Abstract

CD163 and sialoadhesin (SN) were reported as two essential receptors for the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus. To investigate the relationship between these two genes and porcine immunity, we assigned porcine CD163 and SN respectively to SSC5q21-q24 and SSC17q23 by IMpRH. Expression profiles revealed that CD163 and SN were ubiquitously expressed in ten tissues, and were expressed highly in lymph gland, spleen and liver, which implied the potential functions of CD163 and SN in immunity. Moreover, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) c.3534C>T was found in 3′-UTR of the CD163 gene and association analysis showed that this gene was significantly associated with the IgG content in blood (P < 0.05). A novel missense mutation c.878A>G located in exon4 of the SN gene which caused the amino acid transition from histidine to arginine was detected, and it was significantly associated with the WBC count in the peripheral blood (P < 0.05). These results provided fundamental evidence for CD163 and SN as two functional candidate genes affecting immunity in pigs.
