Abstrakt:	The enzyme 2'-5' oligoadenylate synthase (OAS) is one of the key interferon-induced antiviral factors that act through inhibition of viral replication. In chickens, there is a single well-characterized OAS gene, oligoadenylate synthase-like (OASL) that has been shown to be upregulated after infection with various viruses. However, a deeper understanding of how chicken OASL acts against viral infection is still necessary. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that OASL short interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown would decrease the host gene expression response to the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) by impacting antiviral pathways. To assess our hypothesis, a chicken fibroblast cell line (DF-1) was infected with the NDV (LaSota strain) and OASL expression was knocked down using a specific siRNA. The level of NDV viral RNA in the cells and the expression of interferon response- and apoptosis-related genes were evaluated by quantitative PCR at 4, 8, and 24 h postinfection (hpi). Knockdown of OASL increased the level of NDV viral RNA at 4, 8, and 24 hpi (P < 0.05) and eliminated the difference between NDV-infected and noninfected cells for expression of interferon response- and apoptosis-related genes (P > 0.05). The lack of differential expression suggests that knockdown of OASL resulted in a decreased response to NDV infection. Within NDV-infected cells, OASL knockdown reduced expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1, interferon alfa receptor subunit 1, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 2, ribonuclease L, caspase 8 (CASP8) and caspase 9 (CASP9) at 4 hpi, CASP9 at 8 hpi, and caspase 3, CASP8, and CASP9 at 24 hpi (P < 0.05). We suggest that the increased NDV viral load in DF-1 cells after OASL knockdown was the result of a complex interaction between OASL and interferon response- and apoptosis-related genes that decreased host response to the NDV. Our results provide comprehensive information on the role played by OASL during NDV infection in vitro. Targeting this mechanism could aid in future prophylactic and therapeutic treatments for Newcastle disease in poultry. (Copyright © 2021 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)
