In vitro characterization of rNJ0612NME6 and M51R viruses in porcine monocyte-derived macrophages cell cultures (PM-MQC). (A) Multistep growth curves were performed in PM-MQC to compare virus yields between both viruses at specific times post-infection, using at initial MOI = 0.01. Differences in the transcriptional immune gene response induced by different viruses on PM-MQC, were assessed by qRT-PCR. RQ values represent relative quantities of mRNA accumulation (estimated by 2−ΔΔCt) with their corresponding SD in (B) type I, II and III IFN, (C) cytokines and chemokines, (D) Interferon regulatory factors, and transcription factors, and (E) Interferon stimulated genes. All experiments were conducted in triplicates.
