Restoring a homeostatic microglia state by combination antiretroviral therapy in SIV-infected rhesus macaques

ABSTRACT: Although modern therapies like cART have transformed HIV from a lethal disease to a manageable condition, associated neurocognitive consequences remain a concern. Paradoxically, microglia and macrophages, which comprise the innate defense system in the brain and are crucial for CNS homeostasis, are targets for HIV and key players in its neuropathogenesis. In addition, these infected cells can serve as viral reservoirs even in effectively treated infection. Here using an scRNA-seq approach in the SIV-NHP model, we demonstrate differential transcriptional programs in brain myeloid cells from monkeys under four conditions: uninfected, chronically SIV-infected, chronically SIV-infected treated with combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), and SIVE. Our study reveals alterations in composition (both lineage and gene expression profiles) of the cell populations between groups. Importantly, treatment with cART largely restored the homeostatic microglia profile present in uninfected animals that was disrupted in SIV-infected untreated animals

Morphine Alters Systemic Responses to SIV Infection of Rhesus Monkeys and Changes Brain Macrophage and Microglia Gene Expression Favoring Neuropathogenesis

Project description:In this study, we investigated longitudinal changes in response to SIV infection of rhesus monkeys in the presence of morphine, compared to animals administered saline, before and after cART treatment. Using single-cell and single-nucleus RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq and snRNA-seq), we examined the effect of morphine on brain-resident macrophages and microglia in these SIV-infected, cART-suppressed animals to better understand the factors responsible for the morphine-induced increased CNS reservoir and the role of opioids in neuropathogenesis.

Methamphetamine increases the proportion of SIV-infected microglia/macrophages, alters metabolic pathways, and elevates cell death pathways: a single-cell analysis

Project description:Both drugs abuse and HIV infection continue to affect many indiviiduals. Both have untoward effects on the brain, and the two conditions often co-exist. In the brain, macrophages and microglia are infectable by HIV, and these cells are also targets for the effects of drugs of abuse such as the psychostimulant methamphetamine. In order to determine the interaction of HIV and methamphetamine we isolated microglia and macrophages from the brains of SIV-infected rhesus monkeys treated with methamphetamine and from SIV-infected monkeys who did not receive methamphetamine. Cells were subjected to single cell RNA sequencing and results analyzed by statistical and bioinformatic analysis. In the animals treated with methamphetamine, a significantly increased proportion of cells were infected by SIV. In addition, genes encoding functions in cell death pathways were increased, and the brain-derived neurotropic factor pathway was inhibited. The gene expression patterns in infected cells did not cluster separately from uninfected cells, but clusters comprised of cells from methamphetamine-treated animals differed in neuroinflammatory and metabolic pathways from those comprised of cells from untreated animals. Methamphetamine increases CNS infection by SIV and has adverse effects on both infected and uninfected microglia and brain macrophages, highlighting the dual and interacting harms of HIV infection and drug abuse on the brain.

MicroRNA profiling of Basal ganglia tissue from chronically SIV infected rhesus macaques II

Project description:The study describes miRNA expression changes in basal ganglia (BG) of chronically SIV-infected rhesus macaques. HIV/SIV-associated neurological disorder (HAND) represents a major comorbidity affecting HIV patients on anti-retroviral therapy. Employing a systems biology approach, we report molecular changes underlying HAND and its modulation by phytocannabinoids [delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (9-THC)] in uninfected and SIV-infected rhesus macaques (RMs) treated with vehicle (VEH/SIV) or 9-THC (THC/SIV). VEH/SIV but not THC/SIV RMs showed significant enrichment of genes linked to anti-viral defense, interferon-beta, NFkB, RIG-1, and JAK-STAT signaling. We focused on the anti-endoplasmic reticulum (WFS1) and anti-oxidative stress (CRYM) proteins that were significantly downregulated in BG of VEH/SIV RMs. Both proteins localized to the BG neurons, and showed differential expression in the BG of THC/SIV and VEH/SIV RMs. Additionally, inflammation-associated miR-155 and miR-142-3p showed significantly higher expression in the BG of VEH/SIV RMs. In human primary HCN2 neuronal cells, miR-142-3p post-transcriptionally downregulated WFS1. These findings strongly support a role for differential miRNA expression associated with HIV/SIV induced neurological dysfunction.

