Spatial transcriptomics reveals a low extent of transcriptionally active hepatitis B virus integration in patients with HBsAg loss

ABSTRACT: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) can integrate into the chromosomes of infected hepatocytes, contributing to the production of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and to hepatocarcinogenesis. We performed spatial transcriptomics to investigate the intrahepatic cell heterogeneity and the spatial distribution of transcriptionally active HBV integration events in different phases of chronic HBV infection. Our analysis revealed that transcriptionally active HBV integration occurred in chronically HBV-infected patients in different phases, including those patients with HBsAg loss, and antiviral treatment was associated with a decreased number and extent of viral integrations.

Transcription profiling of human HepG2 cells transfected with HBsAG to investigate the global exploration of interaction between HBsAg expression and hepatocytes

Project description:In patient serum, HBsAg particles can outnumber HBV particles by 1000:1 or higher. To explore the interactions between HBsAg and hepatocytes, concentrating on the possible effects of persistently secreting HBsAg on the functions of host cells, we have used the S gene of a full-length HBV isolate derived from an HBsAg chronic carrier (code No. C8, GenBank accession No. AF461363), cloned into pCMV vector to transfect HepG2 cells. G418 resistant clones secreting HBsAg were selected to establish permanent cell lines, and control clones transfected only with the vector were passaged as well to serve as controls. Cells were separately collected on the fourth and the eighth day after seeding, and gene expression profiles of both cell clones were studied and compared by microarray. Totally, 340 genes were suppressed and 673 genes were induced by the expression of HBsAg on the fourth day, whereas 219 genes were down-regulated and 683 genes were up-regulated on the eighth day. Arbitrarily, changes of genes detected on both 4th and 8th day cultures were selected for further study. Many cellular functions such as immune response, xenobiotic metabolism, ubiquitin pathway, transcription regulation were affected by HBsAg expression, indicating a close association between HBsAg and host cells. Experiment Overall Design: HBsAg particles are composed of viral envelope proteins and outnumber HBV virions by 1000:1 or even higher. This unique characteristic of HBV remains to be one of the challenges in basic and clinical aspects of viral hepatitis B. Experiment Overall Design: In this study, we want to explore the interactions between HBsAg and hepatocytes, concentrating on the effects of persistently secreting HBsAg on host cell functions.

Association of HBsAg levels with differential gene expression in NK, CD8 T, and memory B cells in treated patients with chronic HBV

Project description:Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) secretion may impact the immune response in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Therapeutic approaches to suppress HBsAg production are being investigated. Our study aims to examine the immunomodulatory effects of high and low levels of circulating HBsAg by analyzing single-cell RNA sequencing data (scRNAseq) from blood and liver fine-needle aspirates (FNA). This will help to better understand anti-HBV immunity.

Therapeutic vaccine induced plasma cell differentiation is defective upon persistent HBsAg stimulation [bulkRNA]

Project description:Background & Aims: The precise mechanism underlying the attenuation of the antigen-specific B cell response induced by therapeutic vaccination during chronic HBV infection remains unclear. The development of vaccines or strategies targeting this impediment through rational design could potentially result in significant advancements in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B. Methods: A mouse model with a knock-in of a B cell receptor specific to the hepatitis B virus surface antigen was generated under the name E6F6-B. This model was utilized to investigate the temporal and spatial patterns of humoral responses induced by therapeutic vaccination in the presence of persistent antigen stimulation. Through the use of multiple transcriptome sequencing techniques, the differentiation trajectory of HBsAg-specific B cells post therapeutic vaccination during chronic hepatitis B infection was elucidated. Results: In light of the E6F6-B transfer model, a significant reduction in antibody secreting cells were observed two weeks after vaccination. Additionally, an atypical pre-plasma cell population (BLIMP-1+ IRF4+ CD40- CD138-) was identified as a consequence of persistent BCR signaling in the absence of CD40 co-stimulation. A therapeutic antibody-induced suppression of BCR signaling revitalized the HBsAg-specific B cell response.

Expression data of HBV infected liver tissue

Project description:We analyzed three clinical parameters with gene expression data from 122 liver tissues. Six healthy samples were used in validation. All hepatitis samples were HBV infected, which was validated by positive HBsAg or serum HBV-DNA. The samples with HCV infection or metabolic liver injury (e.g. fatty liver, chronic alcoholic hepatitis, etc.) were excluded. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Smart-seq for HBs-specific CD8+ T cells sorted from C57BL/6 mice and C57BL/6-Tg (HBV Alb-1) Bri44 HBV transgenic mice liver

Project description:Previous studies have paid more attention to hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) intrauterine exposure, however the effect of solely hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) exposure on the immune response of offspring against hepatitis B virus (HBV) is still unclear. In this study, we investigated whether HBsAg intrauterine exposure affected the offspring's immune response against HBV and the relevant mechanism, which is important for the prevention of HBV mother-to-infant transmission.

Genentech Whole Genome Sequencing of Four Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients

Project description:<p>Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study we sequenced the whole genome (~80X) and transcriptome of tumor and non-tumor samples from four HCC patients and identified over two hundred HBV integration sites. We found significant clonal expansion of HBV-integrated hepatocytes specifically in the tumor samples. We observed a diverse collection of genomic perturbations near viral integration sites, including gene disruption, viral promoter-driven human transcription, viral-human transcript fusion and DNA copy number alteration. We also sequenced one patient at ultra-high coverage (~240X) to build the most comprehensive HBV-integration landscape yet attempted. Our data suggest that the viral integration significantly expands carcinogenic opportunities in HBV-infected individuals.</p>

Liver transcriptome profiles correlates with viral control during hepatitis B virus infection

Project description:The natural history of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection could be divided in different phases by transaminase and HBV replication levels. However, it remains unknown how the intrahepatic transcriptomes in patients are correlated with the clinical phases. Here, we determined the intrahepatic transcriptomes of chronic hepatitis B patients and examined the role of specific groups of genes, including immune-related genes, in the control of hepatitis B virus infection.

Unique liver transcriptomics profiles in chronic HBV: intrinsic intrahepatic functional clusters discriminate distinct clinical phases

Project description:Since little information is available on the processes in the liver associated with the natural history during chronic HBV infections, we now examined hepatic transcriptomes to identify distinctive gene expression profiles in the HBV clinical phases. We show that the transcriptomes of mild fibrotic, HBV-infected livers were significantly different from those with comorbidities. Across the clinical HBV phases, comparable intrahepatic ISG expression was observed. However, global transcription was most distinctive between the immunotolerant and the immunoactive phases (n=92 genes), followed by the immunotolerant and the HBeAg-negative hepatitis phase (n=71 genes), and the immunotolerant and the inactive carrier phase (n=46 genes). Among these were CD19, TNFRSF13C, granzyme H, and KIR2DS3. Moreover, during these clinical phases, 4 intrinsic functional clusters (IFC) with distinctive transcriptional activity were identified by combined global module analysis. These discriminative clusters contained B-cell and cell cycle-related genes, which were highly expressed in liver during the immunoactive phase; and NK-cell and mitochondria respiration-related genes in the HBeAg-negative hepatitis phase. Our data define distinctive transcriptomes in the liver during HBV clinical phases. We observed important differences between the liver and blood in transcription levels of ISG and cell cycle genes, but, strikingly, also a high degree of overlap in expression patterns of B- and NK-cell genes during the immune active phases.
