Cholesterol-rich lipid rafts play an important role in the Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 replication cycle.

ABSTRACT: The Cyprinus herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) is a member of the new Alloherpesviridae virus family in the Herpesvirales order. CyHV-3 has been implicated in a large number of disease outbreaks in carp populations causing up to 100% mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate the requirement of cholesterol-rich lipid rafts in CyHV-3 entry and replication in carp cells. Plasma membrane cholesterol was depleted from common carp brain (CCB) cells with methyl-?-cyclodextrin (M?CD). Treated and non-treated cells were infected with CyHV-3 and virus binding and infection parameters were assessed using RT-qPCR, immunocytochemistry and virus titration. The effect of cholesterol reduction severely stunted virus entry in vitro, however after cholesterol replenishment virus entry and subsequent replication rates were similar to the control infection. Furthermore, cholesterol depletion did not significantly influence virus binding and the subsequent post-entry replication stage, however had an impact on virus egress. Comparative analysis of the lipid compositions of CyHV-3 and CCB membrane fractions revealed strong similarities between the lipid composition of the CyHV-3 and CCB lipid rafts. The results presented here show that cholesterol-rich lipid rafts are important for the CyHV-3 replication cycle especially during entry and egress.

Cholesterol-Rich Lipid Rafts in the Cellular Membrane Play an Essential Role in Avian Reovirus Replication.

Project description:Cholesterol is an essential component of lipid rafts in cellular plasma membranes. Although lipid rafts have been reported to have several functions in multiple stages of the life cycles of many different enveloped viruses, the mechanisms by which non-enveloped viruses, which lack outer lipid membranes, infect host cells remain unclear. In this study, to investigate the dependence of non-enveloped avian reovirus (ARV) infection on the integrity of cholesterol-rich membrane rafts, methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD) was used to deplete cellular membrane cholesterol at the ARV attachment, entry, and post-entry stages. Treatment with MβCD significantly inhibited ARV replication at both the entry and post-entry stages in a dose-dependent manner, but MβCD had a statistically insignificant effect when it was added at the attachment stage. Moreover, MβCD treatment markedly reduced syncytium formation, which occurs at a relatively late stage of the ARV life cycle and is involved in cell-cell transmission and release. Furthermore, the addition of exogenous cholesterol reversed the effects mentioned above. Colocalization data also showed that the ARV proteins σC, μNS, and p10 prefer to localize to cholesterol-rich lipid raft regions during ARV infection. Altogether, these results suggest that cellular cholesterol in lipid rafts plays a critical role in ARV replication.

Lipid rafts play an important role for maintenance of embryonic stem cell self-renewal.

Project description:Lipid rafts are cholesterol-rich microdomains of cell membranes that have a variety of roles in cellular processes including receptor-mediated signal transduction. Lipid rafts also occur in embryonic stem (ES) cells, but their role in ES cells is largely unknown. Therefore, we investigated the role of lipid rafts in the maintenance of ES cell self-renewal. In the present study, we observed that the presence of lipid rafts/caveolae. The results from sucrose gradient fractionation showed that the expression of glycoprotein 130 (gp130) and leukemia inhibitory factor receptor beta (LIFRbeta) was decreased by treatment with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (Mbeta-CD) but, interestingly, was not affected by caveolin-1 small interfering RNA (siRNA). In addition, LIF increased phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and Akt, and the expression level of c-Myc, which were attenuated by the pretreatment with Mbeta-CD. However, caveolin-1 siRNA did not influence LIF-induced phosphorylation of STAT3 and Akt, and expression of c-Myc. Treatment with Mbeta-CD and caveolin-1 siRNA decreased expression levels of Oct4 protein and Oct4, Sox2, FoxD3, and Rex1 mRNAs in normal culture conditions. Additionally, Mbeta-CD and caveolin-1 siRNA decreased the expression levels of cyclin D1 and cyclin E, and the proliferation index [(S + G2/M)/(G0/G1 + S + G2/M)] of ES cells. We conclude that lipid raft/caveolae structures play important roles in the self-renewal of ES cells.

