Genome-wide profiling of chicken DCs response to infectious bursal disease virus

ABSTRACT: Background: Avian infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is a major poultry disease which leads to significant losses of poultry industry. Dendritic cells (DCs), the only bridge communicated the innate and acquired immunity, have the most important antigen presenting ability and can significantly influence the pathogenicity of viruses. To understand the interaction between IBDV and DCs, microarray was used to analyze the response of DCs infected by IBDV. Results: Results showed that IBDV infection induced 479 up-regulated and 466 down-regulated mRNAs in chicken DCs. GO terms analysis suggested that transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter and RNA biosynthetic process were mainly enriched, whilst pathway analyses suggested that oxidative phosphorylation, T cell receptor and IL-17 signaling pathway might activated by IBDV infection. Moreover, we detected the microRNA (miRNA) and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) alterations in IBDV-infected chicken DCs. Results identified 18 significant up- or down- regulated miRNAs and 441 significant up- or down-regulated lncRNAs in IBDV-stimulated DCs. Furthermore, we constructed 42 TF (transcription factors)-miRNA-mRNA interactions involving 1 TF, 3 miRNAs and 42 mRNAs in IBDV-stimulated DCs. Finally, we predicted the target genes of different expressed lncRNAs and constructed lncRNA-mRNA regulatory networks. Conclusions: Altogether, our research suggested a mechanism to explain how IBDV infection triggered an effective immune response in chicken DCs.

Project description:Nasal cavity is the main gateway for pathogen infection although it composed of many layers of defending barriers. Pathogens strongly willing to enter and infect from nasal cavity with the dominant form aerosol or respiratory droplets. However, the underlying mechanism of virus nasal infection and transmission are still unknown. Hence, a better understanding of this mechanism may provide insight into the pathogenesis of virus. In this study, IBDV was select as a model virus to study nasal infection and transmission for it could infect chicken from head (nasal) to tail (basal) and lead to massive destruction of bursal IgM+ B-lymphocytes. Initially, we found IBDV mostly entered and infected the interior of chicken’s nasal, where full of lymphoid tissue and easily for virus to transfer into blood. After passing nasal barriers, IBDV was subsequently transmit into blood and infected PBMCs. Following blood circulates, IBDV then infected bursal and hugely destroyed B-lymphocytes. However, the mechanism of how IBDV influenced the bursal cells, especially how virus destroyed B-lymphocytes were still unclear. With the help of single cells RNA sequence, we identified five vigorous clusters, including three immune cells types (B-cells: 64.70%, dendritic cells: 3.32% and T-cells: 6.33%) and two non-immune cell types (epithelial cells: 23.86% and fibroblast cells: 1.80% cells). Further analyses found that B-cells population were serious damaged, especially IgM+ B cells. However, the IgA+ B cells population hugely increased after IBDV infection. Interesting, we first demonstrated that basal cells and other non-immune cells in Bursa of Fabricius (BF) were the main target for IBDV infection and replication. Together, our study not only comprehensive elaborated the airborne IBDV and its transmission via intranasal route into the BF, but also explained its distribution in different immune and nonimmune cells and immunoglobulins rearrangement after immunosuppressive disorder on an age dependent infected organ.
