Distinct interferon response in bat and other mammalian cell lines infected with Pteropine orthoreovirus.

ABSTRACT: Bats serve as natural hosts of Pteropine orthoreovirus (PRV), an emerging group of bat-borne, zoonotic viruses. Bats appear to possess unique innate immune system responses that can inhibit viral replication, thus reducing clinical symptoms. We examined the innate immune response against PRV and assessed viral replication in cell lines derived from four bat species (Miniopterus fuliginosus, Pteropus dasymallus, Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, and Rousettus leschenaultii), one rodent (Mesocricetous auratus), and human (Homo sapiens). The expression levels of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) (TLR3, RIG-I, and MDA5) and interferons (IFNB1 and IFNL1) were higher and PRV replication was lower in cell lines derived from M. fuliginosus, R. ferrumequinum, and R. leschenaultii. Reduction of IFNB1 expression by the knockdown of PRRs in the cell line derived from R. ferrumequinum was associated with increased PRV replication. The knockdown of RIG-I led to the most significant reduction in viral replication for all cell lines. These results suggest that RIG-I production is important for antiviral response against PRV in R. ferrumequinum.

Project description:Mammalian orthoreoviruses (MRVs) infect a wide range of hosts, including humans, livestock, and wildlife. In the present study, we isolated a novel Mammalian orthoreovirus from the intestine of a microbat (Myotis aurascens) and investigated its biological and pathological characteristics. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the new isolate was serotype 2, sharing the segments with those from different hosts. Our results showed that it can infect a wide range of cell lines from different mammalian species, including human, swine, and non-human primate cell lines. Additionally, media containing trypsin, yeast extract, and tryptose phosphate broth promoted virus propagation in primate cell lines and most human cell lines, but not in A549 and porcine cell lines. Mice infected with this strain via the intranasal route, but not via the oral route, exhibited weight loss and respiratory distress. The virus is distributed in a broad range of organs and causes lung damage. In vitro and in vivo experiments also suggested that the new virus could be a neurotropic infectious strain that can infect a neuroblastoma cell line and replicate in the brains of infected mice. Additionally, it caused a delayed immune response, as indicated by the high expression levels of cytokines and chemokines only at 14 days post-infection (dpi). These data provide an important understanding of the genetics and pathogenicity of mammalian orthoreoviruses in bats at risk of spillover infections.IMPORTANCEMammalian orthoreoviruses (MRVs) have a broad range of hosts and can cause serious respiratory and gastroenteritis diseases in humans and livestock. Some strains infect the central nervous system, causing severe encephalitis. In this study, we identified BatMRV2/SNU1/Korea/2021, a reassortment of MRV serotype 2, isolated from bats with broad tissue tropism, including the neurological system. In addition, it has been shown to cause respiratory syndrome in mouse models. The given data will provide more evidence of the risk of mammalian orthoreovirus transmission from wildlife to various animal species and the sources of spillover infections.
