IM015 - Influenza infection of C57BL6 and RIPK3 knock-out mice

ABSTRACT: This purpose of this experiment was to investigate the transcriptional differences between C57BL6, RIPK3 knock-out mice infected with influenza strain A/CA/04/2009 (H1N1) virus. Overview of Experiment: Groups of 6-8 week-old C57BL6 and RIPK3 knock-out mice were infected with influenza A/CA/04/2009 virus. Infections were done at 10^5 PFU or time-matched mock infected. Time points were 2 and 4 d.p.i. There were 2-3 animals/dose/time point. Lung samples were collected for virus load and transcriptional analysis. Weight loss and animal survival were also monitored.

Project description:Annually, influenza A viruses circulate the world causing wide-spread sickness, economic loss, and death. One way to better defend against influenza virus-induced disease may be to develop novel host-based therapies, targeted at mitigating viral pathogenesis through the management of virus-dysregulated host functions. However, mechanisms that govern aberrant host responses to influenza virus infection remain incompletely understood. We previously showed that the pandemic H1N1 virus influenza A/California/04/2009 (H1N1; CA04) has enhanced pathogenicity in the lungs of cynomolgus macaques relative to a seasonal influenza virus isolate (A/Kawasaki/UTK-4/2009 (H1N1; KUTK4)). Here, we used microarrays to identify host gene sequences that were highly differentially expressed (DE) in CA04-infected macaque lungs, and we employed a novel strategy M-bM-^@M-^S combining functional and pathway enrichment analyses, transcription factor binding site enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction data M-bM-^@M-^S to create a CA04 differentially regulated host response network. This network describes enhanced viral RNA sensing, immune cell signaling and cell cycle arrest in CA04-infected lungs, and highlights a novel, putative role for the MYC-associated zinc finger (MAZ) transcription factor in regulating these processes. Lung tissues used for microarray studies were obtained from 13 female cynomolgus macaques infected with influenza viruses. 6 animals were inoculated with influenza A/California/04/2009 and 6 animals were inoculated with influenza A/Kawasaki/UTK-4/2009. 1 uninfected animal served as a negative control. On days 3 and 7 post-infection (p.i.), lung tissues were harvested from the middle and lower lung lobes of 3animals in each infection group (N = 26 total samples were collected, 3 samples were removed from the study due to low RNA quality). All but 3 samples were collected from visually apparent virus-induced gross lesions. Two lung tissue samples were obtained from middle and lower lobes of the uninfected animal at the start of the experiment.

Project description:While pandemic 2009 H1N1 influenza A viruses were responsible for numerous severe infections in humans, these viruses do not typically cause corresponding severe disease in mammalian models. However, the generation of a virulent 2009 H1N1 virus following serial lung passage in mice has allowed for the modeling of human lung pathology in this species. Genetic determinants of mouse-adapted 2009 H1N1 viral pathogenicity have been identified, but the molecular and signaling characteristics of the host response following infection with this adapted virus have not been described. Here, we compared the gene-expression response following infection of mice with A/CA/04/2009 (CA/04) or the virulent mouse-adapted strain (MA-CA/04). Microarray analysis revealed that increased pathogenicity of MA-CA/04 was associated with: (1) early and sustained inflammatory and interferon response that could be driven in part by interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) and increased NFM-oM-^AM-+B activation, as well as inhibition of the negative regulator TRIM24, (2) early and persistent infiltration of immune cells, including inflammatory macrophages, and (3) the absence of activation of lipid metabolism later in infection, that may be mediated by nuclear receptors inhibition, including PPARG, HNF1A and 4A, with pro-inflammatory consequences. Further investigation of these signatures in the host response to other H1N1 viruses of varied pathogenicity confirmed their general relevance for virulence of influenza virus and suggested that lung response to MA-CA/04 virus was similar to that following lethal H1N1 r1918 influenza virus. This study links for the first time differential activation of IRFs, nuclear receptors, and macrophage infiltration with influenza virulence in vivo. Six-to-eight-week-old female BALB/c mice were anesthetized and inoculated with 50 M-NM-<l of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; Mock) or with 10^6 pfu of virus in a 50 M-NM-<l volume. Nine animals per condition group were used for tarray analysis, two or three animals per time point. There were seven condition groups: A/California/04/2009, MA1-A/California/04/2009, A/Mexico/4482/09, A/Brisbane/59/07, A/New Jersey/8/76, the reconstructed 1918 virus and timeM-bM-^@M-^Smatched mocks.

Project description:Background: The 2009 pandemic H1N1 influenza virus emerged in swine and quickly became a major global health threat. In mouse, non-human primate, and swine infection models, the pH1N1 virus efficiently replicates in the lung and induces pro-inflammatory host responses; however, whether similar or different cellular pathways were impacted by pH1N1 virus across independent infection models remains to be further defined. To address this, we have performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis of acute host responses to a single pH1N1 influenza virus, A/California/04/2009 (CA04), in the lung of mice, macaques and swine. Results: Despite similarities in the clinical course, we observed differences in inflammatory molecules elicited, and the kinetics of their gene expression changes across all three species. The retinoid X receptor (RXR) signaling pathway controlling pro-inflammatory and metabolic processes was differentially regulated during infection in each species, though the heterodimeric RXR partner, pathway associated signaling molecules, and gene expression patterns differed in each species. Conclusions: By comparing transcriptional changes in the context of clinical and virological measures, we identified differences in the host transcriptional response to pH1N1 virus across independent models of acute infection. Antiviral resistance and the emergence of new influenza viruses have placed more focus on developing drugs that target the immune system. Underlying overt clinical disease are molecular events that suggest therapeutic targets identified in one host may not be appropriate in another. The goal of this experiment was to use global gene expression profiling to understand swine lung host responses to pandemic H1N1 influenza A/Californica/04/2009 (CA04) virus infection and compare acute host responses across independent species. Four-week-old crossbred pigs (Sus Scrofa) were inoculated intratracheally with either 10^6 TCID50/pig egg-derived 2009 pandemic influenza A/California/04/2009 virus (n = 5) or mock inoculated with non-infectious cell culture supernatant (control; n = 4). Animals were euthanized on day 7 post-infection and lung samples were used for microarray.
