13C-glucose tracing analysis of IFN-treated A549 cells expressing wild-type SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3-4 or a deISGylation-defective Nsp3-4 mutant protein
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Interferon (IFN)-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) regulates diverse cellular processes, including antiviral immunity, through its conjugation to target proteins (ISGylation). Increasing evidence suggests that ISGylation can also reshape cellular metabolism; however, how viruses counteract ISGylation-mediated metabolic rewiring remains poorly understood. This analysis investigated the impact of the deISGylation activity of the SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease, which is part of the Nsp3 protein, on type I IFN-driven modulation of cellular glucose metabolism. A549 cells expressing empty vector, wild-type (WT) Nsp3-4 from SARS-CoV-2, or a mutant Nsp3-4 protein that is deficient in PLpro deISGylation activity, were treated with IFNα (or mock-treated) and then subjected to 13C-glucose tracing analysis. Following isotope labeling, intracellular metabolites were extracted and analyzed by LC-MS to assess 13C incorporation into intermediates of glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). Comparative analysis of the results revealed distinct labeling patterns in glycolytic and PPP metabolites under IFN-stimulated conditions, supporting a role for PLpro deISGylation activity in modulating cellular glucose metabolism. These data provide insight into how SARS-CoV-2 Nsp3 counteracts IFN-induced metabolic rewiring through its deISGylation activity.

Project description:In this study, the distribution and regulation of periplasmic and cytoplasmic carbon fluxes in Gluconobacter oxydans 621H with glucose were studied by 13C-based metabolic flux analysis (13C-MFA) in combination with transcriptomics and enzyme assays. For 13C-MFA, cells were cultivated with specifically 13C-labeled glucose and intracellular metabolites were analyzed for their labeling pattern by LC-MS. In growth phase I, 90% of the glucose was oxidized periplasmatically to gluconate and partially further oxidized to 2-ketogluconate. Of the glucose taken up by the cells, 9% was phosphorylated to glucose 6-phosphate, whereas 91% was oxidized by cytoplasmic glucose dehydrogenase to gluconate. Additional gluconate was taken up into the cells by transport. Of the cytoplasmic gluconate, 70% was oxidized to 5-ketogluconate and 30% was phosphorylated to 6-phosphogluconate. In growth phase II, 87% of gluconate was oxidized to 2-ketogluconate in the periplasm and 13% was taken up by the cells and almost completely converted to 6-phosphogluconate. Since G. oxydans lacks phosphofructokinase, glucose 6-phosphate can only be metabolized via the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) or the Entner-Doudoroff pathway (EDP). 13C-MFA showed that 6-phosphogluconate is catabolized primarily via the oxidative PPP in both phase I and II (62% and 93%) and demonstrated a cyclic carbon flux through the oxidative PPP. The transcriptome comparison revealed an increased expression of PPP genes in growth phase II, which was supported by enzyme activity measurements and correlated with the increased PPP flux in phase II. Moreover, genes possibly related to a general stress response displayed increased expression in growth phase II. The transcriptome comparisons of G. oxydans growth phase II vs. growth phase I were repeated independently three times in biological replicates resulting in 3 hybridizations as termed by sample 1 to 3.

Project description:Interplay between type I interferon (IFN) driven innate responses and viral antagonism strongly influences SARS-CoV-2 transmission and the COVID-19 disease course. Hence, variant adaptation includes diminished induction of IFN stimulated genes (ISG) and/or evasion of their effector functions. Exogenous IFN treatment “rewires” innate responses to drive virus elimination, yet therapeutic trials to date have been unremarkable. Resolving this paradox could translate to variant-agnostic innate immunotherapy. By contrast, oncolytic viruses (OV) exhibit profoundly attenuated innate antagonism, resulting in potent IFN responses despite the inherently immunosuppressive nature of tumour microenvironments. Moreover, OV only undergo lytic replication within innate-deficient malignant cells, and not in cells where sufficient innate responses exist. This, combined with previous studies showing that OV suppressed replication of underlying oncogenic viruses in tumours, we explored whether clinical grade oncolytic Orthoreovirus (Reo) superinfection could eliminate SARS-CoV-2 from immune-competent lung epithelial cell lines in the absence of toxicity. Reo exerted profound activation of innate responses, including when SARS-CoV-2 infection was already established, rewiring cells towards an antiviral state emulating that of Reo infection alone. Both intracellular and paracrine mechanisms induced ISG repertoires including multiple known anti-SARS-CoV-2 effectors, as well as others that remain unvalidated. Amongst these, we demonstrate the first direct evidence that MX2 and XAF1 restrict SARS-CoV-2 replication. Thus, with an excellent safety record, self-amplification, and respiratory tract tropism, we propose that Reo superinfection may provide a tractable alternative to recombinant cytokines for innate antiviral immunotherapy.

