Project description:Primari effusion lymphoma are (PEL) patient-derived transformed B-cells harboring latent Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). The treatment of PEL cells with valproic acid (VA) leads to reactivation of KSHV and viral lytic replication. The aim of this project is to evaluate the effect of KSHV lytic infection on expression of the host transcriptome.

Project description:Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is caused by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and frequently also harbors Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The expression of KSHV- and, often, EBV-encoded microRNAs (miRNAs) in PELs suggests a role for these miRNAs in viral latency and lymphomagenesis. Here we report the direct and transcriptome-wide identification of miRNA target sites for all miRNAs expressed in PEL cell lines. The resulting dataset revealed that KSHV miRNAs directly target more than 2000 cellular mRNAs encoding proteins that function in pathways with relevance to KSHV pathogenesis. Moreover, ~50% of these mRNAs are also targeted by EBV miRNAs, via distinct binding sites. In addition to a known viral analog of miR-155, we show that KSHV encodes a viral miRNA that mimics cellular miR-142-3p function. In summary, these experiments identify an extensive list of mRNAs targeted by KSHV miRNAs and indicate that these are likely to strongly influence viral replication and pathogenesis. small RNA sequencing, 3 samples Ago2 (EIF2C2) PAR-CLIP, 2 samples

Project description:The RIG-I like receptors (RLRs) RIG-I and MDA5 are cytosolic RNA helicases best characterized as restriction factors for RNA viruses. However, evidence suggests RLRs participate in innate immune recognition of other pathogens, including DNA viruses. Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a human gammaherpesvirus and the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma and primary effusion lymphoma (PEL). We demonstrate that RIG-I and MDA5 restrict KSHV lytic reactivation in PEL. By performing fRIP-Seq, we define the in vivo RLR substrates and demonstrate that RIG-I and MDA5-mediated restriction is facilitated exclusively by the recognition of host-derived RNAs.

Project description:Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma caused by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infection. Currently, treatment options for patients with PEL are limited. Oncolytic viruses have been engineered as anticancer agents and have recently shown increased therapeutic promise. Similarly, lytic activation of endogenous viruses from latently infected tumor cells can also be applied as a cancer therapy. In theory, such a therapeutic strategy would induce oncolysis by viral replication, while simultaneously stimulating an immune response to viral lytic cycle antigens. We examined the combination of the FDA-approved drug ingenol-3-angelate (PEP005) with epigenetic drugs as a rational therapeutic approach for KSHV-mediated malignancies. JQ1, a bromodomain and extra terminal (BET) protein inhibitor, in combination with PEP005, not only robustly induced KSHV lytic replication, but also inhibited IL6 production from PEL cells. Using the dosages of these agents that was found to be effective in reactivating HIV (as a means to clear latent virus with highly active antiretroviral therapy), we were able to inhibit PEL growth in vitro and delay tumor growth in a PEL xenograft tumor model. KSHV reactivation was mediated by activation of NF-kB pathway by PEP005, which led to increased occupancy of RNA polymerase II onto the KSHV 33 genome. RNA-sequencing analysis further revealed cellular targets of PEP005, JQ1, and the synergistic effects of both. Thus, combination of PEP005 with a BET inhibitor may be considered as a rational therapeutic approach for the treatment of PEL.

Project description:Primary Effusion Lymphoma (PEL) is a Diffuse-Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) with poor prognosis. 100% of PEL carry the genome of Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and approximately half are co-infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). We profiled genomic aberrations in PEL using the Affymetrix 6.0 SNP array. This identified for the first time individual genes that are altered in PEL. 10/13 (76%) samples were deleted for both the fragile site tumor suppressors WWOX and FHIT. Alterations were also observed in: DERL1, ETV1, RASA4, TPK1, TRIM56 and VPS41 genes, which are yet to be characterized for their roles in cancer. Co-infection with EBV was associated with significantly fewer gross genomic aberrations. PEL could be segregated into EBV positive and EBV negative clusters on the basis of host chromosome alterations. The genomic signature of PEL cells in culture was analogous to those explanted from xenograft tumors. This suggests a model in which both host and virus contribute to the PEL phenotype. 17 samples (no replicates) were analyzed using Partek Genomic Suite software

Project description:Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma caused by Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection, which is most commonly seen in HIV-positive patients. Induction of HIV reactivation by external stimuli in the presence of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) has been examined for its efficacy to eradicate latently infected HIV. Similary, lytic activation of viruses from latently infected tumor cells with anti-cancer drugs represents an effective strategy of anti-neoplastic therapy, through the induction of oncolysis by viral replication, stimulation of immune responses to the viral lytic antigens, and intrinsic effects of cancer drugs. Here we examined the combination of PEP005 with epigenetic drugs as a rational therapeutic strategy to target both in AIDS-associated KSHV-mediated malignancies. JQ1, a bromodomain and extra terminal protein (BET) inhibitor, in combination with a FDA-approved drug, PEP005, not only robustly induced KSHV lytic replication, but also inhibited IL-6 and VEGF production from PEL cells. This combination has been proposed for use in reactivation of HIV from latently infected T-cells, and the same combination and dosage inhibited PEL growth in vitro and delayed tumor growth in a PEL xenograft tumor model. Downstream activation of NF-B by PEP005 combined with sequestration of bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) by JQ1 robustly increased occupancy of RNA polymerase II onto the KSHV genome. RNA-sequencing analysis further revealed cellular targets of PEP005, JQ1, and the synergistic effects of both. We suggest that the combination of PEP005 with JQ1 should be considered as a rational therapeutic approach for HIV-associated PEL.