Cholesterol-rich lipid rafts are required for release of infectious human respiratory syncytial virus particles.

Project description:Cholesterol and sphingolipid enriched lipid raft micro-domains in the plasma membrane play an important role in the life-cycle of numerous enveloped viruses. Although human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) proteins associate with the raft domains of infected cells and rafts are incorporated in RSV virion particles, the functional role of raft during RSV infection was unknown. In the current study we have identified rafts as an essential component of host cell that is required for RSV infection. Treatment of human lung epithelial cells with raft disrupting agent methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MBCD) led to drastic loss of RSV infectivity due to diminished release of infectious progeny RSV virion particles from raft disrupted cells. RSV infection of raft deficient Niemann-Pick syndrome type C human fibroblasts and normal human embryonic lung fibroblasts revealed that during productive RSV infection, raft is required for release of infectious RSV particles.

In vitro inhibition of Cyprinid herpesvirus-3 replication by RNAi.

Project description:Cyprinid herpesvirus-3 (CyHV-3) is an etiological agent of a notifiable disease that causes high mortality rates affecting both the common and koi carp Cyprinus carpio L. There is no current treatment strategy to save CyHV-3 infected fish. RNA mediated interference (RNAi) is an emerging strategy used for understanding gene function and is a promising method in developing novel therapeutics and antiviral medications. For this study, the possibility of activating the RNAi pathway by the use of small interfering (si)RNAs was tested to inhibit in vitro viral replication of CyHV-3 in common carp brain (CCB) cells. The siRNAs were designed to target either thymidine kinase (TK) or DNA polymerase (DP) genes, which both code for transcripts involved in DNA replication. The inhibition of viral replication caused by the siRNAs was measured by a reporter gene, termed ORF81. Treatment with siRNA targeting either TK or DP genes reduced the release of viral particles from infected CCB cells. However, siRNA targeting DP was most effective at reducing viral release as measured by qPCR.

Elevated levels of cholesterol-rich lipid rafts in cancer cells are correlated with apoptosis sensitivity induced by cholesterol-depleting agents.

Project description:Lipid rafts/caveolae are membrane platforms for signaling molecules that regulate various cellular functions, including cell survival. To better understand the role of rafts in tumor progression and therapeutics, we investigated the effect of raft disruption on cell viability and compared raft levels in human cancer cell lines versus their normal counterparts. Here, we report that cholesterol depletion using methyl-beta cyclodextrin caused anoikis-like apoptosis, which in A431 cells involved decreased raft levels, Bcl-xL down-regulation, caspase-3 activation, and Akt inactivation regardless of epidermal growth factor receptor activation. Cholesterol repletion replenished rafts on the cell surface and restored Akt activation and cell viability. Moreover, the breast cancer and the prostate cancer cell lines contained more lipid rafts and were more sensitive to cholesterol depletion-induced cell death than their normal counterparts. These results indicate that cancer cells contain increased levels of rafts and suggest a potential use of raft-modulating agents as anti-cancer drugs.

Protein-Rich Rafts in Hybrid Polymer/Lipid Giant Unilamellar Vesicles.

Project description:Considerable attention has been dedicated to lipid rafts due to their importance in numerous cell functions such as membrane trafficking, polarization, and signaling. Next to studies in living cells, artificial micrometer-sized vesicles with a minimal set of components are established as a major tool to understand the phase separation dynamics and their intimate interplay with membrane proteins. In parallel, mixtures of phospholipids and certain amphiphilic polymers simultaneously offer an interface for proteins and mimic this segregation behavior, presenting a tangible synthetic alternative for fundamental studies and bottom-up design of cellular mimics. However, the simultaneous insertion of complex and sensitive membrane proteins is experimentally challenging and thus far has been largely limited to natural lipids. Here, we present the co-reconstitution of the proton pump bo3 oxidase and the proton consumer ATP synthase in hybrid polymer/lipid giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) via fusion/electroformation. Variations of the current method allow for tailored reconstitution protocols and control of the vesicle size. In particular, mixing of protein-free and protein-functionalized nanosized vesicles in the electroformation film results in larger GUVs, while separate reconstitution of the respiratory enzymes enables higher ATP synthesis rates. Furthermore, protein labeling provides a synthetic mechanism for phase separation and protein sequestration, mimicking lipid- and protein-mediated domain formation in nature. The latter means opens further possibilities for re-enacting phenomena like supercomplex assembly or symmetry breaking and enriches the toolbox of bottom-up synthetic biology.