Project description:Background: Type I interferons (IFNs) are essential to the clearance of viral diseases, in part by initiating upregulation of IFN regulated genes (IRGs). A clear distinction between genes upregulated directly by virus and genes upregulated by secondary IFN production has not been made. Here we investigated the genes regulated by IFN-a2b compared to the genes regulated by SARS-CoV infection in ferrets. Methods: We characterized early host immune responses in peripheral blood and lung necropsies of ferrets injected with IFN-a2b or infected with SARS-CoV/Tor 2 strain, using microarray analysis on the Affymetrix platform. Results: We identified a common IRG signature that was upregulated in both SARS-CoV infected ferrets as well as in ferrets injected with IFN-a2b. We also identified unique patterns of gene expression for leukocyte activation, cell adhesion and complement pathways between IFN-a2b injection and SARS-CoV infection. Conclusions: Our results define the effects of IFN-a2b on the immune system of ferrets highlighting genes regulated by IFN during SARS-CoV infection. We have shown the similarities and differences of top funcional gene groups as well as pathways that play key roles in early immune responses in ferrets in response to IFN-a2b or SARS-CoV. Key words: ferret, gene expression, SARS, interferon. Keywords: time course In experiments with IFN-a2b, for peripheral blood, 15 ferrets were randomly allocated to 3 groups: Day 0, 5 ferrets (no IFN injection), day 1, 6 ferrets (injected), and day 2, 4 ferrets (injected). For lung necropsies of injected ferrets with IFN-a2b, we used 12 ferrets in 3 groups: 4 ferrets, day 0 (no IFN injection), 4 ferrets, day 1 (injected) and 4 ferrets, day 2 (injected). Experimental groups for SARS-CoV infection was as follows: For peripheral blood, 3 and 4 ferrets for day 0 (no infection) and day 2 (infection) respectively. For lung neceropsies, a total of 9 ferrets in 3 groups, each with 3 replicates for day 0 (no infection), day 1 (infection) and day 2 (infection).

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) infection causes an immune-mediated disease. We have recently shown that SARS-CoV-induced epithelial Calu-3 cytokines could exacerbate and dampen host inflammatory and T cell responses, respectively, through modulating the functions of macrophages and dendritic cells, thereby suggesting that not only are lung epithelial cells the primary cells of SARS-CoV infection, but they also involve in initiating and orchestrating the host innate and adaptive immunity. Comprehensive evaluation of the complex epithelial signaling to SARS-CoV is, thus, crucial for paving the way to better understand SARS pathogenesis and develop the innovative therapeutics against SARS. Here, based on the microarray-based functional genomics, we reported that 2B4 cells, a clonal derivative of Calu-3 cells, elicited a temporal and spatial activation of nuclear factor (NF)kappaB, activator protein (AP)-1 (ATF2/c-Jun), and interferon regulatory factor (IRF)-3/-7 at 12-, 24-, and 48-hrs post infection (p.i.), respectively, resulting in the activation of many antiviral genes, including interferon (IFN)-β, -λs, SARS-related inflammatory mediators, and various IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). While elevated responses of IFN-β and IFN-λs were not detected until 48-hrs p.i., as a consequence of a delayed IRF-3/-7 activation, we showed, for the first time, that both types of IFNs exerted previously under-described non-redundant, complementary, and/or synergistic effects on the epithelial defense against SARS-CoV. Collectively, our results highlight the molecular mechanisms of the sequential activation of virus- and IFN-dependent signaling of lung epithelial cells against SARS-CoV and identify novel cellular targets for future studies, aiming at advancing strategies against SARS. DNA microarrays were performed in the Molecular Genomics (MG) Core Facilities at UTMB. The detailed information about the procedures of microarray analysis has been posted on the MG Core Facilities website (genomics@scms.utmb.edu). To characterize the dynamic, spatial, and temporal changes of the gene expression induced by SARS-CoV, confluent 2B4 cells grown in T-75 flasks were infected with SARS-CoV (MOI=0.1) or remained uninfected (as control) for 12, 24, and 48hrs. Because 2B4 cells were also permissive to the productive infection of Dhori virus (DHOV), a member of the Orthomyxoviridae family within the Thogotovirus genus, resulting in robust responses of IFNs and other pro-inflammatory mediators, we also established parallel cultures of DHOV-infected 2B4 cells (MOI=0.1) for the comparative analysis of global gene expression elicited by SARS-CoV- versus DHOV-infected 2B4 cells. To meet the minimal number required for application of statistical algorithms, we performed the study in triplicate at each time point for mock-, SARS-CoV-, and DHOV-infected cultures, yielding a total of 27 arrays. Briefly, supernatants were harvested from differentially treated cultures at 12-, 24-, and 48-hrs p.i. for subsequent analyses of viral yields and cytokine profiling, whereas the cells were subjected to total RNA extraction by using an RNAqueous-4PCR kit and following the protocol recommended by the manufacturer (Ambion, Austin, TX). Purified RNA samples were sent to our core facility for conversion to cDNA, biotin-labeled, and hybridized to 27 Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 âGene Chipsâ each of which contained 54,675 probe set identifiers representing more than ~47,400 transcripts that identify ~38,500 well-characterized genes, and various internal controls (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). Mock-infected cells were compared to cells infected with SARS-CoV or DHOV at each time point.

