Novel Duck Orthoreovirus Induces Ferroptosis in HD11 Cells by Hijacking Cellular Iron Metabolism and Promoting Iron Accumulation
Hongzhi Wang, Di Lei, Chenchen Jiang, Boyi Xu, Yi Tang, Rendong Fang
TL;DR
A new duck virus causes cell death in immune cells by increasing iron levels, leading to severe spleen damage and weakened immunity in ducks.
Contribution
First study to show NDRV induces ferroptosis by manipulating iron metabolism in macrophages.
Findings
NDRV infection increases intracellular Fe2+ levels and triggers ferroptosis in HD11 cells.
NDRV upregulates TfR1 to enhance iron uptake and promote iron accumulation.
The study reveals a novel mechanism of NDRV-induced immune cell injury and splenic necrosis.
Abstract
Novel duck orthoreovirus (NDRV) infection induces severe splenic necrosis in ducks, resulting in a cascade of detrimental consequences, including immunosuppression, secondary infections, and diminished vaccine efficacy. Avian orthoreovirus (ARV) exhibits high tropism for macrophages, with splenic macrophages being identified as the primary target cells of NDRV. Although ferroptosis has been implicated in this pathological process, the molecular mechanism underlying NDRV‐induced cellular damage remains poorly elucidated. In this study, an in vitro model of NDRV infection was established using HD11 cells to systematically investigate its effect on ferroptosis and the associated mechanisms. Our results indicate that NDRV infection triggers ferroptosis and markedly elevates intracellular Fe2+ levels. Mechanistically, NDRV upregulates transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1), thereby enhancing iron…
