AbstractRecently, multiple spillover events between domesticated poultry and wild birds have been reported for several avian viruses. This phenomenon highlights the importance of the livestock-wildlife interface in the possible emergence of novel viruses. The aim of the current study was to investigate the potential spillover and epidemiological links of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) between wild birds and domestic poultry. To this end, twenty-eight cloacal swabs were collected from four species of free-living Egyptian wild birds (i.e. mallard duck, bean goose, white-fronted goose and black-billed magpie). Genetic and phylogenetic analysis of three positive isolates revealed that the IBDV/USC-1/2019 strain clustered with previously reported very virulent IBDV (vvIBDV) Egyptian isolates. Interestingly, two other wild bird-origin isolates (i.e. IBDV/USC-2/2019 and IBDV/USC-3/2019) grouped with a vaccine strain that is being used in commercial poultry. In conclusion, our results revealed the molecular detection of vaccine and vvIBDV-like strains in Egyptian wild birds and highlighted the potential role of wild birds in IBDV epidemiology in disease-endemic regions.

ABSTRACT Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is an important member of the Birnaviridae family, causing severe immunosuppressive disease in chickens. The major capsid protein VP2 is responsible for the binding of IBDV to the host cell and its cellular tropism. In order to find proteins that potentially interact with IBDV VP2, a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) assay was conducted, and the host chicken CD74 protein was identified. Here, we investigate the role of chicken CD74 in IBDV attachment. Coimmunoprecipitation assays indicated that the extracellular domain of CD74 interacted with the VP2 proteins of multiple IBDV strains. Knockdown and overexpression experiments showed that CD74 promotes viral infectivity. Confocal assays showed that CD74 overexpression allows the attachment of IBDV and subvirus-like particles (SVPs) to the cell surface of nonpermissive cells, and quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis further confirmed the attachment function of CD74. Anti-CD74 antibody, soluble CD74, depletion of CD74 by small interfering RNA (siRNA), and CD74 knockdown in the IBDV-susceptible DT40 cell line significantly inhibited IBDV binding, suggesting a pivotal role of this protein in virus attachment. These findings demonstrate that CD74 is a novel important receptor for IBDV attachment to the chicken B lymphocyte cell line DT40. IMPORTANCE CD74 plays a pivotal role in the correct folding and functional stability of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) molecules and in the presentation of antigenic peptides, acting as a regulatory factor in the antigen presentation process. In our study, we demonstrate a novel role of CD74 during IBDV infection, showing that chicken CD74 plays a significant role in IBDV binding to target B cells by interacting with the viral VP2 protein. This is the first report demonstrating that CD74 is involved as a novel attachment receptor in the IBDV life cycle in target B cells, thus contributing new insight into host-pathogen interactions.

ABSTRACTMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression posttranscriptionally through silencing or degrading their targets, thus playing important roles in the immune response. However, the role of miRNAs in the host response against infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infection is not clear. In this study, we show that the expression of a series of miRNAs was significantly altered in DF-1 cells after IBDV infection. We found that the miRNA gga-miR-130b inhibited IBDV replication via targeting the specific sequence of IBDV segment A and enhanced the expression of beta interferon (IFN-β) by targeting suppressors of cytokine signaling 5 (SOCS5) in host cells. These findings indicate that gga-miR-130b-3p plays a crucial role in host defense against IBDV infection.IMPORTANCEThis work shows that gga-miR-130b suppresses IBDV replication via directly targeting the viral genome and cellular SOCS5, the negative regulator for type I interferon expression, revealing the mechanism underlying gga-miR-130-induced inhibition of IBDV replication. This information will be helpful for the understanding of how host cells combat pathogenic infection by self-encoded small RNA and furthers our knowledge of the role of microRNAs in the cell response to viral infection.

Genome replication is a critical step in virus life cycles. Here, we analyzed the role of the infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) VP3, a major component of IBDV ribonucleoprotein complexes, on the regulation of VP1, the virus-encoded RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). Data show that VP3, as well as a peptide mimicking its C-terminal domain, efficiently stimulates the ability of VP1 to replicate synthetic single-stranded RNA templates containing the 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs) from the IBDV genome segments.