Project description:A recombinant SARS-CoV lacking the envelope (E) protein is attenuated in vivo. Here we report that E protein PDZ-binding motif (PBM), a domain involved in protein-protein interactions, is a major virulence determinant in vivo. Elimination of SARS-CoV E protein PBM by using reverse genetics led to attenuated viruses (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) and to a reduction in the deleterious exacerbate immune response triggered during infection with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt). Cellular protein syntenin bound E protein PBM during SARS-CoV infection. Syntenin activates p38 MAPK leading to overexpression of inflammatory cytokines, and we have shown that active p38 MAPK was reduced in lungs of mice infected with SARS-CoVs lacking E protein PBM (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) as compared with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt), leading to a decreased expression of inflammatory cytokines and to viral attenuation. Therefore, E protein PBM is a virulence factor that activates pathogenic immune response most likely by using syntenin as a mediator of p38 MAPK induced inflammation. Three biological replicates were independently hybridized (one channel per slide) for each sample type (SARS-CoV-wt, SARS-CoV-mutPBM, Mock).

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a global health emergency. A key feature of COVID-19 is dysregulated Interferon-response. Type-I interferon (IFN-I) is one of the earliest antiviral innate immune responses following viral infection and plays a significant role in pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2. In this study, using a proteomics-based approach, we identified that SARS-CoV-2 infection induces delayed and dysregulated IFN-I signaling in Huh7 cells. We demonstrate that SARS-CoV-2 is able to inhibit RIG-I mediated IFN- production. Our results also confirm the recent findings that IFN-I pretreatment is able to reduce susceptibility of Huh7 cells to SARS-CoV-2, but not post-treatment. Senescent Huh7 cells in spite of showing accentuated IFN-I response were more susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection and SARS-CoV-2 effectively inhibited IFIT1 in these cells. Proteomic comparison between SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV revealed a distinct differential regulatory signature of interferon-related proteins emphasizing that therapeutic strategies based on observations in SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV should be used with caution. Our findings provide a better understanding of SARS-CoV-2 regulation of cellular interferon response and a perspective on its use as a treatment. Characterization of the role of different interferon stimulated genes on the inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis may direct novel antiviral strategies.

Project description:Interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) regulates diverse cellular processes, including antiviral immunity, through its conjugation to proteins, a process known as ISGylation. Several pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2, subvert ISGylation by encoding deISGylating enzymes. However, the direct targets and physiological consequences of coronaviral deISGylation remain poorly defined. Here, we engineered a recombinant SARS-CoV-2 harboring a mutant Nsp3 (Nsp3mut) with impaired papain-like protease (PLpro) deISGylating activity. Caco-2 and human bronchial epithelial (HBEpC) cells were infected with either wild-type or Nsp3mut SARS-CoV-2. Comparative transcriptomic profiling revealed that Nsp3mut infection led to a stronger induction of IFN- and ISG-related gene signatures compared to wild-type virus infection in both cell types. These results show that loss of PLpro-mediated deISGylation restores efficient antiviral innate immune responses during SARS-CoV-2 infection.
