Genome-Wide Analysis of Long Noncoding RNA Profiles in Seneca Valley Virus-Infected PK15 Cells.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to play key roles in various biological processes. However, the contributions of lncRNAs to Seneca Valley virus (SVV) infection and host defense remain largely unknown. In this study, differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in SVV-infected PK15 cells were detected by genome-wide analysis. A total of 14,127 lncRNAs and 63,562 mRNAs were identified, and 1,780 lncRNAs were differentially expressed. The functional prediction of SVV-induced lncRNAs showed high associations with biological regulation and many immunity-related signaling pathways, including the B-cell receptor pathway, RIG-I-like receptor signaling pathway, and NF-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway. We next screened lncRNAs and target genes related to immune response pathways and further demonstrated their differential expression in SVV-infected PK15 cells. Our study investigated the function of lncRNAs involved in SVV infection and provided new insight into the pathogenic mechanisms of SVV.
