PG - 380 LID - 10.1186/s12917-018-1675-x [doi] LID - 380 AB - BACKGROUND: Currently, an in vitro immunogenicity screening system for the immunological assessment of potential porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) vaccine candidates is highly desired. Thus, in the present study, two genetically divergent PRRSVs were characterized in vitro and in vivo to identify an in vitro system and immunological markers that predict the host immune response. Porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from PRRSV-negative pigs were used for in vitro immunological evaluation, and the response of these cells to VR2332c or JA142c were compared with those elicited in pigs challenged with the same viruses. RESULTS: Compared with VR2332c or mock infection, JA142c induced increased levels of type I interferons and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-1alpha/beta, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-12) in PAMs, and these elevated levels were comparable to the cytokine induction observed in PRRSV-challenged pigs. Furthermore, significantly greater numbers of activated CD4(+) T cells, type I helper T cells, cytotoxic T cells and total IFN-gamma(+) cells were observed in JA142c-challenged pigs than in VR2332c- or mock-challenged pigs. CONCLUSIONS: Based on these results, the innate immune response patterns (particularly IFN-alpha, TNF-alpha and IL-12) to specific PRRSV strains in PAMs might reflect those elicited by the same viruses in pigs.
