The adaptive immune response during BCoV infection of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), the bovine spleen cells, and their isolated T lymphocytes was not studied well. Our study confirmed successful BCoV infection in PBMCs and spleen T cells. This was evidenced by measuring genome copy numbers using real-time PCR, expression levels of BCoV spike and nucleocapsid proteins via western blot and immunofluorescence assays, and virus infectivity titration by plaque assay. In infected PBMCs, CD4 T-cell levels were 1.45-fold higher, and CD8 T-cell levels were 1.6-fold lower compared to sham-infected cells. Conversely, infected splenocytes showed a 0.88-fold decrease in CD4 T-cells and a 1.88-fold increase in CD8 T-cells. The cytokine gene expression analysis revealed that BCoV infection activated type 1 interferon and upregulated IL-6 expression in PBMCs and splenocytes. These findings demonstrate that BCoV successfully infects immune cells from PBMCs and spleen, inducing differential host cytokine gene expression favors virus replication.
