Project description:Natural SIV infection of sooty mangabeys (SMs) does not progress to disease despite chronic virus replication. In contrast to pathogenic SIV infection of rhesus macaques (RMs), chronic SIV infection of SMs is characterized by low immune activation. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this phenotype, we longitudinally assessed host gene expression in SIV-infected SMs and RMs. We found that acute SIV infection of SMs is consistently associated with a robust innate immune response, including widespread up-regulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). Our findings indicate that active immune regulatory mechanisms, rather than intrinsically attenuated innate immune responses, underlie the low immuneactivation of chronically SIV-infected SMs. We infected 5 SMs with SIVsmm and assessed their gene expression in RNA derived from whole blood at 3,7,10,14,30 and 180 days post-infection using Rhesus Affymetrix GeneChips. As a comparison, we also analyzed gene expression in 4 RMs infected with SIVsmm, and 8 RMs infected with SIVmac239, a classical pathogenic SIV.

Project description:Unlike HIV infection, which progresses to AIDS absent suppressive anti-retroviral therapy (ART), nonpathogenic infections in natural hosts, such African green monkeys (AGMs), are characterized by a lack of gut microbial translocation and robust secondary lymphoid Natural Killer (NK) cell responses resulting in absence of chronic inflammation and limited SIV dissemination in lymph nodes (LN) B-cell-follicles, respectively. In a pathogenic infection model (i.e. ART-treated, SIVmac239-infected rhesus macaques; RMs), sequential Interleukin (IL)-21 and interferon (IFN)-alpha therapy generated terminally-differentiated blood NK cells (NKG2a/clowCD16+) with potent HLA-E-restricted activity in response to SIV-ENV peptides in contrast to control RMs, where less differentiated, IFN-gamma+ NK cells predominated. The frequency and cytolytic activity of NKG2a/clowCD16+ NK cells correlated with a reduction of replication-competent SIV in LN during ART and viral rebound delay following analytical treatment interruption. These data demonstrate that AGM-like NK cell differentiation profiles can be rescued in RMs to promote viral clearance in tissues.

Project description:Infections with mycobacteria, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) BCG, are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality for HIV-infected persons. In contrast to HIV, SIV infection of sooty mangabeys is nonpathogenic, characterized by a lack of clinical disease including an absence of opportunistic infections. The goal of this study was to identify innate immune responses to M. bovis BCG maintained during nonpathogenic lentiviral infections, through a comparison of functional responses during pathogenic HIV or nonpathogenic SIV infections. Monocytes were evaluated for their ability to express key anti-mycobacterial cytokines TNF-α and IL-12 following a six-hour ex vivo BCG exposure. While HIV-infection was associated with a decreased percentage of IL-12-producing monocytes, nonpathogenic SIV-infection was associated with an increased percentage of monocytes producing both cytokines. Gene expression analysis of PBMC following ex vivo BCG exposure identified differential expression of NK cell-related genes and several cytokines, including IFN-γ and IL-23, between HIV-infected and control subjects. In contrast, SIV-infected and uninfected-control mangabeys exhibited no significant differences in gene expression after BCG exposure. Finally, differential gene expression patterns were identified between species, with mangabeys exhibiting lower IL-6 and higher IL-17 in response to BCG when compared to humans. Overall, this comparison of immune responses to M. bovis BCG identified unique immune signatures (involving cytokines IL-12, TNF-α, IL-23, IL-17, and IL-6) that are altered during HIV, but maintained or increased during nonpathogenic SIV infections. These unique cytokine and transcriptome signatures provide insight into the differential immune responses to Mycobacteria during pathogenic HIV-infection of humans or nonpathogenic SIV-infection of mangabeys.

Project description:A mutant simian immunodeficiency (SIVmac239) virus, found to be selected within chronically SIV-infected Burmese rhesus monkeys with relatively enhanced SIV-specific antibody responses, was reconstituted as a molecular clone. The virus (SIV Nef G63E) was then subjected to a preliminary analysis for their intracellular signal transduction and gene expression modulation patterns (as compared with wild type SIVmac239) within infected CD4+ T cells. Analysis implicated that the mutant virus had a moderately enhanced cytopathic phenotype. A SIV mutation (SIVmac239 Nef G63E) found to be enriched in rhesus monkeys with enhanced SIV-specific antibody responses was reconstituted on a pBR-based SIV molecular clone pBRmac239. HSC-F cynomolgus macaque central memory Th2-like T cells were infected with mutant and wild type SIVmac239 at MOI 5 in triplicate along with uninfected controls (i.e. a total of 9 samples) for 24 hours and subjected to analysis of their gene expression patterns.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms underlying HIV-induced inflammation remain incompletely defined although they associate with morbidity and progression to AIDS. Here we used non-human primate models of pathogenic and nonpathogenic simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection in respectively macaques and African green monkeys. We longitudinally analyzed DNA methylation changes in CD4+ T cells from lymph node and blood using species-compatible probes on human 450K methylation BeadArrays. Selected identified sites were validated using bisulfite-pyrosequencing of an independent cohort of uninfected, viremic and SIV controller macaques. Tissue- and species-specific DNA methylation changes were observed after SIV infection. The most affected genes in pathogenic SIV infection were related to metabolic pathways and Th1 signaling. SIV-infected macaques displayed increased insulin sensitivity early in the chronic phase of infection, which correlated with T cell activation. Moreover, DNA methylation changes in the Th1 pathway were associated with altered gene expression. Out of the 11 selected genes for validation, six genes showed differential methylation in viremic and uninfected macaques. In contrast, no significant differences were found between uninfected and SIV-controller macaques. In summary, pathogenic SIV infection associates with DNA methylation changes in genes related to metabolism and immune-regulation.

Project description:Systemic vaccination with the attenuated virus SIVmac239-∆Nef provides sterilizing or partial protection to rhesus monkeys challenged with WT SIV strains, providing important opportunities to study key immunological components of a protective host response. Here we show that intravenous vaccination with SIVmac239-∆Nef provides two potentially crucial immunological barriers localized at mucosal surfaces that correlate with the vaccine’s protective effects against WT SIVmac251 vaginal challenge: 1) a conditioned and coordinated response from the mucosal epithelium that blunts the early inflammatory and chemotactic signalling cascade that aids virus propagation and expansion; 2) early on-site generation/diversification of SIV-specific Abs from ectopic germinal center-like lymphoid aggregates. This unique host response to WT SIVmac251 in the female reproductive tract of SIVmac239-∆Nef-vaccinated animals points to a multi-layered strategy for a protective host response during immunodeficiency virus exposure—rapid induction of humroal immunity at mucosal surfaces without the deleterious inflammatory side effects tied to innate recognition of virus. This vaccine-induced host response highlights potential key protective mechanisms needed for an effective HIV vaccine Total RNA was isolated from the cervix of 17 Indian Rhesus macaques (3 uninfected animals; 5 unvaccinated animals 4-5 days post vaginal exposure with SIVmac251; 4 SIVmac239-∆Nef-vaccinated animals before challenge; 5 SIVmac239-∆Nef-vaccinated animals 4-5 days post vaginal exposure with SIVmac251) and prepared for hybridization on Affymetrix GeneChip Rhesus Macaque Genome Arrays. Replicate arrays were performed for a number of the samples to minimize assay noise and significant host genes altered during virus exposure in female reproductive tract tissue were identified by their associated q-values (< 0.2) and fold change in expression (> 1.2).
