Abstract
The synergy of two oncogenic retroviruses is an essential phenomenon in nature. The synergistic replication of ALV-J and REV in poultry flocks increases immunosuppression and pathogenicity, extends the tumor spectrum, and accelerates viral evolution, causing substantial economic losses to the poultry industry. However, the mechanism of synergistic replication between ALV-J and REV is still incompletely elusive. We observed that microRNA-155 targets a dual pathway, PRKCI-MAPK8 and TIMP3-MMP2, interacting with the U3 region of ALV-J and REV, enabling synergistic replication. This work gives us new targets to modulate ALV-J and REV's synergistic replication, guiding future research on the mechanism.
