摘要: Bluetongue virus (BTV) infects various ruminant species, posing significant threats to animal health and causing substantial economic losses to the livestock industry. Ovine type II alveolar epithelial cells (OAECIIs) play crucial roles in maintaining pulmonary structural integrity and modulating immune responses. Their dysfunction is closely associated with lung disease pathogenesis, making them important therapeutic targets. However, OAECIIs’ immunoregulatory functions and early response mechanisms during BTV infection remain unclear. To address this, we analyzed transcriptomic changes in OAECIIs following BTV-1 infection. RNA-seq revealed 1047 and 852 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at 8 and 12 h post-infection (hpi), respectively, compared to uninfected controls. Bioinformatics analysis showed significant upregulation of nucleic acid-sensing receptors, interferon-stimulating factors, inflammatory mediators, and cytokines during early infection, mediated primarily through type I interferon signaling, TNF signaling, and cytosolic DNA-sensing pathways. We identified MAD5, ZNFX1, cGAS, OAS, PKR and ZBP1 as key pattern recognition receptors in OAECIIs during BTV infection. The IFN-β, MX1/2, RSAD2 and PLSCR1 pathways mediated antiviral responses, while IL-15, CXCL10, CCL2 triggered inflammatory responses, collectively causing structural alterations through AQP1/9 and tight junction protein modulation. These findings provide critical insights into early antiviral mechanisms and cellular structural changes in OAECIIs during BTV infection, establishing a foundation for understanding pneumonia pathogenesis and developing targeted BTV therapies.
