Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), a highly contagious disease, has been constantly causing huge economic losses all over the world. PRRS virus (PRRSV) infection results in immunosuppression and IL-10 up-regulation. The relationship between them is still in dispute. Previous studies demonstrated the protein of PRRSV nucleocapsid (N) protein is able to up-regulate IL-10, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, the expression kinetics of IL-10 up regulation induced by PRRSV N protein were analyzed in immortalized porcine alveolar macrophages (PAM5). N protein induced IL-10 expression in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Inhibition experiments of signaling pathways suggested NF-kappa B and p38 MAPK pathways are both involved in N protein induced IL-10 up-regulation. Besides, the integrity of N protein is essential for significant IL-10 up regulation. This research is beneficial for further understanding of the interplay between PRRSV and host immune system.(C) 2017 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
