Description
Summary:Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is associated with the endemic outbreak of fever, anorexia, and abortion in pregnant sows, resulting in an enormous economic impact on the global swine industry. Current mainstream prophylactic agents and therapies have been developed to prevent PRRSV infection; however, they have limited efficacy. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel antiviral strategies to prevent PRRSV infection and transmission. The identification of new PRRSV entry mediators, such as MYH9 and HSPA8; viral apoptotic mimicry; and TIM-induced macropinocytosis, to facilitate infection has led to a novel molecular understanding of the PRRSV infection mechanism, which can be utilized in the development of prophylactic agents and therapies for PRRSV infection. Polyphenols, complex chemical molecules with abundant biological activities derived from microorganisms and plants, have demonstrated great potential for controlling PRRSV infection via different mechanisms. To explore new possibilities for treating PRRSV infection with polyphenols, this review focuses on summarizing the pathogenesis of PRRSV, reviewing the potential antiviral mechanisms of polyphenols against PRRSV, and addressing the challenges associated with the widespread use of polyphenols.
