Rebalancing Viral and Immune Damage versus Tissue Repair Prevents Death from Lethal Influenza Infection

ABSTRACT: Maintaining tissue function while eliminating pathogen-infected cells is a fundamental challenge in host defense. Studies of acute viral respiratory diseases such as influenza and COVID-19 have emphasized the key role of innate inflammatory damage survival on outcome, yet other than high dose steroids, a wide variety of immunomodulatory drugs have only modest positive effects. Here we tested more than 50 immunomodulatory regimes in a mouse model of lethal influenza infection, with only the previously reported early depletion of neutrophils showing efficacy. This suggests that the infected host passes an early tipping point in which reduction of further innate immune damage alone cannot rescue adequate physiological tissue function. To re-balance the system around this tipping point, we investigated whether late in infection, partial limitation of viral spread using oseltamivir (Tamiflu) together with enhancement of epithelial repair by blockade of interferon signaling or limitation of further epithelial cell loss mediated by cytotoxic CD8+ T cells would rescue infected animals. These treatments rescued a large fraction of infected animals through the two anticipated mechanisms. These findings provide new insight into the importance of repair processes and the timing of adaptive immune responses in survival from influenza infections.

Influenza virus transcription and progeny production are poorly correlated in single cells

Project description:The ultimate success of a viral infection at the cellular level is determined by the number of progeny virions produced. However, most single-cell studies of infection quantify the expression of viral transcripts and proteins, rather than the amount of progeny virions released from infected cells. Here we overcome this limitation by simultaneously measuring transcription and progeny production from single influenza-virus-infected cells by embedding nucleotide barcodes in the viral genome. We find that viral transcription and progeny production are poorly correlated in single cells. The cells that transcribe the most viral mRNA do not produce the most viral progeny, and often represent aberrant infections that fail to express the influenza NS gene. However, only some of the discrepancy between transcription and progeny production can be explained by viral gene absence or mutations: there is also a wide range of progeny production among cells infected by complete unmutated virions. Overall, our results show that viral transcription is a relatively poor predictor of an infected cell’s contribution to the progeny population.

Transcriptional profile of PBMCs in patients with acute RSV or Influenza infection

Project description:To study the transcriptional profile of patients with acute RSV or Influenza infection,children of median age 2.4 months (range 1.5-8.6) hospitalized with acute RSV and influenza virus infection were offered study enrollment after microbiologic confirmation of the diagnosis. Blood samples were collected from them within 42-72 hours of hospitalization. We excluded children with suspected or proven polymicrobial infections, with underlying chronic medical conditions (i.e congenital heart disease, renal insufficiency), with immunodeficiency, or those who received systemic steroids or other immunomodulatory therapies. The RSV cohort consisted of 51 patients with median age of 2 months (range 1.5-3.9) and the influenza cohort had 28 patients with median age of 5.5 months (range 1.4-21). Control samples were obtained from healthy children undergoing elective surgical procedures or at outpatient clinic visits. To exclude viral co-infections we performed nasopharyngeal viral cultures of all subjects. We recruited 10 control patients for the RSV cohort with median age of 6.7 months (range 5-10), and 12 control patients for the influenza cohort with median age of18.5 months (range 10.5-26). We used microarrays to obtain the transcriptional profile of PBMCs from patients with acute RSV or Influenza infection and compared these signatures with the transcriptional profile of primary airway epithelial cells infected with RSV or Influenza.

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Viruses Avoid Effective Inflammatory Response of Human Macrophages

Project description:Macrophages were infected with low (PR8) and high pathogenic influenza viruses (FPV and H5N1). To our surprise a genome-wide comparative systems biology approach revealed that in contrast PR8 infections with HPAIV H5N1 and FPV result in a reduced immune response of human macrophages contradicting a primary role of this cell type for the cytokine storm. Our data point to a viral strategy of HPAIV to bypass a major amplifier of the initial local inflammatory response thereby hampering antiviral effector mechanisms and facilitating virus spreading and systemic disease. Macrophages were infected with low (PR8) and high pathogenic influenza viruses (FPV and H5N1)

A single N66S mutation in the PB1-F2 protein of influenza A virus increases virulence by inhibiting the early interferon response in vivo

Project description:This study used virological, histological, and global gene expression from an experimental murine model of influenza infection to study the contribution of a specific mutation in the PB1-F2 protein (PB1-F2 N66S) of influenza A to viral pathogenesis. 6-8 week old, wild-type, female, C57Bl/6 mice were inoculated individually with 30 μl (10^4 PFU) of virus (recombinant influenza A/WSN/33 carrying the PB1 gene segment from A/Hong Kong/156/97 (H5N1) or a PB1 mutant recombinant virus resulting in an amino acid change at position 66 in the PB1-F2 protein [N66S]) in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing penicillin-streptomycin and bovine serum albumin (PBS-BA-PS). A total of 10^4 PFU of virus was given in all inoculations. Control mice were given PBS-BA-PS. Lung samples were taken for microarray analysis at 12h, 1d, 3d, and 5d post-infection (n=3 animals per group at each time point for virus infected animals; n=2 animals per time point for mock-infected animals).

