Circadian Clock Gene Modulation and Selective Reprogramming in Response to Copy-back Viral Genomes During Infection

ABSTRACT: The circadian clock regulates fundamental cellular processes that include the host response to infection. However, its intersection with the mechanisms driving antiviral immunity remains poorly explored. Copy-back viral genomes (cbVGs) generated during virus replication strongly stimulate immunity during infection with negative-sense RNA viruses. Here, we demonstrate that the model lung epithelial cells A549 are circadian-competent, and by tracking the circadian clock at single-cell resolution across an active infection timeline, we show that infection with Sendai virus progressively disrupts the molecular clock architecture, driven primarily by cbVGs. Furthermore, we show that MAVS signaling is essential for the induction of the circadian clock activating component ARNTL2, while PKR signaling is required for the cbVG-specific induction of the repressive components NR1D1, NR1D2, and PER1. A similar cbVG-specific signature was observed in cells infected with a cbVG-high respiratory syncytial virus stock, demonstrating that cbVG-driven clock reprogramming extends to phylogenetically distinct negative-sense RNA viruses. In addition, we established through gain- and loss-of-function experiments that ARNTL2 is functionally required for amplifying the transcriptional response to infection, with selective effects on the expression of specific antiviral genes including CCL5. Together, these findings demonstrate that the host clock is actively disrupted by a subset of viral genomes produced during virus replication and specific clock genes are repurposed to enhance the host response to infection.

Chronobiology of Neurotropic Viruses: Rhythmic Viral Entry and Arrhythmic Host Clocks

Project description:Neurotropic viruses invade neural tissues, resulting in severe diseases such as poliomyelitis, rabies, herpesviral encephalitis, and viral meningitis. Given this neurotropism, we investigated whether the infection of the host by these viruses is under circadian control. Here we show that the expression of most neurotropic virus receptors exhibits rhythmicity across cells, cerebral organoids, and animal models, with host cell susceptibility modulated by the circadian clock. We identify E2F8 as a clock-controlled gene that mediates the indirect regulation of the circadian clock on neurotropic viruses. Notably, E2F8 regulates the expression of core clock components by binding directly to the promoters of REV-ERBα and PER2, suggesting its role as a potential modulator of circadian rhythms. Additionally, we uncovered a seldom-recognized viral strategy to accelerate its own replication in the host: rabies virus disrupts the host circadian clock system primarily through its glycoprotein hijacks the E3 ubiquitin ligase HUWE1 to inhibit proteasomal degradation of REV-ERBα. These findings enhance our understanding of circadian systems' interaction with neurotropic viral dynamics and highlight chronotherapy's potential for improved antiviral treatments.

Influenza virus replication intensity and round of infection dictates the cellular response in vivo

Project description:Influenza A virus has a broad cellular tropism in the respiratory tract. Infected epithelial cells sense the infection and initiate an antiviral response. To define the antiviral response at the earliest stages of infection we used two different single cycle replication reporter viruses. These tools demonstrated heterogeneity in virus replication levels in vivo. Transcriptional profiling demonstrated tiers of interferon stimulated gene responses that were dependent on the magnitude of virus replication. Uninfected cells and cells with blunted replication expressed a distinct and potentially protective ISG signature. Finally, we used these single cycle reporter viruses to determine the antiviral landscape during virus spread, which unveiled disparate protection mediated by IFN. Together these results highlight the complexity of virus-host interactions within the infected lung and suggest that magnitude and round of replication tune the antiviral response.

Reduced Nucleoprotein availability impairs negative-sense RNA virus replication and promotes host recognition

Project description:Negative-sense RNA viruses (NSVs) rely on prepackaged viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRp) to replicate and transcribe their viral genomes. Their replication machinery consists of an RdRp bound to viral RNA which is wound around a nucleoprotein (NP) scaffold, forming a viral ribonucleoprotein complex. NSV NP is known to regulate transcription and replication of genomic RNA, however its role in maintaining and protecting the viral genetic material is unknown. Here, we exploited host microRNA expression to target NP of influenza A virus and Sendai virus to ascertain how this would impact genomic levels and the host response to infection. We find that in addition to inducing a drastic decrease in genome replication, the antiviral host response in the absence of NP is dramatically enhanced. Additionally, our data shows that insufficient levels of NP prevent the replication machinery of these NSVs to process full-length genomes, resulting in aberrant replication products which form pathogen-associated molecular patterns in the process. These dynamics facilitate immune recognition by cellular pattern recognition receptors leading to a strong host antiviral response. Moreover, we observe that the consequences of limiting NP levels are universal amongst NSVs including Ebola virus, Lassa virus and Measles virus. Overall, these results provide new insights into viral genome replication of negative-sense RNA viruses and highlight novel avenues towards developing effective antiviral strategies, adjuvants, and/or live-attenuated vaccines.

