Project description:We previously demonstrated that 25HC (25-hydroxycholesterol, a derivative of cholesterol) blocks KSHV (Kaposi Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus/ Human Herpesvirus-8) de novo infection of primary endothelial cells at a post-entry step and decreases viral gene expression. Herein we sought to determine transcriptomic changes associated with 25HC treatment of primary endothelial cells and primary B cells using RNA sequencing. To understand how 25HC inhibits KSHV infection, we examined global gene expression changes induced by 25HC in HUVECs, with or without KSHV infection. We pre-treated HUVEC with 25HC or vehicle control, then infected with KSHV (four conditions: -/+ 25HC, -/+ infection). At 2 days post-infection (dpi), we harvested RNA and performed RNA-seq to determine differentially expressed genes. We found that 25HC treatment inhibited KSHV gene expression globally and induced several inflammatory cytokines (CXCL8, IL1?), AP-1 components, and innate immunity receptors (RIG-I, TLR2) . Likewise, we also observed 25HC to block EBV de novo infection by inducing apoptosis and blocking transformation into lymphoblastoid cell lines. To determine transcriptomic changes that contributes to this, we purified B cells from healthy donors and infected them with EBV after 25HC pre-treatment with 4 similar conditions mentioned above. Samples were sent for RNA-Seq at 10-12 dpi. In contrast to KSHV infection, we found that only a subset of EBV viral transcripts are downregulated in the 25HC-treated samples. LMP1, which is the primary oncogenic factor, was suppressed and several downstream host targets that would prevent apoptosis during infection were likewise dysregulated. Additionally, several viral noncoding RNAs were also highly downregulated. Further analyses revealed that some 25HC-induced genes in our KSHV data set overlap with antiviral genes that were previously identified in various published screens involving other viruses, demonstrating the broad activity of 25HC. Together, these results answer some important questions about a widely acting antiviral (25HC), with implications for multiple viral and bacterial infections.

Project description:Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiologic agent of primary effusion lymphoma (PEL). All PEL cell lines are infected with KSHV, and 70% are co-infected with Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV). KSHV reactivation from latency requires promoter-specific transactivation by the KSHV Rta protein through interactions with RBP-Jk (CSL), the cellular DNA binding component of the Notch signal transduction pathway. EBV transformation of primary B cells requires EBV nuclear antigen (EBNA)-2 to interact with RBP-Jk to direct the latent viral and cellular gene expression program. Although KSHV Rta and EBV EBNA-2 both require RBP-Jk for transactivation, previous studies have suggested that RBP-Jk-dependent transactivators do not function identically. We have found that the EBV latent protein LMP-1 is expressed in less than 5% of KSHV+/EBV+ PEL cells, but is induced in an Rta-dependent fashion when KSHV reactivates. KSHV Rta transactivates the EBV latency promoters in an RBP-Jk-dependent fashion and forms a ternary complex with RBP-Jk on the promoters. In B cells that are conditionally transformed by EBV alone, we show that KSHV Rta complements a short-term EBNA2 growth deficiency in an autocrine/paracrine manner. Complementaton of EBNA2-deficiency by Rta depends on RBP-Jk and LMP-1, and Rta transactivation is required for optimal growth of KSHV+/EBV+ PEL lines. Our data suggest that Rta can contribute to EBV-driven cellular growth by transactivating RBP-Jk-dependent EBV latency genes. However, our data also suggest that EBNA2 and Rta induce distinct alterations in the cellular proteomes that contribute to growth of infected cells.

EREB2-5 cells were transfected and grown in the presence or absence of β-estradiol, as described. Seven days post-transfection, protein extracts were prepared, and 200 ugs. of each were analyzed using the RayBio Human Apoptosis Antibody Array Kit (RayBiotech) as per manufacturers suggestions. The membranes were exposed to autoradiography film for different times to detect the chemiluminescent signals. Images with signals in linear range were quantitated using the program ImageJ [59]. For each membrane, signals from the negative control spots were averaged, and then subtracted from each of the other spots. A signal was considered valid if its value exceeded both its average local background, and the average of all valid negative control values. Valid signals were normalized using the positive control spots (for cellular BID protein). Fold change in signals for each spot were quantitated by dividing by the valid signals for each corresponding spot on the minus β-estradiol membrane. Average fold change, and standard deviation, were calculated for each protein.

Project description:In the current study, we examined the cellular and viral miRNA expression profile in KSHV-infected patients without clinical signs of KSHV-associated disease. In addition, we characterized the viral miRNAs encoded by KSHV and EBV during natural infections in these patients. Finally, we show that malaria infection results in major alterations of the molecular content of plasma exosomes.

Project description:Cancer cells of primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) often contain both Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). We measured the interplay of human, KSHV, and EBV transcription in a cell culture model of PEL using single-cell RNA sequencing. The data detect widespread trace expression of lytic KSHV genes.

Project description:Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is caused by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and frequently also harbors Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The expression of KSHV- and, often, EBV-encoded microRNAs (miRNAs) in PELs suggests a role for these miRNAs in viral latency and lymphomagenesis. Here we report the direct and transcriptome-wide identification of miRNA target sites for all miRNAs expressed in PEL cell lines. The resulting dataset revealed that KSHV miRNAs directly target more than 2000 cellular mRNAs encoding proteins that function in pathways with relevance to KSHV pathogenesis. Moreover, ~50% of these mRNAs are also targeted by EBV miRNAs, via distinct binding sites. In addition to a known viral analog of miR-155, we show that KSHV encodes a viral miRNA that mimics cellular miR-142-3p function. In summary, these experiments identify an extensive list of mRNAs targeted by KSHV miRNAs and indicate that these are likely to strongly influence viral replication and pathogenesis. small RNA sequencing, 3 samples Ago2 (EIF2C2) PAR-CLIP, 2 samples
