RESUMEN
El virus pancreático necrótico
infeccioso no bloquea la tirosina 701-STAT1 (α / β) en Oncorhynchus
mykiss (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae).
El virus de la Necrosis Pancreática infecciosa (IPNV) es un importante
patógeno que afecta principalmente
salmónidos. El tipo de interferón I alfa cumple un rol crucial como la
primera línea de defensa contra la infección de IPNV. La activación de IFN-I(α)
induce el señalamiento de la ruta JAK-STAT, uniendo sus receptores en una
rápida fosforilación de STATs, un paso crítico para
la translocación al núcleo induciendo los genes estimulados por el Interferón (ISGs). La relación entre el nivel de infectividad de las
cepas de IPNV y la ruta de señalamiento de IFN es aun pobremente entendido.
Nuestro propósito fue investigar si la ruta de señalamiento del IFN-I(α) es
afectada por el nivel de infectividad de distintas cepas. Usamos dos aislados
de IPNV (VR-299 y Sp) para infectar células RTG-2. El RNA total fue aislado
usando un kit comercial para determinar la expresión de la proteína VP2 a nivel de mRNA de VP2 e IGS mediante qRT-PCR. Análisis
de Western Immunoblot fue realizado para determinar
el nivel de fosforilación de la proteína STAT1 (α/β) en el residuo tirosina
701en las células infectadas. La cepa de mayor virulencia no está asociada con
un mayor aumento del efecto del bloqueo del señalamiento del interferón.
Asimismo, la activación de la Y701-STAT1
(α/β) fue significativamente incrementada en las células infectadas con el
virus del serotipo Sp, comparadas con el virus del serotipo VR-299, indicando
que IPNV inhibe la ruta de señalamiento de IFN. IPNV no bloquea la
fosforilación de la tirosina 701 STAT1 (α/β) estimulada por IFN-I(α), contrario
como lo hacen otros virus de RNA..

ABSTRACT
Necrosis Pancreatic Infectious
Virus does not block
701-STAT1 (α/β) tyrosine in Oncorhynchus
mykiss (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae). Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) is
a pathogen important that affects predominantly
salmonids. The type I interferon alpha system has a crucial role in the first line of defense against
IPNV infection. IFN-I(α) activation
triggers the signaling pathway JAK-STAT, binding to their receptors results in the rapid phosphorylation
of STATs a critical step for the nuclear translocation to induce the interferon stimulated genes (ISGs). The relationship between infectivity level of IPNV strain and pathway signaling of IFN is yet poorly
understood. Our purpose was to investigate if the IFN-I(α) signaling pathway is affected
by IPNV strains of different infectivity levels. We used
two IPNV isolated (VR-299
and Sp) to infect RTG-2 cells.
Total RNA was isolated using the commercial kit for determine to VP2 expression
and ISGs using qRT-PCR. Western Immunoblotting analysis was carried
out for determine the 701 STAT1(α/β) phosphorylation
into infected cells. Hence, a higher virulence strain is not
associated with a greater blocking effect for interferon
signaling. Furthermore, the activation of Y701-STAT1
(α/β) was significantly increased in serotype Sp virus infected cells compared with serotype
VR-299 virus infected cells,
indicating that IPNV inhibits IFN signaling pathway. As concluded, IPNV does not block the phosphorylation of
701-tyrosine STAT1 (α/β) stimulated by IFN-I(α), contrary to other RNA viruses.

Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) is an aquabirnavirus
member of the Birnaviridae family that causes an
emerging disease which affects predominantly salmonids (OIE 2006; Smail et al., 2006). The clinical disease and the
percentage of mortality depend on some factors such as water temperature, strain and infection pathway (Wolf, 1988; Arguedas et al.,
2015). The virus produced a mortality ranged from 90 to 100% in rainbow trout
(Oncorhynchus mykiss) with 1-4 month of age (McAllister & Bebak, 1997); although mortality levels can varey considerably, partly due to strain virulence
variation (Santi et al., 2004). Two segments of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA),
that encodes five viral proteins, composing the IPNV genome. The segment A
encodes VP2, VP3, VP4 and VP5; while B encodes only
VP1. Studies have shown that residues in positions 217 and 221 are key for
determining the virulence of serotype Sp strains (Song et al., 2005). Virulent
strains have a combination of threonine (Thr) and
alanine (Ala) in positions 217 and 221, respectively (T217 A221), while strains
of intermediate virulence carry proline P217 A221. Strains with (T217; T221)
and T217 with P217 are avirulent. During IPNV infection, interferon type I
(IFN-I(α)) binding to their receptors results in the rapid autophosphorylation
(Skjesol et al., 2010) and the activation of the
receptor associated to TYK2 and JAKs (Silvennoinen et
al., 1993; Kotenko et al., 2003), which in turn
regulate the phosphorylation and STATs activation in response to interferon
(Darnell et al., 1994; Stark et al., 1998). Randall and Goodbourn
(2008) observed in mammals that Y-701-STAT1 phosphorylation induce the binding
of a STAT protein to other STAT, forming either a homodimer or a heterodimer
which considered a critical step for the nuclear translocation. Hoeve et al. (2002) reported in HeLa cells and in murines that, TC-45 phosphatase is responsible for the
dephosphorylation of STAT1 protein Y-701. In the nucleus, the STAT dimer binds
to interferon stimulated response elements (ISRE) promoter to induce the mRNA
expression of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) against viral infection in
teleost (Robertsen et al., 2003; Zhou et al., 2007;
García et al., 2011). Also, several studies have demonstrated the action of
ISGs in vitro and in vivo (Kinkelin & Dorson,
1973; Eaton 1990; Robertsen 2006; Verrier et al.,
2011), such as Mx, 2-5 Oligo Adenylate Sintetase
(2’-5’ OAS), antiviral protein viperine (Vig-1),
RNA-dependent Protein Kinase (PKR) among others (Sen, 2001; Platanias,
2005). The JAK-STAT pathway and transcription factors associated with the
family of STAT proteins have been poorly studied in fish (Jørgensen
et al., 2007; Zhou et al., 2007). Although fish genomes contain all mammals
JAK-STAT pathway component keys, including JAK1, TYR2, STAT1, STAT2 and IRF9
(Leu et al., 2000; Stein et al., 2007; Collet et al., 2009; Sun et al., 2009;
Shi et al., 2012). In the animal kingdom, the signaling pathway JAK -STAT is a
powerful defense mechanism, some viruses may affect this pathway by the usage
of various strategies which blocks or decreases the antiviral response (Randall
& Goodbourn, 2008). For example, Ebola virus
blocks the induction of interferon regulatory factor (IRF) (Harcourt, 1999),
hepatitis C virus (HCV) blocks the interferon stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3)
(Heim et al., 1999). Dengue virus serotype 2 inhibits the expression of STAT2,
West Nile virus (WNV) blocks the tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT1 701 (Liu et
al., 2005), and encephalitis Japanese virus (JEV) blocks the phosphorylation of
Tyk2 and STAT activation (Ling et al., 2006). Likewise, studies have reported
that Sendai virus (SeV) can interact with STAT1
inhibiting tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT induced by IFN-I(α) (Garcin et al., 1999; Gotoh et
al., 1999; Komatsu et al., 2000). However, data concerning STAT1 activation in
fish through the JAK-STAT pathway are limited. Assuming that STAT1 is a key
cellular protein, which activates ISGs and it has a function like transcription
factor subsequent to interferon type I receptor binding; our purpose was
investigate if the IFN-I(α) signaling pathway is affected by IPNV strains of
different infectivity levels.

IPNV replication
Serotype Sp protein expression (Sp-VP2) showed a transcript higher level from 4 to 36 hours post infection (hpi) (P < 0,05; Figure 1) when
was compared with values obtained
for (VR-299-VP2), except at
60 hpi where VP2-VR-299
mRNA was higher. However, the viral replication was increasing by both
IPNV isolates after 4 hpi, although, the higher
increase was showed by Sp serotype
virus (P < 0,05ab).
On the other hand,
the mRNA IFN-I(α) detected
at 4 and 8 hpi in cells infected with VR-299 virus was significantly lower when was
compared to the Sp Virus (P
< 0,05ab). Additionally, the
interferon expression values showed significant
differences at 8 and 12 hpi
(P < 0,05; Figure 2B), and values expression were subsequent irregulars for this case. However, the expression
increase of VP2-VR-299 did not show a clear
relationship with the expression of this cytokine. The STAT-1(α) mRNA
in infected cells with serotype Sp virus showed a kinetic similar expression to the detected by interferon
from 4 to 60 hpi (Figure
2C). However, registered values at 4 and 8 hpi were higher compared
to the expressed values in infected cells with serotype
virus VR-299 (P < 0,05ab). Likewise, mRNA STAT-1(α) in infected
cells with latter serotype were higher at 24 and 60 hpi when was
compared with serotype Sp virus. Moreover,
STAT-1(α) mRNA showed a kinetic
similar expression to the registered by IFN-I(α), showing increase and decrease in the same time points (r = 0,85, p
< 0,0001). According to Mx-1 mRNA, a rapid expression was obtained at 4 hpi in infected cells with serotype
Sp virus, although a significant
expression decrease at 8,
12 and 36 hpi was found (P < 0,05; Figure 2E). Contrary,
the Mx-1 transcript expressed at 4 hpi in infected cells with serotype VR-299 virus was lower, when
was compared with obtained value
in infected cells with serotype Sp virus. In addition, Mx-1 expression values (Figure 2F) were similar
to the observed in the infected cells
with serotype Sp virus in other time-points coinciding with an increase of viral replication.
