Proteomic alteration of equine monocyte-derived macrophages infected with equine infectious anemia virus.
Abstract: Similar to the well-studied viruses human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) is another member of the Lentivirus genus in the family Retroviridae. Previous studies revealed that interactions between EIAV and the host resulted in viral evolution in pathogenicity and immunogenicity, as well as adaptation to the host. Proteomic analysis has been performed to examine changes in protein expression and/or modification in host cells infected with viruses and has revealed useful information for virus-host interactions. In this study, altered protein expression in equine monocyte-derived macrophages (eMDMs, the principle target cell of EIAV in vivo) infected with the EIAV pathogenic strain EIAV(DLV34) (DLV34) was examined using 2D-LC-MS/MS coupled with the iTRAQ labeling technique. The expression levels of 210 cellular proteins were identified to be significantly upregulated or downregulated by infection with DLV34. Alterations in protein expression were confirmed by examining the mRNA levels of eight selected proteins using quantitative real-time reverse-transcription PCR, and by verifying the levels of ten selected proteins using parallel reaction monitoring (PRM). Further analysis of GO and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG)-Pathway enrichment demonstrated that these differentially expressed proteins are primarily related to the biological processes of oxidative phosphorylation, protein folding, RNA splicing, and ubiquitylation. Our results can facilitate a better understanding of the host response to EIAV infection and the cellular processes required for EIAV replication and pathogenesis.

The research is about investigating how equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV), similar to HIV and SIV, affects the protein expression in equine monocyte-derived macrophages (eMDMs), the main target cells of EIAV in the body. Using multiple techniques, 210 proteins were identified to have altered expression levels, contributing to our understanding of EIAV’s impact and providing insight into virus-host interactions.
Methodology and Key Findings
- The researchers utilized a combination of biochemical techniques including 2D-LC-MS/MS (a type of mass spectrometry) and iTRAQ labeling (a chemical labeling method) to study the alterations in protein expression in eMDMs infected with EIAV.
- These methodologies identified 210 proteins whose expression levels were either upregulated (increased) or downregulated (decreased) due to EIAV infection.
- To validate these results, the researchers used quantitative real-time reverse-transcription PCR to analyze the mRNA levels of eight selected proteins. mRNA levels usually correlate with protein production, so this allowed them to confirm the altered protein expression.
- They also used parallel reaction monitoring (PRM), another form of mass spectrometry, to verify the levels of ten additional selected proteins.
Significance and Implications
- Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG)-Pathway enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed proteins are primarily involved in several biological processes. These include oxidative phosphorylation (an energy production process), protein folding (how a protein shape achieves its functional conformation), RNA splicing (processing of pre-mRNA), and ubiquitylation (a process regulating protein degradation).
- This information provides a greater understanding of the cellular mechanisms impacted by EIAV and the processes utilized by this virus for its replication and pathogenesis.
- By understanding these virus-host interactions, therapeutic targets can be identified for treating diseases caused by lentiviruses like EIAV. Furthermore, this research may also provide valuable insight for diseases caused by other similar viruses, such as HIV-1 and SIV.
