Project description:The 2013-2016 Ebola Zaire virus (EBV) outbreak in West Africa resulted in over 28,000 cases and 11,000 deaths. Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a highly virulent systemic disease with a high case fatality rate of ~ 50%. EVD results in hemorrhagic fever marked by an exaggerated systemic inflammatory response, and impaired vascular and coagulation systems. The immune response of patients who either survived or died is characterized by strong differences. Notably, fatalities showed a diminished capacity to mount an appropriate immune response, resulting in high viremia and increased pro-inflammatory cytokine production. In this study, we analyzed 38 sequential samples collected from 12 patients: 8 survivors and 4 fatalities. Our analytical strategy combined three protein-based platforms covering three different fractions of the plasma proteome: the undepleted classical plasma proteome, the depleted plasma proteome, and cytokines/chemokines, using LC/MS- and antibody-based assays, resulting in over 1000 quantified host and pathogen proteins. For depletion of the most abundant plasma proteins, we advanced a perchloric acid-based precipitation method. This method is low cost, high-throughput and robust.

Project description:Although viral infection is thought to be associated with subacute thyroiditis and probably with autoimmune thyroid disease, possible changes in thyroid function during the prodromal period of infection or subclinical infection remain largely unknown. Recently, it was shown that pathogen-associated molecular patterns stimulate Toll-like receptors (TLR) and activate innate immune responses by producing type I interferons (IFN). Using a human thyroid follicle culture system, in which de novo synthesized thyroid hormones are released into the culture medium under physiological concentrations of hTSH, we studied the effects of polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (Poly(I:C)), a chemical analog of viral double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), on TSH-induced thyroid function. Thyrocytes expressed ligands for dsRNA (TLR 3, CD14, and RIG-1) comparable to the TSH receptor. DNA microarray and real-time PCR analyses revealed that dsRNA increased the expression of mRNA for TLR3, IFN-g, interferon-regulating factors, proinflammatory cytokines, and class I MHC, whereas genes associated with thyroid hormonogenesis (NIS, peroxidase, deiodinases) were suppressed. In accordance to these data, Poly(I:C) suppressed TSH-induced 125I uptake and hormone synthesis dose-dependently, accompanied by a decrease in the ratio of 125I-T3/125I-T4 released into the culture medium, whereas peptidoglycan, lipopolysaccharides, or unmethylated CpG DNA, ligands for TLR2, TLR4, and TLR9, respectively, had no significant effect. These inhibitory effects of Poly(I:C) were not blocked by a neutralizing antibody against TLR3 and an anti-IFN alpha/beta receptor antibody. These in vitro findings suggest that when thyrocytes are infected with certain viruses, dsRNA formed intracellularly in thyrocytes may be a cause for thyroid dysfunction, leading to development of autoimmune thyroiditis.
