    Abstract:
    Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV) and red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) are important pathogens that cause high mortality and heavy economic losses in grouper aquaculture. Interestingly, SGIV infection in grouper cells induces paraptosis-like cell death, while RGNNV infection induces autophagy and necrosis characterized morphologically by vacuolation of lysosome. Here, a comparative transcriptomic analysis was carried out to identify the different molecular events during SGIV and RGNNV infection in grouper spleen (EAGS) cells. The functional enrichment analysis of DEGs suggested that several signaling pathways were involved in CPE progression and host immune response against SGIV or RGNNV. Most of DEGs featured in the KEGG "lysosome pathway" were up-regulated in RGNNV-infected cells, indicating that RGNNV induced lysosomal vacuolization and autophagy might be due to the disturbance of lysosomal function. More than 100 DEGs in cytoskeleton pathway and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal pathway were identified during SGIV infection, providing additional evidence for the roles of cytoskeleton remodeling in cell rounding during CPE progression and MAPK signaling in SGIV induced cell death. Of note, consistent with changes at the transcriptional levels, the post-translational modifications of MAPK signaling-related proteins were also detected during RGNNV infection, and the inhibitors of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 MAPK significantly suppressed viral replication and virus induced vacuoles formation. Moreover, the majority of DEGs in interferon and inflammation signaling were obviously up-regulated during RGNNV infection, but down-regulated during SGIV infection, suggesting that SGIV and RGNNV differently manipulated host immune response in vitro. In addition, purine and pyrimidine metabolism pathways were also differently regulated in SGIV and RGNNV-infection cells. Taken together, our data will provide new insights into understanding the potential mechanisms underlying different host cell responses against fish DNA and RNA virus.
