A Mouse Model of Epstein-Barr virus LMP1 and LMP2A Driven Germinal Center B-cell Lymphoproliferative Disease

ABSTRACT: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a major cause of immunosuppression-related lymphomas. EB-driven lymphoproliferative disease complicates up to 20% of transplants, and EBV is a major cause of human immunodeficieciency virus associated lymphomas. Despite successful antiretroviral therapy, the incidence of EBV-associated Hodgkin lymphoma continues to increase in HIV+ individuals. To gain insights into EBV membrane oncoprotein effects on B-cell growth, survival and pathogenesis in vivo, we generated transgenic mouse models, in which knock-in mice transgenically express control GFP or EBV latent membrane proteins (LMP) 1 and 2A under the control of the AICDA promoter. Upon T and NK-cell depletion by antibody cocktail, LMP1 and 2A co-expression drove explosive growth of plasmablastic lymphoma-like cells, which proliferated in the spleen, caused severe end-organ damage and death. RNAseq profiling identified genome-wide LMP1 and 2A effects on B-cell gene expression, including dramatic effects on chemokine and cytokine production. While cells exhibited plasmablast features, LMP1 and 2A co-expression also induced mixed hematopoietic lineage markers, a well described but incompletely understood feature of Hodgkin lymphoma. Collectively, our results identify synergistic effects of EBV membrane oncoprotein expression, and highlight their role in lymphoproliferative diseases of immunocompromised hosts.

Germinal Center Cytokines Driven Epigenetic Control of Epstein-Barr Virus Latency Gene Expression

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) persistently infects 95% of adults worldwide and is associated with multiple human lymphomas that express characteristic EBV latency programs used by the virus to navigate the B-cell compartment. Upon primary infection, the EBV latency III program, comprised of six Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigens (EBNA) and two Latent Membrane Protein (LMP) antigens, drives infected B-cells into germinal center (GC). By incompletely understood mechanisms, GC microenvironmental cues trigger the EBV genome to switch to the latency II program, comprised of EBNA1, LMP1 and LMP2A and observed in GC-derived Hodgkin lymphoma. To gain insights into pathways and epigenetic mechanisms that control EBV latency reprogramming as EBV-infected B-cells encounter microenvironmental cues, we characterized GC cytokine effects on EBV latency protein expression and on the EBV epigenome. We confirmed and extended prior studies highlighting GC cytokine effects in support of the latency II transition. The T-follicular helper cytokine interleukin 21 (IL-21), which is a major regulator of GC responses, and to a lesser extent IL-4 and IL-10, hyper-induced LMP1 expression, while repressing EBNA expression. However, follicular dendritic cell cytokines including IL-15 and IL-27 downmodulate EBNA but not LMP1 expression. CRISPR editing highlighted that STAT3 and STAT5 were necessary for cytokine mediated EBNA silencing via epigenetic effects at the EBV genomic C promoter. By contrast, STAT3 was instead necessary for LMP1 promoter epigenetic remodeling, including gain of activating histone chromatin marks and loss of repressive polycomb repressive complex silencing marks. Thus, EBV has evolved to coopt STAT signaling to oppositely regulate the epigenetic status of key viral genomic promoters in response to GC cytokine cues.

Transcriptional profiling of EBV gene in nasal NK/T lymphoma and chronic active EBV infection

Project description:Nasal T/NK lymphoma is a unique subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that is aggressive and incurable closely associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)3. The clonal expansion of EB infected T- or NK cell is also seen in patients with chronic active EBV (CAEBV) infection, suggesting that two diseases might partly share a similar mechanism by which EBV affect host cellular genes. In order to understand the pathogenesis of EBV-associated T/NK lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD) and design new therapies, we employed a novel EBV DNA microarray to compare patterns of EBV expression in SNK/T cells established from EBV-associated T/NK LPD. Keywords: parallel sample

Comparative gene expression analysis upon stimulation of the human BCR or an inducible LMP2A in EBV immortalized lymphoblastoid cell lines

