Project description:The impact of global climate change on the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases is the subject of extensive debate. The transmission of mosquito-borne viral diseases is particularly complex, with climatic variables directly affecting many parameters associated with the prevalence of disease vectors. While evidence shows that warmer temperatures often decrease the extrinsic incubation period of an arthropod-borne virus (arbovirus), exposure to cooler temperatures often predisposes disease vector mosquitoes to higher infection rates. RNA interference pathways are essential to antiviral immunity in the mosquito; however, few experiments have explored the effects of temperature on the RNAi machinery. Total small RNAs (miRNAs, siRNAs, piRNAs, etc.) were isolated and sequenced from the heads of sensor strain Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, or from the whole bodies of CHIKV-infected Aedes albopictus mosquitoes 8 hours post infection. Mosquitoes were grown at 18C or 28C in replicates of 1 (Ae. aegypti) or 3 (Ae. albopictus).

Project description:Mosquitoes serve as medically significant vectors for transmitting various arboviruses. The mosquito midgut is both the digestive organ and primary infection site via viral bloodmeals, and the midgut cells show heterogeneity on virus-vector interactions. Rapidly developed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technologies allow to characterize midgut physiology and viral infection dynamics at cellular solution. At present, scRNA-seq studies about mosquito midgut cell atlas are still limited and lack established protocols for cellular isolation. Therefore, we developed and employed a compatible microwell-based scRNA-seq protocol on four important mosquito species including Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, Culex pipiens pallens and Culex tritaeniorhynchus and successfully established their midgut cell atlases pre- and post-bloodmeal. Further, we performed scRNA-seq experiments on DENV-infected Ae. aegypti to characterize the viral infection dynamics at single-cell solution.

Project description:Aedes albopictus shows a rapid global expansion and dramatic vectorial capacity for various arboviruses, thus posing a severe threat to global health. Although many noncoding RNAs have been confirmed to play functional roles in various biological processes in Ae. albopictus, the roles of circRNA remain a mystery. In the present study, we first performed high-throughput circRNA sequencing in Ae. albopictus. Then, we identified a cysteine desulfurase (CsdA) superfamily gene-originated circRNA, namely, aal-circRNA-407, which was the third most abundant circRNA in adult females and displayed a fat body highly expressed manifestation and blood feeding-dependent onset. siRNA-mediated knockdown of circRNA-407 resulted in a decrease in the number of developing follicles and a reduction in follicle size post blood meal. Furthermore, we demonstrated that circRNA-407 can act as a sponge of aal-miR-9a-5p to promote the expression of its target gene Foxl and eventually regulate ovarian development. Our study is the first to report a functional circRNA in mosquitoes, expanding our current understanding of important biological roles in mosquitoes and providing an alternative genetic strategy for mosquito control.

Project description:Aedes albopictus shows a rapid global expansion and dramatic vectorial capacity for various arboviruses. Mosquitoes display distinct sexual dimorphisms，only adult females consume blood meals to complete ovarian follicle development. Therefore, cyclic reproduction in female mosquitoes serves as a foundation for the transmission of numerous disease-causing pathogens. Aedes have an expansion of the piRNA biogenesis genes, indicated that piRNA may play multiple functional roles in mosquitoes. Although the antiviral function of piRNA pathway in mosquitoes has been extensively studied, the role of piRNAs in mosquito reproduction remain to be further understood. In the present study, we first profiled the characteristics of sex-biased piRNAs in adult Ae.albopictus. Then, we identified a female biased piRNA (Aalpi18529) in adult females, that was highly expressed in ovaries at blood feeding-dependent termination, and depended on PIWI5 and ago3 mediated biogenesis. Aalpi18529 overexpression suppressed ovarian development, and reduced fertility and fecundity in adult females post-bloodmeal. Furthermore, we demonstrated that Aalpi18529 can effectively repress its direct target, growth arrest and DNA-damage-inducible protein 45a (GADD45A), and eventually regulates ovarian development via the Gadd45a-mediated JNK-dependent nurse cell apoptosis pathway. Our study is the first to report an endogenous piRNA, which trigger silencing of an important protein-coding gene by posttranscriptional regulation in mosquitoes, expanding our current understanding of the important and multiple roles of piRNAs in biological processes in Ae. albopictus.

