Project description:The hypoxia signaling pathway controls hypoxia adaptation and tolerance of organisms, which is regulated by multiple mechanisms. Viral infection elicits various pathophysiological responses in the host. However, whether viral infection can affect the hypoxia response is not yet fully understood. In this study, we found that Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) infection in zebrafish caused symptoms similar to those in zebrafish under hypoxic conditions. Further assays indicated that SVCV infection activated the hypoxia signaling pathway in zebrafish. In addition, SVCV infection caused increased glycolysis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in cells. Mechanistically, SVCV-G protein interacted with hif1α-a/b and attenuated their K48-linked polyubiquitination, leading to their stabilization and subsequent enhancement of target gene expression. Moreover, treatment with the HIF1α-specific inhibitor PX478 enhanced the antiviral ability against SVCV infection in zebrafish and zebrafish cells. This study reveals a relationship between SVCV infection and the hypoxia signaling pathway in fish and provides a strategy for reducing the damage of viral disease in the aquaculture industry.ImportanceViral infection triggers various pathophysiological responses in the host.

Project description:Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) has a broad fish host spectrum and is responsible for a disease that generally affects juvenile fishes with a mortality rate of up to 90%. In the absence of treatments or vaccines against SVCV, the search for prophylactic or therapeutic solutions is thus relevant, particularly to identify solutions compatible with mass vaccination. In addition to being a threat to aquaculture and ecosystems, SVCV is a unique pathogen to study virus-host interactions in the zebrafish model. Establishing the first reverse genetics system for SVCV and the design of recombinant SVCV (rSVCV) expressing fluorescent or bioluminescent proteins adds a new dimension for the study of these interactions using innovative imaging techniques. The infection by bath immersion of zebrafish larvae with rSVCV expressing mCherry allows us to define the first SVCV replication sites and the host innate immune responses using different transgenic lines of zebrafish. The fins were found as the main initial sites of infection in both zebrafish and carp, its natural host. Hence, new insights into the physiopathology of SVCV infection have been described. We report that neutrophils are recruited at the sites of infection and persist up to the death of the animal leading to an uncontrolled inflammation correlated with the expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL1β. Tissue damage was observed at the site of initial replication, a likely consequence of virus-induced injury or the pro-inflammatory response. Interestingly, SVCV infection by bath immersion triggers a persistent pro-inflammatory response rather than activation of the antiviral IFN signaling pathway as observed following intravenous injection, highlighting the importance of the route of infection on the progression of pathogenicity. Thus, this model of zebrafish larvae infection by rSVCV offers new perspectives to study in detail virus-host interactions and to discover new prophylactic or therapeutic solutions.

Project description:We describe here transcripts induced after infection of zebrafish with Spring Viremia Carp Virus (SVCV). Two days after infection, differentially expressed transcript levels from selected immune-related zebrafish genes were studied in internal organs (pooled spleen, head kidney). Also, transcripts from resistant fishes to viral infection one month after inoculation were studied. Three different experiments were performed to get three biological replicates. Fishes were divided into two groups in each experiment. First group was infected by immersion with SVCV 10^7 pfu/ml, second group was used as a control of non-infected fishes. 6 fishes per group were sacrificed two days post infection, whereas the rest of the infected fishes from the three experiments were maintained for 30 days in the aquariums and then survivors (six for experiment) were sacrificed. This submission includes three biological replicate groups for the non-infected fish and the two days post-infected fish, and two biological replicate groups for the 30 days post-infected fish.

Project description:Cowpox virus infection induces interleukin-10 (IL-10) production from mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) or cells of the mouse macrophage line (RAW264.7) at about 1800 pg/ml, whereas infections with vaccinia virus (strains WR or MVA) induced much less IL-10. Similarly, in vivo, IL-10 levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids of mice infected with cowpox virus were significantly higher than those after vaccinia virus infection. However, after intranasal cowpox virus infection, although dendritic and T-cell accumulations in the lungs of IL-10 deficient mice were greater than those in wild-type mice, weight-loss and viral burdens were not significantly different. IL-10 deficient mice were more susceptible than wild-type mice to re-infection with cowpox virus even though titers of neutralizing antibodies and virus-specific CD8 T cells were similar between IL-10 deficient and wild-type mice. Greater bronchopneumonia in IL-10 deficient mice than wild-type mice suggests that IL-10 contributes to the suppression of immunopathology in the lungs.

Project description:Because fin base is supposed to be the entry zone of some fish virus, we wanted to know which transcripts are induced after infection of zebrafish with Spring Viremia Carp Virus (SVCV). Two days after infection, differentially expressed transcript levels from selected immune-related zebrafish genes were studied in zebrafish fins. Also transcripts from resistant fishes to viral infection one month after inoculation were studied.

