Innate immunity at mucosal surfaces: the IRE1-RIDD-RIG-I pathway.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have linked the ER stress sensor IRE1? with the RIG-I pathway, which triggers an inflammatory response upon detection of viral RNAs. In response to ER dysfunction, IRE1? cleaves mRNA into single-strand fragments that lack markers of self, which activate RIG-I. Certain microbial products from mucosal pathogens activate this pathway by binding IRE1? directly, and the discovery that IRE1 is amplified at mucosal surfaces by gene duplication suggests an important role for IRE1 in mucosal immunity. Here, we review evidence in support of this hypothesis, and propose a model wherein IRE1 surveys the integrity of the ER, acting as a guard receptor and a pattern recognition receptor, capable both of sensing cellular stress caused by microbial infection and of responding to pathogens directly.

Recent studies have linked the ER stress sensor IRE1α with the RIG-I pathway, which triggers an inflammatory response upon detection of viral RNAs. In response to ER dysfunction, IRE1α cleaves mRNA into single-strand fragments that lack markers of self, which activate RIG-I. Certain microbial products from mucosal pathogens activate this pathway by binding IRE1α directly, and the discovery that IRE1 is amplified at mucosal surfaces by gene duplication suggests an important role for IRE1 in mucos ...[more]

Project description:Retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I), a cytosolic pattern recognition receptor (PRR), can sense various RNA viruses, including the avian influenza virus (AIV) and infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), and trigger the innate immune response. Previous studies have shown that mammalian RIG-I (human and mice) and waterfowl RIG-I (ducks and geese) are essential for type I interferon (IFN) synthesis during AIV infection. Like ducks, pigeons are also susceptible to infection but are ineffective propagators and disseminators of AIVs, i.e., "dead end" hosts for AIVs and even highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI). Consequently, we sought to identify pigeon RIG-I and investigate its roles in the detection of A/Chicken/Shandong/ZB/2007 (H9N2) (ZB07), Gansu/Tianshui (IBDV TS) and Beijing/CJ/1980 (IBDV CJ-801) strains in chicken DF-1 fibroblasts or human 293T cells. Pigeon mRNA encoding the putative pigeon RIG-I analogs was identified. The exogenous expression of enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP)-tagged pigeon RIG-I and caspase activation and recruitment domains (CARDs), strongly induced antiviral gene (IFN-?, Mx, and PKR) mRNA synthesis, decreased viral gene (M gene and VP2) mRNA expression, and reduced the viral titers of ZB07 and IBDV TS/CJ-801 virus strains in chicken DF-1 cells, but not in 293T cells. We also compared the antiviral abilities of RIG-I proteins from waterfowl (duck and goose) and pigeon. Our data indicated that waterfowl RIG-I are more effective in the induction of antiviral genes and the repression of ZB07 and IBDV TS/CJ-801 strain replication than pigeon RIG-I. Furthermore, chicken melanoma differentiation associated gene 5(MDA5)/ mitochondrial antiviral signaling (MAVS) silencing combined with RIG-I transfection suggested that pigeon RIG-I can restore the antiviral response in MDA5-silenced DF-1 cells but not in MAVS-silenced DF-1 cells. In conclusion, these results demonstrated that pigeon RIG-I and CARDs have a strong antiviral ability against AIV H9N2 and IBDV in chicken DF-1 cells but not in human 293T cells.
