Project description:Viruses manipulate central machineries of host cells to their advantage. They prevent host cell antiviral responses in order to create a favourable environment for their survival and propagation. Measles virus (MV) encodes two non-structural proteins MV-V and MV-C, proposed to counteract the host interferon response and to regulate cell death pathways in various functional assays. Several molecular mechanisms underlining MV-V regulation of innate immunity and cell death responses have been proposed, whereas MV-C host protein partners are less studied. We suggest that some cellular factors that are controlled by MV-C protein during viral replication could be components of innate immunity and the cell death pathways. In order to determine which host factors are hijacked by MV-C, we captured both direct and indirect host protein partners of MV-C protein. For this we used a strategy based on recombinant viruses expressing tagged viral proteins followed by affinity purification and a bottom-up mass spectrometry analysis. A list of host proteins specifically interacting with MV-C protein in different cell lines was identified.

Project description:The main goal of this study is to characterize the transcriptional modulations induced by antiviral compounds derived from chloroquine on Huh7 cells infected with HCV. And thus to identify among the genes modulated by infection, those who are regulated by chloroquine and potentially involved in the antiviral activity of the compound.Two HCV cell models were used: a non-infectious HCV replicon and the infectious HCV cell culture (HCVcc). In addition, this study aimed to highlight the characteristics of derivatives of antiviral chloroquine, compared with chloroquine itself. Abstract from the associated publication: Autophagy is a process of self-degradation of cellular components in which double-membrane autophagosomes sequester organelles or portion of cytosol and fuse with lysosomes or vacuoles for breakdown by resident hydrolases. Autophagy is upregulated in response to extra- or intracellular stress and signals such as starvation, growth factor deprivation, ER stress, and pathogen infection. Indeed, infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) was shown to induce autophagy through ER stress signaling and subsequent Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) activation. Moreover, a role of autophagy in promoting HCV infection has been suggested and chloroquine (CQ), a lysosomal protease inhibitor, has been seen blocking autophagy as well as inhibiting HCV replication. In the present report, mechanisms accounting for these inhibitory effects were investigated. Gene expression profiling was performed on CQ treated JFH-1-infected Huh7 cells to identify the host cellular genes that are transcriptionally regulated by infection, and silenced by CQ-based treatment. Herein, we demonstrate that CQ reduces the expression of genes induced by the viral infection such as those encoding autophagic key factors triggering the turn-off of mTOR activity as well as factors involved in p53 and NF-KappaB activities. However, we present several lines of evidence demonstrating that the CQ repressive effect observed on the HCV-induced pathways results from a decrease of ER stress due to the upstream pH-dependent inhibitory effect of CQ on viral replication. Gene expression modulations were measured in Huh7 harboring replicon cells stimulated with a 10M-BM-5M of a Chloroquine derivative compound called CQd, during 6h, 12h and 24h. Two independent experiments were performed at each time. An untreated control condition was performed in each experiment, expression was measured at the 24h time point. For the HCVcc model, gene expression analysis was analyzed in two conditions: infection and treatment of infected cells. To characterize modulations in time course of infection, Huh7 naM-CM-/ve cells were infected with JFH1/CS-N6-A4 viral stock and gene expression was measured at 6h, 24h and 48h postinfection. For each kinetic time point, an uninfected condition was performed and gene expression was measured. An additional control testing the interferon (IFN) induced modulations on infected cells was included and gene expression was measured after a 48h stimulation with 100 IU of IFN (alpha 2 b). To characterize the antiviral modulations resulting from treatment with Chloroquine (CQ) or a derivative compound (CQd), gene expression was measured in JFH1/CS-N6-A4 infected Huh7 cells treated with 40M-BM-5M of CQ or CQd during 12h or 48h post-treatment and infection. For each kinetic time point 12h and 48h, an untreated infected control was also performed and gene expression measured.

Project description:RNA-protein interactions are central to biological regulation. Cross-linking immunoprecipitation (CLIP)-seq is a powerful tool for genome-wide interrogation of RNA-protein interactomes, but current CLIP methods are limited by challenging biochemical steps and fail to detect many classes of noncoding and non-human RNAs. Here we present FAST-iCLIP, an integrated pipeline with improved CLIP biochemistry and an automated informatic pipeline for comprehensive analysis across protein coding, noncoding, repetitive, retroviral, and non-human transcriptomes. FAST-iCLIP of Poly-C binding protein 2 (PCBP2) showed that PCBP2 bound CU-rich motifs in different topologies to recognize mRNAs and noncoding RNAs with distinct biological functions. FAST-iCLIP of PCBP2 in hepatitis C virus-infected cells enabled a joint analysis of the PCBP2 interactome with host and viral RNAs and their interplay. These results show that FAST-iCLIP can be used to rapidly discover and decipher mechanisms of RNA-protein recognition across the diversity of human and pathogen RNAs.

