Abstract

Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) is an important pathogen that seriously influences the productivity of small ruminants worldwide. PPRV is lymphotropic in nature and SLAM was identified as the primary receptor for PPRV and other Morbilliviruses. Many viruses have been demonstrated to engage extracellular vesicles (EVs) to facilitate their replication and pathogenesis. Here, we provide evidence that PPRV infection significantly induced the secretion levels of EVs from goat PBMC, and that PPRV-H protein carried in EVs can enhance SLAM receptor expression in the recipient cells via suppressing miR-218, a negative miRNA directly targeting SLAM gene. Importantly, EVs-mediated increased SLAM expression enhances PPRV infectivity as well as the expression of various cytokines related to SLAM signaling pathway in the recipient cells. Moreover, our data reveal that PPRV associate EVs rapidly entry into the recipient cells mainly through macropinocytosis pathway and cooperated with caveolin-and clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Taken together, our findings identify a new strategy by PPRV to enhance virus infection and escape innate immunity by engaging EVs pathway.
