Project description:This study demonstrates quantitative and qualitative differences between type I IFN signatures in autoimmunity and viral infection using purified CD4pos T cells and CD16pos- and CD16neg-monocyte subsets. We were able to discriminate between cell-specific viral response signatures and the pathogenically amplified IFN signatures observed in autoimmunity. The differences were of both a qualitative and quantitative nature, as the signatures in the patients with SLE were characterized by much more complexly compiled gene patterns with increased absolute gene expression levels.

Project description:Interferonopathies drive autoimmunity but can also impair host responses to pathogens including viral infection. To better understand viral susceptibility of patients with STAT1 gain-of-function (GOF) mutations, we generated conditional-knockin mouse models to elucidate disease mechanisms and relevance of different immune subsets. Virally infected Stat1-GOF mice exhibited impaired early IFN-γ production from innate lymphocytes, and lethality due to excess prolonged multi-cytokine production. The presence of the Stat1-GOF allele resulted in premature usage of interferon-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3) over the normal Stat4/AP-1 dependent transcriptomic program in activated innate lymphocytes. Administration of anti-IFN-γantibodies in wild-type (WT) mice after infection phenocopied Stat1-GOF mice presenting exaggerated inflammation despite viral control. Conversely, early administration of exogenous IFN-γ to infected Stat1-GOF mice prevented lethality and exaggerated cytokine response.Although Stat1-GOF mutations facilitate IFN-γ-mediated autoimmunity, early IFN-γ response to viral infection via a normal Stat4 program was impaired, leading to overcompensated inflammatory responses in Stat1-GOF mice.

Project description:In contrast to pathogenic HIV and SIV infection of humans and macaques, SIV infection of sooty mangabeys (SMs) is typically non-pathogenic despite high virus replication. A key feature of primary SIV infection of SMs is a strong type I interferon (IFN-I) response, characterized by massive up-regulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISG), followed by rapid resolution during the acute-to-chronic phase transition and establishment of an immune quiescent state that persists throughout the chronic infection. Based on these observations we hypothesized that low levels of IFN-I signaling may be instrumental in preventing chronic immune activation and disease progression in SIV-infected SMs. We used microarrays to characterize gene expression changes induced by IFNalpha treatment. To directly assess the effects of an experimentally-induced augmentation of IFN-I signaling in chronically SIV-infected SMs, we administered recombinant rhesus macaque IFNalpha2-IgFc (rmIFNα2) to eight naturally SIV-infected SMs weekly for 16 weeks and longitudinally monitored viral load, lymphocyte counts, immune activation, SIV-specific CD8+ T-cell responses, and gene expression profile. Administration of rmIFNα2 was bioactive in vivo with gene expression profiling revealing a strong upregulation of numerous ISGs in the blood of treated animals.

Project description:Alterations to monocyte output and function occur during infections that drive classical Th1-type inflammation. The degree to which the circulating monocyte compartment responds to infections that initiate alternative types of response is poorly understood. Here we describe a unique state of the monocyte compartment associated with type 2-favouring intestinal helminths. The adapted monocyte state in a type 2 setting was associated with an interferon-signature. Acquisition of this interferon-induced state provided helminth-infected animals with unappreciated systemic protection against secondary bacterial infection, but still allowed for the development of effective type-2 immunity. This pathway of monocyte education was completely distinct from that described in Th1-settings and involved an endogenous-bacteria-mediated induction of type I IFN that led to adaptive lymphocyte-dependent IFN- priming of monocytes. These findings reveal an IFN-driven mechanism of monocytes education that enables the host to be simultaneously protected against type-2 infections at barrier sites and type-1 infections in the circulation.

