ABSTRACT: Metabolomics analysis of C57BL/6 mouse lungs infected with influenza A/Vietnam/1203/04 (H5N1) HALo virus, mock infected with PBS, or untreated.
Project description:Metabolomics analysis of C57BL/6 mouse lungs infected with influenza A/Vietnam/1203/04 (H5N1) HALo virus, mock infected with PBS, or untreated.
Project description:Whole-genome, time-course data was developed from the lungs of influenza infected mice to better characterize the dynamics of the host immune response during infection. Lung for microarray studies were obtained from female, five-week old C57BL/6Js infected with influenza viruses. Forty-two animals per group were inoculated with 10^5 PFU of A/Kawasaki/UTK-4/09 H1N1 virus [Kawasaki], A/California/04/09 (H1N1) virus (pH1N1) [SOIV], A/Vietnam/1203/04 H5N1 virus (H5N1), 10^3 PFU A/Vietnam/1203/04 H5N1 virus (H5N1) [VN1203] or mock-infected with PBS. Spanning the first week of the infections, three animals per infection group were sacrificed at 14 predetermined time points, lungs isolated and the homogenate was used to assess changes in genes expression over time and between infections.

Project description:The cellular transcriptome of C57BL/6 mouse lungs was profiled by mRNA-Seq analysis at multiple time points in response to infection with influenza A/California/04/09 (H1N1), A/Wyoming/03/03 (H3N2), and A/Vietnam/1203/04 (H5N1) HALo virus. The Influenza A/Vietnam/1203/04 (H5N1) HALo mutant virus is an attenuated H5N1 virus generated from wild-type Influenza A/Vietnam/1203/04 (H5N1) virus as described in Steel, J., et al. J Virol. 2009 Feb; 83(4):1742-53. A/Wyoming/03/03 (H3N2) influenza virus replicates poorly in mice and lung tissue collected from mice inoculated with this virus did not carry viral loads detectable by plaque assay.

Project description:Analysis of lung samples from mice infected with a severe H5N1 influenza virus (VN/1203/04/H5N1) or a mild H1N1 influenza virus (NYMC-X-179A) on day 3 and day 5 post-infection. Uninfected controls were used for comparison.
Project description:The pathogenesis of avian influenza A H5N1 virus in human has not been clearly elucidated. There have been increasing evidence suggesting a role for virus-induced cytokine dysregulation in contributing to the pathogenesis of human H5N1 disease. However, the role of aberrant innate immune response in human lungs infected by avian influenza H5N1 virus has not been explored and direct evidence for inappropriate innate responses in lungs of avian influenza H5N1 virus infected patients is lacking.
Project description:Periodic outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian H5N1 influenza viruses and the current H1N1 pandemic highlight the need for a more detailed understanding of influenza virus pathogenesis. To investigate the host transcriptional response induced by pathogenic influenza viruses, we used a functional-genomics approach to compare gene expression profiles in lungs from wild-type 129S6/SvEv and interferon receptor (IFNR) knockout mice infected with either the fully reconstructed H1N1 1918 pandemic virus (1918) or the highly pathogenic avian H5N1 virus Vietnam/1203/04 (VN/1203).

Eight- to 10-week-old female wild-type and IFNR1-/- mice (on a 129S6/SvEv background) were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 0.2 ml of 2,2,2-tribromoethanol in tert-amylalcohol (Avertin; Sigma-Aldrich, Milwaukee, WI). Ten times the 50% lethal dose (LD50), 3.2 × 10^4 PFU (1918) or 7 × 10^3 PFU (VN/1203), in 50 μl of infectious virus diluted in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was inoculated intranasally (i.n.). Lung tissue was harvested for microarray analysis from infected animals at 1, 3, and 4 days post-innoculation. For RNA isolation, lungs were frozen in individual tubes and stored in solution D (4 M guanidinium thiocyanate, 25 mM sodium citrate, 0.5% sarcosyl, 0.1 M β-mercaptoethanol). Separate microarrays were run for each infected mouse. This included 2 animals/time point for 1918 virus-infected mice (24 animals total) or 3 animals/time point for VN/1203-infected mice (36 animals total). Lung tissue from three uninfected wild type 129S6/SvEv mice was collected as a mock control. Equal masses of total RNA from the lung tissue of the three mice were pooled prior to being run on microarray. Two-channel microarrays were used to determine gene expression in the lungs. For each individual infected lung, gene expression from an infected lung was compared to gene expression from the pooled RNA from the mock control.

However, the role of aberrant innate immune response in human lungs infected by avian influenza H5N1 virus has not been explored and direct evidence for inappropriate innate responses in lungs of avian influenza H5N1 virus infected patients is lacking. In order to obtain evidences for the proposed role of aberrant innate immune response in avian influenza H5N1 virus pathogenesis in human, we analyzed expression profile of lung tissues from two fatal cases of avian influenza H5N1 virus infected patients in comparison to normal human lung using an expression microarray.
