Host HDAC4 regulates the antiviral response by inhibiting the phosphorylation of IRF3.

ABSTRACT: Class II HDACs, such as HDAC4, are critical regulators of the immune response in various immune cells; however, its role in innate immunity remains largely unknown. Here, we report that the overexpression of HDAC4 suppresses the production of type I interferons triggered by pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs). HDAC4 repressed the translocation of transcription factor IRF3 to the nucleus, thereby decreasing IRF3-mediated IFN-? expression. In particular, we also determined that HDAC4 can be phosphorylated and simultaneously block the phosphorylation of IRF3 at Ser386 and Ser396 by TBK1 and IKK?, respectively, by interacting with the kinase domain of TBK1 and IKK?. Furthermore, IFN-? may stimulate the expression of HDAC4. Our findings suggest that HDAC4 acts as a regulator of PRR signaling and is a novel mechanism of negative feedback regulation for preventing an over-reactive innate immune response.

Project description:The phosphatase Cdc25A plays an important role in cell cycle regulation by dephosphorylating its substrates, such as cyclin-dependent kinases. In this study, we demonstrate that Cdc25A negatively regulates RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling. We found that ectopic expression of Cdc25A in 293T cells inhibits the activation of beta interferon (IFN-?) induced by Sendai virus and poly(I·C), while knockdown of Cdc25A enhances the transcription of IFN-? stimulated by RNA virus infection. The inhibitory effect of Cdc25A on the antiviral immune response is mainly dependent on its phosphatase activity. Data from a luciferase assay indicated that Cdc25A can inhibit TBK1-mediated activation of IFN-?. Further analysis indicated that Cdc25A can interact with TBK1 and reduce the phosphorylation of TBK1 at S172, which in turn decreases the phosphorylation of its downstream substrate IRF3. Consistently, knockdown of Cdc25A upregulates the phosphorylation of both TBK1-S172 and IRF3 in Sendai virus-infected or TBK1-transfected 293T cells. In addition, we confirmed that Cdc25A can directly dephosphorylate TBK1-S172-p. These results demonstrate that Cdc25A inhibits the antiviral immune response by reducing the active form of TBK1. Using herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection, an IFN-? reporter assay, and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), we demonstrated that Cdc25A can also inhibit DNA virus-induced activation of IFN-?. Using a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection assay, we confirmed that Cdc25A can repress the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR)-mediated antiviral immune response and influence the antiviral status of cells. In conclusion, we demonstrate that Cdc25A negatively regulates the antiviral immune response by inhibiting TBK1 activity.IMPORTANCE The RLR-mediated antiviral immune response is critical for host defense against RNA virus infection. However, the detailed mechanism for balancing the RLR signaling pathway in host cells is not well understood. We found that the phosphatase Cdc25A negatively regulates the RNA virus-induced innate immune response. Our studies indicate that Cdc25A inhibits the RLR signaling pathway via its phosphatase activity. We demonstrated that Cdc25A reduces TBK1 activity and consequently restrains the activation of IFN-? transcription as well as the antiviral status of nearby cells. We showed that Cdc25A can also inhibit DNA virus-induced activation of IFN-?. Taken together, our findings uncover a novel function and mechanism for Cdc25A in regulating antiviral immune signaling. These findings reveal Cdc25A as an important negative regulator of antiviral immunity and demonstrate its role in maintaining host cell homeostasis following viral infection.
