Project description:Congenital CMV is the leading cause of congenital infections leading to several different neurological complications including ocular pathology. MCMV infeciton of newborn BALB/c mice is a known mouse model to study human infection. Here we evaluated transcriptional changes caused by the infection in the eye over the course of development from post natal day 5 to 28.

Project description:Cytomegaloviral (CMV) infection poses risks to newborns, necessitating effective therapies. Given that the damage includes both viral infection of brain cells and immune system-related damage, we investigated the involvement of cellular prion protein (PrP), which plays vital roles in neuroprotection and immune regulation. We used single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to analyze the differences in CD8+ T cell and NK cell response to congenital MCMV infection in wild type mice and strain lacking functional PrP protein (PrP KO).

Project description:Expression data from NIH-3T3 cells left uninfected or infected with MCMV for 2, 4 or 6h on total RNA as well as newly transcribed RNA labeled for 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6hpi. For newly transcribed RNA, the isolated RNA was labeled for 1h and separated from total cellular RNA following Trizol RNA preparation and thiol-specific biotinylation. We used microarrays to analyze the effects of MCMV infection in total and newly transcribed RNA. During viral infections cellular gene expression is subject to rapid alterations induced by both viral and antiviral mechanisms. In this study, we applied metabolic labeling of newly transcribed RNA with 4-thiouridine (4sU-tagging) to dissect the real-time kinetics of cellular and viral transcriptional activity during lytic murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection. Microarray profiling on newly transcribed RNA obtained from different times during the first six hours of MCMV infection revealed discrete functional networks of cellular genes regulated with distinct kinetics at surprising temporal resolution. Most of these were undetectable in total RNA, either due to low temporal sensitivity of standard gene expression profiling using total RNA, or due to rapid (viral) counter-regulation. Furthermore, metabolic labeling and purification of newly transcribed RNA detailed the real-time kinetics and regulation of viral gene expression in absence of any interfering virion-associated RNA. Both qRT-PCR and next-generation sequencing of newly transcribed RNA demonstrated an unexpected peak of viral gene expression during the first two hours of infection including transcription of immediate early, early and even well characterized late genes. Interestingly, this peak was subject to rapid gene silencing (independent of the multiplicity of infection) with similar transcriptional activity only reached late in infection. For some genes, e.g. m152, this resulted in massive down-regulation of transcriptional activity by 6 hours post infection, which was not even reversed late in infection. Our findings thus highlight the importance of transcriptional activity during the first few hours of CMV infection and hint at novel mechanisms governing the kinetics of viral gene expression. In conclusion, studying real-time transcriptional activity during lytic CMV infection provides intriguing new insights into the regulation of cellular and viral gene expression. NIH-3T3 cells (5th to 15th passage after thawing) were split from confluent plates 24h before start of the experiment. At the beginning of the experiment about 80% confluency was reached. The experiment was started by applying fresh, prewarmed, CO2-equilibrated medium containing either mock or MCMV particles (MOI 1). The MOI was increased by ~10-fold through centrifugal enhancement (2000g, 30min). Labeling was started 1, 3, or 5hpi after the end of centrifugal enhancement.

Project description:Swiss murine embryonic fibroblasts (NIH-3T3) or murine TCMK-1 epithelial cells were infected with BAC-derived wild-type Smith strain mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 10. PAR-iCLIP was performed using 4-thiouridine labeling on both uninfected and MCMV-infected cells (72h post infection).

Project description:Reactivation of latent HCMV is a significant infectious complication of organ transplantation, and current therapies target viral replication once reactivation of transcriptionally silent, latent virus has already occurred. The specific molecular pathways that activate viral gene expression are not well understood. Our studies aim to identify these factors, with the goal of developing novel therapies that prevent transcriptional reactivation in transplant recipients. MCMV is a valuable model for studying latency and reactivation of CMV induced by organ transplantation. We previously demonstrated that transplantation of MCMV-latently infected kidneys into allogeneic recipients induces transcriptional reactivation of immediate early (IE) gene expression within 48 hr. We used microarrays to profile global mouse kidney gene expression associated with transcriptional reactivation of MCMV immediate early gene expression at 48 hr after transplant of MCMV latently infected kidneys into allogeneic recipients. We identified differentially expressed genes and pathways associated with both early acute rejection and reactivation of MCMV. control vs. allograft
