Evaluation of autophagic and apoptotic markers during infection with animal virus causing hemorrhagic fever in rabbits by Dominika Bębnowska, Dominika Bębnowska, Sylwia Rzeszotek, Agnieszka Kolasa, Karolina Wiśniewska, Karolina Wiśniewska, Magdalena Żabińska, Aneta Szulc, Zuzanna Cyske, Zuzanna Cyske, Karolina Pierzynowska, Karolina Pierzynowska, Aleksandra Wilk, Paulina Niedźwiedzka-Rystwej, Paulina Niedźwiedzka-Rystwej, Paulina Niedźwiedzka-Rystwej

“…This is particularly important because infection with different strains is associated with a different host immune response profile.MethodsIn this work, we analyzed the expression of selected genes and proteins involved in autophagic flux in the liver, spleen, kidney and peripheral blood, but also apoptotic cell death in the liver and peripheral blood of rabbits infected with the GI.2 strain.ResultsAs a result, we showed that autophagy is strongly activated in the liver, spleen and kidney of infected rabbits, and confirmed the activation of apoptosis in the liver.DiscussionThis study highlights the role of apoptosis and autophagy in the immune response in rabbits infected with Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2.…”
