Abstract
Antiviral vaccines for pig diseases are essential to prevent epidemic outbreaks. However, their production is often hindered by inefficient manufacturing processes that yield lower quantities of the vaccine. To accelerate the progress of various areas of bioproduction, we have considered the necessity of enhancing viral replication efficiency by optimizing ST (swine testicular) cell lines that are commonly utilized in virus manufacturing. CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology were utilized to create IRF3 or IRF7 knockout cell lines that facilitate high-titer viral stock production. Compared to the parental cell lines, the ST IRF3/7 KO cell line displayed a compromised antiviral response to a panel of viruses (Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, Senecavirus A, Parainfluenza virus 5, and Getah virus), as evidenced by decreased expression of interferon and certain antiviral factors. The inhibition of these responses led to heightened viral replication and increased cytopathic effects, ultimately promoting apoptosis. As a result, the development of these cell lines offers a more efficient approach for biopharmaceutical companies to boost their virus production and reduce associated costs.