Project description:Listeria monocytogenes causes severe foodborne illness in pregnant women and immunocompromised individuals. After the intestinal phase of infection, the liver plays a central role in the clearance of this pathogen through its important functions in immunity. However, recent evidence suggests that subpopulations of L. monocytogenes may escape eradication after prolonged infection of hepatocytes, by entering a persistence phase in vacuoles. Here, we examine whether this long-term infection alters hepatocyte defense pathways, which may be instrumental for bacterial persistence. We first established models of Listeria infection in human hepatocyte cell lines HepG2 and Huh7 and in primary mouse hepatocytes (PMH). In these cells, Listeria efficiently enters the persistence stage after a 3-day infection, while inducing a type I (PMH) or type I/III (HepG2) or no (Huh7) interferon response. RNA-seq analysis identified a common signature of long-term Listeria infection on the hepatocyte transcriptome, characterized by overexpression of a set of genes involved in antiviral immunity and under-expression of many acute phase protein (APP) genes, particularly involved in the complement and coagulation systems. The decrease in APP transcript amounts correlated with lower protein abundance in the secretome of infected cells, as shown by proteomics, and also occurred in the presence of APP inducers (IL-6 or IL-1b). The results also suggest that long-term Listeria infection affects lipid metabolism pathways. Collectively, these results reveal that long-term infection with L. monocytogenes profoundly deregulates the innate immune functions of hepatocytes, which could generate an environment favorable to the establishment of persistent infection.

Project description:The pathogenesis of viral myocarditis is a multifactorial process involving host genetics, viral genetics and the environment in which they interact. Here, we used a model of infection with Coxsackievirus B3 to characterize the contribution of host genetics to viral myocarditis. We determined heart CVB3 load in mice from a classical intercross between progenitors A/J (H2a) and B10.A-H2a (B10.A) of different genetic backgrounds but with a common H2 haplotype. Here we compare whole genome expression patterns in infected and uninfected A/J and B10.A mice in order to determine which gene expression programs are common or distinct to each strain. Total RNA obtained from hearts of 3 AJ, 3 B10.A(H2a), 3 CSS3 and 3 B6.chr3AJ that were infected or uninfected with CVB3(CG) at 400pfu/g and collected at day 4 post infection.

Project description:Small RNAs play a critical role in host-pathogen interaction. In insects, for instance, small RNA-mediated silencing or RNA interference (RNAi) represents the main antiviral defense system. However, the antiviral role of RNAi has not been clearly proven in higher vertebrates. On the contrary, it is well established that the cell response relies on the recognition of viral RNAs by host pattern recognition receptors (PRR) to trigger the activation of the interferon pathway. Based on this evidence, we wished to contribute to this research field by identifying and characterizing small non-coding RNAs produced in mammalian cells upon RNA virus infection. We focused on Sindbis virus (SINV), the prototypical arbovirus, which by definition, is able to infect both vertebrate hosts and invertebrate vectors and triggers the interferon pathway or RNAi, respectively. Taking advantage of large scale sequencing, we cloned and sequenced small RNAs from both mock and SINV-infected mammalian cells (HEK 293 and VERO). We identified a novel population of viral small RNAs (vsRNAs) that accumulate as 20 to 30 nt species during infection. We assessed that this viral small RNA population is modified in 3'end and derived from the activation of the cellular antiviral endoribonuclease RNaseL. Altogether our results indicate a potential role for the SINV-derived small RNAs in the host defense mechanism.

Project description:The severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic was characterized by increased pathogenicity in the elderly due to an early exacerbated innate host response. SARS-CoV is a zoonotic pathogen that entered the human population through an intermediate host like the palm civet. To prevent future introductions of zoonotic SARS-CoV strains and subsequent transmission into the human population, heterologous disease models are needed to test the efficacy of vaccines and therapeutics against both late human and zoonotic isolates. Here we show that both human and zoonotic SARS-CoV strains can infect cynomolgus macaques and resulted in radiological as well as histopathological changes similar to those seen in mild human cases. Viral replication was higher in animals infected with a late human phase isolate compared to a zoonotic isolate. Host responses to the three SARS-CoV strains were similar and only apparent early during infection with the majority of genes associated with interferon signalling pathways.This study characterizes critical disease models in the evaluation and licensure of therapeutic strategies against SARS-CoV for human use 4 strains, time course, lungs

