Autophagy Benefits the Replication of Newcastle Disease Virus in Chicken Cells and Tissues

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that NDV infection induced steady-state autophagy in chicken-derived DF-1 cells and in primary chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells, evident through increased double- or single-membrane vesicles, the accumulation of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-LC3 dots, and the conversion ofLC3-I to LC3-II.
Journal ArticleDOI

eIF2α-CHOP-BCl-2/JNK and IRE1α-XBP1/JNK signaling promote apoptosis and inflammation and support the proliferation of Newcastle disease virus

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that the induction of eIF2α-CHOP-BCL-2/JNK and IRE1α-XBP1/J NK signaling cascades promote apoptosis and cytokines secretion, and these signaling cascading support NDV proliferation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of anti-viral stress granule formation by coronavirus endoribonuclease nsp15 ensures efficient virus replication.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrated that the endoribonuclease nsp15 of the Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV) interferes with the formation of antiviral hub SGs by regulating the accumulation of viral dsRNA and by antagonizing the activation of PKR, eventually ensuring productive virus replication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Newcastle Disease Virus V Protein Degrades Mitochondrial Antiviral Signaling Protein To Inhibit Host Type I Interferon Production via E3 Ubiquitin Ligase RNF5.

TL;DR: A novel role of NDV V protein is revealed in targeting MAVS to inhibit cellular IFN production, which reinforces the fact that the virus orchestrates the cellular antiviral response to its own benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of the PKR/eIF2α signaling cascade inhibits replication of Newcastle disease virus

TL;DR: In insight into NDV-host interactions for the development of candidate antiviral strategies, protein kinase R is activated by dsRNA generated by NDV infection and inhibits NDV replication by eIF2α phosphorylation.