Project description:Aedes mosquitoes transmit pathogenic arthropod-borne (arbo) viruses, putting nearly half the world’s population at risk. Blocking virus replication in mosquitoes rather than in humans serves as a promising approach to prevent arbovirus transmission, which requires in-depth knowledge of mosquito immunity. By integrating multi-omics data, we identified that heat shock factor 1 (Hsf1) regulates eight small heat shock protein (sHsp) genes within one topological associated domain. This Hsf1-sHsp cascade acts as an early response against chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection and shows pan-antiviral activity in three vector mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, and Anopheles gambiae. We then assessed the baseline expression of sHsp genes in different tissues of female Ae. aegypti using RNA-seq, and we observed a highly dynamic expression pattern of sHsp genes that varied dramatically across different tissues. Interestingly, sHsp genes were expressed at low levels in two main barrier tissues, the midgut and salivary glands, compared to other tissues such as the crop. Importantly, activation of Hsf1 led to a reduced CHIKV infection rate in adult Ae. aegypti mosquitoes, demonstrating Hsf1 as a promising target for the development of novel intervention strategies to limit arbovirus transmission by mosquitoes.

Project description:The dengue virus (DENV) cause frequent epidemics infecting ~390 million people annually in over 100 countries. There are no approved vaccines or antiviral drugs for treatment of infected patients. However, there is a novel approach to control transmission of DENV by the mosquito vectors, Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus, using Wolbachia symbiont. The wMelPop strain of Wolbachia suppresses DENV transmission and shortens the mosquito life span. However, the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. To clarify this mechanism, either naïve Ae. albopictus (C6/36) or wMelPop-C6/36 cells were infected with DENV2. Analysis of host transcript profiles by RNAseq revealed that the presence of wMelPop had profound effects on mosquito host cell transcription in response to DENV2 infection. The viral RNA evolved from wMelPop-C6/36 contained low frequency mutations (~25%) within the coding region of transmembrane domain-1 (TMD1) of E protein. Mutations with >97 % frequencies were distributed within other regions of E, NS5 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (NS5POL) domain, the TMDs of NS2A, NS2B, and NS4B. Moreover, while DENV2-infected naïve C6/36 cells showed syncytia formation, DENV2-infected wMelPop-C6/36 cells did not. The Wolbachia-induced mutant DENV2 can readily infect and replicate in naïve C6/36 cells; whereas, in the mutant DENV2- infected BHK-21 or Vero cells, the virus replication was delayed. In LLC-MK2 cells, the mutant failed to produce plaques. Additionally, in BHK-21 cells, many mutations in the viral genome reverted to WT and compensatory mutations in NS3 gene appeared. Our results suggest that wMelPop impacts significantly the interactions of DENV2 with mosquito and mammalian host cells.

Project description:Certain strains of the intracellular endosymbiont Wolbachia can strongly inhibit or block the transmission of viruses such as dengue by Aedes mosquitoes, and the mechanisms responsible are still not well understood. Direct infusion and liquid chromatography FT-ICR mass spectrometry based lipidomicse DIMS and LCMS analyses were conducted using Aedes albopictus Aa23 cells that were infected with the wMel and wMelPop strains of Wolbachia compared to uninfected cells. Substantial shifts in the cellular lipid profile were apparent in the presence of Wolbachia. Most significantly, sphingolipids were depleted across all classes, and some reduction in diacylglyerol fatty acids and phosphatidylcholines was also observed. These lipid classes have previously been shown to be selectively enriched in DENV-infected mosquito cells, suggesting that Wolbachia may produce a cellular lipid environment that is antagonistic to viral replication. The data improve understanding of the intracellular interactions between Wolbachia and mosquitoes.

Project description:<p>Persistent infection of mosquito vectors is essential for the transmission of arboviruses, yet how these viruses produce sufficient progeny without compromising host cell fitness remains unclear. Arbovirus genomes exhibit suboptimal codon usage for both human and mosquito hosts, raising questions about how they achieve efficient translation in such distinct cellular environments. Using chikungunya virus (CHIKV) as a model, we conducted a temporal, genome-wide analysis of transcription, translation, and tRNA modifications in Aedes albopictus C6/36 cells. We found that, unlike in human cells, CHIKV infection does not manipulate the tRNA modification landscape in mosquitoes to overcome codon bias. Instead, viral persistence is marked by a progressive, virus-specific repression of CHIKV RNA translation, occurring alongside a recovery of host mRNA translation. This translational balance, established independently of the RNAi system, supports sustained viral production without major disruption to host gene expression. Our findings reveal a fine-tuned equilibrium in mosquito cells that allows the establishment of long-term CHIKV persistence through controlled viral protein synthesis.</p>
