Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles Evoke Proinflammatory Response during Murine Norovirus Infection Despite Having Minimal Effects on Virus Replication.

ABSTRACT: Noroviruses (NoV) have enhanced tropism for the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and are the major cause of nonbacterial gastroenteritis in humans. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) used as food additives, dietary supplements, and cosmetics accumulate in the GI tract. We investigated the effect anatase TiO2 NPs on NoV replication and host response during virus infection, using murine norovirus (MNV-1) infection of RAW 264.7 macrophages. Pretreatment with 20 ?g/ml anatase NPs significantly reduced the viability of macrophages alone or during virus infection, but did not alter virus replication. In contrast, pre-incubation with 2 ?g/ml anatase NPs reduced virus replication fivefold at 48 h. The presence of anatase NPs during MNV-1 infection evoked a pro-inflammatory response, as measured by a significant increase in expression of cytokines, including IL-6, IFN-?, TNF? and the TGF?1. No genotoxic insults due to anatase TiO2 NPs alone or to their presence during MNV-1 infection were detected. This study highlights important safety considerations related to NP exposure of the GI tract in individuals infected with noroviruses or other foodborne viruses.

Project description:UnlabelledMany viruses replicate most efficiently in specific phases of the cell cycle, establishing or exploiting favorable conditions for viral replication, although little is known about the relationship between caliciviruses and the cell cycle. Microarray and Western blot analysis of murine norovirus 1 (MNV-1)-infected cells showed changes in cyclin transcript and protein levels indicative of a G1 phase arrest. Cell cycle analysis confirmed that MNV-1 infection caused a prolonging of the G1 phase and an accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 phase. The accumulation in G0/G1 phase was caused by a reduction in cell cycle progression through the G1/S restriction point, with MNV-1-infected cells released from a G1 arrest showing reduced cell cycle progression compared to mock-infected cells. MNV-1 replication was compared in populations of cells synchronized into specific cell cycle phases and in asynchronously growing cells. Cells actively progressing through the G1 phase had a 2-fold or higher increase in virus progeny and capsid protein expression over cells in other phases of the cell cycle or in unsynchronized populations. These findings suggest that MNV-1 infection leads to prolonging of the G1 phase and a reduction in S phase entry in host cells, establishing favorable conditions for viral protein production and viral replication. There is limited information on the interactions between noroviruses and the cell cycle, and this observation of increased replication in the G1 phase may be representative of other members of the Caliciviridae.ImportanceNoroviruses have proven recalcitrant to growth in cell culture, limiting our understanding of the interaction between these viruses and the infected cell. In this study, we used the cell-culturable MNV-1 to show that infection of murine macrophages affects the G1/S cell cycle phase transition, leading to an arrest in cell cycle progression and an accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 phase. Furthermore, we show that MNV replication is enhanced in the G1 phase compared to other stages of the cell cycle. Manipulating the cell cycle or adapting to cell cycle responses of the host cell is a mechanism to enhance virus replication. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a norovirus interacting with the host cell cycle and exploiting the favorable conditions of the G0/G1 phase for RNA virus replication.

Project description:Interventions: This study is a cross-over design, including only healthy volunteers. A cross-over design was chosen because it is the most appropriate design for this study: it will reduce the individual differences by allowing every subject to be his own control. This study will be done in 4 weeks and include 2 periods. The volunteers will be randomized in two groups: one group will start with the intervention period and the other one will start with the control period. After, these 2 weeks of intervention or control periods, the volunteers will start the control period and intervention period respectively for another 2 weeks. The time of exposure is 2 weeks. Indeed, it takes 5 to 7 days for the turnover of the epithelial cells in the gut. This will ensure the exposure of all the cells of the luminal surface of the colon. The control period, is meant to reduce to a minimum the ingestion of E171 in order to have all the volunteers to start the same level of E171. During this period the volunteers will receive a list of products to avoid like cookies, chewing gum, certain toothpaste that are known to contain a significant amount of E171. The intervention period, is meant to control the amount of E171 that the volunteers will ingest. A concentration, 0.82 mg/kg bw/day, corresponding to a normal daily consumption will be given to the volunteers. The quantity will be adjusted to the body weight and dispersed in yoghurt that will be eaten at breakfast, lunch and dinner. In order to verify the compliance of the subjects, once in every period the subjects will prepare a package that include exactly what they ate and drank all day. This food package will be mixed and tested for TiO2 content. Primary outcome(s): The primary outcome parameters are differences in transcriptomic markers after consumption of food additive E171. These outcomes in humans will shed light on the relevance of markers identified in preclinical studies, and how the animal data on the risk of facilitation of tumour growth can be extrapolated to humans Study Design: Randomized controlled trial, Single blinded (masking used), N/A , unknown, Crossover
