Project description:Ribosome profiling (Ribo-Seq) and RNA-Seq analysis of mouse neuroblastoma (Neuro2a) cells infected with Japanese Encephalitis Virus (JEV) P20778 Vellore strain. At 18 h post infection (p.i.), infected cells were treated with either cycloheximide (translation elongation inhibitor) or in combination with harringtonine (translation initiation inhibitor). Ribo-Seq libraries were prepared using a broad range of fragment lengths (25 to 70 nucleotides) and deep sequenced. This allowed for estimation of ribosomal frameshifting efficiency and discovery of a novel upstream open reading frame (uORF) in JEV along with perturbations in ribosome-associated tRNA levels upon JEV infection.
Project description:Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is the leading cause of epidemic encephalitis worldwide. JEV-induced neuroinflammation is characterized by profound neuronal cells damage accompanied by activation of glial cells. Albeit long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been emerged as important regulatory RNAs with profound effects on various biological processes, it is unknown how lncRNAs regulate JEV-induced inflammation. Here, using microarray approach, we identified 618 lncRNAs and 1007 mRNAs differentially expressed in JEV-infected mice brain.
Project description:Caco-2 cells grown on transwells were infected with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) and total RNA was isolated from cells at the time when trans-epithelial electrical resistance was reduced by about 50% of uninfected cells
Project description:Neurotropic flavivirus Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) and West Nile virus (WNV) are amongst the leading causes of encephalitis. Using label-free quantitative proteomics, we identified proteins differentially expressed upon JEV (gp-3, RP9) or WNV (IS98) infection of human neuroblastoma cells. Both viruses were associated with the up-regulation of immune response (IFIT1/3/5, ISG15, OAS, STAT1, IRF9) and the down-regulation of SSBP2, involved in gene expression, as well as PAM, involved in neuropeptide amidation. Proteins associated to membranes, involved in extracellular matrix organization and collagen metabolism represented major clusters down-regulated by JEV and WNV. Moreover, transcription regulation and mRNA processing clusters were also heavily regulated by both neurotropic flaviviruses. If the proteome of neuroblastoma cells infected by JEV or WNV was significantly modulated in the presence of mosquito saliva, both viruses showed distinct patterns. Mosquito saliva favored the modulation of proteins associated with gene regulation in JEV infected neuroblastoma cells while it was the modulation of proteins associated with protein maturation, signal transduction and ion transporters in the case of WNV infected neuroblastoma cells.
Project description:CHME3 cells grown on six-wells were infected with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) (P20778 strain ) and total RNA was isolated from cells at 6, 24 and 48 h of post infection mRNA expression was significantly altered in JEV infected human microglial cells. A time dependant change in microRNA profile was noted. Bioinformatics analysis identified anti correlation between differentially expressed miRNAs and the gene expression at different time point which ultimately affected several signalling pathways in microglia cells. Brain enriched microRNAs and a set of microRNA previously designated as NeurimmiRs were also differentially expressed in response to JEV infection