Project description:Although spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) can cause high mortalities in common carp, a commercial vaccine is not available for worldwide use. Here, we report a DNA vaccine based on the expression of the SVCV glycoprotein (G) which, when injected in the muscle even at a single low dose of 0.1 µg DNA/g of fish, confers up to 100% protection against a subsequent bath challenge with SVCV. Importantly, to best validate vaccine efficacy, we also optimized a reliable bath challenge model closely mimicking a natural infection, based on a prolonged exposure of carp to SVCV at 15°C. Using this optimized bath challenge, we showed a strong age-dependent susceptibility of carp to SVCV, with high susceptibility at young age (3 months) and a full resistance at 9 months. We visualized local expression of the G protein and associated early inflammatory response by immunohistochemistry and described changes in the gene expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and antiviral genes in the muscle of vaccinated fish. Adaptive immune responses were investigated by analyzing neutralizing titers against SVCV in the serum of vaccinated fish and the in vitro proliferation capacity of peripheral SVCV-specific T cells. We show significantly higher serum neutralizing titers and the presence of SVCV-specific T cells in the blood of vaccinated fish, which proliferated upon stimulation with SVCV. Altogether, this is the first study reporting on a protective DNA vaccine against SVCV in carp and the first to provide a detailed characterization of local innate as well as systemic adaptive immune responses elicited upon DNA vaccination that suggest a role not only of B cells but also of T cells in the protection conferred by the SVCV-G DNA vaccine.

Project description:IgM antibody diversity induced by viral infection in teleost fish sera remains largely unexplored despite several studies performed on their transcript counterparts in lymphoid organs. Here, IgM binding to microarrays containing ~20,000 human proteins was used to study sera from carp (Cyprinus carpio) populations having high titers of viral neutralization in vitro after surviving an experimental infection with cyprinid herpes virus 3 (CyHV-3). The range of diversity of the induced antibodies was unexpectedly high, showing CyHV-3 infection-dependent, non-specific IgM-binding activity of a ~20-fold wider variety than that found in sera from healthy carp (natural antibodies) with no anti-CyHV-3 neutralization titers. An inverse correlation between the IgM-binding levels in healthy versus infection-survivor/healthy ratios suggests that an infection-dependent feed back-like mechanism may control such clonal expansion. Surprisingly, among the infection-expanded levels, not only specific anti-frgIICyHV-3 and anti-CyHV-3 IgM-binding antibodies but also antibodies recognizing recombinant fragment epitopes from heterologous fish rhabdoviruses were detected in infection-survivor carp sera. Some alternative explanations for these findings in lower vertebrates are discussed.

Project description:The common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) is an important farmed species worldwide. Mucosal-associated lymphoid tissues play an essential role in the fight against pathogen infection. Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) poses a serious threat to the common carp aquaculture industry. Understanding the molecular mechanisms driving mucosal immune responses to SVCV infection is critical. In this study, the mucosal tissues (gills, foregut and hindgut) were collected from normal and infected fishes for transcriptome analysis. A total of 932,378,600 clean reads were obtained, of which approximately 80% were successfully mapped to the common carp genome. 577, 1,054 and 1,014 differential expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the gills, foregut and hindgut, respectively. A quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay indicated that the DEGs expression in the foregut following SVCV infection was consistent with the transcriptome results. Among them, two key genes of the retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptor family, melanoma-differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) and laboratory of genetics and physiology 2 (LGP2) (i.e., CcMDA5 and CcLGP2), underwent further analysis. Overexpression of CcMDA5 or CcLGP2 increased phosphorylation of TANK-binding kinase 1 and interferon regulatory factor 3 and the expression of interferon-1 (ifn-1), myxovirus resistance (mx), viperin and interferon-stimulated gene 15 (isg15), and inhibited SVCV replication in epithelioma papulosum cyprini cells. Furthermore, CcLGP2 significantly upregulated the CcMDA5-induced ifn-1 mRNA expression and the activation of the ifn-1 promoter. Finally, confocal microscopy and coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that CcLGP2 colocalizes and interacts with CcMDA5 via the C-terminal regulatory domain. This study provides essential gene resources for understanding the fish immune response to SVCV infection and sheds light on the potential role of fish LGP2 in the MDA5 regulation.

Project description:Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) is highly contagious and lethal to most cyprinid fish, causing serious economic losses to the carp aquaculture industry. Although DNA vaccines can generate long-term humoral and cellular immune responses, which provide protective immunity against SVCV, the major drawback of DNA vaccines is their low immunogenicity in clinical tests. Here, we construct a dual-targeted polymer DNA vaccine delivery platform (MCS-PCHG) by using mannosylated chitosan to encapsulate the poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide)-loaded DNA vaccine containing the heavy-chain CH3 region (CH3) of common carp IgM and the antigenic domain (G131c). The developed nanovaccine delivery platform showed good biocompatibility in vivo and in vitro. With the modification of the mannose moiety and the modification of CH3, the constructed MCS-PCHG could efficiently activate the maturation of antigen-presenting cells. Moreover, we observe significantly high level of immune-related genes expression, serum antigen-specific IgM, SVCV-neutralizing antibody titers in fish vaccinated with MCS-PCHG. Next, the protective efficacy of MCS-PCHG was further evaluated by challenge test. The highest survival rate (ca. 84%) was observed in fish vaccinated with MCS-PCHG after challenging with SVCV. This study presents a novel design for smart, dual-targeted polymer nanoparticles, which are inherently biocompatible, promising for targeted vaccine delivery. IMPORTANCE Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) affects global cyprinid fish farming industry, with no available commercial vaccine. Herein, we developed a dual-targeting polymer nanovaccine (MCS-PCHG) by using mannose and common carp IgM heavy chain CH3 region (CH3) as antigen presenting cell (APCs) recognition moiety, attaining the effective delivery of antigen. This dual-targeting polymer vaccine can efficiently activate the APCs, and further induce robust and durable adaptive immune response with good protection against SVCV infection. Our study provides valuable theoretical basis for developing efficient vaccine against infectious diseases in aquaculture.