Project description:Primary effusion lymphomas (PELs) are specifically associated with KSHV/HHV-8 infection, and most frequently occur in HIV-positive individuals as lymphomatous effusions in the serous cavities without a detectable solid tumor mass. Most PELs have concomitant EBV infection, suggesting that EBV is an important pathogenetic co-factor, although other as yet unidentified cofactors, such as cellular genetic alterations, are also likely to play a role. Lymphomatous effusions that lack KSHV also occur; these are frequently EBV-associated in the setting of HIV infection. Here we used gene expression profile analysis to determine the viral impact on cellular gene expression and the pathogenesis of these lymphomatous effusions. We used the Affymetrix HG-U133A microarray to analyze the gene expression profile of these effusion lymphomas (three virologic groups: KSHV-positive EBV-positive PELs, KSHV-positive EBV-negative PELs and KSHV-negative EBV-positive lymphomatous effusions). Nine cell lines derived from patients with lymphomatous effusions (three from each virologic group and each cell line was done in duplicates.) and three PEL patient samples were used in the study. Our results suggest that KSHV-positive PELs are very different from KSHV-negative lymphomatous effusions, and the genes that are differentially expressed include apoptosis regulators, cell cycle regulators, transcriptional factors and signal transduction regulators. KSHV clearly plays a dominant role in the phenotype of PEL. Within the KSHV-positive PELs, two subgroups can be identified, which were correlated with their EBV viral status. Among these genes (45 gene probes), four were regulators of the MAP kinase pathway that were up-regulated in the KSHV-positive, EBV-negative PELs, suggesting that in the absence of EBV, events that lead to the activation of the MAP kinase pathway may act as a cofactor for the development of PEL. Next we determined whether we could predict the viral status of the three primary patient cases of PEL based on the 45 gene probes that were differentially expressed in KSHV-positive cell lines according to EBV status (pt. 1: KSHV-positive, EBV-positive; Pt. 2: KSHV-positive, low proportion of EBV-positive; pt. 3: KSHV-positive EBV-negative), and we could.<br><br>Samples:<br>KSHV-positive EBV-positive cell lines: BC-1, BC-2, BC-5 <br>KSHV-positive EBV-negative cell lines: BC-3, BCBL-1, PEL-5 <br>KSHV-negative EBV-positive cell lines: IBL4, SM1, BCKN-1 <br>Patient 1: KSHV-positive, EBV-positive <br>Patient 2: KSHV-positive, EBV-positive (low number of positive cells) <br>Patient 3: KSHV-positive, EBV-negative.

Project description:Enhancers play indispensable roles in cell proliferation and survival through spatiotemporally regulating gene transcription. In addition, active enhancers and super-enhancers often produce noncoding enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) that precisely control RNA polymerase II activity. Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a human oncogenic gamma-2 herpesvirus that causes Kaposi’s sarcoma and lymphoproliferative diseases of B-cell origin such as primary effusion lymphoma (PEL). It is well characterized that KSHV utilizes host epigenetic and nuclear machineries to control the switch between two life cycles, latency and lytic replication. However, how KSHV impacts the host epigenome at different stages of viral life cycle is not well understood. Using the analysis of global run-on sequencing (GRO-seq) and chromatin-immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq), we profiled the dynamics of host transcriptional regulatory elements during latency and lytic replication of KSHV-infected PEL cells. This study showed that a number of critical host genes for KSHV latency, including MYC proto-oncogene, were under the control of super-enhancers and eRNAs that were globally repressed upon viral reactivation. A combination of circular chromosome conformation capture combined with sequencing (4C-seq), GRO-seq and ChIP-seq indicated that the eRNA-expressing super-enhance regions were located at downstream of the MYC gene in KSHV-infected PELs. Treatment of an epigenetic drug to block enhancer function or shRNA-mediated depletion of the eRNA expression significantly reduced MYC mRNA expression in KSHV-infected PELs. Finally, while cellular IRF4 acted upon the eRNAs and super-enhancers for MYC expression during latency, the KSHV viral IRF4 repressed cellular IRF4 expression upon reactivation, decreasing MYC expression and thereby, facilitating lytic replication. Taken together, these data suggest that KSHV acts as an epigenetic driver that modifies host epigenomic status by effectively regulating enhancer function upon reactivation.
