Project description:In an effort to identify mechanisms governing HIV-1 permissiveness in gut-homing Th17 cells, we analyzed the transcriptome of CCR6+ versus CCR6- T-cells exposed to the gut-homing inducer retinoic acid (RA) and performed functional validations in colon biopsies of HIV-infected individuals receiving ART (HIV+ART). Together, our results identify mTOR as a druggable key regulator of HIV permissiveness in gut-homing CCR6+ T-cells.

Project description:The intestinal environment facilitates HIV-1 infection via mechanisms involving the gut-homing vitamin A-derived retinoic acid (RA), which transcriptionally reprograms CD4+ T cells for increased HIV-1 replication/outgrowth. Consistently, colon-infiltrating CD4+ T cells carry replication-competent viral reservoirs in people with HIV-1 (PWH) receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART). Intriguingly, integrative infection in colon macrophages, a pool replenished by monocytes, represents a rare event in ART-treated PWH, thus questioning the effect of RA on macrophages. Here, we demonstrate that RA enhances R5 but not X4 HIV-1 replication in monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs). RNA sequencing, gene set variation analysis, and HIV interactor NCBI database interrogation reveal RA-mediated transcriptional reprogramming associated with metabolic/inflammatory processes and HIV-1 resistance/dependency factors. Functional validations uncover post-entry mechanisms of RA action including SAMHD1-modulated reverse transcription and CDK9/RNA polymerase II (RNAPII)-dependent transcription under the control of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). These results support a model in which macrophages residing in the intestine of ART-untreated PWH contribute to viral replication/dissemination in an mTOR-sensitive manner.

Project description:We previously demonstrated that Th1Th17 cells are highly permissive to HIV-1, whereas Th1 cells are relatively resistant. Here, we investigated molecular mechanisms underlying these differences. Superior HIV replication in Th1Th17 vs. Th1 cells was regulated by entry and post-entry mechanisms. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression signatures caracterizing Th1 cells from Th1Th17. Primary human Th1 (CXCR3+CCR6- phenotype) and Th1Th17 (CXCR3+CCR6- phenotype) CD4+ T-cells were isolated by flow cytometry from HIV-uninfected, healthy donors. Cells were stimulated via CD3/CD28 for 3 days. The RNA was extracted and hybridized on the GeneChipM-BM-. Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (Affymetrix).

Project description:We previously reported that CCR4+CCR6+Th17 cells are permissive to HIV, while CXCR3+CCR6- Th1 cells are relatively resistant. To identify molecular mechanisms underlying these differences, we performed a genome-wide transcriptional profiling in CXCR3+CCR6-Th1, CCR4+CCR6-Th2, CCR4+CCR6+Th17, and CXCR3+CCR6+Th1Th17 upon TCR triggering. Transcriptional differences between Th17 and Th1 were the most remarkable. HIV-DNA integration was highly efficient in Th17 versus Th1 upon exposure to both wild-type and VSV-G-pseudotyped HIV, indicative that post-entry mechanisms contribute to HIV permissiveness. 4 cell populations from up to 5 donors for a total of 19 samples.

Project description:Chemokine receptor CCR6 is a G-protein-coupled receptor that binds its high-affinity ligand, CCL20. Among the CD4+ T cells, Th17 and regulatory T cells express CCR6, which facilitates their migration in CCL20-enriched, inflamed tissue. Migration of CCR6+ T cells from secondary lymphoid tissues into inflamed tissues exposes them to a distinct metabolic microenvironment. What drives the metabolic adaptation of cells in these tissues and what contributes to their effector or regulatory function is not clearly understood. During colitis, increased gut production of CCL20 promotes the recruitment of these cells. We demonstrated that the intrinsic signaling of CCL20-CCR6 in CD4+ T cells promotes the differentiation of inflamatory Th1-like Th17 cells (T-bet+RORγt+) during colitis in both mouse models and humans. This signaling induces rapamycin-sensitive phosphorylation of PI3K, Akt, mTORC1, and STAT3 in a CCR6-dependent manner. RNA-seq and proteomics analysis revealed alterations in CCL20 during Th17 differentiation, affecting several metabolic pathways, including energy metabolism. CCL20 significantly increased glycolysis and inhibited oxidative phosphorylation, thereby driving the differentiation of pathogenic Th17 cells. Our findings suggest that alterations in CCR6-induced changes in Th17 metabolism offer an interesting therapeutic target for gut inflammation and autoimmunity.

Project description:Human Immunodeficiency Virus type-1 (HIV-1)-infected individuals show metabolic alterations of CD4 T cells through unclear mechanisms with undefined consequences. We analyzed the transcriptome of CD4 T cells from HIV-1 patients and revealed that elevated oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) pathway is associated with poor outcomes. Inhibition of OXPHOS by the FDA-approved drug metformin, which targets mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I, suppresses HIV-1 replication in human CD4 T cells and humanized mice. In patients, HIV-1 peak viremia positively correlates with the expression of NLRX1, a mitochondrial innate immune receptor. Quantitative proteomics and metabolic analyses reveal that NLRX1 enhances OXPHOS and glycolysis during HIV-1-infection of CD4 T cells to promote viral replication. At the mechanistic level, HIV infection induces the association of NLRX1 with the mitochondrial protein, FASTKD5, to promote the expression of mitochondrial respiratory complex components. This study uncovers the OXPHOS pathway in CD4 T cells as a target for HIV-1 therapy.

