ABSTRACT
Receptors of type I interferon (IFNR) play a vital role in the antiviral immune response. However, little is known about the negative regulatory role of the IFNR. Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) is one of the most significant viruses in cultured fish, resulting in great economic losses for the aquaculture industry. In this study, two orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) cytokine receptor family B (CRFB) members, EcCRFB3 and EcCRFB4 were cloned and characterized from NNV infected grouper brain (GB) cells. The open reading frame (ORF) of EcCRFB3 consists of 852 bp encoding 283 amino acids, while EcCRFB4 has an ORF of 990 bp encoding 329 amino acids. The mRNA levels of EcCRFB3 or EcCRFB4 were significantly upregulated after NNV infection and the stimulation of poly (IC) or NNV-encoded Protein A. In addition, EcCRFB3 or EcCRFB4 overexpression facilitated NNV replication, whereas EcCRFB3 or EcCRFB4 silencing resisted NNV replication. Overexpressed EcCRFB3 or EcCRFB4 inhibited the expression of IFN-I-induced ISGs. Taken together, our research provides the first evidence in fish demonstrating the role of IFNRs to regulate the IFN signaling pathway negatively. Our findings enrich the understanding of the functions of IFNRs and reveal a novel escape mechanism of NNV.
