Genome wide host gene expression analysis in chicken lungs infected with avian influenza viruses

ABSTRACT: The mechanisms responsible for the molecular pathogenesis of the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) or low pathogenic avian influenza virus (LPAIV) in avian species remain poorly understood. Thus, global immune response of chickens infected with HPAIV H5N1 (A/duck/India/02CA10/2011) and LPAIV H9N2 (A/duck/India/249800/2010) viruses was studied using microarray to identify crucial host genetic components responsive to these infection. HPAIV H5N1 induced excessive mRNA expression of cytokines (IFNA, OASL, MX1, RSAD2, IFITM5, GBP 1, IL1B, IL18, IL22, IL13, IL12B, CCL4, CCL9, CCL10, CX3CL1 etc) in lung tissues. This excessive cytokine response (cytokine storms) may cause tissue damage and high mortality in chickens. In contrast, the expression levels of most of the cytokines remained unchanged in the lungs of LPAIV H9N2 virus infected chickens. This study indicated the relationship between host cytokines response and their roles in pathogenesis in chickens infected with HPAIVs.

Project description:Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) is a permanent threat due to its capacity to cross species barriers and generate severe infections and high mortality in humans. Recent findings have highlighted the potential role of PB1-F2, a small accessory influenza protein, in the pathogenesis process mediated by HPAIV in mammals. In this study, using a recombinant H5N1 HPAIV (wt) and its PB1-F2-deleted mutant (M-NM-^TF2), we studied the effects of PB1-F2 in a chicken model. Unexpectedly, when using low inoculation dose we observed that the wt-infected chickens had a higher survival rate than the M-NM-^TF2-infected chickens, a feature that contrasts with what is usually observed in mammals. High inoculation dose had similar mortality rate for both viruses, and comparison of the bio-distribution of the two viruses indicated that the expression of PB1-F2 allows a better spreading of the virus within chicken embryos. Transcriptomic profiles of lungs and blood cells were characterized at two days post-infection in chickens inoculated with the wild type (wt) or the M-NM-^TF2 mutant viruses. In lungs, the expression of PB1-F2 during the infection induced pathways related to calcium signaling and repressed a large panel of immunological functions. In blood cells, PB1-F2 was associated to a gene signature specific for mitochondrial dysfunction and down-modulated leucocytes activation. Finally we compared the effect of PB1-F2 in lungs of chickens and mice. We identified that gene signature associated to tissue damages is a PB1-F2 feature shared by the two species; by contrast, the early inhibition of immune response mediated by PB1-F2 observed in chickens is not seen in mice. In summary, our data suggest that PB1-F2 expression deeply affect the immune host response in chickens in a way that may attenuate pathogenicity, a feature differing from what was previously observed in mammal species. Three-condition experiment, virus-infected (wt or M-NM-^TF2) vs. Mock-infected chickens. Biological replicates: 2x5 control replicates, 5 wt replicates, 5 M-NM-^TF2 replicates.
