Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent lipid peroxidation cell death pathway, holds unique implications for the antioxidant defense system, with possible contributions to inflammation. This exploration focuses on the dynamic interplay between ferroptosis and the host defense against viruses, emphasizing the influence of IFV infections on the activation of the ferroptosis pathway. IFV causes different types of cell death, including apoptosis, necrosis, and ferroptosis. IFV-induced ferroptotic cell death is mediated by alterations in iron homeostasis, intensifying the accumulation of reactive oxygen species and promoting lipid peroxidation. A comprehensive investigation into the mechanism of ferroptosis in viral infections, specifically IFV, has great potential to identify therapeutic strategies.

In this study, we compared the RNA-seq profiles of ORFV-infected or non-infected sheep testicular interstitial cells (STICs) and identified a novel host gene, potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 4 (KCNE4), as a key host factor involved in the ORFV infection.

Furthermore, the attachment and internalization assays showed decreased ORFV attachment, internalization, replication, and release by the KO HeLa cells, demonstrating a potential inhibition of ORFV entry into the cells by KCNE4.

An avirulent THEV strain that retains the immunosuppressive ability is used as a live vaccine. Characterizing the splice map of THEV is an essential step that would allow studies of individual genes mediating its immunosuppressive functions. We used RNA sequencing to characterize the splice map of THEV for the first time, providing key insights into the THEV gene expression and mRNA structures.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>After infecting a turkey B-cell line with the vaccine strain, samples in triplicates were collected at 4-, 12-, 24-, and 72-hours post-infection. Total RNA was extracted, and poly-A-tailed mRNA sequenced. Reads were mapped to the THEV genome after trimming and transcripts assembled with StringTie. We performed PCR of THEV cDNA, cloned the PCR products, and used Sanger sequencing to validate all identified splice junctions.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Researchers previously annotated the THEV genome as encoding 23 open reading frames (ORFs). We identified 29 spliced transcripts from our RNA sequencing data, all containing novel exons although some exons matched some previously annotated ORFs. The three annotated splice junctions were also corroborated by our data. During validation we identified five additional unique transcripts, a subset of which were further validated by 3' rapid amplification of cDNA ends (3' RACE). Thus, we report that the genome of THEV contains 34 transcripts with the coding capacity for all annotated ORFs. However, we found six of the previously annotated ORFs to be truncated ORFs on the basis of the identification of an in-frame upstream start codon or the detection of additional coding exons. We also identified three of the annotated ORFs with longer or shorter isoforms, and seven novel unannotated ORFs that could potentially be translated; although it is beyond the scope of this manuscript to investigate whether they are translated.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Similar to human adenoviruses, all THEV transcripts are spliced and organized into five transcription units under the control of their cognate promoters. The genes are expressed under temporal regulation and THEV also produces multiple distinctly spliced transcripts that code for the same protein. Studies of the newly identified potential proteins should be urgently performed as these proteins may have roles in THEV-induced immunosuppression. Also, knowing the splicing of THEV genes should be invaluable to future research focusing on studying THEV genes, as this will allow accurate cloning of the mRNAs.</p>","PeriodicalId":23616,"journal":{"name":"Virology Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11304566/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141898372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