Project description:Survival of all B cells depends on signals from the B-cell receptor (BCR). In BCRnegative B cells the latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) replaces this survival signal and might play a role in the development of EBV-positive Hodgkin lymphomas and posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disease. In these BCR-negative cells LMP2A provides a ‘tonic’ signal similar to BCR’s constitutive expression in the absence of antigen in order to maintain activating signaling pathways common to both receptor molecules. In most latently EBV-infected B cells LMP2A and BCR are co-expressed but it is largely unclear what LMP2A contributes with respect to B-cell activation, proliferation and viral latency in these BCR-positive cells. A common model suggests that LMP2A maintains herpesviral latency by blocking BCR-mediated signals but how LMP2A could serve both antithetical ends in BCRnegative and BCR-positive cells is elusive. Our comparative analysis of BCR and LMP2A now indicates that LMP2A is a true BCR mimic that dominates BCR-operated signaling pathways in EBV-infected, BCR-positive cells to provide activation signals, support stable infections in vivo and allow exit from latency. These findings suggest that LMP2A co-opts the situation in anergic B cells, where continuous BCR signaling results in maintenance of the anergic state accompanied by unresponsiveness to acute BCR stimulation. The microarray experiment was used to compare effects of BCR and LMP2A on gene expression regulation. EBV's LMP2A and the human BCR activate similar cellular target genes; some genes are regulated solely by BCR or LMP2A, no gene is counter regulated A 12 chip study using cDNA from three separate 2525 LMP2A knockout LCL cultures and three separate 3696.10 LMP2A:mCD69 LCL cultures; each culture tested before and after 90 min stimulation of the BCR and LMP2A:mCD69, respectively.

CRISPR/Cas9 Screens Reveal Epstein-Barr virus Synthetic Lethal Targets

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) causes endemic Burkitt lymphoma and immunosuppression-related lymphomas. These B-cell malignancies arise by distinct transformation pathways and utilize divergent viral and host expression programs. To identify host dependency factors elicited by EBV latent-infection states, we performed parallel genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screens in Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and lymphoblasotid cell lines (LCL). Our results highlighted 57 BL and 87 LCL genes selectively critical for their growth and survival. LCL hits were enriched for EBV-induced genes, including viral super-enhancer targets and multiple kinases. We uncovered key CD19/CD81 roles in EBV membrane protein-driven PI3K/AKT activation and mechanisms by which EBV evades tumor suppressor responses to its growth program. LMP1-induced cFLIP was critical for LCL defense against TNFa-mediated programmed cell death, while EBV-induced BATF/IRF4 were critical for LCL BIM suppression and MYC induction. EBV super-enhancer targeted IRF2 protected LCLs against BLIMP1 responses. Collectively, our results identify host/pathogen interaction-driven synthetic lethal targets for therapeutic intervention.

EBV Latent membrane protein1 modifies EV content

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EV) mediate intercellular communication events and alterations in normal vesicle content contribute to function and disease initiation or progression. The ability to package a variety of cargo and transmit molecular information between cells renders EVs important mediators of cell to cell crosstalk. Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is a chief viral oncoprotein expressed in most Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated cancers and is released from cells at high levels in EVs. LMP1 containing EVs have been demonstrated to promote cell growth, migration, differentiation, and regulate immune cell function. Despite these significant changes in recipient cells induced by LMP1 modified EVs, the mechanism how this viral oncogene modulates the recipient cells towards these phenotypes is not well understood. We hypothesize that LMP1 alters EV content and following uptake of the LMP1-modified EVs by the recipient cells results in the activation of cell signaling pathways and increased gene expression which modulates the biological properties of recipient cell towards a new phenotype. Our results show that LMP1 expression alters the EV protein and microRNA content packaged into EVs.

Identification of Host Biomarkers of EBV Latency IIb and Latency III

Project description:Deciphering the molecular pathogenesis of virally induced cancers is challenging due, in part, to the heterogeneity of both viral and host gene expression. Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous herpesvirus prevalent in B-cell lymphomas of the immune suppressed. EBV infection of primary human B cells leads to their immortalization into lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) serving as a model of these lymphomas. In previous studies, our lab has described a temporal model for immortalization with an initial phase characterized by expression of the Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigens (EBNAs), high c-Myc activity, and hyper-proliferation in the absence of the Latent Membrane Proteins (LMPs), called latency IIb. This is followed by the long-term outgrowth of LCLs expressing the EBNAs along with the LMPs, particularly the NFkB-activating LMP1, defining latency III. LCLs, however, express a broad distribution of LMP1 such that a subset of these cells expresses LMP1 at levels seen in latency IIb, making it difficult to distinguish these two latency states. In this study, we performed mRNA-Seq on early EBV-infected latency IIb cells and latency III LCLs sorted by NFkB activity. We found that latency IIb transcriptomes clustered independently from latency III independent of NFkB. We identified and validated mRNAs defining these latency states. Indeed, we were able to distinguish latency IIb cells from LCLs expressing low levels of LMP1 using multiplex RNA-FISH targeting EBV EBNA2, LMP1, and human CCR7 or MGST1. This study defines latency IIb as a bona fide latency state independent from latency III and identifies biomarkers for understanding EBV-associated tumor heterogeneity
