Metabolic profiles of fish nodavirus infection in vitro : RGNNV induced and exploited cellular fatty acid synthesis for virus infection

Abstract Red‐spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV), the causative agent of viral nervous necrosis disease, has caused high mortality and heavy economic losses in marine aquaculture worldwide. However, changes in host cell metabolism during RGNNV infection remain largely unknown. Here, the global metabolic profiling during RGNNV infection and the roles of cellular fatty acid synthesis in RGNNV infection were investigated. As the infection progressed, 71 intracellular metabolites were significantly altered in RGNNV‐infected cells compared with mock‐infected cells. The levels of metabolites involved in amino acid biosynthesis and metabolism were significantly decreased, whereas those that correlated with fatty acid synthesis were significantly up‐regulated during RGNNV infection. Among them, tryptophan and oleic acid were assessed as the most crucial biomarkers for RGNNV infection. In addition, RGNNV infection induced the formation of lipid droplets and re‐localization of fatty acid synthase (FASN), indicating that RGNNV induced and required lipogenesis for viral infection. The exogenous addition of palmitic acid (PA) enhanced RGNNV infection, and the inhibition of FASN and acetyl‐CoA carboxylase (ACC) significantly decreased RGNNV replication. Additionally, not only inhibition of palmitoylation and phospholipid synthesis, but also destruction of fatty acidβ‐oxidation significantly decreased viral replication. These data suggest that cellular fatty acid synthesis and mitochondrialβ‐oxidation are essential for RGNNV to complete the viral life cycle. Thus, it has been demonstrated for the first time that RGNNV infection in vitro overtook host cell metabolism and, in that process, cellular fatty acid synthesis was an essential component for RGNNV replication..