Y701-STAT1(α/β) phosphorylation expressed in infected RTG-2 cells with IPNV
STAT1 (α/β) activation
was induced in infected cells with both IPNV serotypes in early infection stage. However, in cells infected with serotype
Sp virus the activation level showed a significant increase at 4, 8, 12
y 24 hpi (Figure 3A) compared
to activation level registered in infected cells with serotype
VR-299 virus (P < 0,05ab). Further, the Y701-STAT1(α/β) activation in
infected cell with serotype Sp virus was increasing from zero minutes (0 hpi) until 12 hpi,
showing a significant phosphorylation peaks at 12 and
24 hpi (2,7 and 1,36 fold respectively) compared to control
group (P < 0,05). However,
contrary, the level phosphorylation revealed in infected cell with serotype
VR-299 virus did not show a significant difference in the same time-points (P > 0,05;
Figure 3B), however, the phosphorylation peaks were at 12 and 24 hpi also (~ 0,175 fold in each time point), but the values
were lower.

The IPNV infection induces the synthesis of genes involved in
nonspecific immune response (Robertsen, 2008). Although, the relationship
between the response level and the virus strain virulence is not clear. In the
present study, we evaluated two IPNV serotypes to know if the infectivity level
of the strains affects the signaling pathway of type I interferon alpha
(IFN-I(α)) in RTG-2 cells. The experiment which evaluate the viral replication,
indicates higher virulence of the Sp virus (Wolf, 1988; Dobos, 1995), which
involved the Sp strains in cases of high mortality rates or severe clinical
pictures (Santi et al., 2004; Santi et al., 2005). Sano et al. (1992), related
to the IPNV virulence with segment A, although recently was associated to the
residues 217 and 221 of VP2 protein (Santi et al., 2004). Highly virulent
isolates possess residues Thr217 and Ala221; moderate to low-virulence strains
have Pro217 and Ala221; and strains containing Thr221 are almost avirulent,
irrespective to the residue at position 217 (Song et al., 2005). Based on the above, strains used in this
study corresponding to moderate virulence (Sp serotype) and avirulent (VR-299).
Although, Smail et al. (2006) did not find mortality differences to compare a
high virulent strain with a moderate virulence strain, suggesting that others
factors associated to the strain or immune response possibly affect the
infection findings (Ortega et al., 2011). In our study, we might hypothesize
that higher viral replication before 24 hpi are associated with a greater
penetration for serotype Sp virus, linked to the amino acids residue sequences
of the hypervariable region of VP2 binding protein. In addition, this region
might interact with cell receptors in a different way (Dobos 1995; Kuznar et
al., 1995; Granzow et al., 1997).
Earlier work demonstrated that peptide derived of Vp2 maturation of
infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) participates in the virus-cell entry
suggesting that peptide 46 (pep 46) has a domain rich in proline (positions
458, 465, 469) that disrupt cell membrane and induces pores (Galloux et al.,
2007). However, in our work we did not find differences between strains in VP2
for peptide 46 (results not shown), therefore, both viruses should behave
similarly, so this peptide 46 is not implicated in viral replication difference between both
serotypes. Therefore, viral replication differences might to be associated with
other structural and functional aspects that have been implicated to IBDV replication
(Da Costa et al., 2002).
Some proteases like IPNV-Vp4 protein have been considered as virulence
factors; however, this finding is not been shown yet (Skjesol et al., 2009);
additionally, the possible involvement of VP5 protein as a virulence factor has
been discarded.
We
demonstrated that, apparently others viral and cellular factors have influenced
that serotype Sp virus show a higher replication. Interestingly the serotype
VR-299 virus reached replication values higher to the Sp at 60 hpi. Studies by Kuznar et al. (1995) showed that
at 10 hpi, viral RNA is detected and at 14 hpi mature particles were detected
also, so this situation might be associated with a random value of viral
multiplicity because at this time-points, more than two replication cycles have
elapsed (Espinoza et al., 2000). IPNV infection induced the expression of
IFN-I(α) that module an antiviral response stimulating the other gene effectors
(Saint-Jean and Pérez-Prieto, 2007). Our results indicate that replication
increase in both serotypes (Sp serotype virus higher than VR-299) was
associated a decreased of IFN-I mRNA, suggesting that, inhibition of alpha
interferon signaling is required for viral replication in early stages of
infection. This finding is consistent with observations from (Skjesol et al.,
2009) that described the ability of IPNV to reduce the interferon immune
response; however, contrary to the hypothesized; the IFN-I(α) expression was
higher in infected cells with serotype Sp virus, suggesting a lineal positive
correlation between strain virulence and alpha interferon immune response.
