Project description:Affymetrix HuGene ST 1.0 microarrays were used to study and compare gene expression in peripheral blood CD8+ T cells of human patients with Acute Infectious Mononucleosis (AIM; acute EBV infection) and during convalescence (CONV; 6-12 months after AIM visit). Blood samples were drawn from ten human patients with AIM and again during their covalescence (CONV). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated and cryopreserved. Paired AIM and CONV samples were thawed and CD8+ T cells purified with magnetic beads. RNA was isolated and processed for hybridization according to the Affymetrix protocol CD8+ T cells acute and convalescent phase of EBV infection (10 subjects)

Project description:Gene expression profiling was carried out on peripheral blood leukocytes from 14 healthy older adults. The primary research question is whether gene expression differs in individuals experiencing chronically high levels of social isolation (by UCLA Loneliness Scale) vs chronically low levels of social isolation. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression profiling was carried out on peripheral blood leukocytes from 14 healthy older adults.

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects >95% of the adult population with diverse outcomes ranging from benign latency to cancers and autoimmune diseases. Immunological control of EBV infection is known to be an important determinant of EBV infection outcomes. However, species-specific viral tropism and limited infection models have impeded mechanistic insights into early host–immune control of EBV infection. Here, we use ex vivo infection of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), rather than routinely used B cell enriched culture systems, to study immune and viral dynamics during primary EBV infection. We combined bulk RNA sequencing, EBV transcript enrichment, and flow cytometry to characterize cellular responses across Days 1, 7–8, and 14 post-infection. Early infection triggered a monocyte-specific antiviral response marked by changes in the expression of genes associated with lipid metabolism (LIPA, lysosomal acid lipase) and chemotaxis (CCR1 and CCR2). Inhibitors of LIPA increased EBV titers during primary infection, indicating that LIPA is part of an early monocyte-driven antiviral response. At later timepoints post-infection, donor-dependent variability in lymphoblastoid cell line (LCL) outgrowth was associated with divergent immune states. Donors that failed to generate LCLs demonstrated increased frequencies of CD8+ T cells and reduced numbers of regulatory T cells (CD4⁺CD25⁺FOXP3⁺). EBV transcriptomics revealed that LCL-failed donors exhibited elevated early lytic gene expression but did not establish a type III latency program. Our findings suggest that individual variations in immune cell composition and gene expression may account for differences in the immune response to EBV. These findings define temporal immune and viral signatures that predict transformation outcome and highlight intact PBMCs as a tractable model to study EBV pathogenesis in a genetically diverse, human-specific context.

Project description:Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is associated with numerous cancers including B cell lymphomas. In vitro, EBV transforms primary B cells into immortalized Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines (LCLs) which serves as a model to study the role of viral proteins in EBV malignancies. EBV induced cellular transformation is driven by viral proteins including EBV-Nuclear Antigens (EBNAs). EBNA-LP is important for the transformation of naïve but not memory B cells. While EBNA-LP was thought to promote gene activation by EBNA2, EBNA-LP Knock Out (LPKO) virus-infected cells express EBNA2-activated cellular genes efficiently. Therefore, a gap in knowledge exists as to what roles EBNA-LP plays in naïve B cell transformation. We developed a trans-complementation assay wherein transfection with wild-type EBNA-LP rescues the transformation of peripheral blood- and cord blood-derived naïve B cells by LPKO virus. Despite EBNA-LP phosphorylation sites being important in EBNA2 co-activation; neither phospho-mutant nor phospho-mimetic EBNA-LP was defective in rescuing naïve B cell outgrowth. However, we identified conserved leucine-rich motifs in EBNA-LP that were required for transformation of adult naïve and cord blood B cells. Because cellular PPAR-g coactivator (PGC) proteins use leucine-rich motifs to engage transcription factors including YY1, a key regulator of DNA looping and metabolism, we examined the role of EBNA-LP in engaging cellular transcription factors. We found a significant overlap between EBNA-LP and YY1 in ChIP-Seq data. By Cut&Run, YY1 peaks unique to WT compared to LPKO LCLs occur at more highly expressed genes. Moreover, Cas9 knockout of YY1 in primary B cells prior to EBV infection indicted YY1 to be essential for EBV-mediated transformation. We confirmed EBNA-LP and YY1and confirmed their biochemical association in LCLs by endogenous co-immunoprecipitation and. Moreover, we found that the EBNA-LP leucine-rich motifs were required for YY1 interaction in LCLs. Finally, we used Cas9 to knockout YY1 in primary total B cells and naïve B cells prior to EBV infection and found YY1 to be essential for EBV-mediated transformation. We propose that EBNA-LP engages YY1 through conserved leucine-rich motifs to promote EBV transformation of naïve B cells.
