV-A) and the MDA5-mediated type I interferon response. The ALV-A-SDAU09C1 strain was inoculated into DF1 cells and 1-day-old SPF chickens, and the expression of TRIM25 was detected at different time points after inoculation. A recombinant overexpression plasmid containing the chicken TRIM25 gene (TRIM25-GFP) was constructed and transfected into DF1 cells to analyse the effects of the overexpression of chicken TRIM25 on the replication of ALV-A and the expression of MDA5, MAVS and IFN-β. A small interfering RNA targeting chicken TRIM25 (TRIM25-siRNA) was prepared and transfected into DF1 cells to assess the effects of the knockdown of chicken TRIM25 on the replication of ALV-A and the expression of MDA5, MAVS and IFN-β. The results showed that chicken TRIM25 was significantly upregulated at all time points both in ALV-A-infected cells and in ALV-A-infected chickens. Overexpression of chicken TRIM25 in DF1 cells dramatically decreased the antigenic titres of ALV-A in the cell supernatant and upregulated the relative expression of MDA5, MAVS and IFN-β induced by ALV-A or by poly(I:C); in contrast, knockdown of chicken TRIM25 significantly increased the antigenic titres of ALV-A and downregulated the relative expression of MDA5, MAVS and IFN-β. It can be concluded that chicken TRIM25 can inhibit the replication of ALV-A and upregulate the MDA5 receptor-mediated type I interferon response in chickens. This study can help improve the understanding of the antiviral activities of chicken TRIM25 and enrich the knowledge of antiviral responses in chickens.