"Autocrine and paracrine interferon signalling as ‘ring vaccination’ and ‘contact tracing’ strategies to suppress virus infection in a host"
G. Michael Lavigne, Hayley Russell, Barbara Sherry and Ruian Ke
DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2020.3002
Comment:
This model is based on the ordinary differential equations of the non-spatial model of well-mixed viral infection stated in the manuscript (Eq. 2.1 in the article).
Abstract:
The innate immune response, particularly the interferon response, represents a first line of defence against viral infections. The interferon molecules produced from infected cells act through autocrine and paracrine signalling to turn host cells into an antiviral state. Although the molecular mechanisms of IFN signalling have been well characterized, how the interferon response collectively contribute to the regulation of host cells to stop or suppress viral infection during early infection remain unclear. Here, we use mathematical models to delineate the roles of the autocrine and the paracrine signalling, and show that their impacts on viral spread are dependent on how infection proceeds. In particular, we found that when infection is well-mixed, the paracrine signalling is not as effective; by contrast, when infection spreads in a spatial manner, a likely scenario during initial infection in tissue, the paracrine signalling can impede the spread of infection by decreasing the number of susceptible cells close to the site of infection. Furthermore, we argue that the interferon response can be seen as a parallel to population-level epidemic prevention strategies such as ‘contact tracing’ or ‘ring vaccination’. Thus, our results here may have implications for the outbreak control at the population scale more broadly.

Project description:Type I interferons are critical anti-viral cytokines during virus infections and have also been implicated in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The secretion of type I interferon of pDCs is modulated by Siglec-H, a DAP12 associated receptor on pDCs. We showed that Siglec-H deficient pDCs produce more of the type I interferon IFN-α in vitro and that Siglec-H ko mice produce more IFN-α after murine cytomegalovirus (mCMV) infection in vivo, leading to efficient clearance of the virus. Furthermore, ageing Siglec-H ko mice showed a mild form of systemic autoimmunity. In contrast, Siglec-H ko mice developed a severe form of systemic lupus-like autoimmune disease with strong kidney nephritis several weeks after a single mCMV infection. This induction of systemic autoimmune disease after virus infection in Siglec-H ko mice was accompanied by a type I interferon signature and fully dependent on type I interferon signaling. These results show that Siglec-H normally serves as modulator of type I interferon responses after infection with a persistent virus and thereby prevents induction of autoimmune disease. For microarray experiments gene expression profiles of total splenic cells from two wt and Siglec-H ko mice 26 weeks after infection with luciferase expressing murine Cytomegalovirus (5x105 pfu) or from two uninfected wt and Siglec-H ko control mice were analyzed

Project description:Impaired type I interferon (IFN) responses are predictive of severe disease during pulmonary coronavirus infection. Insufficient IFN-responsiveness is associated with viremia and hypercytokinemia, however the resolution of IFN-dependent innate immune responses in the lungs remains limited. Here, we aimed to elucidate the early dynamics of antiviral immunity and define the IFN-dependent mechanisms limiting viral spread during pulmonary infection with the murine coronavirus A59 (M-CoV-A59), a beta-coronavirus. Combining high-resolution transcriptomic analysis and genetic attenuation of interferon signaling, we delineated IFN-dependent cell-intrinsic and population-based transcriptional changes that determined viral replication and inflammatory maturation, respectively.

Project description:The antiviral immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection can limit viral spread and prevent development of pneumonic COVID-19. However, the protective immunological response associated with successful viral containment in the upper airways remain unclear. Here, we combine a multiomics approach with longitudinal sampling to reveal temporally resolved protective immune signatures in non-pneumonic and ambulatory SARS-CoV-2 infected patients and associate specific immune trajectories with upper airway viral containment. We see a distinct systemic rather than local immune state associated with viral containment, characterized by interferon stimulated gene (ISG) upregulation across circulating immune cell subsets in non-pneumonic SARS-CoV2 infection. We report reduced cytotoxic potential of Natural Killer (NK) and T cells, and an immune-modulatory monocyte phenotype with protective immunity in COVID-19. Together, we show protective immune trajectories in SARS-CoV2 infection, which have important implications for patient prognosis and the development of immunomodulatory therapies.