{alpha}V{beta}3-integrin routes herpes simplex virus to an entry pathway dependent on cholesterol-rich lipid rafts and dynamin2.

Project description:HSVs enter cells in a receptor-dependent [nectin1 or herpesviruses entry mediator (HVEM)] fashion by fusion of the viral envelope with plasma membrane (neutral pH compartment), by endocytosis into neutral or acidic compartments, or by macropinocytosis/phagocytosis. The cellular determinants of the route of entry are unknown. Here, we asked what cellular factors determine the pathway of HSV entry. CHO cells lack β(3)-integrin and the respective α-subunits' heterodimers. We report that, in the absence of α(V)β(3)-integrin, HSV enters CHO-nectin1 cells through a pathway independent of cholesterol-rich rafts and dynamin2. In the presence of α(V)β(3)-integrin, HSV enters CHO-nectin1 cells through a pathway dependent on cholesterol-rich rafts and dynamin2. HSV enters J-nectin1 and 293T cells through a neutral compartment independent of cholesterol-rich rafts and dynamin2. α(V)β(3)-integrin overexpression in these cells modifies the route of entry to an acidic compartment dependent on cholesterol-rich rafts and dynamin2, hence similar to that in α(V)β(3)-integrin-positive CHO-nectin1 cells. In some cells, the diversion of entry from an integrin- and raft-independent pathway to an acidic compartment requiring cholesterol-rich lipids rafts and dynamin2 is irreversible. Indeed, HSV cannot infect CHO-nectin1-α(V)β(3) cells through any compartment when the αvβ3-integrin-dependent pathway is blocked by anti-integrin antibody, anti-dynamin2, or anti-acidification drugs. We conclude that the αvβ3-integrin is a determinant in the choice of HSV entry pathway into cells. Because the pathway dictated by αvβ3-integrin is through lipid rafts, the platforms for a number of Toll-like receptors, current findings raise the possibility that αvβ3-integrin acts as a sentinel of innate immunity.

CyHV-3: the third cyprinid herpesvirus.

Project description:Common carp (including ornamental koi carp) Cyprinus carpio L. are ecologically and economically important freshwater fish in Europe and Asia. C. carpio have recently been endangered by a third cyprinid herpesvirus, known as cyprinid herpesvirus-3 (CyHV-3), the etiological agent of koi herpesvirus disease (KHVD), which causes significant morbidity and mortality in koi and common carp. Clinical and pathological signs include epidermal abrasions, excess mucus production, necrosis of gill and internal organs, and lethargy. KHVD has decimated major carp populations in Israel, Indonesia, Taiwan, Japan, Germany, Canada, and the USA, and has been listed as a notifiable disease in Germany since 2005, and by the World Organisation for Animal Health since 2007. KHVD is exacerbated in aquaculture because of the relatively high host stocking density, and CyHV-3 may be concentrated by filter-feeding aquatic organisms. CyHV-3 is taxonomically grouped within the family Alloherpesviridae, can be propagated in a number of cell lines, and is active at a temperature range of 15 to 28°C. Three isolates originating from Japan (KHV-J), USA (KHV-U), and Israel (KHV-I) have been sequenced. CyHV-3 has a 295 kb genome with 156 unique open reading frames and replicates in the cell nucleus, and mature viral particles are 170 to 200 nm in diameter. CyHV-3 can be detected by multiple PCR-based methods and by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Several modes of immunization have been developed for KHVD; however, fish immunized with either vaccine or wild-type virus may become carriers for CyHV-3. There is no current treatment for KHVD.