Induction and suppression of Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks antiviral RNA interference responses by arthropod-borne RNA viruses (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne bunyavirus that causes severe clinical symptoms and mortality in humans. Haemaphysalis longicornis tick has been identified as the competent vector for SFTSV transmission. Although antiviral RNA interference (RNAi) in insects has been well documented, the degree to which RNAi contributes to antiviral defense in ticks is still largely elusive. In this study, utilizing arthropod-borne RNA viruses, including SFTSV, we find abundant virus-derived small interfering RNAs (vsiRNAs) are induced in H. longicornis after infection through either microinjection or natural blood-feeding. Furthermore, we identify a Dicer2-like homolog, the core protein of antiviral RNAi pathway, in H. longicornis and knocking down this gene exacerbated virus amplification. To counteract this antiviral RNAi of ticks, viruses have evolved suppressors of RNAi (VSRs). Here, we show that reduced viral replication inversely correlated with the accumulation of vsiRNAs in ticks after infection with recombinant sindbis virus (SINV) expressing heterologous VSR proteins. Elucidating the antiviral RNAi pathway of ticks by model arthropod-borne RNA viruses in vivo is critical to understanding the virus-host interaction, providing a feasible intervention strategy to control tick-borne arbovirus transmission.

Proteome and phosphoproteome dynamics of CVB3 infected cells

Project description:Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that reshape the ultrastructure, composition and metabolism of host cells to suit their specific needs, although disparate viruses may modify their host in different ways. Such changes may be specifically induced by the virus to support the infection or be part of cellular antiviral responses or stress responses. Here, using state-of-the-art quantitative (phospho)proteomics, we reveal the unique proteome and phosphoproteome dynamics that occur in the host cells infected with the enterovirus coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3).

A Dicistrovirus-specific inducible antiviral response in Drosophila

Project description:The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is a good model to unravel the molecular mechanisms of innate immunity, and has led to some important discoveries on the sensing and signalling of microbial infections. The response of drosophila to virus infections remains poorly characterized, and appears to involve two facets. On one hand RNA interference (RNAi) involves the recognition and processing of dsRNA into small interfering (si) RNAs by the host ribonuclease Dicer-2 (Dcr-2), whereas on the other hand an inducible response controlled by the evolutionarily conserved JAK/STAT pathway contributes to the antiviral host defence. In order to clarify the contribution of the siRNA and JAK/STAT pathways to the control of viral infections, we have compared the resistance of flies wild-type or mutant for Dcr-2 or the JAK kinase Hopscotch (Hop) to infections by seven RNA or DNA viruses belonging to different families. Our results reveal a unique susceptibility of hop mutant flies to infection by DCV and CrPV, two members of the Dicistroviridae family. Genome-wide microarray analysis confirmed that different sets of genes were induced following infection by DCV (GSE2828) or two unrelated RNA viruses, FHV and SINV. Overall, our data reveal that RNAi is an efficient antiviral mechanism, operating against a large range of viruses, including a DNA virus. By contrast, the antiviral contribution of the JAK/STAT pathway appears to be virus-specific. For each experimental challenge (FHV, 48 or 72 hours after infection; SINV, 4 or 8 days after infection), three biologically independent samples composed of 45 male Oregon R flies were used. Infection has been performed by injecting viral stocks prepared in Tris solution. Injection of the same volume of Tris has been used as control. Infected flies were then incubated for 48 or 72 hours in the case of FHV and 4 days or 8 days in the case of SINV.

Role of IL10 signaling in the circadian control of host response to Influenza infection

Project description:The circadian clock confers a time-of-day specific protection against influenza A Virus (IAV) infection by regulating the host response and limiting immunopathology. IL10 is a cytokine with significant immunoregulatory functions; however, the role of IL10 in IAV is unclear, with reports of both benefit and harm from its blockade early during the infection. Since the expression of IL10R shows diurnal rhythmicity in the lungs, we tested if IL10 signaling contributes to time-of-day specific protection against IAV.

Cross-species analysis of viral nucleic acid interactors identifies TAOKs as immune regulators

Project description:The cell intrinsic antiviral response of multicellular organisms developed over millions of years and critically relies on the ability to sense and eliminate viral nucleic acids. Here we used an affinity proteomics approach in evolutionary distant species (human, mouse and fly) to identify proteins that are conserved in their ability to associate with diverse viral nucleic acids. This approach revealed a conserved core of proteins targeting viral genetic material and species-specific interactants. Functional characterization of the influence of 181 candidates on replication of 6 distinct viruses in human cells and flies identified 128 nucleic acid binding proteins with an impact on virus growth. We identified the family of TAO kinases (TAOK1, -2 and -3) as dsRNA-interacting antiviral proteins and show their requirement in type-I interferon induction. Depletion of TAO kinases in mammals or flies led to an impaired response to virus infection characterized by a reduced induction of interferon stimulated genes in mammals and impaired expression of srg1 and diedel in flies. Overall, our study reveals a by far larger interaction space between viral genetic material and host factors than anticipated so far, attesting to the ancestral roots of innate immunity and to the lineage-specific pressures exerted by viruses.