Transcriptional, Metabolic, Physiological and Developmental Responses to Nitrogen Limitation in Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum)

Project description:Sustainable production of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) as a bioenergy crop hinges in part on efficient use of soil macronutrients, especially nitrogen (N). This study investigated the physiological, metabolic and transcriptomic responses of switchgrass to N limitation. Moderate N limitation marked a tipping point for large changes in plant growth, root-to-shoot ratio, root system architecture and total nitrogen content. Integration of transcriptomic and metabolic data revealed that N limitation reduced switchgrass photosynthetic capacity and carbon(C)-fixation activities. Switchgrass balanced C-fixation with N-assimilation, transport and recycling of N compounds by rerouting C-flux from glycolysis, the oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP) and from the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle in an organ specific manner. The energy and reduction power so generated, and C-skeletons appear to be directed towards N uptake, biosynthesis of energy storage compounds with high C/N ratio such as sucrose, non-N-containing lipids, and various branches of secondary metabolism.

Hernandez-Vargas2012 - Innate immune system dynamics to Influenza virus

Project description:A. Esteban Hernandez-Vargas & Michael Meyer-Hermann. Innate Immune System Dynamics to Influenza Virus. IFAC Proceedings Volumes 45, 18 (2012). The understanding of how influenza virus infection activates the immune system is crucial to designing prophylactic and therapeutic strategies against the infection. Nevertheless, the immune response to influenza virus infection is complex and remains largely unknown. In this paper we focus in the innate immune response to influenza virus using a mathematical model, based on interferon-induced resistance to infection of respiratory epithelial cells and the clearance of infected cells by natural killers. Simulation results show the importance of IFN-I to prevent new infections in epithelial cells and to stop the viral explosion during the first two days after infection. Nevertheless, natural killers response might be the most relevant for the first depletion in viral load due to the elimination of infected cells. Based on the reproductive number, the innate immune response is important to control the infection, although it would not be enough to clear completely the virus. The effective coordination between innate and adaptive immune response is essential for the virus eradication.

Integrated Clinical, Pathologic, Virologic, and Transcriptomic Analysis of H5N1 Influenza Virus-Induced Viral Pneumonia in the Rhesus Macaque

Project description:Viral pneumonia has been frequently reported during early stages of influenza virus pandemics and in many human cases of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus infection. To better understand the pathogenesis of this disease, we produced non-lethal viral pneumonia in rhesus macaques by using an HPAI H5N1 virus (A/Anhui/2/2005; referred to as Anhui/2). Infected macaques were monitored for 14 days, and tissue samples were collected at 6 time points for virologic, histopathologic and transcriptomic analyses. Thirteen colony-bred male or female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta), aged from 2.5 to 3.5 years and ranging in weight from 2.8 to 4.4 kg, were used for experiments. Twelve macaques were individually infected intratracheally with 10^7 EID50 of Anhui/2 in 4 ml of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). At 6 h, 12 h, 1 d, 3 d, 6 d, and 14 d post-infection (p.i.), two animals per time-point were euthanized under anesthesia and necropsies were performed. Lung samples were collected and stored in RNAlater (Ambion, Austin, USA) at -80M-BM-0C for RNA analyses. The remaining macaque (mock-infected) was inoculated with 4 ml of PBS intratracheally and euthanized at 6 h p.i. Lung tissues from the mock-infected animal were collected and stored as described.

Single-cell virus sequence of influenza infections that trigger innate immunity

Project description:The outcome of viral infection is extremely heterogeneous at the cellular level, and infected cells only sometimes activate innate immunity. Here we assess how the genetic variation inherent in viral populations contributes to this heterogeneity. We do this by developing a new approach to determine both the cellular transcriptome and full-length sequences of all viral genes in single influenza-infected cells. Infections that activate an innate-immune response in single cells are associated with viral defects that include amino-acid mutations, internal deletions, and failure to express key genes. However, immune activation remains stochastic in cells infected by virions with these defects, and sometimes occurs even in cells infected by virions that express unmutated copies of all genes. Our work shows that the genetic variation present in influenza virus populations substantially contributes to but does not fully explain the heterogeneity in infection outcome and immune activation in single infected cells.