Project description:All major types of interferon (IFN) efficiently inhibit hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication in vitro and in vivo. Remarkably, HCV replication is not sensitive to IFN? in the hepatoma cell line Huh6, despite an intact signaling pathway. We performed transcriptome analyses between Huh6 and Huh-7 to identify effector genes of the IFN? response and thereby identified the DExD/H box helicase DDX60L as a restriction factor of HCV replication. DDX60L and its homolog DDX60 were both induced upon viral infection and IFN treatment in primary human hepatocytes. However, exclusively DDX60L knockdown increased HCV replication in Huh-7 cells, and rescued HCV replication from type II IFN as well as type I and III IFN treatment, suggesting that DDX60L is an important effector protein of the innate immune response against HCV. DDX60L had no impact on replication of hepatitis A virus (HAV), but severely impaired production of lentiviral vectors, arguing for a potential antiretroviral activity. Detection of endogenous DDX60L protein turned out to be difficult due to instability. DDX60L knockdown did not alter interferon stimulated gene (ISG) induction after IFN treatment, suggesting that it is a direct effector of the innate immune response. It most likely inhibits viral RNA replication, since we found no impact of DDX60L on translation or stability of HCV subgenomic replicons, nor additional impact on entry and assembly of infectious virus. Similar to its homolog DDX60, DDX60L had a moderate impact on retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-dependent activation of innate immunity arguing for additional functions in the sensing of viral RNA. Gene Expression was compared between two cell lines, Huh6 and Huh7, under interferon-gamma or interferon-alpha treatment. We intended to identify genes that are more strongly upregulated in Huh-7 than in Huh6 in response to interferon treatment.

Project description:This dataset details the time-dependent response of human Huh7 hepatoma cells to type I and type III IFN. Despite activating similar signaling cascades, the type I and type III interferons (IFNs) differ in their ability to antagonize viral replication. However, it is not clear whether these cytokines induce unique antiviral states, particularly in the liver, where the clinically important hepatitis B and C viruses cause persistent infection. Here, microarray-based gene expression analysis is combined with mechanistic studies of signaling pathways to dynamically characterize the transcriptional responses induced by these cytokines in Huh7 hepatoma cells and primary human hepatocytes. Type I and III IFNs differed greatly in their level of interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) induction with a clearly detectable hierarchy (IFN-M-NM-2 > IFN-M-NM-1 > IFN-M-NM-;3 > IFN-M-NM-;1 > IFN-M-NM-;2). This hierarchy resulted in widely varying numbers of differentially expressed genes when quantified using common statistical thresholds, even though individual IFNs did not appear to regulate unique sets of genes. The kinetic profiles of IFN-induced gene expression were also qualitatively similar with the important exception of IFN-M-NM-1. While stimulation with either IFN-M-NM-2 or IFN-M-NM-;s resulted in a similar long-lasting ISG induction, IFN-M-NM-1 signaling peaked early after stimulation then declined due to a negative feedback mechanism. The quantitative expression hierarchy and unique kinetics of IFN-M-NM-1 suggest different roles for individual IFNs in the immune response, and help explain previously observed differences in antiviral activity. Huh7 cells were seeded into 6-well plates at the density of 3x10^5 cells/well and cultured overnight before stimulation with either 500 U/ml of IFN-M-NM-1 or IFN-M-NM-2, or 10 ng/ml of IFN-M-NM-;1, IFN-M-NM-;2, or IFN-M-NM-;3. Total RNA was harvested and isolated at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 12 and 24 hours post-incubation using RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen) following the Affymetrix GeneChip protocol of the Keck Affymetrix Resource facility at Yale University. IFN incubation at each time point was performed in duplicate. All subsequent processing, hybridization to the Illumina HumanHT-12 microarray, and quality control analyses were carried out by the Yale Center for Genome Analysis using standard protocols.

Project description:During HIV-1 infection, there is a massive perturbation of host gene expression, but as yet, genome-wide studies have not identified host genes affecting HIV-1 replication in lymphatic tissue, the primary site of virus-host interactions. In this study, we isolated RNA from the inguinal lymph nodes of 22 HIV-1-infected individuals and utilized a microarray approach to identify host genes critically important for viral replication in lymphatic tissue by examining gene expression associated with viral load. Strikingly, ~95% of the transcripts (558) in this data set (592 transcripts total) were negatively associated with HIV-1 replication. Genes in this subset (1) inhibit cellular activation/proliferation (ex.: TCFL5, SOCS5 and SCOS7, KLF10), (2) promote heterochromatin formation (ex.: HIC2, CREBZF, ZNF148/ZBP-89), (3) increase collagen synthesis (ex.: PLOD2, POSTN, CRTAP), and (4) reduce cellular transcription and translation. Potential anti-HIV-1 restriction factors were also identified (ex.: NR3C1, HNRNPU, PACT). Only ~5% of the transcripts (34) were positively associated with HIV-1 replication. Paradoxically, nearly all these genes function in innate and adaptive immunity, particularly highlighting a heightened interferon system. The predominance of negative correlations as well as the disconnect between host defenses and viral load point to the importance of genes that regulate target cell activation and genes that code for potentially new restriction factors as determinants of viral load rather than conventional host defenses. Total RNA was isolated from the inguinal lymph nodes of 22 HIV-1-infected subjects at different clinical stages (and varying viral loads) and prepared for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays. Replicate arrays were performed for lymph node samples to minimize assay noise and host genes critically important for viral replication in lymphatic tissue were identified by examining gene expression and its association with viral load. Replicates were not performed for samples WB91 and TS35 due to limited amounts of biomaterial.
