Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is one of the most important diseases in pigs. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as an important regulator of virus-host cell interactions and miR-30c has been found to facilitate PRRSV replication. Here, we found that the interferon-alpha/beta receptor beta chain (IFNAR2) was down-regulated, while miR-30c was up-regulated during HV (a highly pathogenic type 2 PRRSV strain) and CH-1a (a classic type 2 PRRSV strain) infection. Subsequently, using bioinformatics analysis, we predicted that the IFNAR2 was targeted by miR-30c. A luciferase assay verified that the 3' UTR of IFNAR2 was targeted by miR-30c, as a mutation on either the target sequence or the miR-30c seed sequence reversed the luciferase activity. In addition, miR-30c and IFNAR2 mRNA were physically co-localized in RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). Importantly, we showed that miR-30c also impaired the induction of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) by targeting IFNAR2. Our findings further reveal the mechanism of miR-30c promoting PRRSV replication.

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the major causative agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome which leads to significant economic losses in the global swine industry. In China, there is a widespread dissemination of PCV2 infection in the pig population. Serological diagnosis of the disease is considered as an effective control measure.

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is an important swine pathogen that has caused considerable economic losses in the global swine industry. During our surveillance of pigs in Shandong, China, from 2018 to 2020, we found that the PCV2 infection rate was 7.89% (86/1090).

African swine fever (ASF) caused by the ASF virus (ASFV) is a severe and highly contagious viral disease that poses a significant threat to the global pig industry. As no vaccines or effective drugs are available to aid prevention and control, early detection is crucial. The emergence of the low-virulence ASFV strain not expressing CD2v/MGFs (ASFVΔCD2v/ΔMGFs) has been identified domestically and internationally and has even become an epidemic in China, resulting in a complex epidemic.

This work aims to explore the effect of glycolysis on the replication of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs). The changes of glucose metabolism, PRRSV protein levels, PRRSV titers, and the relative expression levels of genes and proteins in PAMs were analyzed by ELISA, qPCR, virus titration, and Western blotting after PRRSV infection. The effect of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) on PRRSV replication was subsequently assessed by specific siRNAs targeting to HIF-1α.

Article Synopsis
- Research on infectious diseases in South Korean wild boars is lacking despite a large population.
- The study examined 400 wild boars, finding high prevalence of Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV2) while other diseases like Aujeszky's Disease Virus (ADV) and Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) were less common.
- Monitoring these infectious diseases is important to protect the health of wild boar populations.
