Overexpression of pIFITM1 inhibits PRV infection. A Immunoblotting analysis of whole cell extracts from PK15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag with antibodies against Flag. Actin served as a loading control. B Cell proliferation assay of PK15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag for 0–72 h. C Fluorescent microscopy and FACS analysis of PRV-GFP (MOI 0.01) proliferation in PK15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag for 36 h. Data are shown as mean ± SD based on three independent experiments. ***P < 0.001 determined by a two-tailed Student’s t-test. D TCID50 assay in PK15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag infected with PRV-GFP (MOI 0.1) for 24 h. Data are shown as mean ± SD based on three independent experiments. **P < 0.01 determined by two-tailed Student’s t-test. E TCID50 assay in PK15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag infected with PRV-QXX (MOI 0.1 or 1) for 24 h. Data are shown as mean ± SD based on three independent experiments. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 determined by a two-tailed Student’s t-test. F One-step growth curve of PRV-QXX (MOI 0.1) in K15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 or 24 h post-infection. Viral titer was determined by TCID50 assay. G Immunoblotting analysis of whole cell extracts from PK15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag infected with PRV-QXX (MOI 0.1) for 24 h with antibodies against PRV gE and Flag. Actin served as a loading control. H RT-qPCR analysis of PRV gB and TK mRNA expression in K15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag infected with PRV-QXX (MOI 0.1) for 24 h. Data are shown as mean ± SD based on three independent experiments. ***P < 0.001 determined by a two-tailed Student’s t-test. I RT-qPCR analysis of IFN-β, ISG15 and IL-1β mRNA expression in PK15 cells stably expressing vector or pIFITM1-Flag treated as in H. Data are shown as mean ± SD based on three independent experiments. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 determined by a two-tailed Student’s t-test.
