INTRODUCTION: Bovine leukemia virus is a single-stranded RNA virus that targets B cell CD5+ lymphocytes in cattle. Only a tiny percentage of individuals develop malignant lymphoproliferative disorders, while most remain healthy carriers or experience persistent lymphocytosis. The exact mechanisms leading to lymphoma development are complex and not fully understood. RNA-seq analysis of cows' peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) with and without Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) antibodies was conducted to gain a deeper understanding of molecular events beyond BLV infection.
METHOD: Eighteen samples were selected, and their RNA was sequenced. For gene expression analysis and protein-protein network interactions, three groups were selected, including healthy negative samples (CT, n = 7), asymptomatic carriers (AC, n = 5), and persistent lymphocytosis (PL, n = 6), to provide the differentially expressed gene (DEG) and protein-protein interaction network (PPIN) outputs.
RESULTS: Our results demonstrated that in comparison to CT, ACs upregulated TLR7 and transcription activation factors. In the CT vs. PL group, MHC class II, transcription activation factors, and anti-inflammatory cytokines increased, while the acute-phase proteins, antiviral receptors, and inflammatory cytokines decreased. Additionally, antiviral receptors, acute-phase proteins, and inflammatory receptors were downregulated in the PL versus the AC groups. Moreover, PPINs analysis suggested that nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCOR1), serine/arginine repetitive matrix 2 (SRRM2), LUC7 like 3 pre-mRNA splicing factor (LUC7L3), TWIST neighbor (TWISTNB), U6 small nuclear RNA and mRNA degradation associated (LSM4), eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 (EEF2), ubiquitin C (UBC), CD74, and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 (HNRNP A2B1) are possible hub gene candidates in the PL group.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that innate and cellular immune responses are more loose in severe BLV infectious conditions, while the PPINs revealed that new protein interactions are necessary for oncogenesis.
