Seneca Valley virus (SVV), a member of the Picornaviridae family, is an oncolytic RNA virus that can cause idiopathic vesicular disease and increase mortality in newborn piglets. Although research on the pathogenic characteristics, epidemiology, pathogenic mechanism, and clinical diagnosis of SVA has increased due to its emergence and prevalence, the interaction between SVA and its host lncRNA has not been fully studied. This study used qualcomm sequencing to analyze differentially expressed lncRNAs and found that during SVA infection, lncRNA 8244 was significantly down-regulated in both PK-15 cells and piglets. Further analysis through quantitative real-time PCR and dual luciferase experiments demonstrated that lncRNA8244 could compete with ssc-miR-320 to regulate the expression of CCR7. The lncRNA824-ssc-miR-320-CCR7 axis activated the TLR-mediated signaling pathway, which recognized viral molecules and induced the expression of IFN-β. These findings provide new insight into the interaction between lncRNA and SVA infection, which could lead to a better understanding of SVA pathogenesis and contribute to the prevention and control of SVA disease.