MicroRNA profiling of Gingival tissue from chronically SIV infected rhesus macaques

Project description:The study describes miRNA expression in Gingival tissue of chronically SIV-infected rhesus macaques. HIV/SIV-associated periodontal disease (gingivitis/periodontitis) (PD) represents a major comorbidity affecting HIV patients on anti-retroviral therapy. Employing a systems biology approach, we report molecular changes underlying PD and its modulation by phytocannabinoids [delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (9-THC)] in uninfected and SIV-infected rhesus macaques (RMs) untreated (VEH-untreated/SIV) or treated with vehicle (VEH/SIV) or 9-THC (THC/SIV). VEH- untreated/SIV but not THC/SIV RMs showed significant enrichment of genes linked to anti-viral defense, interferon-beta, NFkB, RIG-1, and JAK-STAT signaling. We focused on the anti-microbial DUOX1 and immune activation marker IDO1 that were reciprocally regulated in gingiva of VEH-untreated/SIV RMs. Both proteins localized to the gingival epithelium and CD163+ macrophages, and showed differential expression in the gingiva of THC/SIV and VEH/SIV RMs. Additionally, inflammation-associated miR-21, miR-142-3p, miR-223, and miR-125a-5p showed significantly higher expression in the gingiva of VEH/SIV RMs. In human primary gingival epithelial cells, miR-125a-5p post-transcriptionally downregulated DUOX1 These findings strongly support a role for differential miRNA expression associated with HIV/SIV induced gingival mucosal dysfunction.

Sirtuin 1-chromatin-binding dynamics point to a common mechanism regulating microglial inflammatory targets in SIV infection and in the aging brain

Project description:Microglia are critical regulators in neurodegenerative disorders. Since HIV infection results in neurological perturbations that are similar to those in aging, we examined microglial changes that might resemble aging, using SIV infection in rhesus macaques to model neuroAIDS. We found that Sirt-1, a molecule that impacts survival and health in many models, was decreased in infected macaques. The role of Sirt-1 in neuroAIDS is unknown. We hypothesized that Sirt-1 silencing functions are affected by SIV. Mapping of Sirt-1 binding patterns to chromatin revealed that the number of Sirt-1-bound genes was 29.6% increased in microglia from infected animals with mild neuropathology, but 51% was decreased in severe neuropathology, compared to controls. Sirt-1-bound genes in controls largely participate on neuroinflammation. Promoters of type I IFN pathway genes IRF7, IRF1, IFIT1, and AIF1, showed Sirt-1 binding in controls, which was consistently lost after infection, together with higher transcription. This was also found in brains from old uninfected animals, suggesting a common regulation. Sirt-1 blockage in vitro modulated IRF7, IRF1 and AIF1 levels. Our data suggests that Sirt-1-inflammatory gene silencing is disturbed by SIV, resembling aging in brains. These findings may impact neurological consequences of HIV infection, aggravated and overlapping with the aging process.

Fetal Metabolic Stress Disrupts Immune Homeostasis and Induces Proinflammatory Responses in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1- and Combination Antiretroviral Therapy-Exposed Infants

Project description:Increased morbidity and fetal growth restriction are reported in uninfected children born to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)–infected women treated with antiretroviral (ARV) therapy. Viruses and/or pharmacological interventions such as ARVs can induce metabolic stress, skewing the cell’s immune response and restricting (cell) growth. Novel metabolomic techniques provided the opportunity to investigate the impact of fetal HIV-1 and combination ARV therapy (cART) exposure on the infants’ immune metabolome. Peroxidized lipids, generated by reactive oxygen species, were increased in cART/HIV-1–exposed infants, indicating altered mitochondrial functioning. The lipid metabolism was further dysregulated with increased triglyceride species and a subsequent decrease in phospholipids in cART/HIV-1–exposed infants compared to control infants. Proinflammatory immune mediators, lysophospholipids as well as cytokines such as CXCL10 and CCL3, were increased whereas anti-inflammatory metabolites from the cytochrome P450 pathway were reduced in cART/HIV-1–exposed infants. Taken together, these data demonstrate that the fetal metabolism is impacted by maternal factors (cART and HIV-1) and skews physiological immune responses toward inflammation in the newborn infant.

