4) for 24 h. The results show that SYNCRIP expression
significantly increased with
the doses of PPV infection,
and the expression level of SYNCRIP is associated with
viral infection level (Figures

D, E). These results dem-
onstrate that the expression of SYNCRIP is upregulated
by PPV infection in vitro.
To further confirm whether
the expression of SYNCRIP is up-regulated by PPV
infection in vivo
, we examined the mRNA and protein
levels of SYNCRIP in different tissues of pregnant sows
infected by PPV. The results
show that the mRNA level
of SYNCRIP in major targeted tissues (spleen, lung, kid-
ney, ovary and uterus) increased compared to those in
the nonpathological tissues (heart, liver and brain) of
PPV-infected pregnant sows at 35 days post-infection
(dpi) (Figure
3
F). Consistently,
SYNCRIP protein lev-
els varied in different tissues of control pregnant sows
and also apparently increased in lung, kidney, ovary and
uterus of PPV-infected pregnant sows at 35
days post-
infection (Figure
3
G). Simultaneously, PPV VP2 protein
levels and viral loads were higher
in major pathological
tissues (spleen, lung, kidney, ovary and uterus) than those
in the nonpathological tissues (heart, liver and brain) of
PPV-infected pregnant sows (Figures
3
H, I). These results
demonstrate that the expression of SYNCRIP was regu-
lated in PPV-infected cells and tissues.