Project description:The mechanisms by which human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) circumvents cellular defense machinery to replicate and persist in cells are not fully understood. HIV accessory proteins play key roles in the HIV life cycle by altering host signaling pathways that are highly dependent on post-translational modification (PTM) events. Thus, the identification of HIV accessory protein host targets and their PTM status is critical to fully understand how HIV invades, avoids detection and replicates to spread infection. To date, a comprehensive characterization of HIV accessory protein host targets and modulation of their PTM status does not exist. The significant gap in knowledge regarding the identity and PTMs of HIV host targets is due, in part, to technological limitations. Through this study we sought to apply current mass spectrometry techniques to define mechanisms of viral protein action through identifying host protein interaction partners of Vpr and modulation of down-stream PTM based signaling pathways. Here we report identification and abundance dynamics of over 7,000 proteins and 28,000 phospho-peptides. By utilizing a novel, inducible HIV-1 CD4+ T-cell model system, we overcame challenges associated with synchronization and infection present in other models. This inducible HIV-1 model, in conjunction with state of the art quantitative multiplexed proteomics, allowed for accurate assessment of early protein and PTM dynamics associated with induction of HIV expression. This thorough characterization of Vpr interactions and PTM temporal dynamics, assessed by comparing the wild type with a Vpr deficient strain, deepens the understanding of how HIV circumvents immunity to hijack host cells. This study acts as a resource that lays the foundation for validating host proteins and important PTM based signaling pathways as viable intervention targets.

Project description:Reduced cancer incidence has been reported among type II diabetics treated with metformin. Metformin exhibits anti-proliferative and anti-neoplastic effects associated with inhibition of mTORC1, but the mechanisms are poorly understood. We provide the first genome-wide analysis of translational targets of canonical mTOR inhibitors (rapamycin and PP242) and metformin, revealing that metformin controls gene expression at the level of mRNA translation to an extent comparable to that of canonical mTOR inhibitors. Importantly, metformin's anti-proliferative activity can be explained by selective translational suppression of mRNAs encoding cell cycle regulators via the mTORC1/4E-BP pathway. Thus, metformin selectively inhibits mRNA translation of encoded proteins that promote neoplastic proliferation, motivating further studies of this compound and related biguanides in cancer prevention and treatment. MCF7 cells were treated with rapamycin, metformin or PP242 at concentrations that inhibited proliferation to 50% of control. Both cytoplasmic and polysome-associated mRNA was extracted from treatments and a vehicle treated control and probed with microarrays.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) is able to control HIV-1 viral replication, however long-lived latent infection in resting memory CD4+ T-cells persist. The mechanisms for establishment and maintenance of latent infection in resting memory CD4+ T-cells remain unclear. Previously we have shown that HIV-1 infection of resting CD4+ T-cells co-cultured with CD11c+ myeloid dendritic cells (mDC) produced a population of non-proliferating T-cells with latent infection. Here we asked whether different antigen presenting cells (APC), including subpopulations of DC and monocytes, were able to induce post-integration latent infection in resting CD4+ T-cells, and examined potential cell interactions that may be involved using RNA-seq. RESULTS: mDC (CD1c+), SLAN+ DC and CD14+ monocytes were most efficient in stimulating proliferation of CD4+ T-cells during syngeneic culture and in generating post-integration latent infection in non-proliferating CD4+ T-cells following HIV-1 infection of APC-T-cell co-cultures. In comparison, plasmacytoid DC (pDC) and B-cells did not induce latent infection in APC-T-cell co-cultures. We compared the RNA expression profiles of APC subpopulations that could and could not induce latency in non-proliferating CD4+ T-cells. Gene expression analysis, comparing the mDC, SLAN+ DC and CD14+ monocyte subpopulations to pDC identified 53 upregulated genes that encode proteins expressed on the plasma membrane that could signal to CD4+ T-cells via cell-cell interactions (32 genes), immune checkpoints (IC) (5 genes), T-cell activation (9 genes), regulation of apoptosis (5 genes), antigen presentation (1 gene) and through unknown ligands (1 gene). CONCLUSIONS: APC subpopulations from the myeloid lineage, specifically mDC subpopulations and CD14+ monocytes, were able to efficiently induce post-integration HIV-1 latency in non-proliferating CD4+ T-cells in vitro. Inhibition of key pathways involved in mDC-T-cell interactions and HIV-1 latency may provide novel targets to eliminate HIV latency. mRNA profiles of sorted, pure antigen presenting cells including, CD1c+ myleoid dendirtic cells (mDC), SLAN+ mDC, CD14+ monocytes and plasmacytoid DC (pDC), were generated using next generation sequencing in triplicate, using Illumina Illumina Hiseq 2000.
