MiR-202-5p Inhibits RIG-I-Dependent Innate Immune Responses to RGNNV Infection by Targeting TRIM25 to Mediate RIG-I Ubiquitination.

ABSTRACT: The RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) signaling pathway is essential for inducing type I interferon (IFN) responses to viral infections. Meanwhile, it is also tightly regulated to prevent uncontrolled immune responses. Numerous studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential for the regulation of immune processes, however, the detailed molecular mechanism of miRNA regulating the RLRs signaling pathway remains to be elucidated. Here, our results showed that miR-202-5p was induced by red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) infection in zebrafish. Overexpression of miR-202-5p led to reduced expression of IFN 1 and its downstream antiviral genes, thus facilitating viral replication in vitro. In comparison, significantly enhanced levels of IFN 1 and antiviral genes and significant
