Effect of Zika virus (ZIKV) sfRNA on host gene expression in human brain organoids

ABSTRACT: We employed 3D brain organoids generated from induced human pluripotent stem cells (ihPSC) as ex vivo model of viral infection in the developing brain and utilized wild type (WT) ZIKV producing sfRNA and mutant ZIKV deficient in production of sfRNA. Global transcriptome profiling by RNA-Seq revealed that production of sfRNA affects expression of >1000 genes. We uncovered that in addition to activation of pro-apoptotic pathways, organoids infected with sfRNA-producing WT, but not sfRNA-deficient mutant ZIKV, exhibited strong down-regulation of genes involved in signaling pathways that control neuron differentiation and brain develop-ment, which indicates the requirement of sfRNA for suppression of neurodevelopment associated with ZIKV infection. Using gene set enrichment analysis and gene network reconstruction, we demonstrated that the effect of sfRNA on pathways that control brain development occurs via crosstalk between Wnt-signaling and proapoptotic pathways.

Molecular Signatures Associated with ZIKV Exposure in Human Cortical Neural Progenitors and Astrocytes

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection causes microcephaly and has been linked to other brain abnormalities. How ZIKV impairs brain development and function remains elusive. Here we systematically profiled transcriptomes of human neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) and astrocytes exposed to Asian ZIKVC, African ZIKVM, and Dengue virus (DENV). DENV causes distinct gene expression changes; and ZIKV has a broader impact on the expression of gene involved in DNA replication and repair. While overall expression profiles are similar, ZIKVC, but not ZIKVM, induces upregulation of viral response genes. Upon ZIKV infection, astrocytes exhibit more prominent transcriptome changes than hNPCs, particularly enriching genes related to inflammatory response and cytokine production pathways. Our analyses reveal cell-type- and strain-specific molecular signatures associated with ZIKV infection, and identify astrocytes as a major direct target of ZIKV. Further investigation of ZIKV-host interactions based our transcriptomic datasets may help to illuminate neural virulence determinants of ZIKV in patients.

Expression profiling of death-related genes in ZIKV-infected SH-SY5Y cells

Project description:Analysis of death triggering pathways activated by experimental Zika virus infection in SH-SY5Y cells by expression profiling of 42 genes related to survival, anti-apoptotic and proapoptotic responses, and death receptors pathway, and 06 endogenous control genes. Commercially available neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were grown in vitro, experimentally infected with Zika virus (MOI 0.5), and MOCK- and ZIKV-infected cells were harvested at 1 and 2 days post-infection. We used TaqMan ™ Array Human Apoptosis via Death Receptors (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MA, USA) to quantitate gene expression during ZIKV infection in SH-SY5Y cells.

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.

Human neurospheres ZIKV infection

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) has been associated with microcephaly and other brain abnormalities; however, the molecular consequences of ZIKV to human brain development are still not fully understood. Here we describe alterations in human neurospheres derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells infected with the strain of Zika virus that is circulating in Brazil. Combining proteomics and mRNA transcriptional profiling, over 500 proteins and genes associated with the Brazilian ZIKV infection were found to be differentially expressed. These genes and proteins provide an interactome map, which indicates that ZIKV controls the expression of RNA processing bodies, miRNA biogenesis and splicing factors required for self-replication. It also suggests that impairments in the molecular pathways underpinning cell cycle and neuronal differentiation are caused by ZIKV. These results point to biological mechanisms implicated in brain malformations, which are important to further the understanding of ZIKV infection and can be exploited as therapeutic potential targets to mitigate it.

Generation of Brain Region-specific Organoids using a Miniaturized Spinning Bioreactor and Modelling ZIKV Exposure

Project description:Cerebral organoids, three-dimensional cultures that model organogenesis, provide a new platform to investigate human brain development. High cost, variability and tissue heterogeneity limit accessibility and broad applications of current organoid technologies. Here we developed a miniaturized spinning bioreactor (SpinΩ) to generate forebrain-specific organoids from human iPSCs. These organoids recapitulate key features of human cortical development, including progenitor zone organization, neurogenesis, gene expression, and importantly, a distinct human-specific outer radial glia cell layer. We have also developed protocols to generate midbrain and hypothalamic organoids. Finally, we employed this forebrain organoid platform to model Zika virus (ZIKV) exposure. Quantitative analyses revealed that preferential, productive ZIKA infection of cortical neural progenitors leads to increased cell death and reduced proliferation, resulting in decreased neuronal cell layer volume that resembles microcephaly. Together, our brain region-specific organoids and SpinΩ provide an accessible and versatile platform for modeling human brain development and diseases, and for compound testing.

ZIKV infection strongly induces antiviral immune responses in human NPCs

Project description:To investigate the cellular pathologies in human NPCs after ZIKV infection, we performed global transcriptome profiling of the FD, FV, and H&S organoids at 3 and 6 dpi. We found 105 upregulated genes in the FD NPCs, 60 genes in the FV NPCs, and 168 genes in the H&S NPCs, with at least 1.5-fold differences found between ZIKV-infected groups and the control groups at 6 dpi. Among them, 28 genes overlapped in all three regional NPCs. These 28 common genes exclusively referred to the pathways associated with immune responses to viral infection, which could be clustered to the ISG family.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of brain Transcriptome after viral infection with ZIKV (Zika Virus)

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to understand ZIKV induced immune responses in the developing brain at genome-wide level. Methods: Total RNA was isolated from E17.5 mouse brains after viral infection at E14.5. After genomic DNA and ribosomal RNA removal, fractionated RNA were subjected to strand-specific library preparation using NEBNext Ultra RNA Library Prep Kit. Sequencing was performed on Nextseq500 (Illumina). The sequencing reads that passed quality filters were analyzed with TopHat followed by Cufflinks. Results: After performed Gene Ontology analyses with RNA-seq data, our results revealed a set of genes that are associated with the immune response and apoptosis pathways. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) further show significant enrichments on both the immune system response and apoptosis pathways. Some of these results were also verified with qRT-PCR. Conclusions: Our results suggest that ZIKV infection triggers an aggressive immune response, which has the potential to cause exacerbation of brain damage by enhancing neuronal death and generating vascular abnormalities. Our discovery of massive neuronal death, leaky blood-brain-barrier (BBB), and astrogliosis in ZIKV infected brains is the first study to suggest that ZIKA causes extensive brain damage.