Although a high expression of
this cytokine might produce a negative effect in cells implicated in high
mortality caused by the cell production of proteases and other proteins that
contribute to cell damage (Hay & Kannourakis, 2002). In contrast to the outcomes
in infected cells with VR-299 serotype virus (avirulent strain), the cellular
response was attenuated. Additionally,
to this study, earlier work demonstrated that IPNV inhibits the mechanism of
interferon signaling (Robertsen, 2008). In relation to this, we showed an
indirect relationship between VP2-IPNV expression and mRNA STAT-1(α)
expression, associated with a decrease of interferon transcript simultaneously,
explained by STAT-1(α) is a ISGs. However, our research also showed that higher
virulence strain is not associated with a greater effect for blocking of alpha
interferon signaling. This outcome can be explained by STAT-1(α) expression was
higher at 8 hpi in infected cells with serotype Sp virus. Additionally, this
latter finding is supported by higher STAT1(α/β) phosphorylation level induced
by serotype Sp virus compared to serotype VR-299 virus between 4 and 24 hpi
(phosphorylation peak at 12 hpi).
Additionally, we demonstrated that Mx-1 protein inhibit IPNV replication
(Larsen et al., 2004; Jørgensen et al., 2007). However, Mx-1 transcript was
down-regulated simultaneously, the virus replication increased. Possibly, because RTG-2 cells were not priory
stimulated with IFN-I or Poly: IC (Skjesol et al., 2009). Interestingly, the Mx-1 transcript level
between both strains was similar to other study (Ortega et al., 2011), which
reported virulence strain does not affect the Mx expression; we suggest that
both strains has a similar antiviral sensitivity against the interferon
response and ISGs such as Mx protein. A
Mx protein positive effect against infection IPNV possibly is mediated by other
factors such as isoform and amount of protein, cells type, infection
temperature among others (Arguedas et al. 2015). The Y-701 STAT1(α/β)
phosphorylation mediates rapid and robust activity and expression specific
transcriptional of genes for the activating of cytokines and cell factors
growth (Decker et al., 2002; Skjesol et al., 2010). Our results showed that
STAT1(α/β) -pY701 level was significantly increased in infected cells serotype
Sp virus, determined by a significant increase of IFN-I(α) expression at an
early point after infection (4 and 8 hpi) compared to values observed in
infected cell serotype VR-299 virus. This suggest that, 701 STAT1(α/β) tyrosine
was activated by interferon type I(α) in trout, but not by intracellular type
(iIFN-Ib) that was reported for the first time in vertebrates (rainbow trout),
not showing biological activity on STAT1 and STAT2 phosphorylation (Chang et
al., 2013). The alpha interferon
response against IPNV infection induced 701-STAT1(α/β) phosphorylation with
both serotypes. Fascinatingly, this observation illustrate that IPNV does not
inhibit the phosphorylation of 701-tyrosine-STAT1(α/β) stimulated by IFN-I(α),
contrary to other RNA viruses (Horvath, 2004; Randall & Goodbourn, 2008).
Nevertheless, the level Y701-STAT1(α/β) activation is directly correlated with
the strains IPNV virulence. Activation
of STAT1(α/β) in mammals contributes to the maximum transcriptional activation
and apoptosis (Sironi & Ouchi, 2004; Thomas et al., 2004; Townsend et al.,
2004).
Apoptosis previously documented
by IPNV infected fish both in vitro and in vivo independently strain virulence
(Hong et al., 1999; Espinoza et al., 2005; Ortega et al., 2014). Hence, our
results of higher STAT1(α/β) activation found in infected cell with serotype Sp
virus indicates apparently that apoptosis mechanism was required for rapid
elimination of infected cell, such as high cellular response to the strain virulence.
Additionally, the STAT-1(α) and IFN-I(α) expression were down-regulated, that
might be associated to a lower quantity of live cells. Contrary, the
up-regulation gene expression found in infected cell with serotype VR-299 virus
at 24 and 60 hpi which could be a consequence of a higher cell’s ability to
establish an antiviral effect. However, information associated with STAT1(α/β)
phosphorylation after IPNV infection in teleost is limited and the apoptosis
depend completely on the Y-701STAT1 (α/β) phosphorylation and it is an
interesting question that needs to be addressed in future studies. Our data
indicates a negative effect by IPNV on signaling alpha interferon and ISGs
independently to the strain virulence. IPNV does not block the phosphorylation
701STAT1 (α/β) tyrosine contrary to other RNA viruses. Further studies are
clearly needed in order to identify others molecular mechanisms how IPNV
inhibits signaling pathway alpha interferon.
