The Antiviral Small-Interfering RNA Pathway Induces Zika Virus Resistance in Transgenic Aedes aegypti

ABSTRACT: We have generated transgenic Ae. aegypti that express a ZIKV-specific inverted repeat RNA intended to trigger the mosquito siRNA anti-viral immune pathway. To confirm that the transgene is expressed and processed, we performed small RNA sequencing on both Higgs White Eye (HWE) & anti-NS3/4A-ZIKV transgenic Ae. aegypti 24 hours post-bloodmeal

Global transcriptome analysis of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in response to Zika virus infection

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) of the Flaviviridae family is a recently emerged mosquito-borne virus that has been implicated in the surge of the number of microcephaly instances in south America. The virus is transmitted mainly by the mosquito Aedes aegypti that also vectors dengue virus. Considering rather recent rapid spread of the virus and its declaration as a global health emergency by the World Health Organization, little is known about the interactions of the virus with the mosquito vector. In this study, we investigated the transcriptome profiles of whole Ae. aegypti mosquitoes in response to ZIKV infection at 2, 7 and 14 days post-infection using deep sequencing. Results showed a large number of transcripts were altered at each time point following infection, but 18 transcripts were commonly changed at the three time points. The outcomes provide a basic understanding of Ae. aegypti responses to ZIKV and help determining host factors involved in replication or anti-viral response against the virus.

Effect of the noncoding RNA produced by ZIKA virus (ZIKV) on expression of Aedes aegypti genes

Project description:We report that ZIKV noncoding RNA (sfRNA) affect expression of mosquito genes upon ZIKV infection. We constructed sfRNA-deficient ZIKV mutant (xrRNA2') and conducted transcriptome-wide gene expression profiling of mosquitos infected with WT and xrRNA2' viruses. We found that sfRNA inhibits apoptosis in the infected tissues of Ae. aegypti by altering expression of mosquito genes that control cell death and survival.

Interspecies isobaric labeling-based proteomics reveals protein changes in the ovary of Aedes aegypti co-infected with ZIKV and Wolbachia

Project description:Zika is a vector-borne disease caused by an arbovirus (ZIKV) and overwhelmingly transmitted by Ae. aegypti. This disease is linked to adverse fetal outcomes, mostly microcephaly in newborns, and other clinical aspects such as acute febrile illness and neurologic complications, for example Guillain-Barré syndrome. One of the actual most promising strategies to mitigate arbovirus transmission involves releasing Ae. aegypti mosquitoes carrying the maternally inherited endosymbiont bacteria Wolbachia pipientis. The presence of Wolbachia is associated with a reduced susceptibility to arboviruses and a fitness cost in mosquito life-history traits as fecundity and fertility. However, the mechanisms by which Wolbachia influences metabolic pathways leading to differences in egg production remains poorly known. In order to investigate the impact of co-infections on the reproductive tract of the mosquito, we applied a quantitative proteomic strategy based on an isobaric labeling to investigate the influence of Wolbachia wMel and ZIKV infection in Ae. aegypti ovaries. For what we know, this is the most complete proteome of Ae. aegypti ovaries reported so far, with a total of 3913 proteins identified. We were able to quantify a total of 1044 Wolbachia proteins in complex sample tissue of Ae. aegypti ovary employing mass spectrometry-based quantitative methods. Furthermore, we describe and discuss proteins and pathways altered in Ae. aegypti during ZIKV infections, Wolbachia infections, co-infection Wolbachia/ZIKV, and compared with no infection, focusing on immune and reproductive aspects of Ae. aegypti.

Comprehensive quantitative proteome analysis of Aedes aegypti to interrogate Wolbachia pipientis and Zika virus interference phenomenon

Project description:Zika virus is a global public health emergency due to its association with microcephaly, Guillain-Barré syndrome, neuropathy, and myelitis in children and adults. A total of 87 countries have had evidence of autochthonous mosquito-borne transmission of Zika virus, distributed across four continents, and no antivirus therapy or vaccines are available. Therefore, several strategies have been developed to target the main mosquito vector, Aedes aegypti, to reduce the burden of different arboviruses. Among such strategies, the use of the maternally-inherited endosymbiont Wolbachia pipientis has been applied successfully to reduce virus susceptibility and decrease transmission. However, the mechanisms by which Wolbachia orchestrate resistance to ZIKV infection remains to be elucidated. In this study, we apply quantitative isobaric mass spectrometry-based proteomics to quantify proteins and identify pathways altered during ZIKV infection; Wolbachia infection; co-infection with Wolbachia/ZIKV in the Ae. aegypti. We show that Wolbachia regulates proteins involved in ROS production, regulates humoral immune response, and antioxidant production. The reduction of ZIKV polyprotein in the presence of Wolbachia in the mosquitoes was determined by mass spectrometry and corroborates the idea that Wolbachia helps to block ZIKV infections in Ae. aegypti. The present study offers a rich resource of data to help elucidate mechanisms by which Wolbachia orchestrate resistance to ZIKV infection in Ae. aegypti.

Gene expression profiling in wMelPop-infected Aedes aegypti

Project description:Whole genome transcriptional profiling comparing Ae. aegypti infected with Wolbachia sp. wMelPop (PGYP1) to an uninfected Ae. aegypti control line (PGYP1.tet). The objective of the experiment was to identify genes that may be involved in the life shortening phenotype associated with wMelPop infection.

The effect of permethrin resistance on Aedes aegypti transcriptome following ingestion of Zika virus infected blood

Project description:Aedes aegypti (L.) is the primary vector of many emerging arboviruses. Insecticide resistance among mosquito populations is a consequence of the application of insecticides for mosquito control. We used RNA-sequencing to compare transcriptomes between permethrin resistant and susceptible strains of Florida Ae. aegypti in response to Zika virus infection. A total of 2,459 transcripts were expressed at significantly different levels between resistant and susceptible Ae. aegypti. Gene ontology analysis placed these genes into 7 categories of biological processes. The 863 transcripts were expressed at significantly different levels between two strains (up/down regulated) more than 2-fold. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis validated Zika-infected response, and suggested a highly overexpressed P450, with AAEL014617 and AAEL006798 as potential candidates for the molecular mechanism of permethrin resistance in Ae. aegypti. Our findings indicated that most detoxification enzymes and immune system enzymes altered their gene expression between the two strains of Ae. aegypti in response to Zika virus infection. Understanding the interactions of arboviruses with resistant mosquito vectors at the molecular level allows for the possible development of new approaches in mitigating arbovirus transmission. This information sheds light on Zika-induced changes in the insecticide resistance of Ae. aegypti with implications for mosquito control strategies.

Transcriptomic analysis of gnotobiotic Aedes aegypti mosquitoes

Project description:We compare the transcriptome of gnotobiotic Ae. aegypti generated by contaminating axenic (bacteria-free) larvae with bacterial isolates found in natural mosquito breeding sites. We focused on four bacterial isolates (Lysobacter, Flavobacterium, Paenibacillus and Enterobacteriaceae) and found that different gnotobiotic treatments resulted in massive transcriptomic changes throughout the mosquito development.
