ABSTRACT
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) can infect all ages of pigs, particularly newborn piglets with a mortality almost reaching to 80-100%, causing significant economic losses to the global pig industry. The mucosal immune response is crucial for PEDV prevention, in which specific dendritic cells (DCs) and differentiated T cells play vital roles. In this study, CD103+DCs were differentiated successfully with retinoic acid (RA) treatment in vitro. PEDV could not replicate efficiently in differentiated CD103+DCs but could promote maturation of CD103+DCs by up-regulating the expression of SLA-DR, CD1a, CD86, and cytokines of IL-1ß and IL-10. In addition, PEDV-infected CD103+DCs and CD4+T cells were co-cultured, and the results showed that the differentiation of CD4+T cells toward Th1, Tfh, and Treg, but not Th2. These results demonstrate that PEDV-infected CD103+DCs could promote the differentiation of CD4+T cells, which provided the basis for further study of mucosal response induced by PEDV via CD103+DCs.