Spatial transcriptomics of the Rhesus Macaque Hippocampus during homeostasis and chronic SIV CL757 infection

Project description:We performed spatial transcriptomics using Nanostring's DSP platform on Rhesus Macaque Hippocampal Brain sections obtained from one uninfected control and one chronically infected with SIVCL757. Our goals were to (1) determine which differentially expressed genes (DGEs) could be attributed to SIV infection in the rhesus hippocampus, (2) determine if spatial transcriptomics could serve as a tool to identify leukocyte infiltrates in the SIV infected brain and (3) examine localization of leukocytes at homeostatasis and chronic SIV infection

Liver Macrophage Infiltration and Inflammation are associated with Antiviral Responses During SIV Infection in Macaques that is Only Partly Reduced during cART

Project description:Non-AIDS- related conditions have become increasingly more prevalent in those infected with HIV, with liver disease being one of the most predominant complications. Using the macaque simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) model, we identified upregulation of numerous inflammatory pathways in the liver, which only partially resolved in cART (combination antiretroviral therapy) treated macaques.

SIV Encephalitis and Uninfected Control: Hippocampus Expression Profiles

Project description:HIV-associated dementia (HAD) is a syndrome occurring in HIV-infected patients with advanced disease that likely develops as a result of macrophage and microglial activation as well as other immune events triggered by virus in the central nervous system. The most relevant experimental model of HAD, rhesus macaques exhibiting SIV encephalitis (SIVE), closely reproduces the human disease and has been successfully used to advance our understanding of mechanisms underlying HAD. In this study we integrate gene expression data from uninfected and SIV-infected hippocampus with a human protein interaction network and discover modules of genes whose expression patterns distinguish these two states, to facilitate identification of neuronal genes that may contribute to SIVE/HIV cognitive deficits. Using this approach we identify several downregulated candidate genes and select one, EGR1, a key molecule in hippocampus-related learning and memory, for further study. We show that EGR1 is downregulated in SIV-infected hippocampus and that it can be downregulated in differentiated human neuroblastoma cells by treatment with CCL8, a product of activated microglia. Integration of expression data with protein interaction data to discover discriminatory modules of interacting proteins can be usefully employed to prioritize differentially expressed genes for further study. Investigation of EGR1, selected in this manner, indicates that its downregulation in SIVE may occur as a consequence of the host response to infection, leading to deficits in cognition. RNA from duplicate hippocampal samples taken from nine control monkeys and nine monkeys with evidence of SIV encephalitis were hybridized to Affymetrix arrays.

Gene expression profiling data from sooty mangabeys treated with interferon alpha

Project description:In contrast to pathogenic HIV and SIV infection of humans and macaques, SIV infection of sooty mangabeys (SMs) is typically non-pathogenic despite high virus replication. A key feature of primary SIV infection of SMs is a strong type I interferon (IFN-I) response, characterized by massive up-regulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISG), followed by rapid resolution during the acute-to-chronic phase transition and establishment of an immune quiescent state that persists throughout the chronic infection. Based on these observations we hypothesized that low levels of IFN-I signaling may be instrumental in preventing chronic immune activation and disease progression in SIV-infected SMs. We used microarrays to characterize gene expression changes induced by IFNalpha treatment. To directly assess the effects of an experimentally-induced augmentation of IFN-I signaling in chronically SIV-infected SMs, we administered recombinant rhesus macaque IFNalpha2-IgFc (rmIFNα2) to eight naturally SIV-infected SMs weekly for 16 weeks and longitudinally monitored viral load, lymphocyte counts, immune activation, SIV-specific CD8+ T-cell responses, and gene expression profile. Administration of rmIFNα2 was bioactive in vivo with gene expression profiling revealing a strong upregulation of numerous ISGs in the blood of treated animals.
