African Swine Fever Virus Envelope Glycoprotein CD2v Interacts with Host CSF2RA to Regulate the JAK2-STAT3 Pathway and Inhibit Apoptosis to Facilitate Virus Replication.

ABSTRACT: African swine fever (ASF) is a highly infectious disease caused by the African swine fever virus (ASFV) in swine. It is characterized by the death of cells in infected tissues. However, the molecular mechanism of ASFV-induced cell death in porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs) remains largely unknown. In this study, transcriptome sequencing of ASFV-infected PAMs found that ASFV activated the JAK2-STAT3 pathway in the early stages and apoptosis in the late stages of infection. Meanwhile, the JAK2-STAT3 pathway was confirmed to be essential for ASFV replication. AG490 and andrographolide (AND) inhibited the JAK2-STAT3 pathway, promoted ASFV-induced apoptosis, and exerted antiviral effects. Additionally, CD2v promoted STAT3 transcription and phosphorylation as well as translocation into the nuc
