MicroRNA expression profiling of caudal fin cell of C. auratus gibelio upon cyprinid herpesvirus 2 infection
2020
Abstract As a member of the genus Cyprinivirus in the family Alloherpesviridae, Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2) has caused great economic loss in the aquaculture industry, mainly in C. auratus gibelio and goldfish. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenicity of CyHV-2 remain elusive. In this study, high-throughput sequencing technology was employed to explore the miRNA expression profiles of C. auratus gibelio (GiCF) caudal fin cells in response to Cyprinid Herpesvirus-2 (CyHV-2) infection. A total of 631 novel miRNAs and 409 known miRNAs were identified. The expression levels of 7 miRNAs were found as significantly modulated (5 down-regulation and 2 up-regulation; P 1, TPM>10) in CyHV-2 infected cells. 7 miRNA and their potential mRNA targets were validated by Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), respectively. Targets prediction and functional analysis of these 7 miRNAs revealed significant enrichment for several signaling pathways, including PPAR, p53 and FoxO pathways. These studies provided more valuable basis for further study on the roles of miRNAs in CyHV-2 replication and pathogenesis.
