Abstract:

This work aims to explore the effects of porcine milk-derived exosome on porcine epidemic diarrhea virus in IPEC-J2 cells. We adapted crystal violet and MTT methods to measure cytoactive,and real-time-PCR and Western Blot to measure the expressions of PEDV virus and cell relative genes and proteins,respectively. The results showed that the porcine milk-derived exosome significantly inhibited the infectivity of PEDV virus to IPEC-J2 cells,and the cell survival rate and activity significantly increased(P<0.05). The M,N,ORF3,Spike,RNA polymerase and E genes of the virus inside the infected cells with PEDV and cell supernatant were extremely down-regulated(P<0.01). The PEDV virus N protein and IPEC-J2 cells’ apoptotic CLDN1 protein expressions were significantly inhibited by the porcine milk-derived exosome. Under different treatments,treatment 2(kill)and 3(repair)had no effect on the expressions of immune-related IFN-a and IRF3 genes respectively(P>0.05),and the other treatments extremely down-regulated the expression of pAPNP<0.01),but had no significant effect on the expression of NF-κB gene(P>0.05). All above results suggest that porcine milk-derived exosome under 3 different treatments may reduce the infectivity of the PEDV to the intestinal epithelial IPEC-J2 cells in piglets. It is speculated that its mechanism may reduce infectivity by inhibiting viral infection or replication-related genes on the one hand,and on the other hand,or enhance the resistance of cells to viruses by reducing intracellular apoptosis or increasing the expressions of immune-related genes t,so as to achieve the protective effect of piglet intestinal epithelial cells,but the specific regulation mechanism needs to be further investigated.
